Hide and Slide Oven Doors

[Diat60]

Does anyone watch "The Great British Bake Off" on PBS? One feature of their kitchen is the Hide and Slide oven door on their stoves. Here's a video which should make your mouth water. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n7Rzxs1mSLU. But then I have to warn you that you can't buy this stove this side of the Atlantic! I am SOOOO envious.

I WANT it!

It's made by Neff whose sister company here is Bosch. But apparently Bosch have no intention of introducing it. Time for a letter writing campaign? Imagine not having to contort oneself to reach the back of the oven. Imagine not having to reach over a huge door to take out heavy roasts or birds. So much safer and easier to use.

My new cooker I bought about a year ago. the door opens and closes from side to side, which is a great improvement on the "pull down" doors!

What a good idea! I want one of those. That door that just hangs in front of the oven doesn't make getting a 22 lb turkey out very easy.

What a great idea!! Love it.
