Cleaning oven glass is not too hard. You don't need to remove the door to do it. If you have any questions just ask. The oven I am working on is a Whirlpool brand, but it is often the exact same process with other brands.

Just thought I'd comment on this excellent job. I have watched a number of over-door cleanings, replacing, what-nots and have decided I really like a dirty oven door glass. Gives it character! Blessings to all of you! 😂🤣🤪
I'm a grown ass woman, 60 years old, who's had many kitchens and ovens in her life. Yet only just today I discovered you could remove an oven door, take it apart and clean it inside and out. Who knew? (obv. not me!) Thanks for this! 👍👍👍
Dude, you could be a millionaire just going door to door cleaning oven glass and charge $50 bucks! That's easily the most satisfying thing I've seen in a long time.
True hey and remember word of mouth spread fast you do it in one house then the rest follows , Just make sure you do not break the customer's glass 🤪
Who would do all that work for 50 measly bucks? Thats a $300 job if I ever saw one. No one will come to your house for less than $100 before they’ve even done any work. They just don’t roll the truck for less than 100 bucks. Unless of course they want to go out of business.
@@lillytaggert178 you're going to argue about a fictional job? Get a life, quick.
Forest for the trees. I was teaching the children what things cost in the real world. They obviously have no knowledge of even their earning potential. They expect to earn 50 for that much work when they grow up? They’ll starve to death.
Lilly Taggert $50 is too cheap but $300 is way too expensive. Whirlpool will service your oven for $125. Seems that’s a good starting point. If you want to undercut the company, $99.99 seems like a good price point. Assuming you can do this work in an hour after experience, that’s a nice little cheap business one can run. Nobody’s paying $300 to clean a $750 oven.
I gave this a Like since it has a few good tips and the glass cleaning worked like a charm to remove the specs of built in grime! The method in this video may work if you have some upper body strength but if you don't - please just REMOVE the whole door from the hinges and lay it on a flat surface before removing any screws. If you don't you are stuck trying to put 2 glass pieces at an angle that is not stable at all - it will slide everywhere! Not to mention- the insulation will shift when the glass slides as you try to keep it all together with your hand and knees while trying to put the screws on! Impossible - hours of frustration! A flat surface is soooo much better!
Agreed. My wife and I just cleaned our whole Whirlpool gas oven (2 hours tops), removed the Door, then removed the bottom piece (2 screws) and burner plate (2 screws) to get to the burner area (tray), YOU WILL need to clean there too. As far as the Door, it is much easier to work with from a flat surface, plus no finger prints trying to slide the glass back in, no messing with the fiberglass, easier working with the screws, etc. Not knocking the way he did it and appreciate the video, but for most of us just remove the door. Not even sure that you save that much time by not removing the door.
If I watch this another 60 times I may try. I hate that dirty inside glass. I wish this guy could come over & clean it for me.
well done and about the only thing I might want to add is that you must be careful to replace the glass pieces exactly as removed. Having known someone who took apart the door to clean the glass, the glass pieces got mixed up when putting back together and the next time they used the oven, the oven side of the glass broke. I liked that you put your pieces on a top and bottom rack to help remind one which one goes where. Thank you
Thanks, you filmed this in 2015. Its Dec. 2019 and I used this recording to take on the challenge of cleaning up my Whirlpool electric oven window glass. Been wanting it done for some years now, it looks bad. I was successful, no broken glass and it looks new. Made a huge difference in the appearance of my stove in the kitchen. Thanks for your patience of teaching us how to do this.👍🏿🔥🔥
You really did this? You're amazing. I want to but....I'm scared!
Yes, I really did clean the inside of my oven glass. Just take your time, wear glove there are some sharp edges. Use something to support the oven door other than your knee. A plastic bin, cardboard box or stool about the height of the oven door when open will be a big help. Hope everything goes well. I am soooh happy to have mine clean and I have a big sence of accomplishment. You can do it👍🏿👌🏽
Sir, you did an excellent job. Thanks for letting me know that this is something that I will never try doing.
I have this problem. My housekeeper cleaned the stove and outside oven door a few years back. Somehow streaks appeared shortly thereafter on the inside of the glass just like in this video. I’m glad there’s a way to clean the glass but don’t think I’m capable enough to assemble the oven door back again by myself.
It’s very disappointing because the stove cost $1,000 USD 😖. I agree what other people have mentioned that in this day and age, the manufacturers should make sure the oven doors be perfectly sealed, in order to prevent any liquids leaking or seeping into the glass oven window. 😖☹️. Very bad workmanship.
Omg that’s exactly what happened to me I literally was using bar keepers liquid cleaner and it got between the glass ! Mind you I’m a housekeeper I don’t do the inside of my clients ovens ..because I only do standard cleaning 🧹 but I did this to my own oven yesterday..I noticed my glass wasn’t perfectly flush .. so cleaning product seeped in .. I’m scared to open the glass door
I think most professionals or DIYers would take the door off entirely and then take it apart rather than disassembling it while still attached and praying you can get it all together again. Taking the door off is a matter of just flipping two hinge locks. If it works it works but still.
PS, Bosch ovens have a clip at the top that comes off and allows the glass panels to be removed. Easy and efficient.
Great tutorial. Had the drip lines in between my oven glass for 3 years. Took my frigidaire oven door off, unscrewed the layers, cleaned the glass, and put it completely back together in 20 mins. VERY satisfying.
On my Whirlpool oven, a wall oven, there is a slot across almost the entire bottom. I took a yardstick. I tightly wrapped some paper towel with rubber bands around one end of the yardstick. I sprayed window cleaner onto the paper towel. I inserted the window cleaner soaked end of the yardstick into the bottom slot and cleaned the filthy, drippy interior glass. You might need to do this a few times depending on how dirty the window glass is. Slide it out slowly and carefully so the window cleaner soaked end doesn't catch and slide off the yardstick. Result is that the inner part of the window is clean.
I am 64 on my 5th stove in my life always wanted to clean this. At about 45 I watched a you tube video. It looked way to hard and decided never to do it. But now the oven door is bugging me even more so I think I have matured enough to give it a try. I got all ready to start to day and found out mine has a weird screw in it. Did yours also how do I figure out for tomorrow what screw driver I need for this.
I love this guy! My kind of husband.... my husband tried to take it apart and.... he got 2 glasses left and a couple screws left, ever since I can’t use my oven.
In this day and age, screwing around like this just ain't gonna happen in most households. It's about time the MANUFACTURERS designed a door in such a way that nothing could get on the inside surfaces of the glass. An oven is not a sophisticated device... it's just a cheap metal box made of thin, flimsy metal with a couple of elements in it that they want far too much money for.
rae0521 Absolutely!
why? as you know manufacturer's are now offering maintenance service on their appliances. Why ignore the car industry or apple who are ripping off their loyal customers with basic repair service that anyone can do. It's a greedy world out there and whirlpool and friends want some of that pie. The only savior for now is how youtube is allowing regular joe's to post how to videos, until mass advertising forces YT to start blocking these types of help videos or pull their adverts off the site.
rae0521 I agree 👍
Huh, when I wrote to Maytag about the faulty design and any suggestions on how to clean my filthy, sauce stained glass windows they didnt write back.
@@kathleenchapman3890 It's not a surprise to me when "after the sale" translates into "don't bother us."
Earlier today, I was trying to film my souffle rising in the oven and kept saying over and over how how dirty my oven windows are, I couldn't get good pics -- then this showed up in my recommended feed -- gotta love the spies!! -- awesome vid by the way going to tackle my two Miele ovens now!
So here I am, 7.15 pm (GMT) on New Year's Eve 2019, and I'm watching a video on how to clean the (inside) glass panel of an oven ... and I found it oddly satisfying! Yup, my life officially sucks, lol. Happy 2020 everyone.
JohnPaul Dixon ur not alone! Happy new year
Lol! I waited until Jan 2, 2020! 😎
@@emccoy3556 ... Hahaha, blimey, we're rowing in numbers! Happy 2020.
@@MissDeb-jq6nz ...Wow, you're quite restrained,lol.
There are worst things you could be doing at that time. I haved waited till the 2nd of January.
Nope! Just throw the whole oven away 🤣🤣 son is no longer allowed to cook... great job! I probably would have forgotten how to put it all back together 🤦🏾♀️
It’s a great idea, but SO much would go SO wrong SO fast🤦🏾♀️‼️..I was thinking the same thing🥴❗️ ...plus, I could see me breaking the both pieces of glass 🤣
joi0708 exactly!
Lol. My thoughts exactly I already asked my son to help me I would be nervous taking it apart on my own.
I know you could do it. I used to be afraid of taking things apart and put them back together, but I found that if I took photos on my phone step by step (delete them later) I could easily put it back together without forgetting a step.
Kristi - my thoughts exactly! There is no way I could EVER do this. lol
Thanks to all of you that have posted all the very helpful CZcams videos on how to clean oven glass.
Okay, I just finished cleaning my oven door glass. The easy part is taking the oven door off, apart, and then reinstalling. The hard part is cleaning the glass.
First, I would recommend taking plenty of photos before you take anything apart. Next I would recommend taking more photos as you are slowly taking things apart. If you have enough room, lay out the parts in the order you took them out while taking photos of everything. You can’t have to many photos.
To clean the glass I tried a number of products mentioned in all the CZcams videos I watched before I began my task. What worked best for me was a combination of the following depending on how much build up there was.
A razor blade,
You must be careful not to scratch the glass. I felt comfortable using a blade as I use it often when cleaning car windshields for myself and others. If you don’t know what you’re doing or not experienced using a razor blade, do not use it.
Bar Keepers Friend (cleanser) with a Teflon safe sponge,
Need to use a little “elbow grease with this but it does work
Mr. Clean's Magic Eraser,
Works about the same as cleanser and sponge but not as rough.
Griot’s Glass Polish and a glass polishing pad,
I use this as the finishing touch and applied it with my Porter Cable 7424XP set to number four. It’s the same process I use on auto windshields and it actually takes off a layer of glass on a molecular level. Makes the glass as smooth as a babies a$$.
For those that don’t have the tools and products for the last step, just rinse the glass clean with mild soap and water after you’ve cleaned the glass to your satisfaction. Wipe it dry, reinstall the glass, reassemble the door, and reinstall the oven door to the oven. Don’t forget to take the pins out if applicable and reinstall the door stop clips.
Job done!
I have those drips and after watching this those drips are going to stay there. I’m not about to get all stressed trying to get it back together.
To much work...and I would not get it back together,as I would possibly break the glass....
Just drape some dish towels on the oven handle to cover it up.
Ann Marie that is exactly what I do. ☺️
LOL i was just going to say that. Id be buying a new stove. OMG! Hell noooooo!
@@annmarie2964 Lol!!!
This has been so helpful and now I will attempt to clean my oven door glass. Thank you for sharing. Best video by far on how to clean the oven door glass.
Aside from a handful of instances where glass could've shattered, it was an informative video.
Thank you!! I have this same oven. I didn't know how to get to that 3rd piece of glass 😅 I just needed to take it apart farther and needed your guidance.God bless you!😊
The fact that we have to disassemble these stoves to clean them shows a poor design and lack of taking the consumer and usability into account
I agree
Yes if people wouldn't buy them, they wouldn't sell them so easily.....this man was fantastic he could make a living cleaning people's oven glass doors.....you almost see one everywhere you go.....I would not want to have to take that thing apart & clean.....I'd gladly pay someone to do it.....
I absolutely agree. I wouldn't even dare to do this.
Ok HOW did you not get your beautiful shirt dirty ? I'm terrified to do this . Taking apart is ok ... putting it back together is another story
Absolutely. Why on earth does it have to be so difficult? It puts me off cleaning it. I’m sure I wouldn’t be able to fit it back together again.
I had the same problem, only it was chicken and dumplings that went through the vent holes and ran down the glass. I started to undo the screws to clean it but was afraid that it might be harder than it looked. That was a really helpful video.
But my door has a big opening slit between the doors glasses where with a long handled instrument, it can conceivably be cleaned without the hassle of taking the doir apart at the bottom of the door. Gas man who worked on our igniters recently said he didn't know there was any oven doors with openings like that.
Theres a great video showing that way of doing it with GE stoves. Now I'll see if my Kenmore works the same way.
It helps that I worked as an auto mechanic to 30years but I still check before I take something apart. This does not look like that difficult of a job. Just keeping everything in order and getting an extra set of hands is a good plan for me. This was helpful, clear and not over the top with unnecessary details. Thanks
I am glad you have all the time in the world to clean an oven glass - God Bless You. I would suggest buy a quality product.
NGH NGH I spent extra on an oven and still this same design flaw. It’s a pretty common issue.
😂
The cleaning is the easy part. Taking it apart and putting it back together would be really hard for me to do by myself. And let's not forget that ungodly scraping noise that made me cringe. When you were scraping with the razor blade, that made me so nervous, it reminded me of Dan Akroyd on SNL when he did the Julia Child impression and sliced his hand open!! I have a double oven and there's no way I'm doing this. I applaud you for cleaning it so thoroughly, your spouse is very lucky :-) My husband would lose his mind if he tried to do this lol
Taking the door completely off makes everything so much easier and simple, and very easy to put back on !!
Dang I have this issue, but it wasnt easy like I thought so me and those stains gonna be friends!
LOL !!!

🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh wow... for things like these I really miss my husband! He was super sweet handy with the 'honey do' lists!
@Little Dorrit .............................wow lady!
@Little Dorrit 😁😁. How about the car? Can he work on it? Luckily my husband can do alot of the goodies around the house for me! He was single awhile and learned to do stuff!
But , with the newer cars, not so good! Those suckers make it you HAVE to go to the mechanic for $80 an HR just to look!
BUT, back to this.. my owner's manuel says not to attempt to take oven door apart! It's also glass, but not really dirty yet!
Thank you, even though I didn't need all of your instructions the latter part where you are putting the glass back in with the side flashing helped me to see how those small narrow strips of plastic edging fit back in. I was about to hire someone to come do the work ( but not @ $75 service call ) your video saved me! thank you for your time and clear instructions, especially the reassembling portion. God bless you Adam.
I am a professional oven cleaner in the UK with 11 years experience. Trust me just take the door off it will make the task far easier and it is safer.
Yes, but I really feel what he said about re-installing those damn Whirlpool oven doors after removing them. I am a skillful mechanically inclined guy and the first time was a bitch for me. The second time, I spent a half day trying to re-install it. Almost turned me into a raging homicidal maniac.
Just took mine to clean the inside and can't put them back on!!! Please help me 😭
I don't wish to offend, but to apply the word "professional" to oven cleaning is a bit of a stretch, don't you think. Just because you get paid to do something doesn't make you a "professional." Years of study and honing of special skills are required to earn the "professional" title in my book.
ed zmuda I laughed out loud at your remarks because I know where you’re coming from! 😂
rae0521 ::: The term “professional” can apply to one who is paid to use their knowledge, skills and, or abilities to achieve a result for a specific task.
I think taking the door completely off would save time vs restling the layers of the door frame and the glass, and probably safer too....
I think that could help if the innermost layer would just lift off the rest.
Thank you, I wanted to clean my glass so I looked for a tutorial and ended up here. After watching it I don’t think I will do it.
That looks like a great side business.
I think I would rather pay someone to do this for me lol
OMG taking it apart is just way to much trouble. I would never be able to put it back together again. This man is a Godsend I hope his wife appreciates him.
You have to get down on the floor for my suggestion, and have some kind of tray on the floor under the door of the oven, too, but here is what I discovered: The top AND THE BOTTOM of the door have openings. If you feel under the door, you will find it. If you pour very hot water with something like Mr. Clean or any of those cleaners you add to water, pour it down the top slot where the drips entered the door and try to get it to cover the whole glass window, you can poke a ruler, or any kind of stick you can fit through the opening in the bottom, with an old rag over it and wipe it on the window. It is messy, so have a sheet pan or something like that on the floor to catch the water you pour down the inside of the door. If you are brave enough to remove the whole door you can take it outside and do this on the grass without having to crawl around on the floor and make a mess indoors. It worked for me, but of course it doesn't stay clean, does it? I need to do it again soon.
I cant imagine me doing it. But good tutorial for people who can .
He worked so hard!!! Great tutorial! I MAY try but not sure.
Please watch when putting your front plate of glass back on your stove as this is tempered glass and will explode if you tighten screws or bend the glass the wrong way. I quickly found this out yesterday when putting the glass back on.
Wow, I’m retired but do residential cleaning on the side. Many a homeowner has mentioned the dirty glass on the inside of their oven door but knows it can’t be cleaned and to just ignore, until now. Thanks for the tutorial, I may offer this service as an option should my clients want to pay for some extra time for me to clean.
I could take the door apart but I know I could never put it back together! You did such a good job! I live in a rented condo so I’m never going to try that here!
Thanks for sharing. I thought those streaks were there FOREVER. Thanks👍
Cleaning the glass is MUCH easier if you first remove the door and lay it on a padded surface, like a moving quilt. Wear protective GLOVES when removing/installing and handling the glass.
I need my done right now thanks for the demonstration on this Christmas day !!!!!!!!🌲🌲🎅👼🎅
Good call my man. Invisible Glass is the best. It is the only glass cleaner I use.
OMG, it looks great when your done, but the average person risks buying a new stove after you can’t figure out how to get it all back together.
Thank you for the video. The only things I would add are: rug on the floor in front of the range to prevent damage, small dishes for the screws, and cardboard or other covering for the kitchen counter and other places parts are placed. Once again- thank you!
My friend tried this and ended up breaking the door it cost her over a thousand dollars to buy another one. Best advice is to just live with it. Put a nice towel over the door. Or just dont look at it.
Roberta Hubert
Good advice,Roberta. I with you.
My OCD won't let me just live with it. I thought I had done this and took the door apart somewhat and thought I did a pretty good job. Until now. I'm going to have to do it over now. My oven had a fire and whatever the firemen sprayed on it, it went everywhere. Just know that you can have a massive fire in a Kenmore range and it'll still work just fine. Almost have most of the smoke residue off my blinds too.
$1000 ???? Buy a new oven
Roberta Hubert there is no way in hell that an oven door would cost 1,000 dollars, that’s just an exaggeration! stoves don’t cost near as much, stainless or not! I have never in my life found or saw any stove that cost that much, if a glass cost that much then your friend was better off to buy a new one....a really nice one in fact for a thousand
My friend did this, broke the door & found it couldn't be repkaced. Price if bew stove" $3,000
Dude , your doing very good job . I can take it off apart ok but never can put back together again
This saved me a visit from the repair man, thanks! Luckily, I did not have to remove the inner two panes of glass to clean my streaks. I suggest removing the door handle (two screws) to make cleaning the plastic grille easier. Again, I appreciate this video greatly!
Thank you AdamDIY. You saved us! We took the oven door apart to clean the glass & then couldn't get it back together. We were trying to fit those skinny side pieces where they didn't go! LOL! Thank you!!
Wow! I had no idea this involved so much effort! I just cleaned the inside of my oven...ok, the precise cleaning setting did most of the work 😆. But the glass in the door is a mess! This may have to happen another day! Thank you for sharing!!
I've always wondered how to clean those spills on my oven glass. Thanks for the great demo and info.
Dawn power wash works great too. Spray and rinse. It’s amazing on tough greased stains
Always wondered how to clean in between the glass door, thanks for sharing.
Very good video, Adam. Over the past 9 years I have cleaned the oven on our Kenmore stove 3 times using essentially the same method you posted. It probably could use a cleaning again, but I am now 76 y.o. and not in the best shape to do this. A friend of mine took his Whirlpool oven door off to clean it and never did get it put back together correctly. Since he won't listen to anyone offering advice I won't help him.
You did it without getting your shirt wet...that's amazing..I am going to try this before New Years because my oven door is quite grease spotted
My professional oven has a double glass and vent slots at the top of the door so it doesn't get overheated and break the glass. That's how stuff gets in there. I just squirted some liquid detergent in and used the garden hose (I have tile floors with drains). Take the door off, it's not that hard to get back on and take it outside and do what I did.
Looks pretty easy, just need the strength. If I take the door off the hinges, what is the tricky part you mentioned about getting it back on? - I'm going to wear gloves so I won't get cut on the metal or glass. - If the black spots just won't come off, make a paste of baking soda, apply it, let it sit a while (say 30 min or more), then wipe off. Sparkling glass. (I got a sparkling whole oven with this technique on an old super nasty stove oven with lots of the black spots that 3 applications of spray oven cleaner left behind.) Face it, oven glass gets dirty. To clean the whole oven is a big chore that takes a fair bit of time. That's why everybody hates doing it. I wish the door was an easier design to clean too but they are all like that. My Whirlpool is the best oven I've ever had in about 45 years.
Thanks for the great video! Now I know that I will not ever attempt such a task.
my sentiments exactly 😁😁
LOL
What a fantastic job A great gift for the cook in the family Thank you for sharing! And no i will not let my husband atrempt this Its just nice to watch it being done God bless 💚👵
I can already see all the DIYers calling an appliance repair guy & paying $100s to fix what they 'fixed'. Lol
I just called someone. Waiting to hear back from them.
This gave me anxiety lol but I loved it
Haha! I have a totally different oven, for giggles I looked for available parts, if I decide to keep it. Specifically, the door. Now I get this recommended, and I watch it. Because, not only does this guy give me anxiety, but, wtf. Quit following me Google.
What a brave confident man, cleaning wearing a nice button up shirt. Hats off to you sir.
I asked my husband to help he wouldn’t totally ridiculous he’s a bum
omg, I cant thank you enough for this video of the stove, you made it nice and clear, I now am able to remove my oven door and clean that glass finally.
I am sure I can take my oven door apart, but I am also sure I will never put it back the way it should be, so I will continue to look at the streaks in the glass. Great vid though. Thanks for sharing.
Well I have a pesky streak that just irks me to no end! My oven has to ALWAYS be CLEAN!!! That darn streak down the glass has been an itch in my crawl... and you my dear sir have shown me it can be done! Question is do I risk taking it apart........ or deal with it!? Oh the Dilemma 😬
Really clear instructions. Really good video. I need to clean mine and this will help a lot. I agree with another response: if you use oven cleaner, wear gloves. Don't know if it still contains lye, but it used to. And allow enough time. If you are like me, you will forget the order of things if you take too long a break!
Wow, thank you so much! I too have these streaks on the glass of my oven door. They’ve been there since I bought my house. Thanks to your demonstration, I can finally clean it. Truly grateful!
The modestly priced Belling oven from the UK has an easily removable inner glass pane. You simply slide it out, soak it in detergent (non ammonia), then scrape off the messy build-up with a razor scraper. No harsh chemicals, no dismantling required.
It’s because everything here is from China it’s awful
Great tutorial. It was just as easy to pull the door off. Sprayed with easy off. I also used vinegar and baking soda which worked well.
Just an excellent video. What comes through is the incredible rudeness of manufactures of stoves regarding oven doors. Right up there with those car manufacturers who design their engines in such a way that the entire engine has to be removed to replace some part . Absolute disregard for the consumer. Thanks again for this video.
I'm impressed you were able to do it yourself without a helping hand. Liked and Subscribed.
I think this is a lengthy demonstration of WHY to actually take the door of the hinges and lay it on a horizontal surface instead of worrying about bits falling off onto the floor. Nutty.
Thank you.Great video
I found that if you flip the keepers back, they will hold the hinge. eliminating the need for the small bits.
if it work's leave it alone ! i learned to hard way & broke the plastic strip's along the side's of the door,had to call a repairman to get it all back together at least i had a warranty.
you made it look easy . you explain it very well thank you, hope i can do it
Great job juggling all those layers. I would never be able to do it !!!
June Steuterman ::: Fridges are the same these days! Designed to fail!
I wish I had seen this one before the other videos, I took my door completely off and it seems harder. The hardest part was remembering which screws go where.
To you and all the wonderful man out there posting videos so my cleaning job get done the way I want, thank you!!!!
Very helpful. Wish you lived nearby as it is a bit much for me but the dirty glass drives me nuts! Thanks!
WOW! Thanks.. I've been wanting to clean the door glass for years.
I did this a few years back. It was easy to pull everything apart. But when it was a nightmare to put every part back together...😳
Thank You Adam! My wife had our stove apart and I went searching for a way to get rid of the gunk. Great video!
I was wondering how I could clean my oven glass. Even though it is an electric oven, there should not be that much difference in the door design. Thank you 😊.
I have a drip in mine and I remember thinking, when it happened, "What a poor design to allow anything dripping to go between the glass". I don't know if I would chance taking it apart to clean, but when I buy my next oven I will be looking for a different design.
Makes me thankfull i decided a long time ago not to sweat the small stuff!
That would be an excellent service business to start. And would probably be a very lucrative business because most people won’t want to do that themselves and will probably pay for it to be done several times a year.
I agree! I would definitely pay for this service. I love DIY projects however I am worried I would miss a step when putting everything back together.
Clarice Robinson Exactly. Me too.
I always wanted to learn this, nice thanks.
Think you so much I thought I would have to have a repair person out to clean the glass the saved me so much time and money!!
Thank you! I had no idea this can be done.
Only video that ever gave me cring worthy goosebumps, eeek! But gratefull for the demonstration.
Wow, thanks so much! I'm ready to tackle mine. We've been trying to sell our house and I hate that all those streaks and blobs are inside the glass. Not that that would make or break an offer or sale, but I would feel so much better. I'm going to pull my husband aside and make it a joint effort. One of us can take pics or video as we go because we never have the same memory of stuff like this. Even only an hour or two later. Can't wait to get it clean! And if it frustrates him.....well, maybe he will be more careful whenever he does any cooking!
I have a Maytag double oven. The first week I sloshed cream sauce down a vent all over glass on the inside. My hubby took it apart, I cleaned the glass, and now looks beautiful. If it happens again, I now know how to do it and wont hesitate to tackle it. Come on ladies...you'd be surprised what you can do. Take it from an old "hardware" gal.
Kathleen Chapman I'm scared
We didn't take the doors off because we felt it would be more difficult and just gently slid the glass out. Watch CZcams university for your model oven. It is so great to have beautiful clean glass and no towels anymore to cover the mess. When we owned our hardware, I always urged gals to go home and tackle small jobs themselves. Let me know how beautiful your doors turned out. You can do it!!
Thanks for the tutorial, believe or not I’m definitely gonna do this. Just a hint, I’ve been using the industrial strength of Dawn dishwashing soap for all my cleaning. It works better than any of those toxic cleaners and you don’t need gloves and it smells great. I am even using it to clean my toilets and sinks.
Keep in mind that you may be dealing with a tempered glass that can be experiencing heat stress. If you remove it from the housing in this condition, you could unexpectedly trigger the glass to shatter in your hands.
There are makes and models of ovens whose glass doors have exploded unexpectedly because of this.
Yes..my Kenmore range outer glass went boom spontaneously after 10 years of heat stress...something to do with "nickel sulphide inclusions" in the glass. Fixing it with a replacement glass from Reliable Parts (Canada). Hence my interest in this..
Good video except I feel he cut out part where he was struggling to get that metal piece back in so not sure how it really went back in?
