Does the chemical smell inside the mill wear off quickly? It is currently over powering, but I would hate to send such a great mill back.

I did not have that problem when I got my mill last Christmas. I would contact the seller and ask for an exchange. Food products & chemical odors don't mix. We have been very happy with our mill. I imagine they will exchange it.

I'm sure you've dealt with this by now, but for others who might read this. I have two of these wonderful crocks. I noticed a lingering odor in one after fermenting pickles. I use nothing more than earth friendly dish soap and water for cleaning. Over time the odor disappeared on its own. I was unconcerned as I knew that I would only be using it for fermenting food.

I never had a smell or odor emitted from this toaster. Can it be your outlet that is causing the problem? If not, send it back as defective and request replacement or refund.

Hello... First, I'm very pleased with mine. It works very well. I clean the detachable parts with soap and water and the inside of the nozzle that is on the side of the machine with a toothpick. That loosens any caked on flour. I then turn the machine sideways to knock out any flour bits. Very easy. The outside of the mill I simply wiped down with a damp cloth. I hope this helps.

I wish I did. That honestly sounds like a mechanical issue, have you had any paper jams, and if so are you sure all the junk paper is cleaned out? Just a random thought. I haven't had any noise issues with mine.

We are having a hard time with this issue as well. I have tried cleaning it, and it still smells. Parts of it are starting to turn reddish / orange as well, so I am going to stop using it. We have well water, and I'm wondering if that could be the issue?

It was not a problem I didn't notice any smell, its quartz electric nothing to burn off. I do the same as the other guy stated in his review i cover it up during the summer when I use my tools in the workshop such as table saw, bench grinder air compresser ect.

Have not been able to find an answer to your question. Some reviewers talked about a smell coming from the timer. I have not found this to be the case.

Hello,I got this vac and have had no problems. There was a bit of a smell the very first time I used it, but by the second time there was nothing noticeable. Mine has been a wonderful machine to use with absolutely no problems. I hope that you have the same experience.

It had a *strong* chemical smell when I unpacked it and as I was assembling it, but 24 hours later it seems to be odorless. If you have a strong reaction to that sort of thing, I'd have a friend unpack it outside or in the garage and then I'd let it air out for a few hours or a day before assembling it.

Yes, I had that burning smell as well. And some sparking as well. It is not normal and very dangerous. I stopped use it and thrown out it.

In answering another question on the mill, I found some information. First, though, do you have a Wonder Mill or a Whisper Mill? "The Utah-based Grainmaster Whispermill Company went out of business about 8 years ago and no longer exists. The Whispermill grain mill was not produced for over a year after the company's closing. Unfortunately all warranty promises died with the Whispermill Company. "After seeing and hearing that there was a need in the market for a return of this type of grain mill, and after requests from dealers worldwide, our Idaho-based company, Brownwick LLC, was formed. Brownwick LLC purchased and secured all molds and production rights for the Whispermill in an after bankruptcy sale from a third party. Brownwick LLC does not have and never has had any business relationship with the Whispermill Company. "After purchasing the molds and production equipment Brownwick LLC put this mill back into production as THE WONDERMILL. Along with the rebirth of THE WONDERMILL came many big improvements and internal changes. These changes have made THE WONDERMILL far superior to the old Whispermill, as well as all other grain mills on the market today." http://www.thewondermill.com/index.php/module/statics/action/view_listing/page/41 If it is a Wonder Mill, then the following may be helpful: A lifetime warranty is included with every WonderMill. http://www.thewondermill.com/ http://www.thewondermill.com/pdfs/warranty_form.pdf I hope this helps.

two to 3 times, you will get that smell. its not an issue and it is due to new coils inside grinder.

I just opened mine and got the same chemical smell. It is disconcerting. I'll leave them open for a bit and see.

I have read many reviews that said their brush smelled mine does not. The only issue i have is bristles falling out. I think if you get it wet it will smell but if its over powering send it back.

Mine just came and it has a horrendous chemical smell. Will update in a week or two and let you know if it persists.

Mine started making a lot of noise, at all times of the day, not just while brewing. Then it started brewing incorrect water sizes. Finally it just stopped working completely, no power at all. I called Cuisinart and they offered to send me a new one for $10. I had to ship the old one back, but it is still worth it.
