My Easy Accent decorator is spewing out the seams! :eek: I have had it for a few years & never used. So when I signed up to be a consultant, I wanted to learn how to use. Well I put some cool whip in it, put on a tip and squeezed, and it also was squeezing out thread between the tip holder & barrel. Has this product improved over the past couple years where there is threads to hold on the tip? Mine doesn't "thread" on, it just turns & clicks.
 
On the replacement parts list, it shows a date on the Easy Accent Decorator as being for ones sold AFTER 1/2/02....I am wondering if you purchased your decorator before this date? And also, if it was re-designed- possibly due to problems like you are experiencing? Just some thoughts...

:mad:Has anyone else had this problem? Is there a solution? I don't want to have to buy a new one if there is a way to fix it. I am going to call HO on Monday if not. TIAI have had that problem a few times. I just take the tip off and clean it real good. Then I run hot water through it and put it back together. I have never had a problem with it after that. I hope this helps.Have something to add?
