A steam oven 100 comprising a door frame 4 and a sill 10. The oven has a door 2 comprising a bottom rail 11 and a ramp 20. In use, activating the ramp raises a proximal end of the ramp until it is level with a floor the interior space (12,fig.3) of the steam oven, thus allowing a trolley to roll into the steam oven. Upon deactivating the ramp the proximal end of the ramp is lowered to below the level of door frame thus exposing a surface of the sill of the door frame with which a sealing element 18 on the bottom rail of the door can positively interact when the door is in a closed position. The ramp may be activated and deactivated using a pneumatic or hydraulic system. A sealing element (14,fig.3) may be provided on any of the sill, a head jamb 8 and at least one of side jambs 3,6 of the door frame. A method of loading and unloading a steam oven is also claimed.
