No its electric.
Could be a US low voltage issue? Since im European.

Unforeseen@sh.itjust.works 7 months agoIs it gas? Getting an electric oven to 450 usually takes 15 minutes.

It’s ovens run on 240v, they probably just need to replace the heating element
But my EU oven runs on 380V-16A…
My Finnish oven runs on 380V too, although it’d hard-wired insted of a weird plug.
That’s awesome. You could probably run a proper kiln in place of your oven if you felt like it.
Mines 5 phase. My Dad got because he works at oven.
It’s possible he’s running it at 120v if the electrician did a bad job in the kitchen. 400v ovens are fairly common where I live and can run on 240v in a pinch (even if it’s not recommended).
Not that I know such things, but I think 120V wouldn’t even fully heat up an oven.
Ah Yeah maybe, Canadian but North America as a whole is the same standard of 240v for ovens. It could also be I’ve only used lower end ovens lol.
That’s probably true. Our electric kettles heat up much slower too for the same reason.
The only large appliances that aren’t running 220-240v in the US are the refrigerator and dishwasher .Ovens, washing machines, tumble dryers, furnaces, and water heaters are all on 240 volts.
In Europe, at least my oven is hooked up to 3 phase 400V. That’s more than the 240 max you get in the US.
450F takes my older electric oven less than five minutes, jeeeeez
My oven won’t go higher than 275.
OP is talking about Fahrenheit, but didn’t say so for whatever reason. Most ovens I’ve seen also max out around 275 Celcius.
That’s not even an over that’s like… a warm box
275° is enough to 3D print most plastics.

I thought you guys had 240v circuits precisely for this kind of load? On a decent 30a 230v circuit (they generally don't use anywhere near 30a though) here in Europe it takes considerably less than that. I'd say mine takes 5-8mins for 230c (which is around 450f) and it has a rated power of 3500w.

Most of our ovens aren’t hooked up to 240v
scutiger@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Most electric ovens are. 220-240v anyway.
force@lemmy.world 7 months ago
AFAIK almost anything called 220V is actually 240V unless it was made before the 50s
bitchkat@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I’ve never seen an electric oven that wasn’t 240 volts.
bitchkat@lemmy.world 7 months ago
My Beko oven takes about 25 minutes to preheat to 450. Yes, its 240 volts.

I guess it likely comes down to power rating, then. Also, with our old oven it used to take around 2x the time the current one does. That was just because the seal on the door was old and worn.
