Abstract: A gasket for a cooking appliance is positioned between a rear upswept section of the appliance and the cooktop surface. The gasket has a rigid section that is received in a gasket groove in the upswept section of the appliance and a flexible section that contacts the top surface of the cooktop surface. The gasket has a compressible gap that allows the gasket to seal to different length gaps between the cooktop surface and the gasket groove.
