Abstract
A scrubbing implement for an oven including a handle having telescoping portions which are locked together in adjusted relation to conform to the overall depth of the oven, means for rotatably mounting the handle on an elongated base and clamping the handle at a relative angle to the base so the implement can be inserted in the oven at an angle precluding undue bending of the user, and a sponge removably mounted on the base for cleaning the oven. The use of the implement also removes the necessity of the user coming into contact with the interior of the oven while cleaning the oven, avoiding the accumulation of dirt on the clothes and hands.
