I only have a small fridge which we keep under the counter so it doesn't get too dusty. I used a cloth to dust the coils and hot water mixed with lemon juice for the rest of the exterior. There was some mess on the floor when I pulled it out so I swept that up.

The cleaners I used:
- sprayed the front, sides, and top with vinegar solution, wiped clean with paper towels, wiped again with microfiber cloth, then went over with Norwex stainless steel cloth
- vacuumed the condenser coils (used 2 attachments), then used an old straw brush to clean out better

I used a vinegar and water mixture for the cleaner.

Anything worth doing well is worth doing poorly first. Just look at this tiny ad:
