I wiped mine down with lots of olive oil , let it warm up and added batter . the first pair you make usually soak up any excess oil and I pitch them After than its good to go .I wipe it down before each project. Works great ....someone is getting an awesome gift !!!

Not a problem just make sure iron is very hot, then spray it with Crisco, or Spam oil.start with a piece of bread to check , then spray again before start to bake cookies.

No problem if u make sure iron is hot. I spray it with Pam and then cook a slice of bread prior to putting in batter.

I'm not sure. The machines I've bought from amazon have never had an issue so I've never needed to inquire.

So Sorry I have not read the manual that well, so just cannot say one way or the other. I would think for the price of the machine why not risk it?

When I had mine this is not something that occurred, I had other challenges that resulted in returning the machine. I've heard they are wonderful machines, I hope you are able to get this corrected.

You don't have to if you're not making it for anyone other than yourself. If this is for another person and you're selling it, I would highly suggest that you clean/refine it.

No it won't work, it has a heat sensor so if it's already warm the machine won't work

Hello. You can return the machine if you want Esther if it's still under the 30 day period. Regards

I tried to submit for a machine I bought and was told the number on my machine had already been used and did not qualify. There is a reason this machine is cheaper. Amazon make no statement that these machines qualify. They do not qualify.

Had no problem with that but my dough wasn't right and it stuck to maker. Good luck

I did have this problem until I disconnected the machine, wheeled it out to the curb and put a "free please take it" sign on the thing. That was more than two years ago and I haven't missed it for a single moment.

Tammy,I figured out after that happened to me was to get the motor running and pour the mixture in using the slot in the top. I haven't had any more trouble with it sticking. It does seem to freeze up quicker than the time it says in the booklet. I scrap it out with a rubber spatula and put it in a container to finish in the freezer. I got a good hint from another web site to put a little acholol ( rum or tequila)in it to keep it from freezing rock hard. Hope this helps

No...it's a terrible product and so disappointed. I actually trash it! I would not give the machine to anyone as I was afraid a child may get burned with it. The machine gets very hot!!

Mary - don't force it. The resevoir sort of fits in and clicks into place just with a very gentle push. What I had problems with is the topper on the resevoir, as after I took it off to empty the resevoir, I couldn't get it back in place because it was crooked and unless it lines up perfectly horizontally, the resevoir won't click back into the machine. With the resevoir out of the machine and the topper/tube off, you empty it. Then the hard part is lining up the tube/topper so the little hooks on the sides fit under the slits. When it fits on perfectly horizontal, then you can easily get the resevoir back into the machine. Mary - don't force it.

I've never tried to do that. I don't think it will hurt the machine if you wanted to find out how it does.

I never received my espresso machine. but u should only have to run it once or twice . ur unit should be heated anf a pump should be running when ur brewing . if not it should be a warranty claim. contact ur seller.

I suggest you go see the manufacturer's site to see videos of how it works and also on Youtube by searching "ActiFry". I had a look on how puri is made and I think it will not work in this machine because this machine stirs constantly. It could also get stuck as the dough is very soft material.
