My oven can't be left on. You always have to dial in a duration for how long it should be on, along with mode and temperature. Timer runs out, it turns off. It's a good safety feature.,

Unfortunately being used to that, every time I've used someone else's oven, I've forgotten to turn it off.

I do same with hobs now. My induction hob turns off when you remove the pan for more than 30s. I now leave hobs on when at others.

Better to be safe than sorry. That 0.0001% of the time where you actually do forget is enough to destroy a good chunk of if not your entire home.

Depends on whether you store petrol in your oven

Ive left on one oven plate over night one time. I had luck nothing stood on it. Now i never stack anything on them, i think this is a huge improvement safetywise.
