Very good advice, R. I would add that you need to go to the grill model and then look for another link at lower left to "replacement parts available." I needed a new round grill plate for my large indoor/outdoor model, because that toxic non-stick stuff shreds over time. They had it!

I also need a replacement lid, my husband dropped it, broke the handle in two second time he used it. It can't be fixed surely replacements are available, but where?

Dropped in on the kitchen floor (not too hard) and handle vent broke in two. Hoping warranty covers it.

Oh gosh, sorry, I really don't know if you can buy a part replacement...but it seems very sturdy and I pretty much use it everyday and so far nothing has broken etc. - another customer has helpfully provided an 800 number below so I hope that helps you.

It's amazing you asked this question: the lid's corners broke off after the frst use! I brought a cornbread to a meeting and after I got it home noticed the crumbled catches... I thought, "Dang, someone opened it wrong!" But then again, how does one improperly open a lid? Good question. Pass on this unless you're extremely cautious when removing the lid... don't let someone else open it. If you write to me at musing1 at verizon dot net I'll send you a photo.

You should replace the whole unit. You will be looking for a while just for the handle.

My best guess would be to contact the seller, or Nordic Ware directly to get a new lid. Good Luck.

I am sorry to say that the same thing happened to me and I could find no info on replacement parts. I ended up junking the machine which was a shame as I really liked it. Sorry I can't be od help.

Same thing happened to me on the large one, my husband is very handy and he took the lid apart and there was a wire that got disconnected, he was able to fix it, if it wasnt for him than it would still not be working. If you filled out the product registration than you can contact the company and they will replace it.

I had to send the first one back to Amazon because it was came damaged. You can buy this same thing at Walmart (if you still shop there!) for less, as I did. You shouldn't have to find parts - return it to Amazon. They are very good about returns.

Cracks formed in the lid. They replaced it with one with only one penetration. The original had 2. The crackes formed between the 2 holes. It should be fine now.

I haven't see the lid by itself, but I have a feeling that if someone would contact Nordic Ware directly, I bet they could help you with a new lid. I have had great success with going direct to handle a problem. Give it a try and good luck!

Sorry to hear about that you middle section is broken. I know how easy it is to break, it's pretty delicate. I haven't seen it anywhere to get replacement parts, but try to contact the vendor, perhaps they can help you out.

Mine also failed. The handle broke at the base attachment. I loved the opener but would like it replaced (hopefully a re-enforced version). I think the product must have had manufacturing defect as it was not abused or overused. Now I can't find any phone number or address to inquire about warranty. Anyone have any leads for me?

My handle was completely broken. If you have to pull the handle a few times prior to opening, is it due to the door being locked? My back latch had to be unlocked several times prior to me finally getting it to open up. Then, shortly after, it stopped working and I had to replace it. Not sure if it's possible to do any kind of tightening on it. For me, this part was a pain to change, and if you're going to open it up and tighten it, might as well change it out. I didn't answer your question, because I don't know the answer, but I hope you can fix it. Good luck.

The handle, cracked, and snapped off the basket/filter holder. I called the number listed below, while the customer service was odd (hard to understand and brief, basically they took my info and hung up) but they were nice and helpful. The part is $44 and $6 shipping, we will see how quickly it arrives... while the part is pricey it's better than spending another $200 when it has not been two years since I purchased it and it gets plenty of use.

I'm sorry I can't help you, I do not like this machine because it's not sturdy and gets too hot while holding it down, after my first use I stored it away so I have not had to replace anything, had I used it as soon as I bought it I would have sent it back.....quickly!!!!

I also have the same question. One of the hinged lids broke off this morning while filling. It had been only opened 3 times, 2 times to load and once to use. How do we get replacements

Mine is about 4 years old now, and the plastic of the top handle is just now giving out. I intend to replace it with an exact duplicate of this.
