To get someone else to clean the oven?!

[berri]

Has anyone ever used any of those companies who come to your house and clean all the bits in the back of their van?

Sounds like genius - think it's about £60 which I'd gladly pay if it meant I didn't have to do it....

Or am I being a lazy arse

Oooh I would come and do it for half the price, I love cleaning ovens

I used one a few months ago - It was amazing and soooo worth it!! It looked brand new. After I got over the shame of showing him how bad it was I was fine

YANBU.

They leave it good as new.

But the man did tell me most people clean their oven out between his visits.

I'm with UniMummy on this. It's the best £60 you'll ever spend.

In fact, I now get the man to come annually and only clean the oven door in between times

Ha ha IWNH - really??!! I don't mind the odd bit of cleaning, but....really??!! Bet your house is lovely and clean & tidy!

Have now made my mind up - feel free to recommend companies in Surrey (is that allowed on MN?)....and I will add the £60 to the shopping budget as I'd have spent about the same on 50 bottles of Cillit Bang!

Aaah I actually feel relieved now.....

Well worth it, even the metal racks come up all sparkly and they don't leave any mess or marks on the floor.

Worth every penny if you go for a good one. Not all are equal, though. It really does look like new afterwards - they took the glass panel out and everything last time.

YANBUAA.

YANBU but I ahve just used my first ever oven pride and am amazed by how well it worked and how easy it was. I keep turning the light on to look and it's been over a week now.
The sense of satisfaction and "I did that" is second only to the feeling I get when I look at the DCs and it's a close second

YANBU. They do a good job, even if you are a slattern like me and leave it 3 years between cleans.

mine was filthy - we've been here since Nov 07 and it hadn'treally ever had a proper clean

OVEN PRIDE

I want one!

an oven, oven pride or a man who does?

Confuzled who did you use?

SPB - is that a company or are you telling me to use it!

Worth every penny - I either get a man in or it doesn't get cleaned at all tbh.

We have used The Oven Cleaning Co for years and they've always been good and reliable.

I get mine done every year - worth it. He usually charges around £50 for a double oven and spends up to 2 hours doing it. I think you could find someone a bit cheaper than £60 if you ring around a bit.

no it's a box you get at the supermarket - you stick the shelves in a bag, throw the gunk in, whizz it round a bit, pour gunk on the inside of the oven, leave it a few hours or overnight if it's really crusty like mine, rinse the next morning et voila sparkly oven for a bit of whizzing and rinsing and under a fiver

Yes I really do like cleaning ovens, the rest of my house on the other hand could do with a good tidy

my oven, just wish I'd had a before picture

Definitely get Oven Pride, just £3.

Your crusty oven will be sparkly again.

Best £40 I have ever spent -due to return next week!

Sod that, £60??!!

My dad likes taking our oven apart, brings his own Oven Pride and leaves no mess! Only costs me a cup of tea and a biccie...maybe I should rent him out....

Wow, looks good as new! You can probably imagine what mine looks like at the moment

Lovely shiny oven SPB.

I use A cleaner oven, they ring me every 6 months, I love having a clean oven. They make it look like brand new!
