In another thread about this, I expressed concern that there may be hairline cracks which we are not seeing and which eventually will become bigger - after it's too late for replacement - and I wondered about a recall. Now that so many problems have surfaced, maybe we should make a concerted effort to get HL to recall this piece. In that same post I expressed concern that HL has not notified all the attendees who purchased this piece. The letter they promised has not been forthcoming. I agree that purchasers who are not forums members may have no idea that there is a problem for which they should be looking. I'm sure a lot of folks did like Ron and others - they put their extras away without checking them extensively or not at all.
