The HBL8642UC is an 800 Series double wall oven in black stainless: two 4.6 cubic foot cavities in a 52 1/16 inch opening at 8,600 watts, with soft-close doors. Two soft-close doors mean two damper assemblies, and in practice they wear at different rates because households use the upper oven far more than the lower one. A top door that has started slamming while the bottom one still closes gently is completely normal wear rather than a manufacturing problem.
