Burnt smell in motorhome
My loving wife burned some brownies in our convection microwave and smoked up the whole MH. What can I do to get rid of the horrible smell? Tried airing out the MH,spraying Fabreeze, putting out cups of vinegar--------no workie. It's been 3 days,what next?

Not sure, possibly an Ozone Generator?

Ozium. Used this in auto industry for years. Just be careful if you spray it heavy can make your eyes water. We would spray inside vehicle with A/C on maximum and let it circulate. Then let it sit closed for a couple of hours then air out. I carry a small can in my truck. Can find in most parts stores, Walmart, etc.

I carry a small ozone generator on my MH. We use it all the time and never notice lingering smells.

If the odor is into fabric and carpet, Odo-Ban works great. It used to be used by crime-scene cleanup crews, don't know about today.
They sell several different versions now, there was only one back when I first bought it in gallon jugs.

First thing, check if there's a filter in the fan of the microwave. If it's full of accumulated grease etc. it will have absorbed a lot of odour and will continue to give it back off for some time.
Even if there's no filter, giving it a good cleaning inside & out will certainly help.

3 Ways to Remove the Smell of Burnt Food from Your Home - wikiHow
Open all the doors and windows.
Good time to change all the filters.
Oil down the Furniture.
Wipe down the walls.
Condition the Leather.
Wash/Clean the fabrics.
Your basic spring cleaning.
When you finish you will be so tired and your nose so confused that you will sleep like a Baby not smelling a thing.

We use one too. Bought it at a truck stop, 12V for use in cab/sleeper, but I use the 120VAC adapter.
