    Hate to break it to you, but most oven ranges in the US are 240V. They have 240V into the home which gets split into -120V and +120V lines with a neutral in the middle for regular appliances. Bigger appliances can get wired up for the full fat 240V experience

    I’m guessing its more to do with the size, ovens in the US are massive! Probably double the volume of a regular EU oven
