1/3d sheet pan: 15.5 x 10.5
I'm just realizing, I've never seen a 1/3 sheet pan.
1/4, 1/2, 1 -- constantly. 1/8, 2/3, 3/4 -- occasionally. But a 1/3? Never.
As for the oven, I suspect some of it is the US using different "standard" pans from everyone else. Once when I was daydreaming about a Miele XXL I was annoyed to realize that the pans it uses *look* like standard steam table pans, but they're sized to international "gastronorm" pans. Which are, of course, almost impossible to get affordably in the US.
The Anova is a custom design, but I bet you it's *based* on an existing oven design, and steam ovens are much more popular outside the US.
