When I look at the Quick Start Guide, which is only ictures, it does not show the dome attached - show it be removed before putting in the dryer?

I am not sure what you are looking at. The cover to the unit is attached and can be opened and closed after putting hearing aids inside. There is a push button on the front that controls the start up of the ultra-violet light and the heating fan. They both shut down automatically. I have to remember to shut the lid/cover after removing my hearing aids so that the desiccant brick isn't sucking up moisture when left opened. I hope this helps. Write back again if you need additional help. I really like this product and it should prolong the life of my hearing aids.

You should not have to remove that ear canal piece. I have two pair of over the ear type aids; one waterproof for sports and another that is not. I keep one pair in the dryer when not being used; both pair overnight. Plenty of room in the unit. I've used this unit for a couple of months now. I bought 3 desiccant bricks last week for under $10 on ebay; good for another six months.

You should remove any foil from the top of the dry and store brick before using it.

I could not find a bonnet replacement, either. My bonnet tore within 2 times of me using the dryer. Very frustrating. Duct tape has helped--(looks really tacky!)--but you have to keep re-taping.

Instructions say yes, first disconnect power cord and wash. Preheat dryer on low for 2 min put pad in dryer tumble on low ten min. Take out still damp gently strech to original size drape over shower rod until completley dry.

This is a Whirlpool/Sears product. I would suggest that if your dryer does not product heat and the coils are broken or damaged; you should google your model number looking for a parts listing. When you see the element they should provide a drawing of the various parts in this assembly. From what I have seen these are much a standard part. You might want to try this trick, if this is the only part you need to replace. This is some type of fuse to keep your dryer from overheating. Take it out and if you can test the leads, if you can. If not the top should be flat and yours may now be more domned. If this is the case throw in on a concrete floor three or four times. This causes the dome to flatten and if you did measure the ohms should see a change from negative to positive. Bottom line no need to replace this part, if this is all that is wrong.

I just put mine in the washer and dryer. Looks more wrinkly now but it still works fine.

I use the brush attachment from my old dryer, it stays on. The fins to hold it on are slightly thicker than on the new brush. It is disappointing that it is sold this way and that I have to use an old brush on it.

It is on the top post hidden by a cap. Mine took forever to warm a towel and didn't do a good job at keeping it warm. Mine is in storage now. Good luck. Wendi

The filter cover just pops off, inside there is a black plastic piece. Pull it out and the filter will come out. Otherwise you can just clean it while still attached to the dryer with a dry soft bristle brush.

I don't have a dome on top of mine. I have a metal basket like cover. This is detachable.

The dome is for an old model that is discontinued. If you want it you have to buy it in pieces. Good news is you need the base, the pump, and the filters; these actually cost less apart then what the new item went for.

I had a hard time with that too! My wife figured it out. To remove the "clear" part from the "not-clear" part, look along the attachments that are connected when you press the bottom release button. The part located at the border of the "clear" and "not-clear" part can be pressed. Press this in, pull and (here is the step I could not figure out and did not want to force for fear of breaking it) lower the clear container a little bit and pull in the opposite direction on the opposite side to release the one additional clip. I have not yet done this myself. My wife did it, and washed it, and now we are waiting for it to dry. Seems pretty sturdy though, you seem to be able to pull it a little more than I thought would be reasonable. This post was from a year ago. but hopefully this can help someone (I am betting A Happy Mom has figured it out by now).

Hi, in 9 years renting and then buying our own unit, we have never used a dome. Outdoors at parties, the unit has its own table against our house. Floss does fly up and the maker will get it on his/her arm. It's okay !

We used this for the 1st time this past weekend. We didn't buy a dome and it worked fine without it.

The blue base will detach from the dome by unscrewing the green fitting counter-clockwise. It may stick a bit but this is the correction direction. Ideally, the green fitting should never be screwed tight.

It can be removed. It's a little tricky the first time. I recommend using the manual instructions the first time. After that it's easy. I machine wash mine on gentle or hand wash even though the manual says not to machine wash. The fabric is still in great condition and I didn't have a shrinking problem even with using the dryer.

I own the model before this one, and it came with a removable cover (similar to a pillow case) which was perfect for removing and cleaning! Can't believe they change that feature. With that said, I would simply recommend putting a blanket over it (flannel receiving blanket/swaddle blankets/anything similar) and then those can easily be removed and washed as needed. Actually, even owning the one with the removable cover, I still threw a light blanket over it. We just had so many little blankets, it was easy to cover it and then toss that in the wash and put on a new one the next day or as needed. I still highly recommend this item and buy it for all baby showers! Just wish they'd had kept the removable cover.

My attachments are very secure but you must put the brush and combs in place according to directions. There is a small switch at one end that you must move before you put the brush on and then be sure that it moves back once the brush is in place. I have been using my dryer for several months. The only problem I have had is trying to get replacement combs...I had to contact the main office...the contact center on the order form kept sending the wrong combs.
