side covers

Parts fit perfectly and service great as usual. Do suggest that the side covers be made from a more heat resistant plastic.

Glad there are replacement parts

I echo the other reviews: Love the machine, I melted the part by running machine without the glass drum. I love that replacement parts are available, and at least this part was easy to replace (see other reviews for instructions). One note... I watched a YouTube video about how to replace it and there was some misinformation... I think the instructions below are correct. No need to remove the big plastic shield, the part can be replaced with that just open.

Design flaw? Otherwise great roaster!

I really like this roaster but my experience seems to be common in that this was the second time I've had to replace this part. The first was clearly my fault for accidentally running it without the glass drum. This time it was roasting outside on a very hot day.

The part arrived quickly, faster than expected. But it was slightly warped so the tip stuck out a little in the back, by the hinge for the lid. Since this area of the part is what necessitated the second replacement by getting caught by the drum and rolling over, I did not want to leave it that way.

Fortunately for this, the material they use becomes pliant at a relatively low temperature. I held that section over a hot electric stove burner for a couple minutes (not too close and carefully) and was able to bend the tip so it didn't stick out. It didn't take much. Works fine now.

The part is easy to replace. Remove the drum. Remove two screws in the middle of the metal protective cover below where the drum goes. Carefully (so as not to bend the metal) slide a blade between the metal and the plastic housing in the front and gently pop the metal away from the plastic tab holding the metal in place. Slide the blade over to the other tab and do the same if it is still stuck. Make sure you don't cut the plastic. The metal pops out and it is then easy to replace this left piece.

The question is why did they use this low temperature material. Unless it is to provide some safety to help keep things from overheating then it seems like a poor choice, maybe a design flaw.
