I read the bottle is not dishwasher safe. Is that true?

I don't put them in the dishwasher (I have the all plastic ones). I usually just rinse them but I do every now and then wash them using a bottle brush and lukewarm water. I think if the water temp is too hot it can breakdown the plastic.

The ones with metal bases are, but not the all-plastic ones. Bottles (any) wash poorly in a dishwasher, though, so just a rinse is all that's needed.

Most of these answers are not quite true. It is true that MOST sodastream bottles are not dishwasher safe. But they do make a dishwasher safe version. Item #1041130010 at the sodastream.com site. I've seen it here on Amazon as well but at this time (2014-02-16), the amazon price is more than 50% higher than buying direct (didn't checking shipping charges). I'd also note that these are not stainless bottles. They are the normal bottle with a stainless trim piece instead of the colored trim piece. The cap is some stainless cover over the cap. Mine slip is how I can tell. The regular plastic caps do not slip. I've also had the stainless trim fall off the bottle. All in all I prefer the non-stainless version especially as the stainless is about double the cost.

Yes -- just as the directions on the bottle say.Put mine in empty dishwasher next to the silverware caddy, only caution:do not push the bottle through the rack as it could keep the dishwasherarm from spinning.

Yes, Although I tend to wash mine mostly by hand, the bottle and tops have been in the dishwasher several times (once a week).

It is dishwasher safe. The bottle part doesn't fit in the top shelf of my dishwasher, so I put it on the bottom. I put the lid on the top shelf. I've had this bottle for over a year and have had no problems.

My understanding is that it is not dishwasher safe. We wash ours by hand and only takes a minute.

This is a plastic bottle with a plastic lid. It is not dishwasher safe. It can be washed with hot soapy water and pressing the pump several times to create pressre, then spraying the soapy water. Rinse using the same method.

No. None of the older model plastic bottles can go in the dishwasher. They have a warning on the bottle specifically saying not to put them in a dishwasher.

I wash it all the time...nothing happens to the bottle...But I think the lid is not dishwasher safe at all. this is an awesome bottle if only the lid fits tighter and water doesn't leak if the bottle is not upright. Otherwise the stainless steel bottle is THE BEST :)

The top and straw are dishwasher safe but the actual metal thermos is not. I think it's just not dishwasher safe because of the paint (mine had a cute cherry blossom design) but I've put in the dishwasher a couple times and it's been fine (top shelf of the dishwasher). Another point about this water bottle though - you have to screw the lid on really tight to avoid leaks. Like REALLY tight - sort of annoying.

Most definitely! I have drank from it and put it through the dishwasher with no problems.

I haven't had that happen. The sleeve is removable so it can be removed and washed separately. Also, the bottle with sleeve can go in the dishwasher. I LOVE this bottle.

I put Kuhn rikon bottles in the top rack of a dishwasher. I'm not sure about this last batch, nothing was on the box if they are dishwasher safe.

Yes it is dishwasher safe. But I will say mine only makes it to the dishwasher once in awhile. We use ours regularly so I end up hand washing it to use again immediately.

Sorry, don't have a dishwasher; dont see why dishwasher would be necessary as i just wipe off bottles or run under warm water if necessary; excellent bottles

No it doesn't say dishwasher safe. I do clean my that way without incident ......I would like to add this is the best grater I have ever owned and even if I had to wash it by hand I would always have this brand.
