why stainless steel oven door gets hot on the outside when the oven is on?

I recently bought a Kenmore Range with an oven that has stainless steel on the outside. I was surprised to see that the oven door got very hot on the outside when oven is on. My 2-year old son almost touched it the other day. Anybody have such an experience or is it just the model I chose was bad?

Answers:
My Kenmore range does the same thing. It's poor design.
You can get a new oven or you can just keep your little one away from the kitchen when you're cooking (easier said than done, I know!)

I have a Kitchen Aid stainless double oven and
it is cool to the touch on the outside. Does not
even get warm. I would call Sears
