Thanks Garnet, they have enclosed some cleaner with the machine which they tell you to use once a week, but I have only used it about five times. I have cleaned it now with vinegar which I sprayed on and used a melamine pad to clean it off. I then rinsed it three times with tap water and let it dry. I did mop up the odd wet bit with a clean paper towel though. I had always understood that the distiller left all the crap inside it though, and the steam was then pure, which is supposed to be the idea (I thought) thanks for advice. dee
