You could use the tablets made for cleaning the hydration packs. You can get them at Walmart. Or just use a little bleach water.

I would say if you are a dainty person with small hands. As a large man, I cannot.

If you had a small hand. It is the size of a standard nalgeen bottle. I only ever put clean, filtered or boiled water in it, so I can't speak about cleaning it. I did put bleach drops in for a few days when I return from each trip to sterilize but my hand is to big for the average nalgeen

It's super easy to clean. I just throw it in the dishwasher with the plastic top on the top rack. If you are washing by hand the only tricky part would be the mouthpiece, but you can fit a finger in there. The main body is probably slightly too small for a hand, but you can just fill with sudsy water and rinse.

Yes. Just use a toothbrush and rubbing alcohol would be fine. I forget what the manual says.

There are not any instructions, that come with it, for cleaning.I would contact zensufu.com, and ask them!Personally, I handwashing worked fine.

I've never tried it, but most of the alcohol based hand sanitizers I've used are way too thick for this machine. You should check with the manufacturer.

Not really no. You can finger pump it with thumb but generally siphon requires some mouth work. Hope that helps.

A small hand could, but it is a tight opening. I usually just wash it in the dishwasher.

If you want to be sticking your hands in as little as possible, I'd cover it with paper. But to clean it I use hot 50/50 vinegar water solution, either poured directly on grate and then scrubbed off with a sponge, or a sponge dipped in pure vinegar.(but you have to stick your hand, a hot cup and then a sponge in there but to me its the quickest way.) If you use a bleach solution be sure to dilute it heavy with water (like 1/2 a tbl spoon for a 26oz, &remove the food &water first).

You can get your hand inside.However , it is a little bit hard to get it cleanYou can use a small scrub brush.Overall, i like the unit .For some reason, I am always getting water somewhere!!!

I use a bottle brush to clean mine but it is big enough to put hand in. It's easily accesable to me.

Easiest thing to do. Just take some liquid soap on a soft cloth, rub n rinse with your hands. Voila !!

Yes it is very easy to clean. Just use antibacterial soup, rub the MITT together, rinse and hang yo dry. I got mine as a gift and ended up purchasing more for myself and gifts,

You don't have to use a brush, though it would help. Gloves are a must otherwise your hands will be all stained

I only hand wash to preserve edge. Full tang / handle makes clean-up quicker by hand than mechanical.

I would not recommend using the dishwasher but it wouldn't hurt it. It just might not get all the crevices clean. Let me know if it works better than hand washing.

Pop filter, yes. You could always just put your hand in front of your mouth. Poop filter, that's up to you. Depends on how messy you get.

Should be okay. You just twist the wand to the right or left and clean with a sweeping motion.
