Why? In the spring and fall I do it all the time, trailer is a little cold in the morning its time to make some coffee and as a side effect the heat takes the chill off. Throw some biscuits in the oven for breakfast and she warms right up. Running the oven to cut a little chill is no different then cooking something or using the oven as a warming tray with the door cracked open a little while finishing up a meal.
A little late to reply but I just saw this and find it hard to believe anyone could be so naive. :R A burning propane flame generates CO which can kill you ... recommend this practice and one could wake up dead one morning. :E There's a BIG difference between running a propane furnace which is vented to the outside world and using a stove / oven which is not externally vented for heating the interior of a camper. The difference is venting - whenever you run the stove / oven you want to vent the trailer by ensuring windows are open and the stove vent fan is venting any CO produced to the outside, not the inside where it can concentrate and ultimately kill you. :(
Cmon SoundGuy...really? So you're saying a camper is a bubble that is not made to run a stove or oven in? Sooo weird that campers all come with stoves....
