They work very well indeed. I put them in the dishwasher periodically,
not after every meal. Even with the best of the dishwasher tablets,
Finish or Aldi Logix, the glass is never perfect, you end up with a
brown effect from the baked on fat etc. And the chromed racks
never end up anything like they were when new either.

Obvious one of the spray on oven cleaners should work, but
since they are just a massive glass bowl, it would be easier to
fill them with caustic or something with the racks underwater etc.

Has anyone tried that ?

For burnt on fat on glass oven doors I've found the Wilko scrubbing
wipes to be very effective. They are a lot cheaper than any of the
'branded' products and IMO somewhat more effective. For seriously burnt
on fat more than one application of elbow grease may be required but for
recently burnt on fat a single wipe is often all hat is required.

In their stores Wilco tend to hide their own brand cheaper items well
away from the more expensive branded items they also sell

I recently had to use a near whole pack successfully removing the grease
from an over hob extractor fan that possibly hadn't been properly
cleaned for 10+ years. Another one of those jobs where the request was
"can you spend a few minutes replacing the bulb"! What really happened
was a replaced bulb, a replaced paper/cloth filter, a replaced carbon
filter and the removal of a thick grease film from all internal surfaces.

A tip I recently received from someone cleaning a glass front from a log
burning fire. Clean the glass with a damp cloth first dipped into the
ashes in the grate from the previous fire.
