There are always some things in the house that are skipped over during the weekly cleaning and then still get missed when spring cleaning comes around. For appliances that get used almost everyday, the toaster and microwave sometimes go without a clean for longer than any other kitchen appliance.
Excessive crumbs, chunks of bread or a build up of dirt and grime can potentially become a health hazard not to mention a fire hazard if left for too long in your toaster. Therefore it’s important to give your everyday kitchen appliances a clean in order to keep you and your family safe.
These everyday appliances may come across as difficult to clean, or require harsh chemicals to remove grime, but there’s a few tricks you can use to make the whole process quick, easy and family friendly.
In this episode Elke Keeley shows us her chemical-free cleaning hacks to give your toaster and microwave an all natural shine in a matter of minutes. Using everyday household items you can effortlessly make your toaster and microwave look as good as new.
