Do they not have self cleaning ovens in Australia? My oven is self-cleaning... I like it because after it's cool, you just wipe the charred stuff up with a paper towel and that's it. You don't have to scrub at all. But the annoying part is that the cleaning process heats your oven to like 500 degrees F, which stinks and makes your kitchen really hot and stinky. I don't run the self-cleaning cycle in the summer because of how hot it gets. I even have to move the butter dish from cupboard beside the stove when I run the self-cleaning cycle, because it melts the butter. It's a good thing to do in the winter though because you don't have to heat your house all day.
