>>419 They're a nightmare. They are on 24/7 and throw out a lot of heat which is why they are popular with people who live in big draughty farmhouses. They have 2 or more ovens but they are each at fixed temperatures, so they are very unresponsive. One low, one high etc. And the hot plates are the same - one low, one high. And if you use them too much the ovens start to cool down! They were designed in the 1930s and it shows.
