Is this a new model? Sunbeam stopped making the a few years ago. I owned 3 of them but the dial kept breaking. It was the best appliance ever.

Yes, they did stop making them. So no, this is the same model they have always had. I have sold these for quite some time, and use one myself, and have never heard a single complaint about the dial breaking. Seems very well made to me. of course I just turn it to the time I looked up in the manual for what I am cooking, and let it run until the bell goes off... then I chow down! I love it too. Maybe try another, and be extra gentle with it and make sure no moisture gets in it. Scottperfect choice

I don't think so. I love my rocket grill. I use it daily. My knob broke too. I went on sunbeam . Com and ordered two they were so cheap.

Yes, they stopped making this model. I have had to replace the dial once, but my real problem is the small magnet in the lid to hold it shut, I keep loosing it when the lid is hot it falls out. I still love my Rocket Grill and everyone who sees it work always wants one, I wish I knew why they stopped making it.

This is the newest model that Sunbeam made but unfortunately they have been discontinued as stated. Fortunately, they are still widely supported and parchment pouches are still being manufactured. I recently purchased a package of 3 reusable teflon pouches that are supposed to be good for 50 uses. I accidentally damaged one of them the second time I used it so the jury is still out on those. Personally, I own 3 of these. One for the kitchen that we probably use no less than twice a week, one I bought for my buddies boat so we can cook quick, easy meals after a hard day fishing (LOL) and one that sits in the closet just in case either of the other two should fail. I haven't ever had a dial break but I have seen them for sale so I'm thinking I may grab one or two of those based on what you have told me. And you are absolutely right when you said they are the best appliance ever!

My current HotShot is new and this has not happened. However, my older one (still in use 10 yrs at office) darkened and I have not experienced any problems as a result. I would not be worried if it happened with my new one but the questions should be put to Sunbeam. Other responses offer good suggestions, IMHO.

Let me come back with a question. Since bulb replacement appears to be (or is becoming) a major problem, why doesn't SECURA answer this question FOR EVERYBODY themselves, along with a step-by-step procedure for replacement? Make it an open response. The machine's worth it, by the way. A really great oven! BJ

We do not have that problem with ours. It is easy to turn the dial and we use it everyday.

Hi Katherine, all I did when looking for a replacement bowl, was go online to Amazon and typed in "replacement bowl for Sunbeam mixer" not sure if I had model or not as my mixer is very old. They had a couple to choose from and I had it in a couple days. Hope this answer helps you!

Now, here is a kicker. On BH site it shows as DISCONTINUED! So what's the replacement if it's the case? I was hesitant to pull a trigger a couple of weeks ago when price was around $435 and obviously have missed the opportunity. However, if this is already an old model, I am very interested in a replacement.

This is my 2nd Black & Decker Infrawave Oven also. My first one just didn't come on one day and since I had used it so much for about four years I just thought it was time for a new one. I really don't know what was wrong. I didn't have it checked out.

Just google the model number. You should find a link to the Sunbeam site for the manual.

I found replacement parts for this bread maker on e-bay. The Sunbeam website is always out of stock.

I have both the turn dial and the digital. I love them both. I personally like the digital one better because I can see the temperature much easier. Heating up time seems to be the same, by far the best flat iron I've ever had.

On their website, the knob on my lid broke also. http://sunstea.com Search for lid and I found it.

I have one too and the timer doesn't work. I quite working after a couple of months. Other than that, it seems to be holding up ok. I don't have a contact number but wish my timer wouldn't have stopped working.

Julie, I've owned two of the Cuisinart openers and given away a couple more as gifts. I too have had a problem with one of the opener's plastic gadget breaking and another with the motor failing. This over a three year span. They are attractive, but I doubt I will buy any more.

The majority of the posts are positive. However, a few fuss about "breakage" and/or the heating element dying out after a couple of uses.What model is yours? I am begining to comprehend the proper uses and the best recipes, but "model numbers" are not given with the posts.MML

I called Crosley and was told light was not replaceable. I pressed the issue and was told the radio would have to be completely dismantled. So that ended that. Very disappointing, as that old fashioned feature was a big plus in my decision to purchase to begin with. As far as the rest of the radio's performance.....it's fine.The radio is played daily for many hours. The light went out after a year. I use a tiny flashlight to see in order to tune in different stations because you just can't read the dial without it's light.

Sorry to say, I gave this as a gift but the device broke. The magnets were insufficient to keep the timer in place. But I see that another I purchased, a Sunbeam oblong-shaped one indeed has the feature you describe. I've been very satisfied with it so far but haven't needed the magnet embedded into the back of the timer.

I have this same model that just broke after about 5 years. The hinge that holds that casing cover came apart. It's time for a new one, plan to buy this model. It made great waffles.
