I absolutely do not like to clean ovens

[Kalypso]

I just had to let that out.

 

Now on to the fridge. I don't like cleaning it either.

[Snickerdoodle]

oh, you just reminded me, I have the drawers to the fridge air drying on the table......

 

must get back to cleaning...

[OregonNative]

I've cleaned an oven once-where it self cleans. Good Heavens! I thought we would all have to put on HAZMAT suits. I've never used the store bought cleaners, but I'm sure they would make me pass out:tongue_smilie: I think I'd rather clean the fridge:D

Self clean. I'll never Easy Off again!

So with you on that. My refrigerator has been leaking from the freezer for a while. Pools of water in the crisper drawers. But I just can't seem to deal with it.

 

I'm adding ceiling fans to the list of things I hate to clean.

I hate cleaning the oven too. I mentioned it in this thread. :P

[Hikin' Mama]

I wouldn't know if I like cleaning the oven or not, because I've never done it in 17 years of marriage. And I have a self-cleaning oven. I figure it gets really hot in there every time I use it; it's clean enough! :lol:

 

The rest of my house is very clean ,though, I assure you. I'm very anal!

You're supposed to clean them????

You're supposed to clean them????

 

:lol: That was my thought, too, but I was afraid to post it!

I have a double oven, and the top is self cleaning and the bottom one is not. The self cleaning one always has to be scrubbed around the door. This took awhile. My kids always manage to spill things in both ovens, so they tend to get dirty fast.

 

I just finished the fridge - I had a couple of helpers, thank goodness.

 

Now I'm defrosting our deep freezer which is supposed to be frost-free but has 1/4 inch of ice in the bottom of it.

 

So, I am done for the day. Getting ready to move is no fun. I'm going to have a beer because, unfortunately, I am out of Mike's.

Huh? Clean them? That must be something else that my great husband does instead of my doing it.:D

Seriously, I have never, okay, once, cleaned an oven. :001_smile:

Isn't that what self-cleaning means? It cleans itself, right?:001_huh:

Momto5girls, you only need to clean the oven when your pavlova tastes of roast lamb...

I don't clean mine either. DH has always been in charge of making sure there is always aluminum foil neatly covering the bottom of the oven. If something gets messy, you just throw out the old foil and he'll meticulously put down fresh. :D I guess that might not work for gas though? We have always had electric.

What you need is a Wood Combustion Stove.

They self clean. you just heat them up really hot and it all gets carbonized, and when stove cools down, just sweep out the ovens.

I do have to oil the stove every week though. It is cast iron , and gets rusty looking otherwise.
