Cracked glass on oven door?

Question

Some cold water was spilled on the inside oven glass while it was hot causing it to crack in several places. There are no big broken pieces, just 4 or 5 long cracks in the glass. Can we still use the oven? Is it something that needs to be fixed immediately? Thanks

Answer 1

An average inner door glass will cost you from 30 to 50 dollars. On a scale of 1 to 10, the repair is probably a 4. It's nothing complicated, but some basic experience with simple repairs would help a lot. If you had a repair service do it, anything less than $150 for the total bill would be fair.

Any time you have broken glass you have a safety issue. Just because you don't have jagged edges now, doesn't mean you won't at the most inconvenient time.

Answer 2

I would have the glass replaced my mother had an older oven that the glass was cracked and the effeciency of the oven went down.

Answer 3

It should be ok unless its a microwave.
