You need a cheap and easy way to clean your overused greasy microwave oven? Then the answer to all your prayers is in a simple lemon. The days of struggle with removing grease and splatter are coming to an end. Grab a lemon and you’ll solve this issue fast.
First, mix a half squeezed lemon juice with a dish of water, approximately 300ml. Mix it well.
Then, place the solution in the oven, and turn to the maximum setting and heat for 5-10 minutes. By doing so, the steam will melt some of the grease on the walls and roof of the microwave.
Finally, wipe the freshly lemon-scented oven with a soft dishcloth. Your job is done and your microwave is clean.
Old Microwave on the left and New on the right 🙁
cooool
yes, as far as I can see. it ain’t the same micro…
Mira esto
Mira esto, que tal esta idea….
But it works. Leaving a fresh clean lemon smell.
You can see that they aren’t the same! The one on left has vent holes toward the back on wall. The one on right, doesn’t have any. Ha Ha, what a load.
it actually works though. I’ve been doing this since before the internet existed. I just throw half of a lemon in a big measuring cup of water and microwave for 10 minutes.
It also works with plain water, though the lemon smells nicer. It’s just steam cleaning. duh.
It s not the same
Vinegar also does the trick
Yea, but vinegar smells terrible!
Can you do this to a convection oven?
What a fresh idea! I love green cleaning! I use mixture of vinegar and water to clean the windows and it works amazingly well! St Johns Wood Carpet Cleaners Ltd.
Just tried this and I’m fairly certain it looks better than when I bought it.
