I CANNOT shift the grease on my glass oven door. I've tried all the commercial oven cleaners, caked on a bicarb and dishwashing liquid paste, tried a scourer and a scraper, IT WILL NOT BUDGE! Please tell me what you use?!

I had problems with cleaning mine too. Nothing would work until I sprayed it with "Bam Oven Cleaner" left it overnight. The next day, all the grime just wiped off. Pretty toxic stuff, but I have found that I now only have to clean with hot soapy water.

I second Bam Oven Cleaner, I left mine for 2 hours and my trays were pretty bad and I was amazed how much came off.

Not sure about leaving it overnight though. Our kitchen is pretty poorly ventilated so I worry about the kids breathing it in. DP has just taken them out for the day so I could try and get it off.

Shaklee oven cleaner - it's awesome and natural. Downside you have to order and wait for them to arrive from the US. http://www.shaklee.com/us/en/products.php?sku=00430 This post has been edited by lifehacker: 21/01/2013, 12:15 PM

It is very "take your breathe away" with the fumes even with all doors and windows open and a towel over my mouth and nose it makes me cough so take care!

I get my oven cleaned professionally. We moved in to a rental and the original house oven (15 years old) was nothing short of disgusting. $105 later, it looks brand new. Trays spotless. All non-toxic, no chemicals. No smell when they are finished, done in an hour. Amazing. I get it done once a year. I hate cleaning ovens.

bam is awesome, however be extremely careful with it. DH has a lovely indented scar, about the size of a 50c piece, where the bam ate into his leg
