I have a jenn air stove/ oven. It has many pieces to the stove that have to be cleaned. Because it has a grill feature, grease builds up extremely fast. The previous owner never cleaned the whole thing, just the surface, so I spent hours trying to make it sparkle.

I would most certainly ask. I had one friend that flat out refused any handed down items. She insisted on all new. (for reasoning I have not yet determined). But her loss was my gain, as I became pregnant and accepted all the great things she was offered, but refused. Most things were brand new.

i did pick a z name. it took a lot of convincing from my husband, as i am aware of the trendy factor. we took the idea of taking something you both love and finding a subtle reference to it. he is named after star trek. but we wouldn't have gone with something alien sounding like spock or too obvious like kirk or jean luc. and we also did not use the exact pronunciation of the original name. and most importantly we kept the spelling simple. there was probably 100 ways to spell it. we rarely if ever see it on a baby name site or book. but it has a familiar, ear pleasing, and natural sound to it.
