Does anyone else have problems getting the Large and Medium funnels to connect? In my set they look like they should screw together, but no luck.

I've got 2 sets of these, the blue middle does indeed screw onto the red upper, I have no issues with mine doing so

My large and medium funnels connect without any problem. However, I did have difficulties with the medium and small ones. I went to Cuisipro's website and emailed their customer service. They replied promptly with a solution. Hope they can help you as well.

I started having that issue when I first got this. I realized my problem was overfilling. The liquid level needs to be around the level stated in the instructions. Once you get an idea of where that is using the funnel, you can eyeball it from that point and you should not have anymore problems.

I had no problem bringing them together on my AR-240. I can't help, but do wonder if it was switched with a "replacement" hose, for I keep reading about folks getting the wrong hose; and they look alike, except for the connectors. Hope you get it resolved. Amazon is good about taking items back...if in the timeframe - you might check that out.

Mine did the same thing. I just pushed them back in and that worked. It was rather difficult to do, but they went in. Just make sure to push at the base of the yellow spigot. If you try to press ON the yellow spigot or the metal piece that sticks out you may damage it and it could start leaking. I hope that works for you!!

I tried to do the same thing. Even though it is a semicircle like my other one, they were slightly different sizes. I able to make it fit but had to use a lot of pressure. You might want to try a local place so you can quickly return and try another if need be.

I found that the parts had to be inserted enough distance to stay together, but it was difficult for the tubes to fit into each other. I think I sprayed the tubes with something to allow them to slide together. I haven't taken it apart since then!

I use a funnel with a quarter inch diameter stem, and it works well. The opening in the bottle neck is slightly larger...maybe 5/8 inch. Hope this is helpful information.

The connectors come off too easily. Maybe google the company to see if they sell more parts. We bought two and they connect.

I had that problem at first, and then I realized that I had the orange connector piece in the wrong position. The larger hole slips over the end of the cross-bar, and the smaller portion fits into the upright posts. Hope this helps.

Hi Mike: I did the same thing you did. Figured the tips shown would be for the couplers shown. Not so. Your best bet is to go to the Ateco web page and download the catalog. (What I did) And find the size of tips that you need and in the section that the tips are in is the correct coupler. Order through there or find another brand! Hope this helps, Larry

You have to screw them on counterclockwise, pull the black pipe out about 6 inches, then screw on the connector in the direction of the arrows on the connector. It took me a few tries but I am a pro at them now.

No they didn't, but the funnel's are easy to make yourself or you can just pour slowly. None of my guys I gave them too said they had any trouble with that issue.

I wish I could help you. I never had that problem. There usually is a clip on the handles to keep them together. Good Luck.

OMG! Me too! I can NOT get the spout to line up between the handles. It always ends up over the handle no matter where I start to spin the top on. I have had some cups that need to start in a certain spot in order to end up in the middle. But this one will only be between the handles if I don't twist it tight. And when I do that, it LEAKS. I do have the handle in the proper position between the little slots too. Grrrrrrrrr!!!!! I think these are going back to the store.

Hmmm. I have had to use a screw driver as well, but with success. So, my only advice is to try again with the screw driver because the lid is very tight. Good luck.

My top, the end with the little funnel, comes off as an assembly with a quarter turn to the left (lefty loosey - righthy tighty). As Lionel says, the assembly is glued, although my funnel slips off (not glued). There is a rubber seal that may be the reason yours is sticking so tightly because I've had a similar problem with whole house water filter that wouldn't unscrew due to a tight rubber seal.

Search for a "conical separatory funnel" on Amazon and see if you can find one that looks similar. This is part of the reason I bought this unit, after pricing the glass I was very close to the cost.
