My spinner doesn't touch the bottom of pan, anyone else with this problem and how can I fix it?

It sounds as if it does... It makes wonderful popcorn so I assume all is well with mine....

I don't think it should touch. MY PROBLEM is for some reason I can't keep the top tight when whirring. I love this spinner but it is difficult to secure the top. The spinning needs to be kept free to toss the kernels.

I do not know of a 'fix' but do not have a problem with it not touching the bottom. Once the corn starts to pop, the spinner will keep it moving. I have not had any problems with sticking or burning, even while making kettle corn ( which requires sugar while popping.) I cannot say the same for my aluminum Whirly Pop (which is a good popper.) I switched to the Cook N Home to get away from aluminum and have not regretted it one bit. If you use high heat (not medium as to the instructions) and continually spin at a quick pace, you should not have any issues. Hope this explanation is helpful.

Try leveling the swash plate. Go on to YouTube for instructions and video. If that does not work then you may have a faulty Gyroscope.

yes I have the same problem. What I did was that i held the center tube while i tightened the head so it got really tight, and then it could pan without getting loose. However I think I am doing something incorrectly because I can't control the pan(how smooth it is). Another solution I figured only works when the center tube is in its lowest position and what I do is that I loosen the center tube(the thing that makes it stay in place vertically) so I can kinds control the pan but limited to the head staying on the lowest postion.

Have you tried loosening or tightening the grind adjustment in the middle of the top piece? You must twist in a "clockwise" direction. Mine works great, and I have used it for 9 months. If it doesn't grind after making the adjustments, then it could be broken.

I also received mine and I had the same problem, unable to remove the pan. I need to wash it before I start use it.

This company has been entirely irresponsible about this product. I spent $$ to replace two motors and currently not working at all. They promised to get back to me when a better motor was available but never did, tired of calling, am not using it now. Don't know about the spinner, maybe try putting it in better and wait , sometimes doesn't work right away. good luck

The bottom appears to be coated with some kind of non-stick material that gradually flakes off in the washing. The spinner disk has a plastic base and handle, and the lid is plastic. The solution may be a trip to Italy?!

yes, it happened to me. The magnetic part stopped touching the bottom I user a very small washer to bridge the gap. but any metal will do the job.

My wife had same problem when she loaded each side and then presssing the two sides together. She solved it by not loading the two halves and then pressing it together. It came out perfectly when she assembled the two halves and then pressed the butter in from the slot on the bottom!

There should be a knob on the handle part that you can adjust the density to the suitable degree. If that doesn't work, you may have one that's not working. Mine works fine.

You just have to be gentle with it. I think I had mine get stuck a bit. Make sure it's closing the right way. Might be your best bet is to squeeze both ends of one side where it rotates. Just be careful not to break it. :)

That happens when the lid gets misplaced... try rotating the lid... works for me..

This may be late to answer this, but I just had this problem and figured it out. Push the two locking size selection buttons in on the bottom bar and rotate it so the hook is easier to attach to then rotate the bar back until the buttons click into place now that the roller is attached.

That person may have a defective one. Mine works just great and the pin definitely rolls independently of the handles. I highly recommend it!

Turn the divider upside down from current. The little tab or foot on the divider should be on the bottom. This should fix it! I had the same issue!!!
