Recently, one hinge became very loose. I examined this but saw nothing that would caused that. Did anyone have similar issues and knows how to fix it?

mine has been fine so far and its taken a bit of a beating being hauled around

There seems to be a stress point between the hinge and the audio jack. I've experienced severe cracking in this area.

I think it's defective if you mean you have lateral motion when opening the press away from yourself. The halves on mine don't allow for that, sorry but yeah I imagine the hinge is not fit properly.

I've had to replace the hinges a few times. Each time I just called munchkin's customer service department and the shipped me out new ones free of charge.

I had this same issue and it was an issue with the door. You can have amazon send a replacement.

I didn't have to trim mine--just replaced where the old hinge was. It was easier to replace one hinge at a time, leaving the other two to support the door up, rather than taking the door off to replace. The hinges did seem a little 'thicker' than my original ones, because now that they are changed, it seems like the doors want to swing open if they are not latched shut. (Also, the pins don't want to come out of the hinges, so if I ever do need to take the doors off, it will be interesting.) Just another option--I bought a couple of packs of these to change out the hinges on my main level, but I ended up spray-painting my remaining hinges (I have doors all over the place!) with ORB spray paint, and I actually like those better--the original hinges do fit into the door better, and I don't have the problem with the doors mysteriously opening.

I had the same problem, less than 2 yrs hinge part broke and wouldn't lock, I bought 2 2" pipe clamps, screw type, and secured it in the up position by securing the clamps around the hinge. only problem is is have to remove the clamps to lower it if it gets windy. I bought a second one to replace it, it was shipped defective, wouldn't go up, something wrong with the crank. I returned it and got full credit from amazon. Can't say anything good about the quality of the product...

I've never had a problem with mine. I liked it so much that I bought another one. Make sure you have it together tight.

Mine is not loose now, but I think it was when it came in. There are various screws, find the ones that attach the parts that are loose, and tighten them. Hope that helps,

Chance are there is a little pressure on door due to misalignment or loose hinges. Push in on door while positioning magnet, I am sure this will work. Once door open adjust hinges fully to tighten closing of door.

I did not have a problem with the doors. On the hinges there are "set" screws. On one hinge, you adjust the screw for vertical fit; on the other hinge you adjust for horizontal fit. Hope this helps

My only answer would be to try lubricating the hinge pin so it turns more freely.

Mine got loose after about a month. I noticed it and added some electtical tape. Now its good

No I have not experienced that. The seat that comes with the toilet is a good one, at least on the elongated shaped bowl. We recently replaced it (2+ years) but after removing it I found I could fix the reason for it coming off the hinge. There's a plastic sleeve that slipped out from it's plastic holding cage, pushed it back in. Looks like the plastic cage eventually gets a bit misshaped so it'll probably come loose again, but hasn't yet.

I had the same problem and fixed it by bending the door so that it was tight. Did it by hand and now the door is held firm but not to tight. This corrected the issue. BTW, we love the game.

For everyone here who can't get it to fit, it may be defective and you should email the seller. If that's not an option, I personally pried the charger part apart and snapped off two little hinges that were getting in the way of the side buttons. Snapped it back together and works perfectly now.

We actually had a piece break on one of the door hinges. I sent an email to the manufacturer and while it took them an age to get back to me (I believe I sent a second email) they sent us a replacement set and apologized for the delay. I suggest you contact them.
