Can the center peg be removed, to allow for the placement of flat, heat-proof bowls on top?

You could probably break it off as it doesn't appear to be welded, but it is not removable to my knowledge.

Just looked at it and it can not be removed. It is 1 3/4" high,so it looks to me that if you put a cover on top,there should be plenty of room for it. That is of course,with the steamer opened. Hope that helps.

The center can be unscrewed. It is held by a small nut on the back side. Be careful not to lose the nut.

No if you remove the bowls the food is not exposed because the bowls rest on what could be considered a lid for the system. It is not difficult to remove the top to fill, but I would advise you remove the top when you have little to no food/water in the bowls.

Yes, the little bar has two wooden pegs that fit into two holes in the tabletop. On mine, they were not a snug fit so removal is easy.

yes they can. the screw that comes with the unit is made to go through the center piece as well. it may be to long to fit without the center piece. That would be just a matter of purchasing a small screw if it didn't work.

We use the tray for storage, but not daily access. It storage was used daily, it would be a real challenge with removing and replacing the bowls

I see no reason you cannot do that. as long as it lays flat it does not matter how its installed.

I haven't tried - the main bowl seems pretty sturdy, but the spinning bowl and top look vulnerable to heat, and my DW does a heated dry I cannot override.I wouldn't let that dissuade you - doesn't get very dirty, and works great every time.

I believe you can by removing the middle level. The levels snap together so it shouldn't be a problem removing the middle.

No; the top dish-shaped pieces are round. The largest diameter leg they would accept are just shy of 3" diameter, or a rectangle that would fit within a 3" dia space.

No, I wouldn't try that. It's never even entered my mind. It's meant to be set on the porcelain toilet rim - after you've lifted up the existing seat. Depending upon the shape of their toilet bowls, some folks apparently have to use the included sticky pads. I've not encountered that. That's why I love this item so well. For me, it fits perfectly the way it comes out of the box.

the bowl is fully removable. you could use the scale without the bowl if you want to.

Top is not removable and is a main component of how the cage goes together. Would not suggest removing it on a regular basis. Cage has two small access doors and two openings for food/water bowls

Because the middle insert is removable, I have found it easy to do. After you have the bottome removed and it placed on the plate you want, just remove the insert first and it will come out.

I would not think it was possible. No flat surfaces, definitely bowl shaped

You can probably do the same thing with a square bowl. This is just convenient. You don't have to measure since the water line is marked. The block of ramen fits perfectly since the bowl is flat with straight sides. Its a gimmick, but it's handy and we do use ours.

I don't think you can, while the knob is recessed I think the knob protrudes enough that anything on top would slide off. And the lid is slightly domed as well. I think the other lid you see is for the bacon keeper.

As far as I can determine, no, there is not. The top edge, which is rolled back, makes it impossible to fit on any of the available shields. Very disappointing. Apparently that type of bowl is exclusive to Costco.
