Why replace a worn oven shelf

Oven shelves carry roasting dishes, trays and casserole pots at high temperature, often loaded heavily and slid in and out while hot. Over the years the wire can bend, welds can crack and the plating can wear through to rust, especially if the shelves are left soaking or cleaned with harsh oven cleaner. A bent shelf tips dishes, a broken weld lets wires drop, and rust can flake onto food. Having enough sound shelves also matters when you are cooking several dishes at once.

Fitting the oven shelf

Let the oven cool before handling shelves. Slide the new shelf into the side runners the same way up as the old one, with any raised back edge or stop at the rear, and push it in until it sits fully home. Pull it forward gently to check it stops before tipping, and try it in each shelf position you normally use.
