[Electronics-Talk] Accessible stoves / ovens?

[Andrews, David B (DEED)]

Well, it depends on what you mean by accessible.  A few stoves have knobs for burners, but virtually all ovens nowadays have a flat panel where you must press what you want. However most behave pretty well, so they can be labeled with Braille or tactile markings.

My oven, for example:  I press bake, then I have to press plus or minus once, and it is at 350 degrees.  Plus and minus each add or subtract 5 degrees, so I can get what I want. You can't use the timer. There are choices for broil, and off also.

The best thing is to go an appliance store, or a place like Best Buy, or Home Depot, or Loews, and make a salesperson show you what they have. You may pay a little more, but you have a better idea of what you are getting.
