Magic Chef Oven Burner

Question

I have a very standard 3-burner magic chef oven and stove. Stove works great, but I'm not so sure about the oven. We don't have a huge interest in using the oven, but it would be nice to have it right. It seems that no matter what the temp setting is, the burner has the same flame size. We've considered baking a pizza in the oven on our next trip, which would probably work. But if we wanted to make some pancakes and keep them in the oven on the "warm" setting, that would not work.

Is this a common problem with these stoves, or is there a chance that I have a bad burner or some other malfunctioning part?

You should be able to adjust the temperature to what you want. If you have an over thermometer use it to see what is happening as you adjust the temperature.

You can't go by the temps on the dial and the oven regulates the temperature by turning the burner on and off, not by the size of the flame.

I would almost bet the burner is always the same, but the frequency of lit versus unlit would change.

That's the way it is suppose to work...flame size does not change...it will come on or go off as needed to maintain the temp you have set...

Using a heat sink as discussed many times on here works wonders in the RV oven.
