Looks like french door ovens are back, but with an internet link. And at a steep price. Being it's GE I wonder what will happen when E takes over.

I think that when Electrolux takes over they should offer it as a Frigidaire and in the customer's choice of turquoise, yellow, white or stainless. Might put some less clunky handles on it too . . .
Blodgett and others, I think, have offered French Door commercial convection ovens for a long time.

Ooouuuch...
I've always wondered about those french door ovens. They look cool but I cannot get around the fact that having two 350-450 degree door-sized pieces of metal opening out into the kitchen, at shoulder height for adults and head and face height for the little ones, seems like a good idea. I mean, I get a few burns every month on a normal drop down range oven door. Maybe I'm just clumsy but I would be burning my shoulders or face every other day on one of those. How do you open it to take things out without bumping on them?

Domestic french-door ovens have been around for a while, Viking has one as well as a couple of other manufacturers. Even one from Blue Star in pretty colors!

Yes Tom.
Blodgett has made Commercial Convection Ovens since I believe the 1960's.
I remember going to a Restaurant Equipment Show with my Dad. He couldn't tear me away from the Hobart Dishwasher Display.
That's when I saw my first Blodgett Convection Oven.
