The top does not come off; you'd have to use a long brush to clean the inside.

It doesn't come off, but I'm sure with the right tools you can take it off.

No. But, It opens wide to allow for easy cleaning. This should not be a problem. We have been using ours every day for over six months and it still looks like new inside and out. But, then again, we use RO water.

The top doesn't come off but it raises vertically 90 degrees, so it is easy to access the inside of pot for cleaning.

No it does not come off however the way it is designed you should be able to clean it well with the rubber top

It comes off easily. It will come off if you lift it by the top when full. It has worked well for us - except when I forget to not pick it up by the top when full!

Yes it does come apart easily for cleaning! I've taken it apart many times for cleaning and back together again with ease. As long as you get the 2 gaskets on right you are good to go with a clean leak proof top.

I have had this for a few months now, the top is easy to clean. You can just wipe it down. The inside I haven't really had to clean but it seems to be the same material. I would recommend this, it's nice and heavy and doesn't look cheap. I wish I would have gotten one sooner!

Yes, the top comes off easily. You can open the top or you can press down on a little part in the back hinge-area and take the entire lid off fairly easily.

Yes, it lifts off completely. The inside is for storage - lots of space. The lid has a padded insert that also lifts off. It's really handy.

The top presding cup on this model cannot be remove. However, it is easy to clean. I wipe/clean it a very wet cloth and dry with papertowel.

No, but it is super easy to clean. Simply wipe it out with a kitchen towel while it is still warm.

NO and it is surprisingly easy to clean considering the size of the mesh. I have had several months now and it is still getting better.

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.

Yes, it's very easy to clean. A little bit of soap & water will do the job.

Yes! It comes apart easily and goes into the dishwasher (we use top rack only though). We wash it by hand sometimes, too when we are in a hurry.
