Black Stove cleaning tips?

[Zucca4]

My husband and I purposely opted against any stainless appliances fearing they
would be terrible to clean, however the black stove/oven has not proved to be
much easier.

Any tips to getting the stove clean? I've tried everything and there are still
spots and patches...

Thanks,
lisa

Most appliances will provide an owner's manual which includes cleaning
instructions. Follow them carefully. Abrasive cleaners may scratch
finishes and/or remove dial markings. I use a damp cloth (with an
optional drop of dishwashing liquid for those few messy cooking
sessions.)

If the surfaces you're trying to clean are porcelain enamel, you can safely
use the cleaners recommended for glass-top stove surfaces. It will remove
almost anything.

The brand I currently have is Cerama Bryte, although I have used others.
All the cleaners I've tried have worked well.

Additionally, I have also had very good luck with Bar Keeper's Friend on a
very damp cloth It doesn't scratch at all.
