Perlier 3L Problems…Can you help?

I just received the Huge shower cream from last week's TS day. Unbelievable... I can't get the top off of it!  Instructions say it just pulls off- mine won't budge and I'm not a weakling (lol)!  Anyone experience this and have advice? Otherwise gotta calling customer service, which will likely be fruitless... Praying not another return- Thank you in advance!

@Skyegirl21  I do not know if this will help at all, but whenever a top or lid (no matter how small or large or what kind) is hard to get off, I always tap the sides with the end of a butter knife. That usually releases the hold!

Run the cap area under HOT water  & use a rubber gripper to twist the cap off & on.

If no luck......use a pair of pliers...so u break it but you'll get the product.

Hi  @Skyegirl21    Woman Happy

 

I just received that 3L of my uber fave Perlier Dbl Latte & it took a while to figure it out, so I understand, regardless of that included diagram of how to open it up for use.

 

I found that Instruction Sheet confusing.  So I just piddled around trying to get it to work myself.

 

There's a high Collar around the neck of the plunger, so high, that the plunger seems to disappear into this collar.

.  I thought the Collar was needed for  the plunger use.  NOPE.   But,    it looked like so much of a part of this  Perlier "Jug."

 

I finally set aside that plunger,just in case.  Then, had no problem.  

 

Maybe, that collar was protecting the plunger head, is the only thing I could figure.

 

With that collar on, it was too high to allow the plunger to go full down & "plunge."

 

Hope this helps.

 

I know intellectually, it was 3L, but when it arrived..  HOLY SMOKES.  That is a MASSIVE Bottle.  I can't imagine returning it, esp if it's a scent you love.

 

Good luck!! Woman Happy

@JoyFilled Warrior , @fthunt , @Harpa ,thanks all, for the suggestions-  I retried and I can't get the top off. Called CS and they are waiving the return ship fee. I'm returning it. My luck it breaks all over the place (so huge, would be a nightmare)! 🤣 Appreciate you all-  💝 Have nice weekend!

@Skyegirl21  Sorry that gave you so much trouble!

 

Months ago, I couldn't get a Ready To Wear lip palette open no matter what I did. I was so disappointed and had to return that.

 

I like sealed and all, but one shouldn't have to blast something open with dynamite!
