An over-voltage control device for a clothes dryer including an electrical heater coupled to an alternating current power supply is provided. The device includes a switch device adapted to connect and disconnect the power supply from the heater, and a micro-controller coupled to the switch device. The switch device is responsive to said micro-controller, and the micro-controller is configured to operate said switch to maintain an effective heater voltage below a predetermined threshold to avoid tripping of a circuit breaker.

A light column assembly including a hollow tube, a first endcap, a first optical lighting film, a second optical lighting film, and at least one light source is provided. The hollow tube includes a rear wall having an inner surface, a front wall extending opposite the rear wall, a first end, and a second end. The tube front wall also has an inner surface. The first endcap is coupled to the tube first end and includes a reflective inner surface. The first optical lighting film overlies the tube rear wall. The second optical lighting film overlies the tube front wall. The light source is coupled to the tube second end and positioned to direct a light beam having a predetermined beam spread angle toward the first endcap such that the light source light is substantially evenly emitted from the tube through the tube front wall.

An over-the-range type oven incorporating a bottom plate having substantially triangular shaped openings, or inlets, is described. In one embodiment, the bottom plate has a first, interior surface and a second, range-facing surface. First and second triangular shaped openings, or inlets, extend through the bottom plate, and each triangular shaped opening has a first leg, a second leg and a third leg. The bottom plate may further include a first air guide positioned adjacent at least one of the first opening legs and extending from the bottom plate first, interior surface for directing air flow through the first opening and into the oven cabinet, and a second air guide positioned adjacent at least one of the second opening legs and extending from the bottom plate first, interior surface for directing air flow through the second opening and into the oven cabinet.
