AFAIK almost any appliance labelled/presumed to be 220V in the US is actually 240V unless it was made before the 50s, because we aren’t allowed to have nice things (like accuracy)
Yes. The USA switched our mains voltage from 110/220 to 120/240 about 50 years. There is a tolerance built in (10%) so that if a circuit is actually running at 100 or 220 then its within specs. A 120v circuit can run anywhere from 108 volts to 132 volts and be within spec. Its a pet peeve of mine when people say 110/220.
Most electric ovens are. 220-240v anyway.
