Just wondering how everyone cleans the small valves on these bottles. I ordered the 2 in 1 Tommee Tippee brush set but these brushes are 2 large 2 fit

There is a small brush in the bottom of the tommee tippee brushes. It fits inside of the valves/nipples.

I use vinegar and at target you can get very small brushes in the baby bottle section to get those hard to get to spots or pipe cleaners.

I would say they are the perfect size for travel. They are not tiny, but they are also not huge. The longest brus from handle to bristle tip is only about 4 inches. They come in a handy pouch too while is great for travel. They are my everyday brushes and I think they are the perfect size.

The opening is larger than most water bottles, a bottle brush would work for scrubbing, I generally wash the mouth of the bottle and shake it partially full of soapy water. I don;t often put anything other than water in it tho.

theyre a little smaller if youre looking for a full sized brush. the brushes are good ive been washing them for a couple of times and it remains in good condition. however theyre the standard common sizes and theyre good if youre just practicing. if you compare them with mac brushes yes they are small.

I only use these for water so I wash the lid, the mouthpiece & outside with soap & warm water. I swish the inside with soapy water as well & rinse well. I suppose you could use a baby bottle brush.

Yes, I've used them with Avent wide mouth bottles. Though I have not tried with Tommee Tippee.

I gave up on this thing, after buying two of them. I now use a manual irrigator made by Neilmed. Two irrigators come with the packages of Sinus Rinse solution. So I do not use a bottle brush at all.

When I purchased my Contigo drink bottle I also bought the set of 3 contigo cleaning brushes & they do a fabulous job of cleaning the bottle, straw & lid. I highly recommend this to you too.

I also used a pipe cleaner (the kind with a few metal strands also works best), to stick in the folding plastic part (not the bite valve). As this gets gunked up also. If you take the long plastic straw off, you can actually get the pipe cleaner all the way through, and you can pull it back and forth. I love this bottle also, but it is something you need to keep up with the cleaning on.

I just use the munchkin bottle brush with the suction stand. Plus get the tiny brushes so you can clean in the straw!

No, sorry. These aren't as thin or small as they appear. I bought them because I wanted to clean the inside of some essential oil bottles and the smallest brush wouldn't fit.

I use the tiny brush from the Munchkin Deluxe Bottle Brush cleaning system. It's small enough to get in there & clean it!

it is about the size of a wide mouth quart mason jar. I have no problem cleaning it, a bottle brush goes in easily.

The clean bottle express is very good. I collect vases, so the soft pieces on the brush work well. Also, the cleaning material on the brush are soft, and fall down after it gets wet. I bought several brushes, this brush is one of my favorite. Gentle, works well.

I have used a bottle brush that came with a bottle set I received, but it was a narrow brush that fit these great. I haven't been able to find it sold separately anywhere, but this one looks pretty similar and seems like it would be small/narrow enough to get down in the bottle: Abstract Baby Bottle Brush with Sponge and Nipple Cleaner (Blue) (Abstract Baby Bottle Brush with Sponge and Nipple Cleaner). Overall, I actually found these bottles to be pretty easy to clean, so as long as the brush can reach the bottom, it shouldn't be too much of an issue. Hope this helps!

did not use the bottles as yet, but i have bought before and i have never had this problem, may be you can try pouring in some hot water and left for a minuit or two then wash the bottles.
