The HBE5451UC was a 24 inch built-in oven with a 2.8 cubic foot cavity at 3,300 watts, offering bake, convection bake, convection multi-rack, a special baking setting and defrost. Ovens in this format tend to be installed in very tight columns, and the commonest installation fault we find on them is a cutout that was made to the minimum dimension with no allowance for the trim. The oven then sits under compression, which stresses the door frame and eventually shows as a door that will not seal.
