I just got a new electric oven and range. It’s a slide-in. The oven makes a nasty chemical smell when I run it. The instructions say that’s normal and it should take around thirty minutes if running for it to stop.

I’ve run it for around eight or nine hours and it’s still making a stink.

Those of you who have gotten new electric ovens: how long until it stopped producing an odour?

    Did you remove the plastic protection foil from all surfaces?!

      I removed the packaging from all surfaces I can access without disassembling the stove.
