Yes, if you live in a warmer climate it can't stay out on your table very long, like maybe during the day, at night it has to go in the refrigerator, in France maybe the climate is such it is not a problem, it's now just a pretty crock on the table, has to go back in the refrigerator at night. Advertising was not really truthful.

You may have to keep it in the frig, which defeats the purpose. This is what I have to do since the butter falls into the water every time. It's worthless.

Keep the water level correct, keep fresh water in it and you should have no problems.

Mine is just fine...I live in California and the weather is warm then it's cold...In the instructions, it says to change the water every 3 days...so i clean the container and add fresh water every 3-4 days and that keeps the mold from growing...hope this idea works for you...

we did this past time, but hadn't had the issues before. We try to change out the water weekly so don't know what may have caused it.

Have you tried cleaning it with vinegar? Mine stopped working and I cleaned the inside with vinegar and it started working again.

I have not seen mold on mine as of yet, I will be keeping an eye on them. I spent a lot of money for all the pieces I bought. We keep our furniture in the garage during the winter weather. With the covers on!

I had the same problem with a raw bar, but a different brand. Turns out it was mold starting to form. When I called customer service, they advised me to store the bars in the fridge in the future. Again, different brand, but hope I could help!

I have 4 of these and only one has that problem. I have cleaned it and that helped for a short while and then right back to the same problem. Sorry I can not help you any more.Sandi

seems to be a problem with some of these units. mine will do that every once an awhile right now it is not doing that . I think it has something to do with moisture in the unit and temperature

I haven't noticed that. I have had mine for over a year. You might try running vinegar through it then lots of water.

I know that happens with me when I don't take it apart and clean it. I have gotten in the habit of cleaning it every month to month and a half when I change the filter. I take the front off, clean the inside, and clean the area around it. I hope this helps!

I haven't had a problem but I live in Arizona and fungus and mold are not prevalent here. Sorry, I have no suggestions.

Ive never had that problem. Im sorry. Maybe it is something to do with your environment? Or maybe yours isnt sealing correctly

I have had mine for 10 months now with continuous use and have some discoloration and occasionally some slime from the water but nothing that I would call mold.

I have never seen mold. As previous people have said there really isn't an inside that water can get in to. The ducky also pops off (its how to change the batteries) so you can clean it if you had to. Also, you need to dry it off after using (otherwise it won't turn off and the batteries will die eventually), so mold shouldn't grow anywhere.

I have had the same issue with mold. I try getting rid of it best I can, but usually just end up dealing with it and figure it probably won't kill me.

never had that problem. their customer service is good, though, so I'd give them a call. i have cleaned the inside with a bottle brush - it works well.

I don't have that problem. But I remember reading about it in reddit . com and an easy fix. Forgot what it was. Did you remember to remove the thin plastic protection stickers? On the inside? Also, wipe it clean and see if that helps.

I have the exact same problems with mine that Grace has with her's! We make sure it is empty and drained after each use but it has gotten disgusting with the mold (actually I believe it is a bacterial growth). Despite this major problem I truly love this machine and I used mine several times a day!

Hi. I wish i knew, mine is all black under the skin. It looks all moldy, but I don't think it is. It is only a year old.
