My Joule detached near where the cord enters the body. I tried to Krazy glue it back together, but it didn’t stay. Any recommendations for reattaching it?

I would try epoxy

Go for an industrial strength 2 part epoxy. Most other adhesives will fail due to temperature.

Mine did that a few years ago, I just kept it like that. Works fine.

I did the epoxy thing, the liquid nails commercial adhesive thing, and the silicone Sealant thing. None of them lasted More than one cook. Finally, I just left it hanging and it’s worked fine for 2 years. Probably overdue for an updated version soon (mine is a Chef Steps Preorder gen 1) but it still works like a champ.

Most super glues don’t bond with plastic. Try loctite.

If you epoxy it, make sure you give both surfaces a light sand – epoxy doesn’t stay attached to smooth surfaces very well.
