I purchased my unit from "TZSeller" and he informed me that if I need parts to just email him and he could get them..Don't know if that is where you got yours but hopefuly whoever you purchased the heater from could help you..It has a 3 year warranty.

my heating element went out after 18 months. I replaced it and haven't had any problems since (4 years now).

Okay, here's was my strategy. Replace them all. The complete lot of switches and fuses was $15. The heating element was $17. A service call in my area is $80 before parts. Simple math says . . .

your best bet is to contact casa Essentials directly, they will send you an e-mail with their parts list and prices. Personally I don't think that buying replacement parts is worth it.

Uh.. ye-ah! Seriously, this things dont last forever. What's the alternative.. get it repaired? Good luck with that.I'm not being a smart ass.. I'm realistic. At the price you originally paid, a unit with reparable parts would be 2 -3 times more expensive.

I had one that had a burned part too. Since I don't know what caused the part to burn out, I did not trust replacing the part.....just replaced the whole unit...not expensive to do that, and I trusted that more.

check with a vendor. if it isn't sold separately, check with used appliance stores and see if they have spare parts of this unit. good luck!

I would try e-bay, because the manufacturer phone # does not provide service any more. I tried to buy an extra gasket because I know they eventually wear out, and was told when I called that they no longer supply parts, service, or help of any kind. This was about a year ago. If you are able to return the pressure cooker you might want to do that. If not you could disassemble it to sell the parts on e-bay. I need a gasket :). I hope Montel is hanging his head in shame over this, but most likely he's laughing his way to the bank and doesn't care.

As far as I know there is nothing you can do to fix that other than to replace the part. You might find the occasional well-stocked hardware store that would have the part you are after but the better bet would be to contact Thermos directly at: 1-800-831-9242 or visit www.thermos.com. I have been handwashing mine - not sure if that absolutely needs to happen but so far there have been no issues doing it that way. Good luck!

You might be able to make it work with an adapter, but I don't think I would trust a heating element on an adapter. I would suggest buying one there.

I don't think they sell parts. Mine died after about a year so I ordered a new one. The new one only lasted a few months and died.

Good Luck , look at e-bay sometimes people will sell the parts there ! Too bad that this is no longer made because it worked so good !!!

I'm uncertain about a replacement. It might be less expensive to replace the entire unit. Although, if you go to the company website they may offer one.

TRy rebuilding the unit. The rebuild kit sells for about $200 and you have a brand new unit. It only takes an hour to rebuild and well worth the price.

Don't buy it. If you read my review you'll see it doesn't last long and you can't get parts. Check out the Williams heater on Amazon.

"Replacement parts, if available, may be ordered directly from Focus Electrics, LLC several ways. Order online at www.focuselectrics.com , email service@focuselectrics.com , over the phone by calling (866)290-1851, or by writing to: Focus Electrics, LLC Attn: Customer Service P. O.
