I also had varying success with oven cleaner - I guess it depends on the finish. Another method is to use a blow torch then a really good scrub to get rid of the char- it does darken the wood but is good on the gingery tones woods cos it mellows them out.

I saw in another post where the people took rugs to a car wash and used their scrub brush and sprayer to wash ther rugs.They showed how to rolls rugs to squeeze out the water.I thought this was such a neat idea

Those rugs could be taken to those heavy duty machines at a laundry mat. If you have a rug cleaner or want to rent one you could clean it like you would carpet in your home. I guess It depends on where the Restore is located. Mine does not have any high end merchandise and most of what they do have is overpriced.

Great job finding some really nice items thrifting. You work miracles! I do have to say your thrift stores are more reasonable than ours here in Oregon. The prices are outrageous here for used items. I found a 20" black pottery vase the other day (Goodwill) that had no price on it. The sales woman went to get a price and came back announcing 29.99. I just looked at her in shock and said I'll pass.

Be very careful about boxed appliances. I have purchased and taken back three broken kitchen small appliances. I even opened up the box this last time and looked at it and it looked great and when I got home it was completely destroyed. You have to really take things out of the boxes to get an idea of what is inside I was so mad because it was really cool. It was a mini Dash waffle stick maker, and it was perfect for my camper but when I took it out to go take it out there it was completely destroyed so it went back.
