Do you put it in the dishwasher with the sleeve on? If not, how do you take it off?

Their website says this "bottle and sleeve are dishwasher safe". I always wash mine by hand so I can't say by experience how well it does in the dishwasher. I have never taken the sleeve off as it doesn't seem too easy to do so, but if you pulled enough it would come off.

The sleeve comes on and off easily with a small dab of dishwasher soap. And yes the bottle can go into the dishwasher just fine. I hand wash the lid.

The sleeve comes off by simply adding very warm water to the bottle to soften the sleeve and then rolling the sleeve off the bottle. Reverse is the same. If necessary, do this under warm running water or in a sink of warm water.WARNING: Others have noted to use soap. Do this at your own risk! The bottles are extremely slippery with soap on them and it is very easy to drop. Have replaced a bottle because of this. If you do use soap, hang on to the ring and do not let go of it. Would also be good to do in the sink as well.

Yes, you put it in with the sleeve on. The sleeve isn't meant to be removable.

The sleeve IS removable for cleaning, although I wouldn't recommend doing it too often. The sleeve can be rolled down onto itself on the outside of the bottle. If the bottom is primed with hot water the increased elasticity helps. A drop of soap helps with the slipping off of the sleeve once you get past the widest part.

I hand wash it. Be extra careful when using/washing as it is very sharp. I also store it in the protective plastic sleeve that it came with.

I wash it by hand with the rubber sleeve still on most of the time... bottle brush helps. I will take the sleeve off once a month to wash it even though I don't think it's completely necessary. When taking the sleeve off I pull off the bottom part first then pull the whole piece off over the opening. Getting the sleeve off is pretty difficult but doable. The rubber sleeve is really durable so sometimes I'll get a guy without manicured nails to handle it if needed....most of the times though I handle it fine.

No, it is intended to remain together. In fact, my original part warns not to use it if the sleeve has separated from the pusher. I unlock mine (sometimes) and toss it in the dishwasher (top rack). It always emerges clean.

I've always washed mine in the dishwasher. I only wash it when necessary though. Haven't had any issues so far. I have had it for about a year.

I just rinse it off. Everything comes off easily. I don't put it in the dishwasher because it said not to. Keep it at the lower temperatures like 5 to 7. Don't preheat the pan very long and don't use it on high.

I have been washing mine in the dish washer for about a year with no problem. Just unscrew the bottle at the middle, and put in the washer in the top rack. Have not lost one, though my sister in law did washing hers by hand. Have not had any changes in the bottle or top with weekly use and dishwasher cleaning.

Yes, I put it in the dishwasher. So far, only on the top rack. Comes out just fine.

I always hand wash, I believe it could go in the dishwasher though. It comes apart nicely and it does work great.

No, I just tip it up and scrape it w/a rubber scraper. I LOVE mine. Have used it since ordering it just a couple of months ago. So easy to take apart and it all goes in the dishwasher :) Hope this helps.

Just checked the sleeve mine came in and there is no mention of whether it is dishwasher safe or not.Because it is plastic I would say yes, it is, but on the top shelf with the blade pushed in all the way so it doesn't get dull.I hand wash mine and am very happy to. It cleans up easily.

I have not tried to wash it in the dishwasher, just rinse or wash it by hand.

I just rinse mine off - don't want to risk white paint coming off thru an entire wash cycle in the dishwasher. It's just cheap plastic.

I usually wash it by hand,never tried dishwasher， so you can have a try if you want ^_^

Yes, but it's not easy to get back on again. You can put it through the dishwasher with the sleeve on. The only reason I removed it was because I dropped the bottle and wanted to make sure it wasn't cracked. (It wasn't.)

It can be removed but it's incredibly difficult to do so and you may tear the sleeve. It's not designed to come off - at least with any ease.

I don't. I am not sure if it is dishwasher safe or not so I just hand wash mine.
