do you have to put oil in it

You have to grease it, but not oil. It also has a service light that will come on when it needs attention.

I used tablets to sanitize it. If your oil is hot I would say no and even if cold no.

My husband says yes. However, he adds that you might want to cover your hands with gloves after you use the oil, because they will be greasy.

No, you do not have to remove the oil between uses, I leave it in there indefinitely, and continue to fill it as needed

No. The oil is encased in the heater. No muss, no fuss! It's a great heater!

No, and it needs tons of oil in it to be able to work. I was never able to use it.

Mine needed oil to be added. I would think that yours was test run and they forgot to remove the oil before shipping it.

Yes. Thats all I use because when it heat up it bubbles and then when you put the food in it takes up room so in order to keep it from spilling over you don't fill it all the way up. They put a mark on the inside to indicate where the oil should good....great little item...

yes, I really don't have to clean it. I don't use oily essential oils, ones that have added oil. Just use clean essential oils and it will clean itself.

I have not used any oil with mine since I've had it. Not sure where you can get it.

It came with oil in it. I bought a quart of oil in case it needed some, but I used it a lot last year as we had a bad winter, it used no oil and did a great job. I'm really impressed with it's performance

I brushed oil on it for the first use to season it...but no oil after that. I guess you could try it, but the instructions say to season it.

You need to burn it once after purchasing it to burn the manufacturer oil but after that no it doesnt

There's no oil filter, so I would have to say no. I'm still breaking it in (less than 5 hours on it).

It comes oiled already, but you will have to buy oil the first time you clean it

I bring the pan in only. I just place the oil back in the original container.
