    I think the previous owners of my house would give them a run for their money. Even apart from parts of the fridge and range being broken, I’d have seriously considered tossing them just because of how disgusting they were. I don’t like tossing things that still work though. So while I wasn’t keen on spending over a thousand to get them replaced, I’m probably much better off for it.

    I honestly don’t know how they could stand it being that dirty. Everything was caked. I even had to give the pantry a scrub down before I could paint it.

      Same here! Our whole kitchen had at least 2 sets of owners worth of grease and grime coating everything. The people before us only owned the house for a couple years, but I don’t think they cleaned the place even once. We spent the first day of homeownership scrubbing all the nooks and crannies of just the kitchen. The outsides and tops of the cabinets are still a bit sticky, but we’re hoping to replace them soon. One of the burners on the stove was absolutely encrusted with burned stuff, the bottom of the fridge drawer had tons of dust and crud, and the walls were covered in handprints, food splatters, and misc. grime. Bleh!
