Started watching the video thinking I'd do this on the weekend... then after he disassembled the door, I just concluded that an unclean oven door gives the oven "character" and made different plans for the weekend.
Your comment made me laugh so hard I cried! I’ve taken the door out to clean inside of oven but never the the class! I’m 72 now and lucky if I can clean the oven or remove the door🙃
😆😆😆😆😆😆😆😆
Too funny 😆
Lmao! We must be on the same wave length. Midway through the video, I just said "No frickin way am I do this" 😂 I can just see me not getting the oven door back together and trying to explain it to the landlord
😂 I said out loud to myself: “ I don’t think so!” No one can really see the oven door since the oven isn’t on too often...plus my husband doesn’t care and right now it’s just us.
Started watching video, stopped after the oven door was removed and had 3 panes of glass--this would be an all day project and my husband would be the one removing and reinstalling the door; his schedule would not allow it. I don't have the strength or wherewithal for the project (in my mid-70s). Thought the first idea, reaching into vent holes with something resembling a yardstick w/paper towels wrapped around the end, sounded plausible. However, I envisioned removing the stick but thepaper towels remain between the glass panes. Dirty window better than framed dirty paper towels. LOL
Electrolux in Sweden makes ovens with the doors separate easy for cleaning. No housewife would go through this work. One needs a Phd to clean ovens and oven doors in the USA ! Mercy !!
Great point can't see it should be drawn out,if it easy to change the glass then you can simply rotate and reverse as getting the glass fully clean is near impossible
@@andrewm8831I'm a housewife and I wouldn't even think of doing that I'd have to get my husband to do the work thanks
Exactly! It’s too complicated!
@@lauriebashaw6862 You could do it & then you can give yourself praise & a pat on the back for being able to do what any man can do.
Need to make ovens easy to clean to get to next glass in between.
This video is totally stressing me out! All I can think of is not remembering how it goes back together and having parts left over lol.
Haha, well, it's not for everyone. For multi-step tasks like this, I take a pic at each major step then label a small zip-lock plastic bag with that step's #. Then I put the screws, nuts & bolts, etc. for that step into the bag and note that step on my notepad/clipboard. It's a bit slow while taking things apart, but the payoff comes during assembly when I don't have to remember where things went or which screws or bolts were used along the way. And now, with today's mobile phones, a "pic" can also be a "motion photo" -- meaning it's a short video clip. (A feature on my Samsung GS9 phone.) 😁
Check out the method GE Appliances reccomends haha theres a video on youtube, they remove the door as one piece and leave it like that. they just dip a towel in soapy water and then tie it onto a yardstick and poke it between the glass from the bottom
OMG!!!!! I would never even attempt tp do that!!! I would never get it back together!!!! LOL. I don't know why they just don't make it easier to do!!!
Take pictures of the parts in order how you're dissemble them
That is what I thought half way through the video. No way.
I thought same thing.....ohhhhh
@@mirianduran9753 That is a very good idea.
My early-70s oven doesn’t have the vents on top-it doesn’t even have the screws!
Guess I’ll just have to buy a new stove.
My husband will never do this to help me... appreciate your hard work with this
We took it apart, and cleaned the glass beautifully. The new stove will be delivered next week.
Funnnniiiieee!
I just hang 2 dish towels on the rack on the outside of the door to hide the mess. This is too much work for me!
😁👍
Same LOL 🤣
🤪
Lol 🤣🤣🤣
Great idea!
This video is by FAR the best video I found about how to clean the oven in between glasses. You were to the point and detailed. Thank you so much...!!!
Thank you so much, I really appreciate the kind words!
I love this guy!! I had no idea you could ever get between the glass to clean it--I'd assumed i was just stuck with a nasty looking over door forever. Thanks for this cool video.
@@bsrbck thank you! This is why I don't do home repairs on my own!
Ok I did on my 2020 GE profile oven (three panes of glass). It took about 45 minutes. Need a phone camera , Need a T15 TORX driver and 1/4 inch nut driver. Remove door and lay it on a rug or towel on floor or bench. Remove top two top screws from top inside of door. Just loosen enough to free them. Turn door over and remove three machine screws with nut driver at bottom. Other than that pretty much like his video. Suggest nitrile gloves to handle glass. The two inner panes are framed by a steel double channel. There is a tab on one corner that you bend up to release the frame and carefully slide out glass panels for cleaning. The glass is thin so have a towel on a flat surface to clean them. As I said , take picture along the way and Mark holes where screws go if you need to. There are four sets of screws all same length and type with each set so it’s hard to confuse things.
So when are you coming to my house to do this for me? There’s now way I could get the door back together and have a working oven.
Lol. I just said the same thing. Lol.
Same 😅👍
Getting it taken apart is waaaay easier than putting it back together-esp for someone like me!😳😁
Great job!
Gotta use your brain power! ha! 🧠⚡
I don't own my own oven since I live in an apartment so...I am going to put my 'decorative' kitchen towel to use by placing it on the door handle of my stove. Problem solved!😊
Wow, I have never seen this done before! It was nice seeing you patiently & intelligently going about this task. It is not a real common skill you know. Thanks
Thank you so much for watching the video and taking the time to comment!
Organization, common sense, and being able to turn a screw driver. If you lack these skills that's on you.
Ty Never knew we could clean the inside door of oven
I've always wondered how to clean that, thank you so much!!
Soft scrub and flat brush( for kitchen cooktop) will do faster and better job then windex
You did a great job cleaning that door. The door and its windows look brand new again. I have never seen anyone do this door off or even further cleaning between the oven door windows before. Thank you for posting this and for doing a great job.
Thank you so much for the kind words and taking the time to comment!
@@ThatDadMike You are welcome.
Me when I’m done, where do these pieces go
Ha! Me to sister!!
Yep! Lol
As long as you don't have a piece left over, like Ikea furniture.
When I can’t put them all together? I am screwed.
Same here! :D
Wow I'm surprised at how many people aren't willing to even try this. Those streaks would bug the hell out of me and fixing that is perfectly straightforward and only a tiny bit fiddly. Thanks for this great video :-)
GREAT!!! I could not figure out how to take the door off, so I just unscrewed the screws and cleaned mine that way. This is cool.
Can u also post the video the way you cleaned up.
Looks like the makers would make a easy way to clean the glass. They know it's gonna get dirty.
You're common sense to their clueless ears!
You haven’t tried fixing cars then, either? lol
I've wondered this so many times about so many things. Nobody appears to consider functionality when designing things.... Or even when picking things to buy for your own home. I have a friend who just had to have this big deep squared sink for her new kitchen. Is it beautiful? Yes!! Is it the most god awful effing sink to actually use? Also yes!! So hard to rinse shit down the drain as it sticks in the corners.... Annoying!!! I think so the angles through ahead of time.... I'm the 'what if' girl!
Thank you! I have had drips between the glass on my oven doors bothering me for a while now. It was so great to watch your video and then be able to take care of my double oven. It looks new again!
Thank you for taking the time to comment - I am so glad the video helped and you got your door clean!
To much work. They need to build them better to clean.
I don't think they're meant to be cleaned 🙄 It goes without saying that I agree with you, though, on that they should take that into consideration.
You are both missing the point. They want to encourage you to BUY A NEW ONE even when the old one is working. Consumerism...see how your rebelling against a clean you can do yourself?
Just because someone disagrees with you doesn’t mean he is missing the point! Only a complete fool would buy a new appliance because of dirty glass!! My ovens have never had dirt between the glass panes, but if it happened, I certainly would not purchase a new oven. Maybe you should be careful, and take care of your oven door so it does not get dirty! Taking apart an oven door probably ruins the seal anyway.
Oven doors are built the way that they are for saftey reasons! The government sets the guidelines, manufacturers follow within the saftey specs.
@@leighsutherland6222 Then it should interest you to note that there are MANY fools. Just because you haven't seen them doesn't mean they don't exist. I've seen them.
Omg! I know it looks simple but you did such a great job you just made it look too easy.Thank you for this video.
Thank you so much!
Thank you for ZOOMING IN on what you were doing to unhook the door. So many people forget the “how” in their “how to videos” and sometimes a verbal description isn’t enough.
Thank you so much - glad it helped!
husband and I just finished this... allllllllllll this.. over 5 hours. all taken apart.. but it was filthier than this... time after time of corn starch and vinegar.. lestoil.. steel wool.. mr clean eraser... s.o.s.. we finally got it.. perfect i would say.. and then the outside. then the inside... without any abrasive stuff. What a job. I think we could actually sell it for new now. This man's oven wasnt that dirty if he just passed a rag and the dirt was gone. Ive had mine for 7 years, cleaned it daily, but somehow, spilling my coffee in it yesterday didnt help it... but was worth today's effort. Now I'll do lilke Mary Cahill.. Ill hang a couple of dish towels on the rack and wont ever look inside, even when I bake!!!!
Excellent job! I bet it looks outstanding!!
WOW! Thank You So Much for sharing this wonderful Video! Guess What My Hubby is going to do Next Weekend?? Yes! You Got it! Clean My Oven Door! Shhhh! Don’t tell him, it’s a Surprise! God Bless You, Stay Safe and Healthy!
Thank you so much for watching the video and taking the time to comment! I promise I won't tell him 🙂
Thank you for sharing this! I didn’t know you could do this . I would never try it I would never get it back right. Lol
I thought the dirty glass was like seasoning the oven just like cast iron skillet. Probably best I continue to think that!😁
I won't attempt it but your directions are very clear and concise at least. Nice video.
Thank you thank you! I would love once again to be able to check on what is in the oven without having to open up the oven door! We've actually wondered if there was a way to clean the window to the oven!
Thanks for this video! You gave good instructions and showed the best camera angles! I've struggled with doing this in the past (and took it apart with no idea how to reassemble it. Luckily my hubby got it back together.)
Thank you so much! I appreciate you taking the time to comment!
Great video, my oven door needs cleaning bad. I had no idea you could clean it like that. Thank You
Just use the ruler. It took just a few minutes with a damp rag held around a yard stick with a couple of rubber bands.
He did find that there are 3 windows in that door. I wonder if the yardstick and cloths would work on that type door.
Can you demonstrate how
Finally.... An actual useful video... Thanks!
Thanks for letting us how to get clean oven glass.
InshaAllah I will try to follows step by step as per your instructions.
Thanks once again.
Thanks, video was very helpful. The screws initially looked all the same. I suggest marking which screws go exactly where because the threads are different.
Great suggestion!
Cool. Ain't gonna happen.
I wondered, how does it get dirty? Greece must pop up or out into this window?
Nope. Too much.
🤣🤣
You do such a great job explaining and showing the steps!!!
Thank you so much!!!!
Some door panels have a retaining mastic which stops the glass rattling in the metal frame. To remove the glass, apply gentle pressure in the opposite to the retainer mastic to slide the panels out.
Don’t use metal tools on the glass or it’s direct fixtures as cracking, fracturing or breakages will result. I wouldn’t use a steel ruler near the window to clean it as it it could easily penetrate the cleaner cloth or material used to bind it.
Those doors are awkward and dependent on the state of your oven, you may need to place a protective covering on the floor in front of it before starting to disrupt any of the fixtures/hinges.
I've been cleaning mine with a hanger & cloth sliding through the groves like his first example, it doesn't take that long but I don't let mine get very dirty (I do it often) also I only have two glass slabs.
I do not want to get messed with oven door lol. Thanks for sharing your experience.
Wow I was going to try this but after you found 3 layers I’m not so sure I could do it by myself.
It looks very easy to take off but to assemble is very hard thank you for sharing
Hopefully the video helps! It's not too difficult, just take your time and a lot of pictures and you will do great!
I have the same issue with drips between the inner glass on a GE oven. Will use my phone camera to take photos as I go. Suggest using light pieces of cardboard and punch screws through it to keep each section’s hardware together or , possibly baggies.The third pane makes the oven more energy efficient , but not perfectly sealed for preventing drips.
I am truly impressed! 👍🏼 If I did it...I wouldn’t be.😆
Hi. Had anxiety the whole video! 😂. I have an appliance warranty thru Sears and they cleaned it for me once. The next time he came for a service call he said they don’t do that anymore because of the liability! So bravo to you and thx for sharing.
BTW I’m going to watch you several more times to get the courage to do this. Wish me luck people!!
Good luck, you will do great!!!! FYI that my door weighed about 25 pounds when removed.
Marvelous!!! You are are wonderful!!! Thank you, Mike! Love the music, too:)
So impressed and high five!!! For me I will buy a new one and just cut to the chase because in the end I will either break the glass or never get it put back together 🤣
Thank you so much for the kind words and taking the time to comment!
@@ThatDadMike you’re most welcome and loved seeing how this can be done. Wish I had your skill set!! Keep up the good work and thank you again for sharing this with us all.
I’d probably have to buy a new oven. I used to pull the door off to replace the heating element when I was an apartment manager. But they pulled off without any trouble. Thank you for this information.
Never ever, I would drop the glass, drop the screws. No no no, removing the door will do. I can then stuff a wet cloth between the layers and work on it that way. But great presentation so thank you for your effort.
Wow. I had a good dad, but not this good!
Oh so there is hope. Thanks for sharing.
It is wonderful to learn how to do this type of cleaning. Thank You
Nice job. Seems your wife is a lucky woman to have you!
I need to do this to my oven. From watching the video though, I suddenly like the rustic look.
When I remove screws from assemblies like this, I store the screws in the holes from which I removed them. Especially when it involves screws of differing sizes.
When I work with loose glass panes, I wear gloves, in case the glass slides, I don't get cut; and, I don't leave fingerprints when I handle the clean glass.
I’ve seen this done but I’m not brave enough to try it. You would think that, with all the technology these days that someone would invent a stove that is super easy clean. One that you didn’t have to take apart to clean. Same with windows! So frustrating!
I understand why people have dirty glass oven doors, including mine. No way....
With the removal of the first screw, I'm already imagining how I'd need to label each screw and take pics for reassembly. Why do they even put windows in oven doors? Does anyone ever look in the window to check on their food?
I would have drawn a map.
Exactly, labeling is required.
Great idea dummy me did`nt think of some thing like that even though the stove instructions say be careful when cleaning as to not let fluids go down the vent slots in the top of the door.
I would need to hire someone to do this for me! Lol.
The. door would be in bits on the side and I would be in bits on the floor😂
With no dinner! 😁
I’ve done this. It’s not that hard. Well worth the effort.
I have, too. I’m a 5’3” female, so it wasn’t easy, but I accomplished it. Take pictures as you go.
@@dale3404 Yes. I did too ! Thank goodness we have our phones now to do that.
I have a funny story about taking something apart and putting it back together. I taught fourth grade for 30 years. I had to take apart an overhead projector to clean the two pieces of glass and change a bulb and remove a bunch of dust and a few bugs. I took it apart, cleaned everything and put it back together. Turned it on and it worked great. About that time my principal came in and checked on my progress. I proudly showed him the newly cleaned and working projector. And I raised a baggie from the desk and said “ I even have some left over parts!” We had a good laugh after he got over his shock. At least it worked. I don’t know what the extra parts were for to this day! 🤔🤔🤔😁😁😁
@@cathynuytten798
😂
I’ve done mine this way for years.
thanks! great tutorial ! so worth the work to have clean oven glass!
I’m fortunate in that my oven door has a black front so the glass window does show until I turn the light on. Yay me! Sidebar, I only bake Christmas cookies so I don’t have a dirty oven LOL
Really good job.. I’m impressed.
Wow! Didn’t know you could do that!
You lost me in the first 3 seconds... watching you remove the door. That's just not going to happen in my house, LOL! Thanks anyway!
Same here, thought this is my Sunday sorted. Then he said, remove the door. Just no.
Thanks for this video. I knew it would be a big project. All that glass. Can't wait to get it all clean.
Thanks for taking the time to watch the video! Just take your time and you will do great! The results were so worth it!
To those looking and thinking “it’s too complicated for me” don’t give up until you check your own oven first.
This oven demonstrated here seems to be way more complicated than my Indesit oven to clean in between the glass.
With mine and I suspect many other makes too there’s no need to remove the door at all , let alone all the casing either
Just drop the door down unscrew two obvious screws holding two small brackets in place that is holding the glass to the door , prise up the inside glass carefully using a butter knife or screwdriver and clean the insides of the two panes of glass ...replace and your done ....5 mins tops.
This video although well presented is not typical of the faff you need to go through to clean the inside of the glass
wether this channel presenter knows it or not he has one the most overly complicated ovens to clean inside the glass I’ve ever seen .
Trust me , before you give-up-the-ghost on even looking at yours based on what is presented to you on this video go and look at yours first ...it’s blatantly obvious what 2 screws needs to be unscrewed and removed before you need to think about disassemble the entire door like this video shows
Agreed, all ovens are different so it's definitely worth a look at your own oven.
You are impressive! I thought for sure one of the glass windows were going to break.
Hi that dad Mike remind me those type of ovens great 👍 video my friend ❤️🇬🇧👍David
Thank you so much!
On my oven (Stove) you can simply slide the inner glass out, clean the inner and outer and slide it back. No screws or dismantling.
Thanks Dad!
You are wonderful....thank you.
Thank you so much!
Very interesting, never knew it could be cleaned, but wwaaayyy too scary taking it apart!
But I subcribed just in case someone ever asks, lol.
Good job you’re hired😊
Very informative. Am I missing something, I see a cotton gasket in the reassembly but did not see it in the disassembly. How did I miss it?
Thank you so much for taking the time to watch the video! That was a piece of heat resistant fabric that was laying around the perimeter of the outer window on my oven model and not attached. It gets sandwiched between the outer window and the inner frame. My apologies the edit did not show it as well as it could have.
Watched the video ... did it. Next time I will have someone do it with me.
Just passing on something I learned from a repair man. You should never line your oven or burner with tin foil. The tin foil actually causes too much heat & ruins the coils, & could potentially cause a fire.
Thank you, I appreciate that! We removed the foil and no longer use it to line the bottom of the oven.
Boy, you guys are smart
That was really helpful. Thanks.
Thank you - glad the video helped!
Well done ! Brilliant
My oven door just has clips at the top and once released you can lift out each layer of glass. So easy.
Wow! I wish they were all that easy!
Check out the kitchens in a restaurant some time, like the ovens, sheet pans, cooking pans et al. Keeping them "like new" certainly is not priority.
I wish I had someone to do this for me.
I THINK I WILL LEAVE MY ROSE!! COLORED!! GLASSES !! ON!!..DANG TO MUCH WORK!! I WOULD NEVER DO IT RIGHT LOL!!..BUT GOOD JOB GUY!! LATERZZZ!!
I really want my oven glass to be clean.... I can't even see through it right now.... but I'm scared I won't be able to reassemble the door once I take it apart! Any tips for making sure I can reassemble it? You did it so easily, and it looks great! :)
I am with you! Using the yardstick method I mentioned at the beginning was going to take too much time and frankly I was not sure it would get everything - like you I really wanted it to be clean! Best advice is to take your time and take pictures of the inside as you are taking it apart to make sure you see where everything goes. Once inside, it was pretty easy to make sense of how everything goes back together. When you are taking the screws out, I placed them around the outside of the door near where I took them out. When you assemble it back together, make sure all of the holes line up. I found clorox wipes worked excellent to get the glass clean and then just follow up with glass cleaner and you will be in good shape! Good luck and let me know how it turns out!
Easiest tip for anybody taking anything apart and wanting it to go back together :
Use your phones camera, take pictures at every step.
Another trick is to use butchers paper (Xmas paper works too, just flip it to the blank side). Draw the item, showing where each screw goes. As you remove a part place it on the full size drawing. (Your drawing doesn’t have to be very artistic, just enough for YOU to recognize the part.). I’d even number th3 parts as you take them off. 1 for the first part 2 for the second. Don’t use 1 number for parts even if they are the same, number them in the order you removed them.
Good luck. (When my sons got into R/C cars, this is how we educated ourselves about them.)
Guarantee it wont be that easy I've tried crazy stuff like this, that was at least a dozen screws on 3 different panels shoot it would never go back right. Just my opinion. Also with stopping the video who knows how long this really took I bet at least 3 or 4 hours. I would be thrown the glass out the back door after hour 2. Lol
Great job!
And I see the tinfoil on the bottom! I will definitely do that! Thank you for the great tips 😊
WARNING: Do not place tinfoil on your oven floor...some oven manuals actually say it can damage the oven.
Read precautions first.
@@tonymusolino2369 Ok, thank you so much for the information 😊
Don't put foil on the bottom. It will heat damage the oven. Instead, you can cover the bottom rack with aluminum foil.
@@tonymusolino2369 I can't use this video for removing the oven door since my oven door has different style hinges. Once I saw that sheet of foil on the bottom of the oven, I was wondering how long I'd have to scroll down before someone commented on how that is NOT recommended.
Omw I have to wait for hubby before I make a mistake
I am glad to know how to clean this! it bugs me to no end...this is too hard..lol
i wonder if a steamer could work better where he used the ruler..would be very messy
He Seems To Have MISSED A Step . When Re-Assembling He Put In Some Sort Of Cloth Ring Around The Rim Of The Glass. Never Saw Him Take One Off & What Is It Made Of ???
Hey that's a brilliant idea, thanx! I've got a steamer so I'm going to try that
Nicely done.
Thank you, I appreciate you taking the time to comment!
To complicated, I would never put it back together, plus I can see myself breaking it. Not taking any chances. 😂
First off, I'm lousy at putting things back the way I take them apart. Second, I would break, chip, and/or crack all three panes of glass. Sorry, not in my skill level...but a great video nonetheless.
Today’s appliances are crap. Never used to have all these problems,s with our appliances.
It's due to the greed of manufacturers. They would have you buy a new one each year if they could. Just like phone manufacturers.
👍👍
Thank you for sharing 🙏👌💯
You bet! Hopefully the video helped!
Thanks for that info!!! I’m not sure I would get it back together ! Lol
But I would definitely give it a try. Wonder why they don’t seal them so this doesn’t happen
