Does the diffuser need to be cleaned after a certain amount of uses?

If you use tap/hard water, you will get a calcium build-up after awhile and it will need to be cleaned. I would suggest using distilled water.

I haven't done any special cleaning. I use filtered tap water. If any water/oil residue remains I just wipe it out with a paper towel.

We've had it for quite some time now and have had no need to do any major cleaning. Just use good quality oils and you'll be okay.

I wipe it out with a paper towel after each use, and wash by hand every two or three days. I also leave it on 24/7

After using the aerator for a while and multiple times through the wash I would recommend replacing it. This is just to insure you are getting the most out of your aerator.

How to clean the diffuser: 1. Use equal parts natural vinegar and water. Use enough to cover the bottom inside the base. Let the mixture sit inside the base for 15-20 minutes to help break up the oils that may have accumulated on the ceramic discs inside the Diffuser. Then use a soft cotton fabric to clean the mist disc (on the bottom middle) and the sensor in the bottom of the unit with the vinegar solution in the tank. 2. Rinse with water (be careful when you empty the water, so that it doesn't get into the motor). That's it!

I don't have that problem..... Love my diffuser especially when using my Le cruiset and wanting a long slow cook for a stew or soup. I do have a gas stove and when I have the pot at or near a boil I move it on to the mat and it smears right along ..... Have never had a problem and have been using it for 2 years or more..... Great temperature control under all materials and has worn well.....

I had mine for several years before I bought a new one. I just cleaned the old one regularly

There is a good video on youtube that shows how to clean the diffuser. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ExkH1Ohxa9Y. Just remove the bottle and use rubbing alcohol to soak the glass parts. You can also use hot water if the clog is very thick.

Like anything else, it has to be cleaned after each use. It's not hard to thoroughly clean and is a great machine.

I've only used it a few times, but I know it has a Hepa filter that can be replaced when needed. The other filter can be cleaned. Hope this is helpful.

A lot of times, don't worry. You can use hot water to clean it without any problem

Never been a problem with mine either... but I wouldn't recommend purchasing this diffuser. Please read my original comments.

Hi, I think it also depends on if you just have it on for humidity or if you have it on as diffuser. I have never had it 10/12 hours or if I did, very rarely. I had a regular diffuser that I bought not from amazon and that one truly lasts. its called the premium whisper diffuser off abundanthealth. This one is ok, but isn't exactly how I would have wanted it to work. takes more ti fill and clean where as the other one I had was quite a sinch. Anyway, sometimes the wate lasts a bit longer than 3 hours, but rarely the 10/12 hours. Maybe I am doing something wrong on my end. Hope I helped some.

I am waiting on response from one daughter, the other says she has not had an issue at all. I have never used the diffuser attachment. I'll update this answer when I hear back from my daughter.
