There is something black floating around at the bottom of it. I'm scared to open and investigate, is this normal?

Mine looked more like a flower to me. Actually, I found the bottle unacceptable, as if the oil hardended, it was time consuming to warm it up to a more liquid state. Perhaps yours has a chunck of coconut shell???

Hi there! Unfortunately, this does not seem like a normal quality for this product. Our best suggestion would be to contact the seller from which you purchased this item for further assistance.

The glass is not open on the bottom. I have had no problems with bugs getting in.

Mine wasn't seated good and was letting a small amount of water leak into the bowl. Once it's gets low on the float you hear the tank filling back up. That's the only way I would think of it alarming you.

Honestly, I really have no idea what that little part is for but I just let it float on top and have no problems. I don't have the packaging anymore either to see if there was any explanation. I was wondering the same thing myself. My daughter has one as well and she doesn't know either. :-) Gotta love that. It just makes me smile. Somethings are just unexplainable. Hum??? Ha! Good question.

Well, I don't -- I just check the valve to see if I can see daylight through the hole. If you don't see food particles, you're probably OK. More important, in my opinion, is not letting the round rubber seal in the lid go too long before you take it out, wash it, and re-oil it with vegetable oil. You don't want that to get brittle.

Its black and blends nicley into the bottom of the screen. I could only tell it was there when i run my fingers across it.

It is real strange. It is tall but narrow. They some how suck all the air out and make it skinny. But then when open it expands. I would move it up stairs first then open it. You should be fine. But it is a heavy buger.

I had the same problem. It won't hurt anything and will gradually go away. Its a great bread box.

No, it appears something might be loose inside or not functioning. Return to manufacturer for repair for your safety.

Snap the inner cover into the lid with the black thing pointed up. It will only be visible thru the holes.

I do not have that in mine! It could be defective,but if it holds water and there is no leak,and the place is not thin then I would not worry about it.IT hope this helps!!

I have mine floating on the surface, but there is a foam ring inside that you can remove and it will sit on the bottom. Since it is black it is not very noticable on the surface if you have it floating.

Black glass when looking from the top, but looking from the bottom it looks like a coating of some type...you can not see through it

It appears you can see this in the stock photo here. Looks like the black thing on the left side of the sink.

It must be something else, because there is no black stuff. I have used it twice and both times used the rack to hold the turkey so clean-up was pretty easy.

Did not encounter anything at all like that. I gave it to my wife as a gift, and she said that it was perfect. Will the company replace it for you since it sounds like there was problem in the manufacturing?
