- We've cleaned a lot of really bad ovens. Steam cleaned them. Pumice stoned them. Simple Orange hand soap. The Pink Stuff. Bar Keeper's Friend. Baking soda and vinegar. Ammonia. Wrapped the oven in plastic wrap and more! But what's the fastest way to clean an oven?
But which method is our favorite today? Watch our newest oven cleaning video to find out! It took 45 minutes of actual cleaning time.
Supplies and Links
➡️ Oven cleaner, I like Easy Off fume free amzn.to/46Z7KZ3
➡️ Scraper with a long handle so you can reach inside the oven easier amzn.to/3MdvH6V
➡️ Dyson handheld vacuum cleaner (optional) amzn.to/3S2zJTs
➡️ Steel Wool #0000 amzn.to/3MaGqz2
Plastic Wrap
➡️ Best glass cleaner (smells good too) amzn.to/3S9An1n
Paper towels or microfiber cloths (like our favs amzn.to/3S9An1n). I prefer paper towels because the cleaner is so strong and don’t want it in my washing machine or to throw them away
➡️ Biodegradable cleaning gloves amzn.to/45Ax6eE
➡️ Oven Liner amzn.to/3FuOiYt
➡️ Pumice Stone with handle lvnta.com/lv_3...
My next goal is to see if I can find a less toxic oven cleaning solution that uses a paste or spray bottle instead of an aerosol. Also, I talk about why I don't like using the self cleaning oven feature.

As a Brit 🇬🇧 i have never seen an oven with the heating element showing. It must be so tricky getting into all the nooks and crannies. You did such a great job. 👍
It's typically on the top for our ovens....and these can also just be unscrewed
I am so glad I watched this--I learned an embarrasing amount of information from this video and now I want to go deep clean my oven 😂😂😂😂 Amazing!!!
That makes my day that it motivates you to do clean your oven!
Thank you for posting this. I followed your instructions to a T. I let the oven cleaner sit for 24 hours and it came off easily. Best oven cleaning video out of all the ones I've tried.
Definitely the most efficient method. Thanks for sharing!
I like the steamer method the best because it doesn't scratch or etch the porcelain enamel. We have a highend range with an iridescent dark blue porcelain enamel and it blings. 💎
Which steamer do you use (out of curiosity) and do you use an attachment? Love those blue ovens, they’re gorgeous!
You are "The Amazing Cleaning Expert"!!!🎉 Your video on using pumice stone for cleaning the oven was terrific and so..........useful! I currently do not have a self cleaning oven. I did not want to use any chemicals to clean it and sodium bicarbonate with vinegar was not enough. A lot of old residue from prior apartment owner's use. This pumice stone worked .oracles! The oven ic very clean and........spotless!
Thank you so much! Blessings to you and your loved ones!
Consider turning the breaker off to the oven and removing the heating element (two screws and unplug). Simply lift up and remove the oven door to make easier access. Get a soft knee pad for the floor.
I don’t usually remove oven doors because they’re heavy and it’s tough to work on them on the floor. To me, it’s easiest to leave them on. The screws of this element aren’t standard and again, since it isn’t my oven, and given the limited time we Harry to to work on it, I don’t want to break it. Thanks so much for sharing your tips!
Show us how Peter
Here’s a tip for your oven racks: while your oven is “soaking” over night, wrap your oven racks in wet newspapers and cover them with plastic so they stay wet. In the morning, use spray-on degreaser (I use hippy brands like Seventh Generation) before you scrub them clean.
I think the racks in the bathtub is a great way to clean racks. Have been doing it for ages.
I soak the racks in the tub w dawn dish soap, vinager and BORAX.. I also use that same solution on the shower glass.. butter... I clean eviction homes.. I've seen it all and Borax does a lot!!!
Thanks for the tip. I’ve tried different methods but not with Borax.
Great tips! Wire racks are easy when you use a cordless drill with a wire wheel attached.😅
What is you do get cleaner on your element
Try spraying the racks and trays with the oven cleaner and wrap in a plastic bag and let it sit overnight
Nice ❤
my broiler coil is smoking really bad. How do I clean it? I'm yet to find a video for it
For the racks, but in a tub with dishwasher pods and let them dissolve and do the hard work :)
Yes that's what I do, with hot water. Works great, may have to use steel wool a bit, but it softens the build up a lot.
Can I ask what sort of scraper? A metal one? Plastic one?
Remove the oven door for an easier reach, and you can clean those nooks and crannies. Take grates outside and spray with oven cleaner
I cleaned mine with just bicarbonate of soda and got a better finish even on the shelves
To clean oven racks easily soak in tub hot water, dawn dish soap and 2 to 4 bounce sheets let soak 2 hours. Use bounce sheets to wash the racks. They come out like new
woowo great advice ty!
Then clean out the greasy tub…..
I just found this channel today and I'm watching EVERYTHING - will the first episode of "Loved or Dead" be out soon? 😁
We have 3 episodes and are still finishing them. We’ll have an email list you can sign up for to be notified when they’re live. Thanks for asking, it’s certainly been a labor of love so far and a journey for us. But we’re excited to share it with everyone, hopefully mid November!
Thanks for great tips!😊 But Never wait this long! Try to maintain it like you would other monthly/quarterly chores. With that much ash/debris you may have fire hazard. ❤
Thanks for sharing, it really works.
Amazing
Looks easy enough. Fun fact it's actually refered to as "four aught' steel wool. Which is actually even weirder that it really should be naught. Since aught means all or everything. And naught means nothing. But aught is also used in place of zero
thank you. u are going to save me from the hard work.
on your other cooker videos you place ammonia in a dish, add the item then cover with saran wrap. would putting a bowl of ammonia uncovered into the oven then either close oven door or place saran wrap all over the opening
Does this work on gas stoves as well well
As someone who used to have a gas stove, I can confirm, yes, you can. However, if it's a self-cleaning oven, I've seen advice that says not to use an oven cleaner, because the fumes are harmful to the self-cleaning elements. I have no idea if that is true or not.
i was trying to find someone who had the same oven show how they clean the top part on the inside…. could you tell me how you get around the heating element? you can’t lift it up and it’s really the dirtiest part of my oven
Spray it and scrub with a wool pad #0000 grit. It’s hard to do which is why I don’t usually clean it. On the element, does it have screws so you can remove it? Or cover with foil and spray around the edges. Or a damp cloth on the element itself.
i think ill try to figure out how to remove it, thanks for the response!
Nice job
The easiest way to clean the oven racks is to put them in a lawn size garbage bag and put a couple cups of ammonia in the bag and let it sit for a day or two and then rinse off and all that mess comes right off 😮
I moved to a house and the stove was there i had spent my money bùying the place doing remodeling on inside, frig, washer & dryer never looked in the stove. 😢 I have never seen anything like it, I use a sander to remove all the years of burnt drippings, it was awful. I had to use it for a year until I could buy a new one.
get a garbage bag place racks in bag and spray leave over night
take racks out and just rinse, no scrubbing needed
Using the self-clean option on your oven basically ruins the oven IMHO. It takes a long time and my over was never the same afterward. Easy off is the best product. Spray everywhere, walk away for at least an hour then have lots of old cloths and a rinse bucket. It is a great idea to vacuum loose particles first - it saves time in the long run.
Line your oven bottom with aluminum foil.
I would love to know how to clean oven with the automatic clean oven button.
Ok you got it, I’ll find a dirty oven and try it while showing how to do it and see how well it does. Any details you want to me to be sure to get? Thanks for your feedback!
Be aware that a lot of repair folks will tell you it often damages the oven (or reduces its lifespan), uses huge amounts of power and is likely to set off all your smoke alarms 🫤
Better still, wipe it clean every time you use it.
Yes, so much easier to prevent a mess. Maybe I should do a video about that.
@@CleanFreakGermaphobe I would love to see that!
Just use the steam cleaner with the vinegar
WARNING: the self-cleaning mode is so hot for so long that it can damage electronic components........
Yes
Wow! That persons oven is mega 🤢 for that thick layer of burnt on stuff!
Now that you got most of it cleaned up you could have ran the self clean mode.
It’s confusing saying you are a clean freak but the oven was pretty filthy. Loved the ides tho
Not my oven…mine is very clean so it’s hard to demonstrate on it.
The secret to a clean oven is never neglect it for as long as they do. Obviously this oven hasn't been cleaned in a long long long time. There's no excuse for the condition of the oven being as filthy as they it is. Any excuse you come up with can be knocked out with a very logical explanation on how it could and should have been avoided.
That’s a give us Barabbas comment.
How do you let your oven get that disgusting to begin with? If that was mine, I would’ve thrown it out and bought a new one.
It’s funny when people say that because if you don’t clean your oven it won’t be long before the new one will be a mess and you’ll have to buy another oven. The solution is keeping it clean and not waiting until it’s bad but cleaning as you use it. However, we all have different priorities in life.
USE A SCRUB DADDY SPONGE!
Fastest way to clean an ELECTRIC oven
Using even a fume free oven cleaner is not a way I want to go. Doesn't anyone have a better way to clean your oven in a matter of hours?? Note..I would never let my oven get to this point too begin with.
wtf with that obnoxious loud music no! first and last video of yours ill be watching
🤣🤣🤣self clean😂no such thing.
That oven is disgusting!
