Hint heat the oven at a low 200 degrees just to warm it up and shut off oven now use the dawn dish detergent. Let set for a while and use a Brillo pad. Works well. Use a scraper on the glass door.
I just used DP to clean my oven. It did a really good job. (LOTS of rinsing and wiping to remove the bubbles!) I used a razor blade to scrape off the black gunk before I used the cleaner. You can scrape while the cleaner is on, also. : )
If you have air that comes out of vent over the top oven that upper oven may well be a convection oven, and the bottom oven a regular oven. Also if it makes it any easier your doors probably come off. You should be able to find a RU-vid video that shows you how to take them off but it’s just pulling down on the little silver clips where they attach to the oven itself and it’ll lift right off! I like to line the bottom of my oven with either aluminum foil or they even make an aluminum “oven liner pan” that you can buy and put in there. After watching your video I’m definitely gonna be trying the dawn power wash!
My mom would have 100% Agreed with you, that was her stain remover when she did laundry , it is the only thing she used, she'd take the bottle from the kitchen to the living room where she'd already put the dirty laundry baskets, and go through the laundry while watching her shows, just dawn and a old tooth brush , she really only used the toothbrush on thicker items and jeans if it was just t shirts she'd just rub the material together. and then just regular laundry soap in the washer - not even name brand and stains always came out
I have never even considered vacuuming my oven, this is awesome. I just bought a battery operated shark that has a removable smaller vacuum too so I will be doing this.
My aunt would put the oven racks in a large trash bag and add sudsy ammonia. Then she would seal the bag and the lay the bag on its side for a few hours. She said they would clean up like new. I never tried this, because of the ammonia smell, but she swore it worked.
So I did this before watching this video (and watched this video while my oven was soaking in this product). While the oven is fairly clean I don't recommend this product for cleaning ovens. It's the next day and my house smells like burning chemicals as the product must not have rinsed well from the oven. I've now cleaned it out with vinegar and it's still stinking up my house.
To add to this... my oven gasket is full of soap (as is the insulation inside the oven door) my oven is ruined because of this cleaner. I don't recommend it for ovens because it's soapy and oven cleaner is not. If you do go ahead anyway do not get this on your gasket or in any crevice that can't be rinsed out. Do yourself a favour and dont use this in the oven. Also, it is not "non toxic" it is just different toxins from oven cleaner.
@@ellis0175 Hi. Yes but it took a really long time. For me the cleaner got into the door of the oven (which has insulation much like your wall) as well as on the fiberglass seal so I had to tear it apart and clean those things. Even after all of that it took months for the smell to go away but eventually it does.
@@melissadorsey834 omg my mom helped me and cleaned my oven like this and I have not been able to get the smell out for months!!!! I was watching this video to find out a solution.. 😭
Uhhh! I just did this, too! I found a container that fit my oven racks perfectly. I filled it with hot water and let the soak in hot, hot water for 30 minutes. Then I added ammonia. Let it sit another 30 minutes. They cleaned up sooo easy after soaking. Oh, and I had a scraper to get off the hard crusty stuff. Worked like a charm. Maybe put layer of foil in the bottom for easy cleanup?
For me, the racks are the hardest to clean. However, when I was in a rental, I put the racks in the bathtub with dryer sheets. It really helped remove the grease.
Wow that worked better than all the Baking Soda -vinegar DIY Cleaners. A tip to get those built up bits off - wet a pumice stone and run over those spots it'll come off and be all clean.
NOT A GOOD IDEA TO USE PUMICE. This WILL SCRATCH YOUR OVEN...... Best way is to follow your Oven instructions. Using the Self Cleaning oven is the best way. If no Self Cleaning Oven use your basic pot and pan detergents.
I always take this baking tray out of the bottom of the oven and spray it outside. Then I'll put the bounty on the bottom and spray the sides of the oven and wait.
@@SharingOurLife but the only problem, you don't use it like the label says, I mean without water and scrubbing. By doing scrubbing and adding water, you have better results then what they recommended, so it's the point of buying their product not to scrub and saving water. It's totally a false advertise and doesn't worth to buy it if you think not to use water and arm power
Great idea, works wonderful on pans, I wonder if heating the oven a little might help get the stuff off. I’m going to try it. My oven is way worse. Lol
I tried this one spray in my oven and the smell does not go away! I used bread and vinegar and it is getting better but to be honest baking soda and vinegar act even better!
I don’t care for the baking soda in the vinegar they were cleans well it takes longer, and I feel it’s more effort and it leaves more particles and debris afterwards though I have really bad asthma and the easy off works well but I can’t use it because I can’t breathe. I’m looking for other solutions.
You should NEVER mix vinegar, which is an acid, to soap, which is a base. You are neutralizing the Dawn. I you want to use vinegar (not sure what for), use it AFTER you remove the soap. I hope you are NOT mixing baking soda (alkaline) with vinegar (acid) as well. If you do, you are just cleaning with water, H2O. The fizzing is the chemical reaction of the two neutralizes them and the byproduct is WATER, H2O. When one wants to use hacks and/or DIY recipes, make sure you have a basic understanding of the why cleaning products have varying pH levels that are specific to the type of need the product was intended for. Alkaline (soap/baking soda) solutions are better at cutting through dirt, grease, proteins, oils, and other organic items. Acids (Vinegar/Citric acid) are better for removing calcium, rust, and other minerals. Knowing the pH can come in very handy.
Whenever I have scorched food on a pan, I sprinkle the scorched area with baking soda, then boil water with some vinegar in it, and pour it in. By the time it cools off, the bubbling will usually have loosened the burned area.
Never put foil in the bottom of the oven. Target sells oven liners very cheaply. Use that instead. After one side gets dirty, wipe it off and flip it over.
How come you don’t line the bottom of your ovens with foil. It would make clean ups so much easier. And all you have to deal with are the sides of the ovens.
@@SharingOurLife , oh, well you can line a rack with foil and place it at the bottom level, it will still catch any drippings, anything to avoid cleanups, I say.
Did you have a hard time rinsing it out after? I’ve rinsed my oven I swear 3-4 times and I haven’t been able to use it yet because it starts to smoke when I try to pre-heat it :(
I just cleaned my toaster oven last night. It stinks! I think I used too much Powerwash and haven't been able to clear off all of it from the oven surface. Going to try cleaning/rinsing with that water/vinegar mix today. I must have used a half roll of paper towels soaked in water trying to get the Powerwash off. UGH! Any others ideas are *truly* appreciated!
I’m totally confused, as self cleaning ovens are supposed to eliminate all this scrubbing and work? Mine cleans up well using the self cleaning function.
You might just need to wipe it down a couple more times. Mine smelled for about a min, then went away. Probably just burned off any of the soap that might have been left on..
Ok this may be the stupidest question but reading the comments half the people ruined their oven trying this and got stuck with a horrible smell so why not just use a can of oven cleaner? Truly curious, it's designed for cleaning ovens.
It’s one of the best cleaners I’ve ever found. Cleans greasy messes the best. I used it to clean a deep fryer and it looked almost new. Use it to clean the rotisserie attachment on my grill and it’s amazing. Rotisserie still looks new too.
That's funny.hiw u will knw if the dawn spray really works if u spray or use ur own solution for cleaning?much better if u use first the dawn spray..does make sense?lol
I can honestly advise not to use this product. I've been trying to get rid of the soapy surface for the past hour. Just rinsing away. Don't use baking soda either, you end up with a bigger mess to clean.
So, what do you use? I have a self-cleaning oven, but too many spills to take a chance on running it until I do at least one deep clean first (then use self-clean for maintenance). I know you can't ever use chemicals to clean a self-cleaning oven unless you plan on never using that function again. What option is there besides baking soda?
@@gibsongirl2100 It really doesn't seem like you have a choice other than, cleaning vinegar and water or this. I am at a loss because I am in the same boat with you.🤦🏽♀️
I don't understand those women who let the oven get so dirty. Especially in the new kitchen. Then, the soiled oven must be sprinkled and scrubbed several times. What is connected with the destruction of the enamel in it.
I always use Foil on the bottom of my oven when I'm going to bake something that will be very greasy. Also if baking and you know you may have some overflow it works great. I even use it when I'm using the Convection Oven. It stays flat and works. NO MESS To clean up. Just recycle the foil when done. You are going through an awful lot of work. It looks like you don't clean up after each use. Shame on you. Your oven looks very bad. Sorry but you would not have this issue if you cleaned your oven after each use. (( (You never cleaned the sides of the oven))). Where does the air blow out from the bottom oven?
Lol I am definitely not going to clean my oven after every use. And my oven says on the bottom of each level, to not put foil down. So that’s why I don’t do that. Shame on you for being rude to someone you don’t even know!!
Criticism is one thing, being completely rude and nasty to people because you are behind a screen is not ok! Could have just left the suggestion of the foil, cause that’s what you do. Be kinder to people!
