    RE: replacement parts?

    College dorm use was super handy and son ate chicken nuggets frequently.

    Sadly, college dorm did not have a dishwasher and the unit came home dirty.

    Hand washing and then dishwasher took care of MOST of the baked on grease, but the four silicone pads are resisting my best efforts.

    Do the silicone pads need to be pristine for safe food preparation?

    Is there a replacement set for the silicone pads?
