Abstract

A domestic cooking range provides an upswept cook top which promotes ease of cleaning in combination with a vent stack which exhausts flue gases from the oven through an elongated opening between the upswept portion and a control panel on the backguard. A deflector is provided to prevent the flue gases from impinging upon either the control panel or the cook top.
