The KEBS278SSS belongs to KitchenAid’s US wall oven catalogue. No published specification for this model was recovered, so there is no dimension or capacity quoted on this page. A number lifted from a sibling model would be worse than silence. It was on KitchenAid’s US product site from November 2010 to February 2013 and gone after that.
KitchenAid appends a two-digit production-revision code to the base number on the rating plate, and the codes actually observed for this model are KEBS278SSS04. A plate reading one of those is still a KEBS278SSS; the suffix identifies which production revision you have, and it occasionally decides which version of a part fits. That puts a KEBS278SSS roughly ten to fifteen years into service, the point at which the door seal, the hinges and the heating elements tend to need attention. Being out of production, a KEBS278SSS has its parts position checked at the outset rather than after a diagnosis.
