I just sent a very clear message about the pan in my air fryer being impossible to clean. The fryer is less than i year old and the response is that I shuld sign up for a protection olan. I DO NOT want to sign up for a protection plan! I want to know what can be done to clean the pan I have been buying cuisnart appliances for over 40 years and I am very dissatisfied with the response that I received. Please contact me as to what can be done. I know others, that i recommended this product to and some have told me they have the same problem.
