>Definitely talking about Force 10 propane stove (no experience with electric). Looking at their website, seems all new Force 10's have "fold-away" oven doors as opposed to a conventional hinge-down door. The door has an articulated hinge and tucks along the floor of the oven, thus covering what would be the burner. To accommodate, Force 10 moved the burner to the back of the oven creating uneven heating. Our Force 10 propane stove has the fold-away door, but it slides down into a space under the whole stove unit. It does not slide over the oven floor at all. The reason I know this, besides the fact that we have one, is that when I recently thought I'd have to replace the thermocouple on the oven burner, it was obvious that to get to the underside of the burner to remove the thermocouple, in other words access the stove from below, I'd have to slide the stove out about halfway because opening the door and sliding it out of the way blocked access to the UNDERSIDE of the oven, not the inside. The piping and connections for the oven burner fit in the gap between the folded-away door and the underside of the unit. Think about your description for a moment- if the door did as you claim and slides away into the oven covering the burner, what happens to the surface of that door if you open the oven with the burner lit, which is a common practice when cooking. The door would end up directly above the lit burner. Not a good idea. No, the door slides away under the entire unit, and doesn't interfere with the oven burner placement at all, which in our unit is in the middle of the bottom of the oven. C.
