Question about toaster oven
 
I have one that an 8 by 8 pan can fit in, so it is pretty small. How do you clean the inside of the oven. Easy Off says to keep away from heating elements. Mine is looking pretty greasy.

I'm sorry I wouldn't even bother cleaning a toaster oven, heck, I rarely clean our big oven. LOL

I would clean it and not throw it out. Google how to do clean it. I might try baking soda. on pinterest there are pins on how to do it.

Put a small bowl of warm ammonia in it and let it sit for awhile. Then wipe with a paper towel. Migh need todo it again if very dirty.

Same here, lol. On occasion I shake the crumbs out of the toaster oven, but that's about it.

Baking soda is pretty awesome when it comes to removing grease. I use it on my oven for a quick cleanup, the sink and countertops for a non toxic deodorizing clean up. I use it to clean my cast aluminum cook ware. There are many other uses as well, cosmetic and culinary. This is just a few. Also that nasty sticky greasy coating that happens on and around stove tops....yup...works like a champ.

I heard a hint many years ago for help in cleaning a regular oven. It could prove helpful here too. Take a little custard dish and put some ammonia in it. Let that sit in the toaster oven overnight with the door closed. It will take the fight out of the grease, and pretty much anything else.

I buy new small kitchen appliances when mine start to look like they need cleaning when I just cleaned it. The ones I use daily are cheap to replace. I've never tried to deep clean a toaster over. I had a counter rotisserie and I never could get it clean after the first chicken I cooked in it.

They are not hard to clean at all, I wipe mine out every few days and there is usually a tray underneath that can be removed. I know that ammonia is wonderful, you can actually put paper towels on the bottom and spray ammonia on it and leave it overnight. It will soften all yucky spots and then wash it off. Ammonia burns so wear gloves.
