I think its sold with other names stamped on it too. Looks like this.. https://www.plessers.com/Amana/aly2280bds.htm Have continuously had problems with the pilot going out and the oven shutting down. Temperature control is also not accurate, but i have a Fluke multimeter that measures temperature for that. Wife bought all kinds of stuff for a big baking day today... Yup, cant keep her lit again. Ive set pilot high, med, low. Sometimes soots up the pilot temp sensor. WHAT IS A GOOD RELIABLE OVEN TO BUY?

The convection part works amazingly well for baking. I can fit up to a 13 pound turkey in it. The down side is that it uses lots of power and I either need to run my generator or be plugged into shore power.

Not thrilled at all about having to get a new stove. The biggest problem was getting a replacement to fit. You would think that the manufacturers would get together & agree on a few overall dimension sizes, but no, that is not the case. The best available was the same depth & width but not height, losing oven capacity. The DW is not happy with it. If buying a replacement do not assume anything. From the start know your dimensions.

A very light sanding with emery cloth. groundhogy • View posts PA Senior Member Joined: 12/17/2014 View Profile Offline Posted: 04/09/23 10:54am Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator With too high a pilot flame (yellow), it builds up a soot coating. Yes, ive been on that a number of times with wire brush and sometimes spray. pianotuna • View posts Regina, SK, Canada Senior Member Joined: 12/18/2004 View Profile Offline Posted: 04/09/23 11:19am Link  |  Quote  |  Print  |  Notify Moderator groundhogy, The regulator may need to be replaced. The pressure should measure 10 inches. The oven may heat more evenly with an unglazed tile added above the burner.
