@house_cat  Heart  Last thing I worried about when we bought a drop-in stainless stove/oven with a black glass door was something dripping down between the glass. But this post made me look. YES . . . there are oval slots on the top and bottom. Thought they were air holes to let hot air excape!! <face palm>

 

Perhaps I need to read the directions after almost 30 years of use! We do learn the best things on these Boards. Thanks so much!

Re: Oven cleaning - if true, it's a game changer!

I am so afraid to do this, saw a utube with a guy got a yard stick, one end put a microcloth with rubberbands around it sprayed cleaning solution. My luck, the stick will break or the cloth will get stuck in there. The real best way to do it is take off the door unscrew the screws & put it all back together. I never done it but if anyone has tried this let us all know. It does bug me seeing all the stuff in between the glass. My stove has 13yrs of build up so think it will be a problem.

Soaking a dried up dirty pan with hot water and a drier sheet is supposed to work wonders, soooo, I wonder if a dryer sheet wet with hot water and wrung out, then wrapped around whatever you decide to use to get between the glass, will work to break up dried up drips between the glass?

All of you with this slot...do you have an older oven?? Mine's newer and, nope, doesn't have it. Darn!
