The one that came with our house is self cleaning! I had no idea what that meant, but I didn't feel like scraping out the bottom so I gave it a try. It takes FOREVER. I can't remember exactly how long, but it is hours. It basically gets super hot and burns away everything. The oven also locks itself, so you can't open it while it's super hot. This was problematic, because I didn't know how long it was going to take when I started it, then I realized I need to use it for dinner. So I turned the self cleaner off, but it took a long time to cool down after and I was still locked out of using it until it reached whatever temperature it needs to reach to unlock. :-/
