Good afternoon, I have had my egg for about 2 months and just noticed the top may be out of alignment a bit, is this anything to worry about and how could I fix this?
Thank you.

    Question, have you done the dollar bill test? If you haven't or possibly don't know what that is ... pull a dollar bill out from your wallet. Put it in between where the top dome and bottom meet.

    Do this all the way around the egg. The dollar should be nice and snug. If it pulls out easily, then your suspicions are confirmed. Dome alignment time.

    By the way, my dome looks just like yours, but when I did the test, it's very snug. I just don't worry anymore.
