how do you take apart the pitcher?

It seems like it's attached but it just has a relatively snug fit. The lid and the hose (the hose that attached to the faucet) are one piece, and the lid does come off if you fiddle with it a little bit.

The top lid opens and the filter can be removed with a quarter turn from the locked indicator to the unlocked indicator. The filter status indicator automatically resets back to full green. I got five months use out of the first filter. I filled it about once per day.

You can only take off the lid of the pitcher. At first its very difficult but then its easy.

At the top end by the handle where the cord comes in, pull it up. It doesn't come easy but that will loosen it enough to just pull the insides up and out. Hope this helps.

I've used a butter knife between the bottom of the lid and the side of my thumb to pry it open. Just be careful not to spill it everywhere!

You need to pull out the part holding the blade, then twist it, and pull the blade out

Take off the silicone covering. There is a square tab on each side & the top. Those click open (from bottom side I think) and this allows the shell to come apart.

Push it down in the hole towards the top of the lid and then pull it out. To replace it, lay the new one it and slowly work it into the area between the top part of the lid and the middle area.

Lift the lid handle up and then pull STRAIGHT up. You need to hold onto the handle of the blender w/one hand and pull the lid off w/the other, once you figure it out, it won't be difficult. I was rocking it off, which is hard to do, but my husband showed me how to just pull it off and voila! It's just that first time, lol!

Try tightening with wrench first. If it happens again and your pitcher still in perfect shape just buy a new blades part and keep the same pitcher. You will save, a lot of money this way and no sense replacing pitcher if there is no issue with it.

I am so frustrated with this pitcher. I fond it close to impossible to take apart. Now I can't get the piece that holds thd fruit back in. I hate this pitcher

The top should turn and separate in the middle. I use a straight edge razor and pry the middle open.

Twist the top off while pulling up. Simultaneously pull the bottom down with the other hand. It's tight, but unless you got one that was maybe squashed it shouldn't require a hammer.

I couldn't find a way to separate without breaking it. So I end up just rinsing it out after use. In that way it is a poor design. If someone knows how to do it, I would be interested in knowing too.

You put the cutter down over the top of the bottle, squeeze the sides of the cutter together, and rotate about half a turn. The top of the foil comes off cleanly, like a disk. Then you use your favorite cork puller to remove the cork. It works fine -- much better than a different model I used before.

The heating element has a cord, the pitcher is removable, but you need the heating element plugged in for it to work.

The base of the canister should unscrew from the long body of the canister (canister:housing of filter) . At least that is how I got mine open with no tools except maybe gloves, and likely leather garden gloves to get a better grip.

1st remove the rubber back, the pull apart the plastic case I start at the top, you need to pull apart with firm pressure you can also use a quarter to start the pull apart process. I hope help you

It's pretty easy once you know how. Put your thumb on the outside of the bowl and the side of your index finger on the nub of the filter. Squeeze your fingers together and the filter should pop right out. The filter can be disassembled by holding the nub in one hand and pulling the bottom of the filter away at the notches. That too should come right off.

There's a hole in the side that's not for a button, take a screw driver or something and just gap it apart. the rest is just gently applying force until it separates. I haven't found a better way to do it.
