Cleaning your microwave doesn't have to be a chore. These expert-approved hacks make it quick and effortless, eliminating the need for hard scrubbing.
Mix baking soda with water to form a paste. Apply it to soiled areas and let it sit for 5 minutes. Wipe away grime easily with a damp sponge.
Fill a glass with water and add a spoonful of dishwashing liquid. Microwave for about 2 minutes—watch to prevent overflow. Seal the door for 3 more minutes, then wipe with a clean, dry cloth. Pro tip: Opt for organic dish soap in large packaging to save money and reduce waste.
Prefer no water bowl? Mist the interior with a spray bottle. Place a damp sponge with a drop of dishwashing liquid inside and heat for 3 minutes. Use the warm sponge to wipe surfaces clean.
Pour 1 liter of water into a microwave-safe bowl. Add half a lemon, sliced. Heat for 3-4 minutes until steaming. The vapor loosens grease—simply wipe it away.
Spray the interior with cleaning vinegar. Let it sit for 15 minutes to break down buildup, then wipe with a clean cloth. Invest in durable spray bottles like this—they're leak-proof and long-lasting.
