I sometimes worry about using Windex on some things, especially if they have painting on them, because I once used it on a plate that I should not have used it on....it destroyed the paint job. But if you keep that in mind, I bet it works on most things. I do have a fake crystal plastic large bowl that I keep on top of the refrigerator as a catch-all, and it gets really gross with grease and grime. I always use Windex to clean it and it works without much elbow grease.
