What kind of bottle brush do you use to clean this out with?

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.

I use a dish brush with a long handle, not a sponge. For the very small opening where you write I use a very small bottle brush I found at Target. My dishwasher stopped working some time ago and got a new one. I made sure it was one where the top rack could be lowered so that things like this fit too.

No, I have only used the brush to clean my glass drinking bottles. This brush is not very sturdy, I have found the "Quickie" brush to be better at cleaning all of the residue.

I use a combination of baking soda and water to clean the bottle. I just let them sit for a while and that usually does the trick. I hear vinegar works too.

The most I've ever done for mine is to make sure I rinse it thoroughly with hot water after each use, making sure that all of the cleanser that I used is rinsed out completely. After that, I squeeze it and hang it to dry. I also agree with the first poster that a mild soap or vinegar should work as well. Also, something to consider is that the bristles are supposed to be naturally antimicrobial according to the company. As a side note, I've also been wondering how often the brush should be replaced if anyone has any thoughts on that.

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

Any brush is fine. I use a blue Avent one that looks like an oversized tooth brush. I pull the whole thing apart each time (warm soapy water)

Before I bought a brush I used to fill it about half way with water and a little bit of dishwashing soap then close it and shake it up very vigorously. Then rinse it very well and done. I've used this technique quite successfully to clean out oil sample bottles with openings that even a brush wouldn't fit in. Just be sure to rinse it thoroughly, but the rinse on these bottles is much easier because of the wider opening.

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.

Yes, but I used the OXO Good Grips Bottle Brush on it so it is easy for me to clean. I don't know how easy it would be without it. Good luck.

Not really. I would fill 1/2 way with warm soapy water, push in a wash cloth and swish it around. You can always buy a bottle brush.

I haven't had to clean mine yet (using it for olive oil), but the top comes off and you could clean it with a bottle brush the same as any other necked bottle.

It's pretty easy, I use some soap and water and shake up the bottle and then a sponge for the mouth and cap. I also have one of those water bottle wand cleaner things (like a brush on a stick) so I can clean it better if I have anything besides water in it. I mainly use this bottle for water only, so it hasn't been a problem getting it clean.

Hi Scott. I have done both methods. For these Brushes, I would use a regular mild soap with water. Dont waist your money on certain cleansers, the brushes arent that good of a quality to do that. Just make sure after you clean the brushes pinch the tip of them and lay them on a flat surface or they will fuzz up and become useless.

Dishwasher safe! And if you don't have the luxury of a dishwasher I'd assume a baby bottle brush would work well!

I use a bottle brush or you can open the filter at top and use air spray it works well. I take it outside if I use the air spray.
