  • I use Genuine Mr Muscle oven cleaner from Poundland!!
    Spray it on as a foam, leave it 2 hours when the faom makes a blanket then wipe off and give it a quick rinse. Mine is like new again and this stuff had no overpowering smell which I was expecting.
    Lets get this straight. Say my house is worth £100K, it drops £20K and I complain but I should not complain when I actually pay £200K via a mortgage:rolleyes:

    I love oven pride too but just a word of warning, when you take the bag outside don't spill any on paving flags, I had a bag with a hole in and it left a trail where I had walked from the kitchen door to the roof of the wendyhouse where I put it down, 6 months later and the oven needed it doing again but the trail on the paving stones was still going strong.

    (I mean six months later the oven needed a mega clean, not that i don't clean it more often than every 6 months)

    Another vote for Oven Pride!

    As for Mr Muscle......... i can't stand the stuff. (unfortunately all Mr Muscle products seem to 'burn/ irratate' my skin)

  • This morning I used my mr Muscle, left it 1 hour then wiped it clean.
    The bit in between the door and the oven was slightly grubby so give it a quick rub. The sharp edge cut through the cloth, the rubber glove and my index finger tip. To top that I had Mr Muscle in the cut.

    A dab of superglue has fixed it but I suppose I'll not be able to pick my nose for a week. (just kidding!)
    Just be careful!!

    i found cif fume free oven cleaner not particularly brilliant on my oven, but fabulous for cleaning up an old plastic-coated enamel bath!!

    I haven't tried oven pride. I like Lakelands Oven Mate. It restores even the most vile ovens :D to pure sparkling wonderfulness!!!

    I bought some of this and it arrived today, never used it before but I am really excited about using is, does that make me really sad? :rotfl:
