I placed the angry looking woman inside my microwave. She stood about five inches tall.

I watched her twirl around on the rotating disc, her irate expression making me smile every time she completed a turn. My microwave was covered in splattered food and needed a good cleaning. After a few minutes, steam started to pour out of the holes in her head and filled the rectangular box that encased her. The gunk stuck in the crevices was starting to loosen up.

It's one of the weirdest purchases I've ever made.

The Angry Mama Microwave Cleaner uses water and vinegar to soften chunks of food sticking to the inside walls of your microwave. Fill the furious woman with water and vinegar, set your microwave timer to seven minutes, and watch steam rise from her head. It's a chemical free alternative, a safer option for families with young children. You can even add dash of lemon juice to the mixture and freshen up your microwave with a pleasant fragrance.

I was surprised by how well the product worked. The food was soft enough to wipe off in a couple of strokes, but it's not a miracle cleaner. You're definitely going to have to put your back into it and scrub off old, stubborn food. Angry Mama's available for $10.37 on Amazon and that's quite a steal, especially if it's a fun product that looks like a cross woman.
