Anyone had trouble with mold growing in this bowl/have ideas of how to prevent it? This is the only problem we have, but haven't had with other bowls.

Yes, I have. I have to clean it out every couple of days.The rate that the water fills the bowl is not enough to clean the mold and the water does not circulate.

We also had a problem with this product - slimy. Another issue we didn't realize before our purchase was the dish the lack of weight to keep the dish from turning, overturning. Another problem was the constant overflowing. Adjustments were made to the water meter, however it did not remedy the situation. We did return the product. We purchased another product that I would recommend. The link is below. This product has replaceable filters that are affordable.

I've had this problem but only in a small ammount. I dusted it with flour and worked the stickey dough off the bowl that way. On a bigger scale it could work too.

I leave mine outside all the time, wash the bowls and fill with fresh food & water. Have not had any problems.

I've had the same problem as other reviewers--food gunk gets stuck in the handle and above the lid's gasket. I really wish Cuisinart would offer a replacement bowl for this model that doesn't get food stuck in it. Seems like a no-brainer.

Here is a link to their website: http://www.slipxsolutions.com/materials. I have had them since August, and haven't noticed any mold or mildew buildup. Hope this helps you find what you need to know.

I use bleach (evil, I know) during an occasional cleaning cycle. If you are past your warranty, hook up the unit to the hot water supply instead of the cold water. I've been running mine like this for 3 years and no problems. If your water is super-duper hot (&gt;180F), you may experience warping of the bowl.

I have not had that problem with mine, look around the metal plate under aluminum bowl and see if anything got in there that's melting or burning.Have you tried calling customer service about this?

I've not had issues with mold in this pail or the larger size of this pail. I try to let it air out during washings in order to prevent mold. I also put an arm and hammer baking soda diaper pail disc in the bottom which seems to help, too.

I've been using mine for over a year, maybe two. Mine has mold on it. It varies so its not like the whole thing is molded. So far it hasn't affected the sturdiness. It doesn't really bother me but I was under the impression this would not happen.

I've had no issues with mold. Out patio is uncovered and the sun is brutal. However, not even have the product for a year, most covers have rotted and split.

We haven't had any issues with mold - and we only have one bunny so we had our supply around for quite a while! If you can keep it cool and dry (we keep ours in our chilly laundry room), it should be fine. Our bun definitely prefers this to anything store-bought!

I have had mine for almost a year and I haven't noticed any mold. It does need to be cleaned out every so often, but I just spray it down with disinfectant and rinse it off. Comes clean every time.

I have had them for a while now, it never got moldy. Sometimes food gets stuck to the rubber that's inside the lid, but you can take them out and wash them.

Anything can mold or mildew however I have not had an issue with mine. It's actually a nice piece to have.

I haven't had any trouble and i have been using glasslock products for years. I have never gotten mold on the lids. I run everything through the dishwasher between uses. Maybe they should practice safe food storage, you really shouldn't have anything stored long enough to grow mold....right??? Gross!! then you don't have to worry about it staining the container. Free advice >> Don't eat over their house ;)

We live in Utah where we have next to no mold problem so that is not an issue. However I was raised in the northeast where it is a big problem. I would suggest wiping it out every few weeks according to your humidity, which is the big factor. Sorry I can't help more. Have a good day.
