How to Clean Oven Racks Easily
Vložit
- čas přidán 11. 05. 2020
- Here is my favorite way to clean the oven racks without difficulty or effort. Usually, the oven cleaner dries out or flows down before it dissolves caked grease and grime on your oven racks. The cling wrap allows the oven cleaner to work as long as necessary and also provides close contact between the cleaner and racks surface.
✔ In the same way, you can clean drip pans and a grill shelf.
✔ Unlike soaking racks with detergent in a bathtub, you don't have to clean the bath and wash a towel later ;)
✔ Please pay attention that the oven self-cleaning feature is not designed to clean oven racks. It will break down the chrome surface of racks and permanently damage them.

I saw the oven cleaner method several years ago ... IT WORKS! Coat all racks with the oven cleaner and place inside of two doubled black plastic lawn bags. Let sit overnight. Rinse.
I put my racks in the bath tub with 3 dishwasher tablets fill with water to cover the racks and soak for 2 hrs , perfect clean racks and trays
I put mine in the bath tub with some Vanish .......will try dishwasher tablets next time!
I put mine in the bath tub with three kids , go to the pub for a couple of hours , works every time !
Brilliant. Effortless. If there is one thing I LOVE it’s CLEANING without scrubbing. I am a happy woman🤣
Your positive emotions make me a happy woman too 🤩. Thank you!
Who did not know that the side racks in the oven can be removed? 🙋🏽♀️
@Caroshah Pulling them out for the first time was a little scary. It was tight and hard to pull.
I didn't know either XD
Me, but I don't have them on mine now.
I knew! But i also know that mine are a bastard to get back into the fixing slots 😖😡🤬
Not all ovens will come out
I just tried this, soaked overnight, and it worked beautifully!! Thank you so much for sharing this!
I'm glad it worked out 👍. Thanks for the feedback 🙂
Based on a recommendation, I put cloudy ammonia in the tray, stack the racks on top and place in a sealed black plastic bag overnight and rinse. Works really well
Thanks for the tip! The more ways we have to handle this unpleasant work, the better 👍🙂
Thanks. And it's likely less toxic for the environment.
I do the same. Works brilliantly.
Came here for this. Thank you!
Brilliant thank you I will give that a go, I’m 65 and just found out the side racks can be removed! 😂
I'm so happy, that's great to hear! Thank you so much for your comments! Let me know how it goes 🤗
The cling wrap is a great trick. Thanks so much.
Wonderful to hear 🤗 Thank you!
My racks were very dirty, and this worked like a charm! They look brand new now, thanks for the video
Don't mention it! I'm so glad you're pleased 😉
Have you tried dryer sheets for the scrubbing part? Works amazing!
I've done it today and it worked! My racks were very dirty. Amazing! Thank you!
So glad to hear that! Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment :)
Soaking the racks in detergent and hot water for a few hours and then a quick wipe is the easiest for me.
Wrapping them in tin foil and soaking them in water with a dishwasher tablet for a couple of hours also works well.
Love this tip. Thank you and stay safe xxx
Oh thank you, that's very kind 🤗. I wish you the same!
You can accomplish exactly the same thing by following the same process except substituting a coating of baking soda & spraying with vinegar instead of using caustic oven cleaner.
I put them in the dishwasher. It doesn't actually get them clean but it does soften all the gunk which then comes off easily with Brillo pad or similar. It works for me. Try it and let me know what you think!
@Ray McLaughlan Because of the chrome finish, I don't risk washing the racks in the dishwasher. But I wash the trays in the dishwasher. It's not perfect, but often it's enough. If the trays had been too dirty, I soak them under the film for an hour, after dishwasher washing.
Doesn't the Brillo scratch racks? Pad made of steel...
I tried this and it is amazing ! Thank you for sharing!!!
That's so lovely to hear! Thank you 🙂
I even do this on the oven walls and door.
Genius! That is so clever! Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much! I'm pleased you have found it helpful.
Awesome ! I will try this 👍thanks for the great tips 👍
Really pleased you enjoyed it. Let me know how it goes 🤗
You can , also, use a garbage bag. Place racks into bag....take this outside (because of the oven cleaner fumes) spray racks inside of the bag, close and leave overnight. I rinse the racks off outside with hose before bringing inside. Not so messy.
We didn't see eye to eye musically, but we clean racks almost the same 🍻😉. I think film replaceable with a garbage bag, and the effect will be just as good. Thank you for the advice 🤝🙂.
Do you rinse them in back or front yard onto the grass or onto the concrete driveway ? Are the oven cleaner chemicals safe for the grass?
@@snaggledaggle7027 I rinse them over a patch of grass that doesn’t drain into the street. It has not affected the grass that I have noticed.
What a splendid idea. I always have to scrub away and hate cleaning the oven. Will do try this now.
Really pleased you enjoyed it. Thank you! I'll be glad if you let me know how it goes 🤗
I put my racks in a clean large trash bag. I spray the racks with oven cleaner then tie the top of bag. Leave racks for an hour or more, then rinse and dry.
Yes, a trash bag works great too. Thank you for sharing your experience!
@@KoalaSewing Ty.
Thanks for sharing
❤
Thanks your video made the job cleaning oven grates supper easy.
That is so nice to hear 🤗. Thank you so much for your feedback!
Smartest thing ever !
Thank you so much ! 🤗
Thank you for the comment! So pleased you liked it 🤗🌺
Spraying a solution of SuperClean and letting it sit for 15 to 30 minutes is highly effective as well.
What is SuperClean solution?
@@Paula-po9kx SuperClean is a degreaser product that works great at getting grease and grime off. You buy it as concentrate and use various dilutions depending on the task. You can find it at Walmart.

@@ranger2316 thank you, never heard of it but diffidently seek it out.
Far too long this cleaning process as a brillo pad 😂hot water & start rubbing. 5 minutes as good as new😂😂
WOW! Thank you for this tip.
Thanks so much for stopping by :)
I thought the first picture of the oven was after it had been cleaned not before!!!
Me too. I don’t think my oven was that clean brand new! Its not now, thats for sure 🤫
At last! I hope this does make putting things into the over with a glide!!
OMG can’t wait to try this.thanks for sharing.
Thanks for stopping by! Let me know how it goes 🤗
Did mine today and this works like a charm. Can’t believe i used elbow grease and steel wool and never got them to shine and finished exhausted and disappointed. The only thing i will do different next time is rinse off outdoors or in the bath tub or shower. doing it in the kitchen sink i splashed a bit. Thank you.
Thanks a lot for taking the time to comment and leaving this great feedback! Really pleased you enjoyed it 💖
Great video 👏🏻👍🏼🇬🇬
Thanks for watching I appreciate your support 🙂
My kids think at this stage it is time to max out their credit cards and buy a whole new oven, because it is way too much effort to clean & maintain things just like their ancestors did way back in the 1990’s.
My disappointment is at level 10. 😏
@John McMahon I myself love when my favorite things serve for many years. On the other hand, new home appliance often saves energy, time, and ultimately money. But I understand what you are talking about, Sir. Thank you for sharing your thoughts!
Excellent tip thank you.
Glad you like it 🤗. Thanks for watching!
That's amazing. I just spent hours scrubbing mine with steel wool before I saw this.It worked but it took lots of energy and time from me.
I will definitely try this next time.
Thanks for sharing
Amazing! Thank you!
Glad you like it 🤗 and thanks for watching!
Great, will give this a go
Hi Margaret, really pleased that you liked it! Good luck, I hope it goes well.
I’m going to try this trick with my hob racks. Fingers crossed 🤞
This time all surely it will turn out ✌️
Thanks!
Got to try it this way thank you
Thanks so much for stopping by! Let me know how it goes 😊
Very well made vide! I subbed
Really pleased 🤗 Thanks
Be careful when spraying the oven cleaner, it is very strong. I think there might have been overspray that went on the floor.
Perfect ! 👏👏👏❤️💕
Glad you like it! Thank you 🤗
Nice job 👍 thank you 😊.
Really pleased you enjoyed it 🤗. Thank you!
@@KoalaSewing You welcome.
Excellent!
Thank you! Glad you like it 😊
....just immerse and soak overnight in hot water and any cheap brand of Nappy Sanitiser.....built up grease and burnt-on gunk will just wipe away.
@@quantitativediseasing9988 .....Really? Start off, with hot water....and allow to soak overnight.....I’m well aware that hot water eventually goes cold.... Good Grief!
Will have to try this
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment. Let me know how it goes :-)
Merciiiii!
My pleasure, any time 😉
Vey beautiful hands.
Brilliant.x
Really pleased you enjoyed it. Thank you!
Amazing
Soak overnight in Ariel washing powder. Then put in the
Dishwasher on a Hot wash cycle. Repeat was if needed. 👍
would it be better to place the racks in dishwasher since it is small?
I am going to give it a go for sure! what type of oven cleaner did you use? what brand?
Hi, sorry for the late reply. It's a Domol oven cleaner. It's an ordinary oven cleaner from my local store. You could use whatever cleaner of your choice to get the same results. Cling film or garbage bag keeps the cleaner from drying out and flowing down.
@@KoalaSewing thanks! I tried it and works beautifully!
Great video! Can you use any oven cleaner to do this?
You can use your regular /any/ oven cleaner. The wrap will prevent it from dry out and flow down.
@@KoalaSewing oh awesome! that's nice to know that you can use whatever cleaner of your choice to still get the same results. Thank you for making such a great video that is straight to the point and has so much value. Please continue to make more amazing videos. Take care!
Thank you, I'm glad that you found it helpful ;)
I am going to try this on the stainless steel racks inside my Weber grill. But they get way dirtier (you can't see the metal) than the racks in this video so I am unsure if it will work.
I really hope it works out 🤞. I would be interested to hear about your experience 🙂🤝
Please could you possibly give us an update once you've tried this technique, Sir? Thank you.
This comment was worth everything! Don't know why I didn't think of that!
Wow !
brilliant
Thank you, that's real nice!
Thank u! My mum is making clean the oven and I’ve scrubbed for over 20 mins and nothing was happening 😭 and then I thought about CZcams! Where did you buy your oven spray from? Xx
Hi, thanks for watching! This is a common oven cleaner from my local store. You could use whatever cleaner of your choice to still get the same results. Cling film or a garbage bag will keep the cleaner from dry out and flow down.
What brand of oven cleaner do you recommend
I use an ordinary oven cleaner from my local store. You could use any cleaner of your choice to get the same results. Cling film or garbage bag keeps the cleaner from drying out and flowing down. Thereby it extends the time of the cleaner exposure to the surface.
Wow!!
I have someone to look after all this side of things. She loves it.
Great, thanks so much for stopping by 🙂
Fantastic
Glad you like it 🤗 Thanks for stopping by!
I use the odorless oven cleaner and will give this hack a try
Thanks for stopping by! Let me know how it goes 🤗
Clever
Just throw them in the dishwasher every couple of weeks
Care with the dishwasher. The salt impacts on the metal and may discolour the racks.
What if you don’t have a dishwasher
@@trevm02: Marry one.
what is your oven racks are larger
Wonder if baking soda paste & vinegar would work wrapped up??
I've never tried it, but it's interesting. Share your experience, please, if you'll try this cleaning way.
I re-watch this video because tomorrow I am going to clean my oven using a self cleaning oven and oven cleaner. My oven racks are the kind that slide in so I don't have oven racks on the side. But what I do to help a little bit is I put aluminum foil on the bottom and that saves sometime and cleaning. But what I would like to know is how do people clean the top of the oven? I mean like the inside top of the oven because everything always gets splattered up there and you can't remove the coil. I'm hoping that the self cleaning part of this oven will do its job it's a used oven so I don't know how this will happen but I'm going to try these ideas
Thanks for coming back to my video. To the hard-to-reach places, I use a wet cloth wrapped around a chopstick or something like that. Since it's not burnt-on dirt and grease, but just ash, everything goes well. How was your cleaning? Did it work out?
Super
Thanks for watching!
How big is that pan they go in. ?
My pan is 43 x 35 cm (17" x 14"). But you can use any other cleaner-resistant surface to soak the racks.
I use ammonia in a hefty bag. Soak overnight.
what oven cleaner did you use?
Oh, I don't remember. Anyway, it doesn't matter. You can use your regular oven cleaner. The wrap will not let it dry out and flow down - that's the trick.
okay thank you
Or call your local Oven Wizard
I wonder what their price range for these services is...
Soak in a caustic soda solution..
Oven was brand new!!!!!
This oven is just over six years. I cook in it once or twice a week, no more. But after pyrolytic self-cleaning, the inside of the oven really looks brand new. I wish I could clean the racks and trays the same way 🙂. But the manual forbids doing it.
You are doing really well because it looks brand new!!! I cook in mine every day and have been looking for a cleaning solution for years. When I clean my oven it takes hours. Thank you for the video and response.
I've used oven cleaner for years, but my newish (3 years) pyrolytic oven has cheap racks and the chromium plating is coming off in places.
So sorry that it happened with your racks so quickly. Do you remove the racks before doing self-cleaning?
@@KoalaSewing Of course. I should have bought a more expensive European oven such as Miele. I will eventually take them to get re chrome plated I suppose.
I must ask my wife how she cleans ours .......(I'll just leave that there for you)
Has your wife spotted this post yet, are you still alive? 🤣😂🤣
@@lindak8664 Sorry for the delay in responding,I just got out of hospital🤕..my thanks to those doctors and their discretion in removing that rolling pin.
😂🤣😂
What do is to put my racks and anything
else removable from oven, into a plastic dustbin bag.
Once in the bag, spray the cleaner into the bag, then
Seal and leave in a warm place, in the outside sunshine
for as long as possible, or 1 hour minimum .
Then remove from bag and clean off outside etc.
No muck indoors etc .
Tie up empty bin bag and discard in trash etc .
Simple !
🇬🇧✔️
👍👍👍
Thank you 😊
A much easier way is to pour washing soda into boiling water and place oven racks into soak. All residue wipes off !!
One more way is always better than the only one 😉. Thanks for watching and comment!
What pan is big enough to place oven racks into? Even my sink is not big enough to lay the racks flat in it.
They were cleaner than most peoples cleaned oven racks
What abut cleaning the glass?
Oh, I wish I had some magic trick for my oven glass 🙃
Rub dishwasher tablets on the glass
I use a glass scraper it works fantastic try it.
@@evehsv5556 Is this the one used to clean a glass ceramic cooktop?
@@KoalaSewing I wish I could load a photo of it for you it cleans the glass completely I’ll search for the proper name for it I live in Australia so it’ll be what we call it but you may recognise it anyway lol.
But what is the product? What is thee name of the "oven cleaner"?
I didn't focus on the oven cleaner brand in the video because you can use your regular /any/ oven cleaner. The wrap will prevent it from drying out and flowing down.
I never saw an oven with racks on the side panel. Or with a large tray like the one you used to hold them in.. Is this a European thing?
Yes, it's a European brand Zanussi. It really isn't a small oven capacity of 74 liters.
Thank you, will try this........I haven’t a dish washer, he died five years ago!
Thanks so much for stopping by. I'll be glad if you let me know how it goes 🤗
Be sure not to leave the racks in when using self-cleaning ovens, the high heats hurts the chrome finish. Also, will oven cleaner hurt chrome plated steel racks, but not stainless steel?
There is nothing eternal... but yes, self-cleaning will damage racks and trays immediately. Thanks for watching and comment!
I have heard that even though a manufacturer says that you can use oven cleaner on your oven racks that there are horror stories to the contrary.
I am going to try... Putting a bowl of water in the oven on very high heat and steam. Let cool mostly. Then soak in Dawn dishwashing liquid. 🤔........
This is my kinda lazy.. Doing this, this week.
MRS L, I'm liking your style, I'm doing mine today!🙏
Come on clean something that needs cleaning Good though
Soda crystals work well as well left to soak in hot water
Soda is a classic 🙂. But I have never been able to get the perfect result with it. In any case, it's good that there is more than one way to solve our kitchen troubles. Thanks for watching and commenting 🤝
How to clean the roof and sides?
I don't think I could give good advice on how to clean inside an oven. The self-cleaning program of my oven saves me from this work. Phillip, let me invite you to watch the video on my channel. There I tried to show how self-cleaning works.
@@KoalaSewing An honest reply - thank you. 😘
With Oven Cleaner . . .
Ok, how to clean inside the oven easily?
My oven has pyrolytic self-cleaning. The cleaning cycle heats the oven to a high temp and turns grime and grease into ash. Then I just wipe inside the oven with a damp cloth. Sadly, I still have to clean the racks, trays, and oven door by hand. So, I'm looking for an easier way to do that. As for the self-cleaning oven, let me invite you to watch the video on my channel. There I tried to show how it works.
I put them in a plastic garbage bag..that way you don’t really need a tray for them to sit in, just set on a large towel.
A garbage bag is a great idea and is always at hand too 👍. I will definitely try it during one of the next cleanings. Thank you for the tip!🙂
They were hardly even grubby
Everything is relative 😉 My racks took about 3 hours of soaking. Soaking of too dirty ones will take all night. You'll get great results, anyway.
These are not racks, they’re the rack supports. I don’t have a bath or anything large enough for the actual racks to soak in.
Why have we got all this ironmongery in our ovens at all? The shelves fitted fine as they were.
So that we always have something to wash and clean 😉
Or put them in a trash bag?
Great idea 👍 I think a trash bag would most definitely work too. Besides, it's always at hand. Remove air from the bag as much as possible for a better fit.
Baking soda and vinegar didn’t work for me. Racks are very dirty, greasy and never cleaned for a year
This way should help. Just soak them overnight, and it will work 🤞
If only the oven shelf sockets could be replaced easily, with Neff you have to dismantle the oven
Except for the first time, my racks are easily pulled out of the sockets. And I don't really have a choice because the manual recommends removing them before starting each oven self-cleaning.
And gloves
While this might work on oven racks with minor grime and grease.. let's see one that has been baked and caked on for a year or more and see how this method works..I clean apartments when tenants move out and they are 10 times worse than what is on this ad..
I think you could try to increase cleaning time and soak them under film overnight 🤝
Music is irritating.
