Make sure the kettle is snapped in correctly...or Perhaps it's faulty...mine turns fine.

Try putting it upside down on a simmering pot of water. I had to do it several times and there was still a little curl which my husband then curled backward, it now works like it's supposed to.

Make sure the attachment is pushed all the way in, then turn the locking ring at the top of the handle. It can be difficult to turn!

Hi Try to place the breadpan so it will fit the bottom of the basket to the rotor of the machine, having aligned the side clips. Then, push it and don't expect it will go smooth, use some "gentle" force. If is not latching perfectly, the blade will not be rotated properly by the rotor. Scott has a good advise and if is not working ... return it! I am still not happy with cycle 1 and 2, I am using it mostly for cycle 9 (dough) and bake it in the oven. Not sure how useful is my opinion, hope it will help!

Your center support bar is upside down, unscrew it and flip it over. The handle bars are suppose to extend outward.

If you find it hard to turn this maybe the reason. Be sure the basket is really centered in the bowl before you close the lid or it won't spin easily. In the middle of the handle there is a button. Click that button to release the handle and then just push the handle down a couple of times and the basket will spin. When everything is lined up it will spin very smoothly with very little effort. Hope this helps you because this is the best salad spinner I have ever used. Once you get the hang of it I know you'll like it.

I would add more water. And stirring mid way works. I only had this problem once and i use it at least once a week. Love it

In some cases when the toaster oven is new, it can be tough to turn. In time and with use, it will become easier to turn. For now please make sure that your hands are not damp. If the problem continues please contact Oster direct for troubleshooting

I just kept it on my counter, but I would turn it upside down because when you get to the bottom it's way too thick, if not. There's no way to stir it. I did shake every time I used it but wasn't good enough.

Dear Pamela, In order to turn the waffle maker, turn the handle in the direction of the arrow that is located on the handle. There isn't anything you have to loosen to enable it to turn. I hope this helps!

Try dripping a little oil on the stopper then twist. I have not had that problem; I am able to just twist it out each time. I may be wrong, but I believe glass expands when heated. If I am correct, let the cruet cool, drip a little oil, then twist.

I don't know if you are still looking for an answer to your question but if you are - we have been using this model of the Stir Crazy popper for probably 30 years & we have had this problem when we have not seated the stirring rod on the unit correctly. If you unscrew the black knob that holds the rod in place & check to make sure you have the rod not only in the grooves correctly but the right side up you should see that the stirring rod is even in height on both sides. I happened to be looking at the poppers because after about 15 years of weekly uses we've worn ours out & will be replacing it with this same model we've had such good luck with in the past.

I tried exactly that with different spices and the answer is no. The pull force needs to be stronger.

Funny you should ask. I just encountered the same problem when I had to change my batteries for the first time day before yesterday. I ended up using a pair of pliers (it turns really hard) and discovered also that I had been turning the dial the wrong direction (my brain is old, you see...lol), I was turning right instead of left. I thoroughly dusted all the powdery substance the grater had accumulated and it went back together smoothly. Working like a charm again. Good luck!

Hi. This handle is pretty easy to turn. If your mother can use a spoon to stir she should be able to use the sifter. Hope this helps.

I have a gas stove. So I don't even bother using the ring; I just hold onto the wok handle with my left hand and stirfry with my right hand. It wobbles, but I've never had any problem with it. The wok just sits on top of my stove all the time; I don't even store it away.
