I purchased this roaster in April of this year to use this Thanksgiving. We have lost the care and use instructions for cleaning and using it. Help!

Any product or pad recommended for stainless steel will work fine... I have run mine in the dishwasher several times without detriment; I also use plastic scrubber and Dawn liquid for the tough spots / manual cleaning. Hope this helps...Bar Keepers Friend is excellent as well. TomT

The use of this pan is pretty straight forward--use it for anything on the stove or in the oven. After all, it is a high quality, well-constructed stainless steel cooking appliance. Keep in mind you actually have two pans that will also work as one roaster since the lid is actually a shallow pan. Cleaning is also pretty easy regardless of how browned and crusty it gets during use. Wash first with soap and water and while still warm, use a generous amount of Bar Keepers Friend and a scouring pad on both the inside and outside. Without fail, it will look almost as good as new!

Sorry Barbara, I gave my copy of the recipe book (came with my new pressure cooker) to my daughter-in-law, along with my old 20 yr old Nordic pressure cooker. I'm sure if you contact the Nordic people they will send you one.You can get a new sealing ring through them so I hope you are lucky on the book.Sheila.

1. Turn off and unplug the coffeemaker. Wait for the warming plate to completely cool before cleaning. 2. Combine warm water & a few drops of dish-washing liquid. Dip a clean, soft cloth or paper towl into the mixture & wipe the warming plate until the burned-on residue is gone. 3. Apply a small amount of vinegar to a cleaning sponge if the cleaning mixture does not remove the burned-on residue. Scrub gently to remove the residue. 4. Dampen a clean cloth or paper towel with water and wipe the warming plate. 5. Allow the warming plate to air dry completely, or dry it with a towel before turning the coffeemaker on. Good Luck! 1.

Yes, I loved my machine when it worked. My first machine worked for one roasting cycle, then died. My second machine worked perfectly for six months then overheated badly and died. The company rep either had an e-mail box that was full, voice mail that was full or did not return calls. I would NEVER buy from them again.

I don't recall what the instructions said, you should be able to find those online. My dishwasher is not very large, and if I tried to use this in there, no room for anything else! So I hand wash, in fact, I use the roaster for my dish pan when it's dirty, then rinse and dry it. Works great!

I just made a turkey in this roaster. I had the turkey on a rack inside the roaster. Added about 2 cups of water and put the lid on. I basted every 30-45 minutes. Removed the lid for about the last 45 minutes of cooking. The turkey was moist and the skin was crisp. Just had the last turkey sandwich for lunch today. Enjoy!

Well, some friends roasted smores over mine recently and it was ok... Last time someone reheated some meat as a last resource and after some drinks, it dripped some fat on the black iron of the "bowl" (pit) and it was kinda hard to clean. If you don't plan to keep it superneat and it's just getting some flames on your hot dogs using a skewer or similar, I don't see why not...

I have noticed browning at the bottom of mine, as well, although I have had it for several months now and use it regularly. I first noticed it after food I was making still smelled like the broccoli and I wasn't making broccoli. I checked the reservoir and noticed burnt-looking brownish residue. I tried to clean it using a bottle brush with the sponge-tip; it helped but did not get it all off. I have watched very carefully and have not noticed any impact on the food (no discoloration, flakes, or change in taste). I am VERY PLEASED with the Freshfoods Cook-n-Blend Baby Food Maker!!

Yes, you can use a SOS pad to clean the roaster. If you clean the roaster as soon as it's cool enough to handle, you won't need the SOS pad, just some dish detergent and a dish scubber is all you will need. Cleans very easily, with little effort.

Fortunately, I have some VERY recent info on that rack :) I ruined mine...by I guess overheating it in the broiler or putting it in the dishwasher. Normally, I use the pan for baking/grilling etc and it is super for single or small servings. But, I used it to grill hotdogs and accidentally left it in the oven and next day went to preheat oven and the rack was a mess....as the plastic or whatever coating on it half melted and or came off in places. If you put it in hot oil I think it will ruin it. It is definitely not stainless steel but a metal with a black coating looks like vinyl. Hope this helps.

Check the instruction booklet or call cuisinart directly. They are very helpful.

I haven't. By inside 'the cookwell', do you mean the roaster with the liner out? The liner itself can be soaked and I can actually put that thru my dishwasher, which I do; (Not the roaster itself obviously). The cookwell is remarkably easy to clean.

I washed it originally then I heated it ( be carful not to over heat it or scorch it) with bacon grease. I kept adding a little and wiping it around. After I used it, I soaked it in some water, then wiped it out, heated and greased it again. Store it in the broiler if you have one.

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!

I bought one of these from Amazon (used), it didn't work. Luckily I was able to return it and get my money back. I also bought a cookbook from Amazon that never arrived (they said it was undeliverable - what a joke!). I then bought an oven from Morningware and it blew out the 1st time I tried to use it. Well, they sent me a new power head and all seems to be well now, so..... I just completely disassembled the old one and there is no filter inside. Good Luck!

Sorry, I sent my Sharp oven back (TWICE) because both ovens arrived with major shipping damage. Check with your vendor regarding the warranty. Good luck!
