Since there are a great number of these types of stoves in rental units this video is very helpful for people to not lose their security deposit! Also, lifting the top up people don't know! I shared this video already....
The first time I lifted mine up, it was an accidental discovery. I also discovered three extremely dead and desiccated roaches which may have been there since the Carter administration, embedded in a thin layer of grease-caked crumbs. The cleaning process took some time, to say the least. Eek.
Just moved into a new apartment and want to keep my kitchen is clean as possible, video is very helpful for people learning how to keep their homes clean and safe ♥️✝️
My late mother had the underside lined with aluminum foil for easy clean up and/or replacement. She wipe the coils of after every use (once it cooled down). Need to try the oven cleaner for the drip pan.
Thank you! Thank you! I’ve been asking for a video on this one. My condo came with this style stove top and I see no need to replace a working appliance. I remember my Mom cleaning when I was young but didn’t really know what would be safe chemically
This is an amazing video! I just had an issue with my smoke alarm going off when all I did was boil eggs… with the vent turned on… now I’m thinking the stove just needs a nice proper clean like this!
Thanks I really like that you shared how to clean the actual coil. I didn’t think putting any cleaner on it was a good idea too. Now I am excited to go clean my oven be4 I was intimidated not now!
Thanks, I haven't had an electric stove since I was 5 and now at 55 I'm in my first apartment with an electric range so I have no idea how to work it much less clean it, so this was extremely helpful.
I remember seeing you can pop the hood on the stovetop on TikTok for the first time, I was very surprised at how well the drip pans kept the underside clean. The issue I had was definitely the drip pans themselves but this video was great and my stovetop looks like new! Thank you so much for
I use my mom’s trick for cleaning the coils. Like Brandon said, pop them out and give them a good, slightly damp cloth clean. Pop them back in turner the burner’s on high for about 5 mins or less. The heat of the coils will burn off the little grease and grime spots that the damp cloth couldn’t clean up. Mom did this once a week and her coils always looked almost like new.
Excellent video! You can also use plastic razor blade to remove softened gunk. Then, no worry about scratches. Great suggestion for using the #0000 steel wool!
I just moved into my new unit about a week ago, and I have the same kind of stove. I've never had one of these in my life, so I'm getting adjusted to it. When I first used it, there was a little bit of clear smoke coming from one of the burners, but it went away after a couple of seconds, and I attributed to when it was cleaned before I moved. So far, everything is going well, but I'm definitely going to do this this weekend because I had no idea the entire stove top could lift up. Thank you so much! Also, when spraying the whole stove, is there any concern of the coil receptacle things getting wet? I'm afraid of electrocution 😂🤦🏾♀️
There are aluminum foil pans specifically made for the drip pans for these stoves. I’d recommend and suggest looking into those to preserve/extend the life of your drip pans.
If the drip pans show rust/corrosion of any kind, it's a good excuse to swap them out too. Mine usually last about two years no matter how hard I try to keep them clean...just got a fresh set on Amazon for $17. 😉
So, my round thing in the middle of the burner doesn't pop off. Can I use a cleaner on it when it's intact or is this bad for the burner as you mentioned in the video? I'm going to immerse them.
My stove looks just like yours (except the top is white), but I can't lift the top, and I'm not sure if that's because my stove top doesn't lift, or if it's a user error (lol). I'm afraid of using too much force and possibly hurting my stove 😬
But how do we dry the coils completely after cleaning? My flatmate told me that even tiny drops of water on the coil or on the drip pan can cause the stove to catch fire when we are cooking.
I have found my best/easiest way to make the coils look new...turn the burner(s) to HIGH. Stand by - do not leave the stove when doing this. Turn on the exhaust fan. Keep watching, and before you know it, all the grease, grime and dirt just burns away!. Turn the burner(s) OFF. You are done!
That’s how my mom did it growing up. Put them all on high and let the heat burn it off, then when cool wipe them down. Like you exhaust fan and plenty of ventilation.
Do be wary of the lift top tho folks. I’ve known about this feature for most of my life. But unfortunately the past three rental properties I have lived in did not have this feature on the range 😕
Despite cleaning troubles this is why running out to replace an appliance for a new one can be silly. Where are you going to find something that’s made to last like that today?
Those prongs that balance the stovetop aren't very sturdy. Be sure to take a picture of which slots and grooves they were in, or you'll be fighting with them like I was tonight, holding a crooked stovetop, when one came loose, and I couldn't remember which slots they were in. Then when I tried to match the other side, they wouldn't go in. Great tips though!
Thanks to you I've become a Dawn power wash addict; the stuff is fantastic for all around the house! Still not convinced, however, that Scrub Daddy isn't too harsh and abrasive....I do use that brand of scrubby sponge daily, but it doesn't seem so stiff and unforgiving. Perhaps I just need to take the plunge and try the big Daddy.
Recently just discovered that my cooktop *can* lift up, it's just held in place by two screws that were suuuuuuper gunked up. 🤨 Why it's secured by screws, I'll never know.
charged u for the drip tabs?? individually? 🤦🏽♀️ i feel like my landlord would do this.... so strict. they're gonna be giving the new tenants brand new anythinf this is why i don't understand why they're so strict on fixing like wall paper for example, they're gonna repaint it anyways.... lol

@@CleanThatUp thanks I learn to put the drop pan in the trash bag so Oxygen can't dry out the chemical.

Wow! Super impressed with the results! The stove is so shiny it looks brand new! ❤
I always think "huh what more can he teach me now, I'm sure i know everything there is by now," and yet every time I learn something new again😅
FINALLY!🙌🏽 Been hoping that you’d drop a video on how to clean electric stove tops
Mine has been in need of one 😅
Thank you so much Clean That Up🫶🏽
Thanks so much for watching!
You literally gave me exactly what I needed in the first 20 seconds😂
I watch your videos for emotional support. Thank you Brandon for cleaning that up!!
We bought oven liners to go inside and under the burners on top to line the stove. This makes for a smooth cleaning process. We watch all your videos!
Thank you! Thank you! I’ve been asking for a video on this one. My condo came with this style stove top and I see no need to replace a working appliance. I remember my Mom cleaning when I was young but didn’t really know what would be safe chemically
Hello I was wondering if you ever use steam cleaners? What do you think of them as a cleaning tool?
This is an amazing video! I just had an issue with my smoke alarm going off when all I did was boil eggs… with the vent turned on… now I’m thinking the stove just needs a nice proper clean like this!
Thanks I really like that you shared how to clean the actual coil. I didn’t think putting any cleaner on it was a good idea too. Now I am excited to go clean my oven be4 I was intimidated not now!
i’ve been staring at my stove for 20 minutes trying to figure out how to get these drip trays off. thanks!
Thank you. I clean mine often, but I learned a couple things.
Thanks, I haven't had an electric stove since I was 5 and now at 55 I'm in my first apartment with an electric range so I have no idea how to work it much less clean it, so this was extremely helpful.
This video was soooo helpful. I did not know the stove top could be open!!! Thank you
The tip on spraying the drip pans with oven cleaner and then putting in a garbage sack.. Thank You!
Amazing video! Literally life saving
Very helpful did not know the stove opened. This is my second electric stove in my lifetime at 2 different times in my life and I never knew
Man I'm truly thankful for this.
you taught this bachelor how to clean his first electric cooktop thanks bro!
I remember seeing you can pop the hood on the stovetop on TikTok for the first time, I was very surprised at how well the drip pans kept the underside clean. The issue I had was definitely the drip pans themselves but this video was great and my stovetop looks like new! Thank you so much for
You make it look so easy

Thanks so much for your videos! Can you please do one on cleaning moldy window tracks?
Found your videos on window tracks, thanks!!
this is very helpful, thanks!

You can always unplug the stove before you clean it and let it properly dry before plugging it back in
I love your content so much! Super helpful. Would you (or have you) do a “home made cleaners” series?
Thank you so much for all the valuable information really came in handy I appreciate you
First time watching your video and you earned a new sub!!
When I rented, I always covered the drip pans in aluminum foil! So much easier to keep clean!
Is it easy to get the grills back in once you take them out? I fear that I won't do it correctly.
Great video thank you! Very clear. Much appreciated 😊
GREAT VIDEO! I learned alot. Thank you so much for making this!
This looks super helpful
thanks, gonna do this tomorrow :)
What products do you use for shining chrome drip pans? Thanks!
I've seen cleaning people use a little red power brush to clean with. Do you have one and when would you use it? Thanks.
There are aluminum foil pans specifically made for the drip pans for these stoves. I’d recommend and suggest looking into those to preserve/extend the life of your drip pans.
If the drip pans show rust/corrosion of any kind, it's a good excuse to swap them out too. Mine usually last about two years no matter how hard I try to keep them clean...just got a fresh set on Amazon for $17. 😉
I didn't even know you could replace those
What about a cast iron gas stove? Could you please make a video on that?
So, my round thing in the middle of the burner doesn't pop off. Can I use a cleaner on it when it's intact or is this bad for the burner as you mentioned in the video? I'm going to immerse them.

Do you have the protective cover for this type of stove? Need badly.
Its like you were watching me stare at mine literally 19minutes ago 😮 what the actual hell
Perfect timing!
great tips and tricks, thxs for sharing...
Great Job, Thank You! 😊
Thank you so much,so helpful
What about a gas stove top.? I can only use soap and water. Still looks like there is a film on the top around the burners
I have the same question. I also have a gas stove.
Great info!
Where are you based out of? Strangley that kitchen setup looks so familiar..
Do I unplug it first or do I do it just like that?
Excellent video💯💯💯👍🏼
Thank’s.!!!!!!!!!!😮😅
But how do we dry the coils completely after cleaning?
My flatmate told me that even tiny drops of water on the coil or on the drip pan can cause the stove to catch fire when we are cooking.
Thanks
THANK YOU❤
The center of my coil does not remove from the burner. It has a hole container like thing underneath of it.
I have found my best/easiest way to make the coils look new...turn the burner(s) to HIGH. Stand by - do not leave the stove when doing this. Turn on the exhaust fan. Keep watching, and before you know it, all the grease, grime and dirt just burns away!. Turn the burner(s) OFF. You are done!
That’s how my mom did it growing up. Put them all on high and let the heat burn it off, then when cool wipe them down. Like you exhaust fan and plenty of ventilation.
Thanks ! I’ve never had a stove like this in my life ! So I was scared to clean it 😂
Is there a video for an oven with a glass top?
Do be wary of the lift top tho folks. I’ve known about this feature for most of my life. But unfortunately the past three rental properties I have lived in did not have this feature on the range 😕
You don’t say, how long should you leave the drip pans in the bags?
My coil is smoking. How can I make it stop?
My top won’t go back down and I can see the wires now 😢 I’ve cleaned it so many times idk what happened today
The landlord should have gotten in trouble for charging them that much. I saw a brand new stove listed for about 314.
Do I unplug it or what
do i need to burp the bag. also i like it when youre more chill.
I can't get mine to not stream.
I’ve tried to do that on my Magic Chef stove and it does not budge. Mine must not have that feature.
Check to see if the lever on the front, that is used to lock the door on self-cleaning ovens, is NOT locked. :)
Late to the game, but on some stoves, you hold both sides of the cooktop, pull forward a little, and lift up.
Unfortunately the lid of a stove does not lift if it is a 1978 one piece harvest gold double oven 😕It’s a pain to clean!
Despite cleaning troubles this is why running out to replace an appliance for a new one can be silly. Where are you going to find something that’s made to last like that today?

This is the Same stove top at my parents new house.
My face when you took the coils off and lifted the top up:😱
I need a shower now
Thanks to you I've become a Dawn power wash addict; the stuff is fantastic for all around the house!

I use the scrub daddy on everything especially my glass top stove. Plus I can mail back the old ones so they don’t go to a land fill.
I use scrub daddy on absolutely everything without a care in the world. Never had it scratch a thing. Best sponge in the world
A damp cloth is going to do absolutely nothing to clean a burner with burned on grease.
Fascinating, because it does every single time I clean my oven ☺️
Recently just discovered that my cooktop *can* lift up, it's just held in place by two screws that were suuuuuuper gunked up. 🤨 Why it's secured by screws, I'll never know.

Drip pans for this style of stove are cheap. I’d rather buy new ones than use oven cleaner.
I was making hot chocolate at 3 am and then it boiled over and got underneath...so yea(I'm a teenager)
you know u old if u watching ts 😭🙏
Thank you this was great !!
