I have a GE Electric stove which uses the following switches :wb23k5055 wb23k5056.

I cannot find these anywhere, I had one offered for about $90 !

What replacement switches can I use ?

These are for the Electric heating elements of the stove.

Thanks in anticipation.

These infinite switches are rather expensive. I think the parts cost for the GE range is rather high. Does it make sense to replace the whole unit with a stand-alone stove with an oven ? The stand-alone range is only about $80 mor ethan the cost of the 4 switches.

Other than the size of the unit, what else do I need to look out for ?

Try to get non digital controls. I just found info for you I do not set the prices.
