To clean a Memobottle: use warm water, a splash of dish soap or vinegar in a 1:4 ratio, shake, let it sit briefly, then rinse. This applies to both the clear Tritan models and the stainless steel bottles. One thing you shouldn\u2019t do is put it in the dishwasher. Memobottle explicitly advises against this for all products, including lids and silicone sleeves. If you care for your flat bottle this way, it will last a long time: clear, odor-free, and leak-proof. Here\u2019s how to care for it on a daily basis, what helps prevent odors and discoloration, and how the different Memobottle models<\/a> differ in terms of care. <\/p>\n\n

Why the Memobottle Doesn’t Belong in the Dishwasher<\/h2>\n\n

Memobottle puts it bluntly: None of the brand\u2019s products are dishwasher-safe. The manufacturer\u2019s reasoning is understandable. Dishwashers use harsh detergents and high temperatures that damage the plastic and the coating, and they leave water spots that are nearly impossible to remove later. With the Tritan bottles, the transparency is compromised; with the stainless steel models, the satin powder coating is affected. The stainless steel lid of the Original bottles also bears a note on the manufacturer\u2019s website stating that it must not be placed in the dishwasher. <\/p>\n\n

The good news: Hand-washing takes less than two minutes. The opening on the stainless steel models measures 28 mm, so any bottle brush will fit through it. And because the bottle is flat, it dries faster on the drying rack than a round one, where water pools at the bottom. <\/p>\n\n

The Three-Step Daily Cleansing Routine<\/h2>\n\n

According to Memobottle, a mixture of warm water and dish soap is sufficient for everyday use. Alternatively, use one part household vinegar to four parts water. Pour the mixture in, put the lid on, shake vigorously, let it sit for a few minutes, then rinse it out. Done. <\/p>\n\n
