Abstract
A household appliance, such as an oven, with a front panel which extends substantially across the width of the front side of the household appliance. Control and/or display elements of the household appliance are assigned to the front panel. The front panel is an extruded metal section. In order to increase the stability of the front panel, the front panel extends, bent essentially uniformly about a vertical axis, over the width of the front panel in the shape of a segment of a cylindrical wall.
