Unfortunately, the container is not removable, however the lid can be taken off.

Yes, you can clean it with a gentle detergent and water. Make sure to dry it well when you are done.

You mean to rinse out or soak something? Yes, you could. But the lid is not a leak-proof seal.

Yes, you can leave the basket in until you are ready to clean it for the next use!

No, you cannot remove the blade from the container, although the base of the inside (by the blade) is fairly flat and not hard to clean. If I can't get mine clean, I rinse out what I can, fill it with water to cover the blades, put it back on the base, turn it on low and put a drop of soap in.

You can, but the pik is so hard to remove that I, with arthritis in my hands, can hardly remove it, so I leave it open and have a paper towel that I draped over the top of the reservoir wet and when it dries, it shapes to the top and dust/debris can't get in. I wish the pic came out easier - but we do what we have to do to make things work.

Yes, but that is not preferred method to clean it. I find it best to hand wash it

You don't have to as it comes in a plastic container and you can lather it in there. However, I take mine out and put it a bowl I've kept.

I have found that if I clean it out after I've used it, I have no problem getting it clean. When you take the top off, there is plenty of room to get your hand in there with a sponge. The only possible problematic area would be the spout. If you let it sit with gunk in it for a day or two, it takes a little more than a simple rinse, though rinsing it out with very hot water usually does the trick just fine. I am very satisfied with this separator. I think you will be too.

I am not sure about the first two questions...but yes, you can take the water container off to empty it completely. I wouldn't store it with water standing there anyway!

You could, but I would recommend taking it off completely for cleaning and storing. It's very easy.

You can unhook it and wash it. So, that said, you can probably take it to the laundromat.

You cannot take it apart to clean. It is a nightmare to clean and quite honestly it did not perform very well either. I do not recommend this product.

Well, you could wash it out by hand using dish soap or run it through the dishwasher.

Yes, you can pull off and clean it. this is very nice product that you would enjoy cooking fish with

It is very easy to empty the container. I just dump the container in a trash bag lined receptacle and that's it.

No you do not remove the oil container. There is a rubber tube at the bottom that the oil flows out of, into a strainer, then into a plastic container which lets you reuse your cleaned oil. It actually wipes pretty clean without much work. After removing the oil, I put Dawn into the frier, wipe, then run the soapy water out the same way I remove the oil. Clean up is very easy and barely messy at all
