How difficult is this to clean? Are there many parts that need to be taken apart and scrubbed then put back together?

Moderately difficult. There is one short piece of tubing that I find hard to connect as well as disconnect, but less arthritic fingers may find it easier. There are fewer pieces than in another fountain I owned, and the cleaning itself is easier because of the shape of the bowl and the filter. One plus is that you don't have to buy replacement filters, but I've only used this a couple of months so don't know how well the filter and other parts hold up. Hope this helps.

I have not taken it apart but it has 6 tiny screws that need to be removed before the front can be taken off and it oiled if that helps any

We disassemble it about once a month and hand-wash the parts. It's very easy to take apart and rebuild.

It's not too difficult. I just used a spatula. It's a little difficult to clean though.

Yes, everything comes apart and it's all plastic so it's easily washed. You just wipe off the main unit with the motor which can't be immersed.

It's fairly easy. All running parts except the motor disassemble for easy cleaning with soap, hot water and the included brush that allows the user to reach hard to clean areas.

It completely comes apart for cleaning and easy to reassemble. We've been happy with it. It uses a fairly small amount of oil so you don't waste a lot either.

I take it apart and clean it quite often. I also run it in the dish washer as it is also dish washer safe. By taking it apart the top breaks down into a few pieces and i remove the rubber bands inside and clean them before putting it back together. Pretty easy, hope this helps!

not very easy to clean, but with some hot water anf a little soap....you should be able to scrub off food. i don't really recommend this chair....but not because of the straps. if you have a nice hard wood floor, the wheels on this chair will scratch it very bad. my floors are ruined.

Yepper! The whole fan comes apart and reassembles very easily. It's a 'breeze' to clean. And it sure does fan! I really like it.

Just lift it off of the back. No problem. The part that is hard to keep cleaned is the heater part. Minerals collect and form a crust on it.

Not too hard to clean but it is important to throughly clean it regularly, after each use if possible. The hardest part to clean is the kettle but again with consistent maintenance it's not bad. The unpopped kernels fall into a tray that slides right out to dump, and the rest just needs wiped out. We use soapy water on a cloth then wipe it out with a wet cloth & let it air dry. Hope that helps

It is not difficult to clean. It is not a nonstick surface but it is a very high grade stainless steel.

I have never tried to take mine fully apart. I am afraid the small tabs that hold the two halves together would break off. I haven't had any problems cleaning it as long as it is unlocked.

its not hard to clean. I use it everyday and I just throw the parts in the dishwasher and wipe the outside of the motor housing. The 'extra large" feed shute is bigger than the last one that I had which doesnt tell you much, but it has been sufficient for me, and I use mine at work where we feed about 50 people a day and it does the job very well. Im happy with it so far
