How do I clean my stove? I can lift up the top, but what can I use to clean it with it where food spills when cooking?

I clean my stove top with a dishrag and dishwater when I do my dishes. If you clean it after every use, it never gets bad. You don't say if it is electric or gas. Some products can not be used on a gas stove, especially if it is one with open pilot lights.
Can I clean the burners on my gas stove to improve gas flow? One is uneven and the other doesn't light at all.

Sounds like these are clogged up. Try using a metal brush and lightly prick the holes after you remove the burner from the stove. Blow loose debris/dust out and see if that helps.
How do I clean my Jenn Air stove? My burners are a solid piece. You pull out the whole piece with 2 burners in it.
The top is gas and the bottom is electric. The gas top is a mess. I have tried Dawn dish soap, scratch pads, and vinegar. And I can't afford the so called Jenn Air cleaner. It is too much $$$$.

My stove's gas burners don't fully light up. I've cleaned and taken off all the parts. All that's left is the little burner. I guess it it clogged up.
