    Hi Sherry,

    It depends on whether you want to use chemicals or a natural method. Many people use Easy Off and they do have a "no fume" option that isn't supposed to stink as much. If you want to go natural, you can use baking soda. I recently did this and it worked pretty well. We did have some bad spots that took more than one application and I did need to rinse it well, but I was okay with that. I mixed baking soda and water to make a runny paste that I could spread all over the inside of my oven. Don't skimp with this. Mix more if you need it. I closed the oven door and let that sit overnight. The next day, I sprayed it with equal parts of vinegar & water with a few drops of Dawn. That's my go-to cleaning product these days. I let it bubble and sit for a while then started cleaning it off. I was pretty amazed at the great job it did in my oven. After it dried I did notice that there was still some baking soda that I missed but it was easy to go back with clean water to fix that. Wishing you the best.

    You can place a pan of ammonia in oven overnight. Remove next day and wipe clean

    I love to use my steam cleaner for the oven. It doesn't use harsh chemicals and it does a great job of making it shine! My favorite one is by Homeright https://amzn.to/2uBAZAX
