To have not cleaned my oven once in 6 months.

[Brooksey5]

And don’t I bloody regret it. Currently trying to make the inner glass clear again whist I wait for the cleaning stuff to work on the inside.

Haven’t cleaned the oven once since we moved in May. How often do you normally clean your oven?

Always seems like such a big job.

Cleaned it yesterday for the first time since we moved in nearly a year ago. The oven is pyrolytic too so we really don’t have an excuse for such laziness!

Barely ever.
Only when glass looks really grubby.
And of co the the high temps kill bugs.. which is why we’re all still alive!

Can’t remember. It’s DH’s responsibility and he’s a lazy shite so I suspect not for a couple of years.

Cleaning the oven was part of late pregnancy nesting for me... youngest is 4

Not often enough, I dread cleaning the oven. We moved into our house and the oven was left (only a year old) and it was vile. It got cleaned then and I kind of keep on top of it but it’s no where near clean. Maybe I should pay for someone to professionally clean it

@Newernewist I use a bit of kitchen spray with bleach but I reckon it'd work without

You've just reminded me to book the oven cleaner to come before Christmas, I hate doing it myself and I'm crap at it anyway so it's worth every penny of £35!

Used Oven pride moving out of rental house and the oven looked better than when I moved in. £1 from the pound shop and cleans like a dream.

Every week

I have pyrolytic ovens but you still need to take out the metal racks and clean those separately which is pretty tedious.

I get a man in to clean mine every 6mths and wipe up spills as I go. I'm a bit horrified that some people haven't cleaned them for years!

Every couple of months. I use "Elbow grease" spray and it's so easy! Literally spray, leave for 5 mins and then wipe! Used to use oven pride but hate the smell. Also have used steam cleaner attachment and that's pretty good too.

My husband cleaned ours a few weeks ago.

I am pretty sure its the first time its been cleaned since we bought the house in 2013.

The man is coming this week to clean both of mine AND replace a bulb. No way am I mucking about with oven cleaner, that stuff is corrosive.

I do mine once a year maybe.

I wipe it after every use with a soapy e cloth.

It would smell if I didn’t. Like next doors gas bbq that they never clean and stinks of rancid grease every time they use it 🤢

I usually clean mine right before my mother-in-law's annual visit.

@Troopers lane How did you blow it up by cleaning it?😆 laughing with you, not at you, it's just the sort of thing I'd do!!

Mines booked in for first week of December. Brand new 2 years ago. Never cleaned it. Having a new kitchen though and the Oven position will change so visitors will be able to see it's dirty 😂

I'm booking a man to come and do it right after I'm done with all the messy Christmas and New Year cooking.

I think I might win the 'dirty oven' contest.

I got a man in to clean it recently, and I calculated I hadn't cleaned it for 15 years.

Yes, it was minging. I have no excuse except I don't like cleaning ovens and I live a busy life.

No regrets.

I put in an oven liner when it was new and have only had to clean the liner

I find those good for catching the muck that otherwise welds itself to the bottom but food still steams and spits in the oven, the racks, sides, roof and door still need doing. You see it more with glass doors.

I dunno, maybe we’re just unusually messy cooks.

Ours has never been cleaned in all the time we've lived here...so 4 years. It looks fine, if I spill something inside it I wipe it up, but I can't be bothered with deep cleaning.

Three years since mine was cleaned. no plans to do it anytime soon

I'm still alive...

DankGraveGhouls wow your dad is Mr Muscle, so cool.
