My winder came with a rusty handle. Have others had this problem?

My handle also broke. I found a replacement broom handle at home depot that fit the threads in the broom head. it seems they're pretty standard. I brought the broom head to make sure the handle fit!

I actually had to use the hardware from my old one to get this product to work...luckily I had the spring section and screws...but the silver price is supposed to be broken down to the right size for your handle with plyers...if that doesn't help I'm sorry. I would return it for a refund and order elsewhere

RVG Remove the handle and take it to a Home Depot or equivalent and ask for replacement. Delta guarantee their units for life. I didn't know this and bought a part that did not fit. I took it in, they gave me a new replacement part. Try this. Al

No haven't had mine quite that long. BUT if you haven't taken it apart and cleaned it i would. Sometimes the gas bulbs/whip cream can leave residue and buildup. Might be causing the handle to stick open. If you can't fix it just learn to love lots of whipped cream :P

Linda: Sorry to hear you're having difficulty. Here are a few suggestions: 1st - Make sure the yarn is able to flow evenly so once you start to crank the winder, you don't have to stop. 2nd. Make sure the longest metal arm is in tightened down and is in a straight line to the hank of spinning yarn. 3rd. When you begin to crank, continue in the same clockwise direction, never stopping. 4th, the yarn should come off the hank at the same level as the winder, not below it and must flow smoothly. I found if I used my dominant hand to crank and my non-dominant hand to help guide the yarn from the "spinning hank", it worked better than just cranking the winder. My first attempt I had trouble with the crank, getting confused as to which direction I was spinning. Made a mess. I assume you are using something for the hank of yarn to spin on while you crank. Won't work without that. Hope this helped you. If you don't have an "umbrella" for the yarn, here's a suggestion:http://www.amazon.com/Stanwood-Needlecraft-Wooden-Umbrella-Winder/dp/B000IG1I8O/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1388088237&sr=8-2&keywords=yarn+winder

Sure. Contack the Pepper Mill folks. I just received a replacement handle recently.

No I have not. Make sure you turn and TIGHTEN the handle in place after you've adjusted it to the length you want it at. I'm sure that's what's wrong.

Can I just take a number and get in line with the others with the broken handle problem? First time I've used the mower, and 3 hrs later....out of commission.

I haven't had that problem. I'm left handed but not sure if I use it like a left-hander or right-hander. Perhaps you have the handle in the wrong position.

You should replace the whole unit. You will be looking for a while just for the handle.

I have never had that problem. My Shark is 2 years old and going strong. You could email the company and ask if they have a replacement handle.

If you really just bought it last summer then contact KitchenAid----They stand behind their products. Also---The handle is just a push-on so they may just send you a new handle.

No! I would contact the manufacturer at once. I am having an issue with a plastic-like coating wearing off from the paddles after about a year of using the machine but no metal shavings!!

I had the same problem and ended up switching out the handle with an older handle off of something else I was going to throw away. If I had not had another handle I would have used something to provide more friction or returned it.

Did you try to contact the company? They are very easy to work with and I am sure they would either send a replacement handle or replace the product.

How are you getting BD to replace the handle for free? This is our third summer with it and the handle just broke yesterday.
