Just putting my mini together.
I purchased the nest also and it rocks in the holder. Is this normal or should I contact my dealer? Also I did not get a manual. Is there one for the mini?
Thanks,
Sharon

    I've had my Mini several years now and it does wobble a little in the nest/cradle. If you move it around, twisting it, you may reduce or eliminate the wobble. Also made a small shim form a shingle that helped a lot too.

    It's more irritating than important go cook something you'll forget all about it.

    Not sure, but the registration card for BGE's is in the manual . . . You might need it for any warranty claims

    Mine did that also, think I just wiggled it a bit and with Caution, pushed it down but not hard.

    Don't want to break it. :(

    Good Luck,

    I didn't get a warranty card or book or CD with my mini; called mothership and they sent me a warranty card

    The registration card for BGE's is in the manual. Ask me how I can tell????

    Congratulations!! Do they not have after parties in Plano? Come to Forida in March and we will show you an after party at a great location on the Atlantic ocean. If you don't believe me just ask FlaPoolMan.

    Thanks Jon, I'll be looking forward to it.
    Thanks everyone else with your suggestions. Called the dealer and he's sending me my manual with the warranty card.
    Got it sitting on the legs for now and later will try wiggling it around inside the nest to see if I can get a better seating.
