Oven cleaning

[Inamoment]

Does any one know an oven cleaner that works and won't take my breath away? Aside from paying someone to do it, that won't happen.

Baking soda is worth trying. The first one only does the floor. I also have to be careful about physical effort, bending over and scrubbing might not go well.

Boil a pot of water pop in the oven shut door leave for a while .take the pot out and wipe it out ....if it's really bad a few pots of boiling water 🙄🙄

Really? I suspect my house is not as clean as yours. I'll give it a go.

Brillo pads ...then when it's cleanish wipe it over with a paste of bicarbonate of soda.

It doesn't look too good, but it makes it so much easier to clean next time.

In my experience the best cleaner is, as you would expect VERY expensive but, it does a reasonable job, smell is okay and although the cleaner has on a few occasions taken my breath away that's never happened whilst cleaning the over - the name of this wondrous cleaner is "Dee" ... my wife. And if she spots this post she will soon become an oven cleaning widow!! ;0)

I've always used brillo pads but the scrubbing, had become too physical for me so, I thought I'd try the bicarbonate of soda, mixed with water into a paste.

I wasn't expecting it to work but, it was worth a try. I just dabbed it all on and left it overnight.

I was gobsmacked at how easily the grease and grime wiped off the next morning. No scrubbing at all.

I didn't have any white vinegar so I just mixed a bit of Sarsons dark vinegar to a bit more bicarb to get the last stubborn bits off. It was a doddle. xx

I'll give it a go. In my last house there was an aga. On the plus side it didn't need cleaning inside, on the minus side it cost a fortune to run.

I use cream cleaner with a scourer it usually works leave it on awhile smear it on and then rub I don't use strong things now Dettol for floors

[Inamoment in reply to jane5]

I use water with s tiny bit of washing up liquid for floors

[onamission]

I think its called oven pride £3.99 the box contains a bottle of solution and a large plastic bag not much smell and the bag is for the oven racks. Amway is another oven cleaner which is good hope this helps

Astonish, no fumes, spray on leave, wash off later. I bought mine in the Poind Shop.

[Inamoment in reply to HampshireLass]

That sounds like my sort of cleaning. I used to use a Astonish product to clean the chrome lids on the aga. It worked really well and was the only thing I found I could use when the aga was hot.

Hi I use soda crystals no smell. I get some with hot water and leave in bottom of oven then soak the shelves in some solution in sink and you don't need a lot of elbow grease to get it clean xx

[Ergendl in reply to Angiegordon]

Yes, I use soda crystals too - not always easy to spot in the supermarket though as they're much cheaper than the branded rivals.

[Inamoment in reply to Angiegordon]

I use it for cleaning sink traps with some boiling water, gets rid of nasty smells.
