My spinner arrived with a hole in the center of the perforated spinning basket where it pivots on the raised point of the exterior basket. Normal?

No, it's supposed to be solid in that little indentation. If the hole slows down the spinning (and that basket normally spins way fast), I'd return it.

Yes mine spins. The one you have may be bent during shipment rendering it stiff.

We have owned our Spin dryer for over 3 years and have had no such trouble. Sounds like this component did not get secured properly during assembly.

There is a metal part which distances the basket from the stem. Also I use it with an electric kick scooter so the wheel is way down

The basket insert is flat on the bottom. If it is bent, perhaps you should contact the manufacturer.

Not sure if you're still having the issue, but it sounds similar to something that was happening to me a while ago. There was a bunch of hair stuck up behind that front middle wheel. I have no idea how to remove the wheel or if that's even possible, but I managed to get it out by cutting a piece of paper (a heavier kind-like a postcard type. I used a flyer I got in the mail.) and pushing it through the space behind the wheel and pulling the hair chunks out the other end. If that makes sense?

My lid just developed a hole in it, too. I'm just curious if your lid is sporting a perfect circle right in the center? (That's what mine looks like.)

Thanks for the info! I opened up the housing and found that the plastic pin that forms a 'pivot' for the orange handle was partially broken. No hope of repair without buying new parts. So (like you), I rigged the switch to be permanently on! Still have all my fingers & toes after one mow.

I'm guessing it's a defect. I inspected mines and it is level on the bottom basket.

The bottom appears to be coated with some kind of non-stick material that gradually flakes off in the washing. The spinner disk has a plastic base and handle, and the lid is plastic. The solution may be a trip to Italy?!

Hi Try to place the breadpan so it will fit the bottom of the basket to the rotor of the machine, having aligned the side clips. Then, push it and don't expect it will go smooth, use some "gentle" force. If is not latching perfectly, the blade will not be rotated properly by the rotor. Scott has a good advise and if is not working ... return it! I am still not happy with cycle 1 and 2, I am using it mostly for cycle 9 (dough) and bake it in the oven. Not sure how useful is my opinion, hope it will help!

I never had a problem, it just screwed right in. I just unscrewed it to check: the bottom part definitely has threads on the outside of the pole part and the middle pole has threads on the inside. Must be defective. :( Have them send you another.

Hello mommymichelle5, Sorry for long delay, I miss this email, too many emails in basket. To answer your question; I do not know why there is a hole in the upper left corner, I see no real purpose. That is a good question. If you ever find out, please let me know. Thanks!

No that is not normal, nor does it mean it defective though. You may have a piece of sand/dirt preventing the seal on the pin to close fully.

No. Mine was a physical jam and I had to pull out the spinner and stick it back in.

I don't think that's normal. Mine does spin for awhile, but only until it gets to slot 1. I'm not sure why yours is malfunctioning, but you should probably contact the manufacturer and/or seller. Hope that helps.

See my Feb 2014 review "Inexpensive fix for front axle breakage". No reason you couldn't do that fix before the metal bracket cuts through the plastic pin. On the other hand, why do it before you have to. With some care, you should be able to drill small hole in axle with hand drill and put in brass screws. For me, it was worth $15 to have shop get it all centered and perpendicular. Mine now works better than when new, but we'll see how long it lasts. I don't see any wear on metal bracket or brass screw yet, so hopeful. KC
