Baking soda. It does not scratch! Found out how wonderful it works on stovetops too, after I scratched my new one with other cleaners. Works great for cast iron pans.

I use Magic Erasers on my pans for upkeep. I don't know how they would work for really soiled pans.

I use Dawn Power Dissolver on my gas stove grates, I spray them real ggod let set a few hours and then stack in sink and soak them in the hottest water I have, no scrubbing and I rinse them and dry them.

DON'T USE OVEN CLEANER IF YOU HAVE ANY KIND OF PET BIRD, IT WILL KILL THEM. eVEN IF THEY ARE IN ANOTHER ROOM.

I like that Dawn Power dissolve stuff...but I think I let my thingies under my burners get too dirty...it wouldn't clean them. I've decided the best way for me to clean those is to buy new ones every year....DH doesn't agree...but..who cares??? :wink:

I have stainless steel with copper bottoms that are about 35 years old and have used Bar Keepers Friend on them since day one. They don't brand new, but they look very good for thier age. I wouldn't use anything else, cleans well without scraching.

I might have to get new ones since it's pretty burned!

Thanks for all the suggestion, I need to get my DH to not burn it when he's cooking. He doesn't cook too often but when he does, it's a mess everywhere. I think cleaning up is worst than cooking it myself.

I use dawn soap.

Dawn dish soap, Bon-Ami cleanser(similar to Bar Keepers Friend), wah pans with the soap and scrubbie,make a paste out of the Bon-Ami, spread on the bottom of pans, let dry, take a non scratching scrubbie(we use the blue scrubbies) and scrub till clean.
