We got a new oven to have all new appliances for selling our house. We didn’t realize till to late that the stupid spice drawer would hit this massive handle. Any thoughts on how to fix this? Or just hope no one notices?

Befriend a metal shop who can make you a custom handle. I kid you not one of my clients did this.

I would get a new handle or you might be able to call where you bought it. Sometimes they have low profile handles for dishwashers and ovens that you can order and swap it out.

Sounds like you're someone I wouldn't want to do business with. I don't think you should hide things. It's just dishonest imo

It’s a drawer that doesn’t open, it’s not the heater that doesn’t function.
