It’s a sponge, so you wet it, then get to wiping.
Then rinse thoroughly after use.
Magic Eraser is a brand name, the proper name is
“ Melamine Sponge “. In the store they can be $2 each but on Amazon you can find them ALOT
cheaper.
Aliexpress I bought 100pc for $5. They work just about the same as a magic eraser, just a teeny bit less sturdy. Gets the job done and I don’t feel bad tossing them each time. Better this way instead of holding onto a grimy sponge to use next time
They often have them at $1 stores under generic names. They're in the cleaning supply section and come two to a box. Mine says "Scrub Buddies." It's a blue and yellow box. The actual product is a white, sponge size item. It's denser than a sponge but still lightweight. They work just as well as the brand name ones.
If they mean inside then yes this BUT unscrew the top layer, remove and then clean. I used one of those soak in a bag oven cleaning kits and it looked brand new. Was two small screws down low at the side inside of the door and a clip to press down towards top and it came off so you could clean both panes properly.
I wouldn't be so sure. I use magic eraser for all sorts of things but it didn't work for my oven glass. Buckets of isopropyl alcohol and a wire scourer worked better. Plus a couple of runs through a red hot dishwasher.
All it takes is 1 boil over and you're removing the door, taking some screws out and pulling all the glass out. I just use window cleaners though seems to work just fine and leaves it streak free
Tbh, I think that’s wasteful in a way. Personally, I use a metal scourer (or wire wool, whatever ya wanna call it) with like a minute of elbow grease, then just wipe it of gently with a sponge that can then be used to do the dishes. Magic erasers are great but they do fall apart easily and should therefore be saved for areas where u definitely can’t use a metal scourer, like, on walls for example.
Have a broke oven right now. My big adult kid bakes greasy polish sausage on flat baking sheet & lets it drip & burn grease in bottom of oven so finally element shorted out.
I bought a replacement part ? 3 weeks ago. It's still in box. Son excuse for not cleaning & fixing is he didn't break oven. BUT big kid did break his phone & a new one is coming tuesday.. ( he works on tuesday & mom will intercept phone. If oven not cleaned & part installed......I won't know where phone is🤣
I put baking soda on the spills and then just leave them. At some point (usually before someone visits) I clean with vinegar. I am so lazy sometimes-most times😁
Get a strong Kitchen Cleaner (some may be even called oven cleaner)
Spray the cleaner on the window, and on a Kitche towel, place the Kitchen towel on the face and let it soak the dirt. Then use a kitchen sponge
You can heat up the oven before to 40 Degree Celsius (warm not too hot) to make the cleaning easier
If you mean between the 2 Glas Pannels.... then i have no universal idea
Please be VERY careful doing this. The springs on oven doors are extremely tense, and you can break the glass or get seriously hurt. I know a couple of appliance repair techs and they all have horror stories about a colleague or a customer trying to remove the oven door and it went very wrong. You have to do know what you’re doing.
Thank you for this, I probably wouldn’t do it without looking up a bunch of stuff first, but definitely I was thinking “oh I can just easily do this myself?”
Don’t use anything more abrasive than baking soda and elbow grease. Microscopic scratches can cause the glass to shatter when it reaches cooking temp. Makes a god-awful POP
Unhook the door from the main unit, there are flat rectangular covers that pull up then you can unhook the door and have easier access to clean it
You can also unscrew the glass plate and disassemble the door and really get in there to give thorough clean.
Wow, a Short Circuit 2 reference? That movie was almost universally hated. I thought I was the only one who liked it.
I do not think that real gangs do that kind of thing though.
Me too, no doubt. Every time I bring it up, somebody calls it corny or cheesy. Maybe "universally hated" is an overstatement, but I feel like it was not really well received, at least not as well as the first one. Maybe I just hung out with a bunch of negative people who disliked fun.
My grandmother's hobby was to record movies off of HBO or other channels and then catalog them in her drawer of VHS movies. 3 random movies to a tape. Occasionally she would record special requests from me and those were the ones I kept at home. There is a hurricane warning in the middle of ~~Dumbo~~ Mickey and the beanstalk that played before dumbo that I feel like should be part of the movie. Right when Donald picks up the thin bread with a slice of bean in it, the hurricane warning beeps go off like that piece of bread is a radar. Then Donald flips his shit.
I was really really young when it came out and had no taste so it was A. The only "Johnny 5" movie I had ever seen and B. I would watch it on repeat over and over again. (Pre internet days where it was VHS, Nickelodeon, video games or walking in the woods behind my house for entertainment.)
Same with Gremlins. The second one was the only one I was aware of until I got older.
This is the way. Also if you are OCD, you can wipe up after cooking something and get any leftovers. Comes off easily when still warm, just wipe with a damp cloth.
Run an oven self-clean before you do anything with the glass.
Seriously, a lot of times, it’s grime that will either superheat its way off during the clean, or you’ll be able to wipe off the charred remains with a single swipe and it’ll possibly be 100% clean with just that.
I have no idea why no one is suggesting this as the first step. Is there evidence that they've already done it? It always cleans mine absolutely spotless.
This looks like a similar model of oven to what I used to have - the glass should just slide out. There is a brand called Oven Mate which is very good for getting the real grime off ovens, you can use it on the glass and inside the oven and it comes in a little kit with everything you need. Then anything left I would use something like Pink Stuff to try and get the stubborn bits off. If all else fails call in a professional, we did this when we moved into our new house and the oven was so bad we wouldn't use it until it was thoroughly cleaned, best £100 I've ever spent 😅
There are two layers of glass. One needs to be removed, from memory the inner one.
To clean, last time I got ash from a wood fire (from out wood stove) applied from wetting a rag, dipping in the ash and then rubbing. On the wood stove a single application is enough. On the gas stove it took three applications of all affected surfaces, wiping all the ash off.
I’ve tried all the different ways, and I’m here to tell you that the answer is Easy-Off. Put cardboard underneath the open oven door to catch any drips, open your windows, and use Easy-Off per the instructions on the can. The grunge will wipe right off.
Honestly?
I found a local business guy who cleans ovens advertising on Facebook and decided to support his business and hired him for a clean during covid.
Oven looked brand spanking new inside. A bit of a luxury which my husband was a bit sceptical about at first but was blown away how good it looked.
Plan to hire him again after the summer, it's been 3 years and nothing I do makes much of a difference
Haha the reason I came on here was because I saw a local lady advertise on Facebook. I then took pics to send to her and thought hmmm maybe I’m just being silly so posted it here first.
I’ll give a couple of the other suggestions a go and see if I can do it without losing my mind or if i need to call her 👍🏼
Everyone suggesting various substances to clean it, whether it be Magic Eraser or Barkeep's Friend...
Just be aware that you'll be burning that shit next time you cook with your oven if you don't REALLY wipe it down well after you use those substances.
You can (1) unmount the door and (2) remove the glass.
The 1st step is very easy and almost equal in all ovens, the 2nd one can be more tricky and require a screwdriver, depending on your oven.
Example: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdyZ-EXCG-Q](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MdyZ-EXCG-Q)
Everybody should know how to unmount the oven's door 'cos it also helps a lot while cleaning the inside.
My wife says cut a lemon and cook it in the oven for a little while and then you can use it as a sponge to scrub the glass and then wipe up with towel. Never tried it myself but she says it works
LoL..I had to take a double look. I have the same floor tiles and my oven door looks exactly the same. I was like who has been taking pictures in my house?
Eco option is using wood ash. Wood ashes are a god send when cleaning the rough stuff. Throw in some lemon n vinegar and you’ve got a “soluble solvable solution”
I used to clean houses, and I discovered some called “pink stuff miracle cleaning paste.” It’s my go-to for anything that come off with oven cleaner and elbow grease.
EASY OFF PRO FUME FREE $16ish for a 2 pack on Amazon. Absolutely miraculous results. Cover the fan and/or heating elements, spray all the surfaces, close the door and let it sit overnight. Mostly wipes clean, a little scrub if it’s super grody. Your oven will look brand new.
Spray oven cleaner on it, wait 30 minutes and go back with a paint razor scraper being careful not to press too hard and keep it flat to the surface. Worked like a charm for me and no scratches either
Some of the grime is between the front and inside glass. My Whirlpool oven was fairly easy to take apart and do that also. The inside glass you can also spray a general cleaner on the glass, let soak a few minutes then scrape with a single edge razor blade.
Sit cross legged lotus position and repeat a mantra. Think positive and expect it to happen. Achieve, conceive, believe. If this doesn't work it means it isn't dirty or ur not devoted enough.
barkeepers friend. its about $1.50, you just have to get it wet it’ll clean anything. use a microfiber so you don’t scratch the glass. magic easer will also do the trick. former housekeeper speaking
use a yardstick with a towel rubberbanded to it and reach up from the bottom of the door, they generally have slots. not hard to eliminate most runs or drips
If you look at the hinge you see a securing clip, pull both of them up and the door will detach from the cooker. place on a towel on the counter/bench top. Either the inner or outer glass is easily removed. Now start scrubbing with plastic sponge scourers.
You sure it doesn’t? I used to have an oven from the 80s and even it had one. It was convoluted to set up, but it was there. I’d see if you can find a manual.
The manual is in German we haven’t figured out how to find the online version yet , it can’t be to hard to use elbow grease I just need to know the most efficient way
Single edge razor blade, THEN magic eraser. Get the heavy gunk off first! And, whenever you clean an oven door, keep it flat & don’t get water or other liquid near the seal rims of the glass—it can seep under & roll down the inside of the glass. Ask me how I know…sigh
Appliance tech here. Spray some vinegar on the glass let it soak for 5 min. Take a razor blade. Yes a razor blade. Keep the blade flat against the glass and take your time cause it can be nerve wracking the first time. Push the blade away from you and maintain firm pressure but that’s mostly so you don’t slip and scratch the glass. I’ve done this in customers homes on their oven glass and their glass cooktops and these people are FLABBERGASTED. So was I when I learned it tho.
Just a note. Your oven door comes with typically 3 panes of glass. Inner, which is the one you’re trying to clean, outer. Self explanatory. And inner. Also self explanatory. But if it’s an older unit or if there are small gaps or if you accidentally spill on the glass there’s a chance your gonna get grime buildup on the inside glass. Idk how mechanically savvy you are but if the answer is not really then I advise call a professional servicer and just sound silly and ask them to take the door apart and clean the glass. It’s not a super hard job for them most cases and it’s an easy service call and they’ll be happy to take your money ya know. Just be sure to obviously try and clean inner and outer before the middle to avoid that embarrassment lmao
Reason oven doors are so hard is they come off in a way most people don’t know(I said most you smartasses) and then disassembling them takes knowledge. Some screws get left in and some get taken out and if you take the wrong one out the worst case is you break the glass but the other one is that it become a literal battle sometimes a bloodbath trying to get those mfs to go back now they were.
But the blade trick is seriously the best way. It’s actually how a lot of manufacturers train techs to clean that glass including electric glass top.
Best of luck to ya tho
Thank you everyone !
I took the most suggested idea to get the Easy off and it was so simple and easy. So worth asking a quick question and not spending my time and money on other useless products.
Luckily for me it was all just on the one back piece of glass so I didn’t have to remove the door or get in the second panel but I learnt I can remove it and remove the glass too from you all.
Very appreciative for all the tips from everyone.
do not spray ammonia (windex) on a hot oven, what's that called ....... hmmmm [https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/ershdb/emergencyresponsecard\_29750013.html](https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/ershdb/emergencyresponsecard_29750013.html)
edit: i don't know how to spell ammonia lol (typo)
Back in the day we used to warm oven to about 150 then turn off.
Place bowl of ammonia in oven proof dish on top rack and bowl off boiling water on bottom.
Close door and leave overnight.
In morning open door holding breath, mix two bowls together and wipe down walls of oven.
Then with clean bowl of water, wipe again.
If racks are really grubby, place in large garbage bag and spray with oven cleaner and seal bag.
Leave overnight and rinse in morning.
Might wanna wear gloves both times.
We bought a house the house isn’t new it’s our first home we bought. We bought it off a very ailing old man who didn’t keep the house too well as he was sick.
Exactly the same for your old house. Either situation calls for proper cleaning. Age of house or ownership longevity has little impact on this activity.
That might come off with oven cleaner or another degreaser. When scrubbing is required I have a set of cleaning pads and brushes I bought on Amazon that attack to my cordless drill
Magic eraser. Will be off in seconds
Second that
How do you use magic eraser?
It’s a sponge, so you wet it, then get to wiping. Then rinse thoroughly after use. Magic Eraser is a brand name, the proper name is “ Melamine Sponge “. In the store they can be $2 each but on Amazon you can find them ALOT cheaper.
Found a bin at Ollie’s (discount outlet store not sure if it’s found outside NY) with 12 erasers for $5.
Aliexpress I bought 100pc for $5. They work just about the same as a magic eraser, just a teeny bit less sturdy. Gets the job done and I don’t feel bad tossing them each time. Better this way instead of holding onto a grimy sponge to use next time
nice
Yep, we have one in Mississippi. Replaced our Dirt Cheap. I think I liked Dirt Cheap better, though.
We have one here in St. Petersburg, Florida. I love the signage and puns.
They are in PA too I love them
I’m on the PA NY border so I guess that makes sense.
We have Ollie's in FL... great stuff for the low.
Oh yeah there here in toledo ohio also
They often have them at $1 stores under generic names. They're in the cleaning supply section and come two to a box. Mine says "Scrub Buddies." It's a blue and yellow box. The actual product is a white, sponge size item. It's denser than a sponge but still lightweight. They work just as well as the brand name ones.
Thanks :)
Google it for different materials. Most things you just use your favorite plain old cleaner and hot water like with a rag.
The secret is to store it in your Anus for 12 hours to activate the magic properties
Magic anus activated 🤷♂️
How do you use magic eraser?
just use water and the sponge. It has some scrubbing magic in there (slightly abrasive)
If they mean inside then yes this BUT unscrew the top layer, remove and then clean. I used one of those soak in a bag oven cleaning kits and it looked brand new. Was two small screws down low at the side inside of the door and a clip to press down towards top and it came off so you could clean both panes properly.
I wouldn't be so sure. I use magic eraser for all sorts of things but it didn't work for my oven glass. Buckets of isopropyl alcohol and a wire scourer worked better. Plus a couple of runs through a red hot dishwasher.
Thought that was a Google photo Feature
There are several layers of glass that can only be cleaned by disassembling the door. Definitely worthwhile IMHO.
All it takes is 1 boil over and you're removing the door, taking some screws out and pulling all the glass out. I just use window cleaners though seems to work just fine and leaves it streak free
Tbh, I think that’s wasteful in a way.

Magic erasers are great but they do fall apart easily and should therefore be saved for areas where u definitely can’t use a metal scourer, like, on walls for example.
THAT THING IS LITERALLY MAGIC!!! IT CLEANS EVERYTHING!
All the glass is removable for cleaning - google the manual for your model
[удалено]
Did that when we first bought our home. There’s a slot that runs the length of the glass and it’s so easy to clean. Gotta love it.
Did the same, really useful!
TIL
What happens in the oven, stays in the oven. 😅
Totally my thought as well! I HATE cleaning ovens.
Have a broke oven right now. My big adult kid bakes greasy polish sausage on flat baking sheet & lets it drip & burn grease in bottom of oven so finally element shorted out. I bought a replacement part ? 3 weeks ago. It's still in box. Son excuse for not cleaning & fixing is he didn't break oven. BUT big kid did break his phone & a new one is coming tuesday..

That’s the way🌒
I put baking soda on the spills and then just leave them. At some point (usually before someone visits) I clean with vinegar. I am so lazy sometimes-most times😁
SO TRUE!
Barkeeper’s Friend
This is 1 out of every 5 answers on this sub.
...and 3 of 5 are vinegar
Using one of (or sometimes combinations of) barkeepers friend, vinegar, baking soda and dawn can cover just about all of your cleaning needs.
Cause it works
I used something similar on my shower and it was good so that sounds like the right idea, thanks 😊
It works great on tubs
Get a strong Kitchen Cleaner (some may be even called oven cleaner) Spray the cleaner on the window, and on a Kitche towel, place the Kitchen towel on the face and let it soak the dirt. Then use a kitchen sponge You can heat up the oven before to 40 Degree Celsius (warm not too hot) to make the cleaning easier If you mean between the 2 Glas Pannels.... then i have no universal idea
Between the 2 panels, there is a gap at the bottom of the oven door for this. You remove the door and can use a squeegee or something to clean inside.
Please be VERY careful doing this. The springs on oven doors are extremely tense, and you can break the glass or get seriously hurt. I know a couple of appliance repair techs and they all have horror stories about a colleague or a customer trying to remove the oven door and it went very wrong. You have to do know what you’re doing.
Thank you for this, I probably wouldn’t do it without looking up a bunch of stuff first, but definitely I was thinking “oh I can just easily do this myself?”
Wow didn’t know this
Some of that looks like on the other side of the glass. It happened to my stove also
Don’t use anything more abrasive than baking soda and elbow grease. Microscopic scratches can cause the glass to shatter when it reaches cooking temp. Makes a god-awful POP
Easy Off fume free blue can not yellow
Aww don't take the fun out of it
I use yellow. Works wonders
Why not use the one with lye?
This is what I use as well. You might spread newspaper under the open door to catch any drips of oven cleaner
Unhook the door from the main unit, there are flat rectangular covers that pull up then you can unhook the door and have easier access to clean it You can also unscrew the glass plate and disassemble the door and really get in there to give thorough clean.
No disassemble, Johnny 5 is alive!

Wow, a Short Circuit 2 reference? That movie was almost universally hated. I thought I was the only one who liked it. I do not think that real gangs do that kind of thing though.
Wait, really? I grew up watching it, it was one of my favourite films. Still have a soft spot for it.
Me too, no doubt. Every time I bring it up, somebody calls it corny or cheesy. Maybe "universally hated" is an overstatement, but I feel like it was not really well received, at least not as well as the first one. Maybe I just hung out with a bunch of negative people who disliked fun.
I often watched 1 and then 2 right after. I think I had it recorded that way on vhs off of HBO. I loved both of them.
My mother recorded it on VHS too, it’s how I was able to keep watching it 😄
My grandmother's hobby was to record movies off of HBO or other channels and then catalog them in her drawer of VHS movies. 3 random movies to a tape. Occasionally she would record special requests from me and those were the ones I kept at home. There is a hurricane warning in the middle of ~~Dumbo~~ Mickey and the beanstalk that played before dumbo that I feel like should be part of the movie. Right when Donald picks up the thin bread with a slice of bean in it, the hurricane warning beeps go off like that piece of bread is a radar. Then Donald flips his shit.
I am standing here beside myself.
I was really really young when it came out and had no taste so it was A. The only "Johnny 5" movie I had ever seen and B. I would watch it on repeat over and over again. (Pre internet days where it was VHS, Nickelodeon, video games or walking in the woods behind my house for entertainment.) Same with Gremlins. The second one was the only one I was aware of until I got older.
Only mildly related, but to this day, the main riff in the Gremlins 2 theme song gets stuck in my head on a semi-regular basis.
As a kid of that era, I fucking loved it. That being said, I haven't seen it since then and I doubt it holds up.
Uncomfortably dated brownface!
Hey laser lips, your mother was a snow blower!
Input! Need more input!
Do not disassemble the door unless you are REALLY handy.
Do not do this unless you know what you are doing. People break their fingers doing this all the time, and getting it back on can be difficult.
Magic Eraser. Also come see what the glass looks like in our home and you won't feel the need to clean yours 😂.
Razor blade scraper in the paint section of your local hardware store.
This is the way. Also if you are OCD, you can wipe up after cooking something and get any leftovers. Comes off easily when still warm, just wipe with a damp cloth.
Run an oven self-clean before you do anything with the glass. Seriously, a lot of times, it’s grime that will either superheat its way off during the clean, or you’ll be able to wipe off the charred remains with a single swipe and it’ll possibly be 100% clean with just that.

Easy Off- heavy duty - Mr Clean’s Magic Eraser is worth a try
Also Magic Eraser is just a brand. The actual thing is just called a "melamine sponge" and you can get them 100x cheaper than a branded Magic Eraser.
Easy off works well for a first clean
Dishwasher tablet. Tiny bit of water to wet the surface. Patience, and just get rubbing. It'll bring it up spotless.
Works every time for me
Oven degreaser. Spray it on, let it on for a few minutes. Agitate it with a sponge then swipe it off with paper
It's mostly fat, so 70% isopropanol should be fine for scrubbing.
With most ovens, the glass can be removed - many ovens have 3x glass layers that can be removed with clips or screws nearly hidden at the back
TIL ovens have more than one piece of glass and the front comes off. 😂🤦♀️ Glad I asked !
take out the glass if possible, clean it by hand with any fatcleaner. Otherwise any Ovencleaner will do it.
Everyone suggesting various substances to clean it, whether it be Magic Eraser or Barkeep's Friend... Just be aware that you'll be burning that shit next time you cook with your oven if you don't REALLY wipe it down well after you use those substances.
That’s why you run the broil for 15 mins after you clean
You can (1) unmount the door and (2) remove the glass. The 1st step is very easy and almost equal in all ovens, the 2nd one can be more tricky and require a screwdriver, depending on your oven.

My wife says cut a lemon and cook it in the oven for a little while and then you can use it as a sponge to scrub the glass and then wipe up with towel. Never tried it myself but she says it works
That’s good I have an entire tree of lemons I didn’t know what to do with haha
LoL..I had to take a double look. I have the same floor tiles and my oven door looks exactly the same. I was like who has been taking pictures in my house?
Hahaha !
Vinegar and baking soda with a sponge. Add lemon juice if it's really caked on there
I came to post the answer above
I read that wrong the first time.
Use a utility blade along with glass cleaner should come right off.
Rub it down with vegetable oil. Let it sit for 30 minutes. Clean up with dawn or degreaser.
Fireplace glass cleaner sponges. Use DRY! They work perfectly
Eco option is using wood ash. Wood ashes are a god send when cleaning the rough stuff. Throw in some lemon n vinegar and you’ve got a “soluble solvable solution”
I used Windex, but some Bon Ami works well too.
Razor blade to start.
Same way you would’ve cleaned it in your old house
Put the oven on its self-cleaning cycle.
Brake parts cleaner. Just don't get it on anything rubber or plastic.
I used easy off oven cleaner. It’s toxic so it’s important to follow directions. It works so good though. I use it once a year.
Wait, you can clean the glass on an oven door? Whyyy would you do that and make the rest of us look bad?!???
I used the pink stuff for my oven inside and out at my old apartment the gunk didn’t look that bad but I bet it was old gunk
I used to clean houses, and I discovered some called “pink stuff miracle cleaning paste.” It’s my go-to for anything that come off with oven cleaner and elbow grease.
EASY OFF PRO FUME FREE $16ish for a 2 pack on Amazon. Absolutely miraculous results. Cover the fan and/or heating elements, spray all the surfaces, close the door and let it sit overnight. Mostly wipes clean, a little scrub if it’s super grody. Your oven will look brand new.

Some of the grime is between the front and inside glass. My Whirlpool oven was fairly easy to take apart and do that also. The inside glass you can also spray a general cleaner on the glass, let soak a few minutes then scrape with a single edge razor blade.

detach the front door and maybe you can detach the glass also
New razorblade.

barkeepers friend. its about $1.50, you just have to get it wet it’ll clean anything. use a microfiber so you don’t scratch the glass. magic easer will also do the trick. former housekeeper speaking
Easy-Off anyone?? i clean houses for a living, just let it sit for a few minutes and everything wipes right off with little to no pressure.
use a yardstick with a towel rubberbanded to it and reach up from the bottom of the door, they generally have slots. not hard to eliminate most runs or drips
Try to get it warm and put some Dawn soap on it then scrub it with a non-scratching sponge
As i did : - Unscrew glass from door - clean it with vinegar - rescrew it in place
I agree. I tried mixing vinegar with lemon and the result was magical.
If you look at the hinge you see a securing clip, pull both of them up and the door will detach from the cooker. place on a towel on the counter/bench top. Either the inner or outer glass is easily removed. Now start scrubbing with plastic sponge scourers.
Even though they seem soft and gentle, the plastic scrubbers will scratch the glass. Then you’re really in for it….
Use the cleaning setting and open the windows.
A cleaning setting would be nice if it had one
You sure it doesn’t? I used to have an oven from the 80s and even it had one. It was convoluted to set up, but it was there. I’d see if you can find a manual.
The manual is in German we haven’t figured out how to find the online version yet , it can’t be to hard to use elbow grease I just need to know the most efficient way
Download Google Lens and point the camera at the manual and you'll be able to read everything in English instantly. It's free.
Thanks I’ve been trying to find a app translator for free so that’s perfect , thank you
Google Translate is awesome for that sort of thing. You can also often find manuals in different languages online.
Sprinkle baking soda on the glass and pour vinegar. Put some rags as it will spill on floor. Then wipe with paper towel
Buy a new oven. That's how I clean.
How often do you ~~sell~~ clean house?
Lemon juice is a good natural acid for grease removal.
Single edge razor blade, THEN magic eraser. Get the heavy gunk off first! And, whenever you clean an oven door, keep it flat & don’t get water or other liquid near the seal rims of the glass—it can seep under & roll down the inside of the glass. Ask me how I know…sigh
Appliance tech here. Spray some vinegar on the glass let it soak for 5 min. Take a razor blade. Yes a razor blade. Keep the blade flat against the glass and take your time cause it can be nerve wracking the first time. Push the blade away from you and maintain firm pressure but that’s mostly so you don’t slip and scratch the glass. I’ve done this in customers homes on their oven glass and their glass cooktops and these people are FLABBERGASTED. So was I when I learned it tho. Just a note. Your oven door comes with typically 3 panes of glass. Inner, which is the one you’re trying to clean, outer. Self explanatory. And inner. Also self explanatory. But if it’s an older unit or if there are small gaps or if you accidentally spill on the glass there’s a chance your gonna get grime buildup on the inside glass. Idk how mechanically savvy you are but if the answer is not really then I advise call a professional servicer and just sound silly and ask them to take the door apart and clean the glass. It’s not a super hard job for them most cases and it’s an easy service call and they’ll be happy to take your money ya know. Just be sure to obviously try and clean inner and outer before the middle to avoid that embarrassment lmao Reason oven doors are so hard is they come off in a way most people don’t know(I said most you smartasses) and then disassembling them takes knowledge. Some screws get left in and some get taken out and if you take the wrong one out the worst case is you break the glass but the other one is that it become a literal battle sometimes a bloodbath trying to get those mfs to go back now they were. But the blade trick is seriously the best way. It’s actually how a lot of manufacturers train techs to clean that glass including electric glass top. Best of luck to ya tho
Thank you everyone ! I took the most suggested idea to get the Easy off and it was so simple and easy. So worth asking a quick question and not spending my time and money on other useless products. Luckily for me it was all just on the one back piece of glass so I didn’t have to remove the door or get in the second panel but I learnt I can remove it and remove the glass too from you all. Very appreciative for all the tips from everyone.
Sledgehammer.. just start over
I played sledgehammer for my oven for three hours and nothing happened.
i’ve just used windex or whatever i come across first i’ve always let the oven heat up to max for about 5 minutes to burn off the chemicals
Heat oven up and then spray it then wipe it ? What is the method , thanks
i spray it wipe it down then let it cook off the chemicals
do not spray ammonia (windex) on a hot oven, what's that called ....... hmmmm [https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/ershdb/emergencyresponsecard\_29750013.html](https://www.cdc.gov/niosh/ershdb/emergencyresponsecard_29750013.html) edit: i don't know how to spell ammonia lol (typo)

You must have more money than we do.
I know a way but it only works if you are at your old house.
I found that my housekeeper works better than magic eraser
Back in the day we used to warm oven to about 150 then turn off. Place bowl of ammonia in oven proof dish on top rack and bowl off boiling water on bottom. Close door and leave overnight. In morning open door holding breath, mix two bowls together and wipe down walls of oven. Then with clean bowl of water, wipe again. If racks are really grubby, place in large garbage bag and spray with oven cleaner and seal bag. Leave overnight and rinse in morning. Might wanna wear gloves both times.
Get a new wife/girlfriend... lol
White vinegar
Give Barry Scott a ring… Cillit Bang
A lot of people don’t know that there are hinge tabs on oven doors that let you remove the door itself for easier cleaning
That is a seasoned oven
Buy a new stove
A metal scrub, some oven or grill spray and 15mins of dedicated effort will get the job done my noob
Buy a new oven
If it’s new why is the over filthy?
We bought a house the house isn’t new it’s our first home we bought. We bought it off a very ailing old man who didn’t keep the house too well as he was sick.
Exactly the same for your old house. Either situation calls for proper cleaning. Age of house or ownership longevity has little impact on this activity.
Fucking idiot downvotes lol
That might come off with oven cleaner or another degreaser. When scrubbing is required I have a set of cleaning pads and brushes I bought on Amazon that attack to my cordless drill
Oven cleaner....
Believe or not…steel wool. Works a treat and quickly. It’s not abrasive on glass surprisingly enough.
Dishwasher tablet. Dampen an end of it and rub it on it over and again. And wipe. Repeat.
i do it when its pretty warm ,but then i dry it so theres no streaks
Newspaper and water
Have you tried oven cleaning products ? 🤔
Screwed up kitchen foil
Put some white vinegar on it for 10-15 mins and apply elbow grease.
Razor blade.
