Cleaning Microwave Tip

I read about this a while ago but just tried it and it really wsorks!

Fill a coffe cup 1/2 way with white vinegar. Put in the micro for 1 minute 30 seconds. Then spray the inside oif the microwave with your normal cleaner. It will wipe everything right off. I was shocked at how easy it was...better than the magic eraser

Re: Cleaning Microwave Tip

Or better yet... Buy a food cover & use it everytime you use the microwave. I got my microwave installed over my stove in February, I never had to clean it. The inside of my microwave is spotless.

Re: Cleaning Microwave Tip

If you cant take the smell of vinegar, take 3/4 lemon juice and nuke it for 4-5 minutes. Then take a damp cloth and wipe down.

They say not to cover your food with plastic anymore they found it is not safe my FIL got this tip from his oncologist.

Oh wow.. I sure hope so!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I guess it depends on how often you use the microwave.
