Answer here...You are keeping the lid closed ALL the time and there is no air circulation. I save the packages of gel silica from shoe boxes and vitamin bottles etc and toss them in -- it works fine, and I don't have a problem!

I've found that pulling it taut and cutting it 1 layer at a time helps but there are still some stragglers. I usually just cut it folded as is and rinse the ends so they don't end up in whatever I'm straining. :)

Its most likely a blend. It curled appropriately, I've owned synthetic blends, it didn't act like those. Be aware of the thinness most. It also has lots of gray stands. My original suggestion was that it was too thin. It read as real hair to me. Just for infants or something. I'd suggest getting something with more weight. (2-3 packs)

If it's gritty, you're heating it at too high a temp or too fast when you're melting it.Shea needs to be melted slow and low, best in a double boiler .

Check to make sure it's not screwed down too tightly. A little bit of lubricant in the part that spins might help also. The handle really does move it quite nicely. You may want to check to make sure nothing like packing material or debris is stuck in it, effectively jamming it tight.

No problem with them curling up! I haven't had them quite so long but so far, so good. I always make sure I step completely on the mat- so not to "kick" the edges. I can't figure out WHY they are curling. I absolutely LOVE mine.

My guess is that the material is not sticking to the platform. Try preheating it.

Same here. We just pulled it all the way out and the carefully let it roll back in clean watching the line so it didn't "stack up"and was evenly rolled. Hope that helps.

I do not understand the bend ? Are you meaning that each PC of hair you roll has a bend or crease at wher the top of clip is? Because I have fine hair but mine may not be as thin, but if your hair is wrapped tight I do not see how you could be getting a bend in it!??? I wish I could see a photo of how your rolling hair then maybe I could help you! Mine does not come off like that.

Me too. I threw mine in the garage (same problem with curling edges). I bought a far superior product made by Dacasso.

I grab both ends and twist in opposite directions. That way when it folds together it doesn't unfold or bulk up because it is fighting against its self try to rotate in opposite directions. Either way grabbing and twisting the wire in the middle should work for you.

I would agree with the others. I did a quick google search and it does sound as though it might have something to do with the layers possibly not fusing together properly. Definitely not normal! I thoroughly enjoy mine, so you may want to give some thought to giving them a second chance and have them replace it. Good luck with whatever you decide! :)

I would guess that it is filled with some type of styrofoam beads. I have washed mine successfully. I use Woolite and cold water to be on the safe side and do a vinegar rinse to remove all traces of the detergent and then rinse in clear water again. For the vinegar rinse I add about two or three tablespoons of plain white vinegar to about two to three quarts of cold water. I just guess. Hang and let air dry for 24 hours. I always order a few spares so I have a clean one while the other one dries.

look it up on youtube. The suction inside makes it sound like gagging noises.

maybe...it is high velocity directional warm air. I would vacuum it first rather than stir it up and re-distribute. Just my opinion.

Hi Bruce My best guess is gelatin after watching several of them melt in my top loader. I have only had one (not Gain of any kind) go sorta "squirrel-ly" and not melt properly. It made a mess but after a second run (without anything else but water) run everything came off the clothing & it was just fine. I love my flings / pods, I guess because one is a load & I am not wasting extra like I was guilty of when using liquid or powder detergent. I like the flings / pods line so much, I admit there are about six bottles of liquid laundry detergent that are sitting abandoned in my laundry room because pods / flings have taken over & are now the laundry room rulers!!!!
