Well, I don't think I ever saw a more stupid design...The oven has NO VENT!!! I had to study it a while to figure out how they got by without one...I discovered the silicone door seal only extended down the sides of the oven about 2 inches,this holds the door away from the range frame about 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch, the only thing I can figure out was they thought this would be enough of a vent, in theory it would be, but the heat and grease deposits along with moisture that would come up the side of the cabinet on the right and into the storage drawer on the left would be a real mess!!!..I decided it would be a good parts donor since it only cost 25.00, so I stripped it, it has a Robertshaw thermostat and 7 heat switches, the units are oddities, Not Chromalox as I initially thought, but Tuttle and Kift.  Surprise, they did make something besides Monotubes.
