‘Noooooo ours broke from doing this. The water moisture damaged the elements in mine. Almost set fire’ commented one person. 

‘Definitely need to read your manual first, might not work with all brands’ Ada clarified in a reply. 

‘Bit of a waste of electricity. I put boiling hot water in mine, detergent and let it soak for 30 mins and then wash it’ wrote someone else. 

‘Put it in the dishwasher after every use, is that a hack? I also sometimes use foil so no cleaning required!’ another said.

‘Doesn’t work’ complained one person while another added, ‘Soaking it in hot water and normal detergent would do the same’.

‘Dish washer. Or just plain dish soap with warm water, soak for five and dry. Done!’ said someone else. 

‘I was doing this and the wire mesh ended up coming off. It started to peel away and was always trapped in the food which I threw out more times than I would like to have. Now I’ve had that part replaced (I have this brand also) I wash up in soapy water when I’m finished’ one more wrote. 

Others loved the hack, with someone writing, ‘Amazing tip!! Thanks so much for sharing!! I’ll definitely be trying this one’.
