How easy is it to clean the inside and the spigot?

The top access is large giving easy access to clean the inside. The spigot does not come apart so the only way to clean it is to run hot water through it.

I just use a bottle brush to clean the inside. I got one the size that goes in there easily. Otherwise, I just rinse it with regular soap and water.

Cleaning is easy. Mouth piece is wide so you can easily clean the spout. Baby bottle sponge brush works great!Will it get moldy? I don't know. I haven't experienced it yet since I use it on a daily basis.

It is very easy. As it has a non-sticking surface, it can be cleaned with a soft damp cloth.

Yes, very easy to clean. The lid stays attached. it has a lever that lifts the lid. The lid stays open to put your hand inside to wash the inside out. Because it is glass cleaning is very easy.

All the parts are pretty simple, so there are not many difficult crevices to get into and try to clean. That was one reason I chose this model and the stainless is way easier than the plastic.

Very easy. There aren't any nooks or crannies where things can get lodged and missed. Probably the easiest way is to immerse it in some soapy water, and turn it on for a few seconds, then run it under clean water under the tap.

You don't as far as I know. There is a screen so nothing bigger then 1-2cm gets inside. If you want to flush it out you can place your hose connected to your spigot over the top connector and run water through it while it is not plugged in.

Very easy to clean. The inside rinses clean and the outside just needs a damp cloth to wipe over.

So far, it is very easy. The instructions say that hot water and soap are all you need. I know it is not dishwasher safe, so I have been running water in the pot, a splash of soap, rinse. I washed it when I bought it and after every 2-3 uses; if I boil water and use the entire pot, I leave the lid up and let it air dry and dont bother washing it. We have hard water, so in glassware, I have to keep an eye out for hardwater rings - that is why I clean it every couple of uses and not every single use. Hope this helps!!! :-)

I think it's glass. I was worried about the plastic (metal-looking) spigot, since some people had complained of leakage, but that's NOT a problem. You reach in and unscrew and remove the spigot entirely and you can wash the glass part in the dishwasher, gently wash the spigot by hand and reinstall. The inside nut governs tightness---and leaks.

About once a week soak the inside with water and some bleach. Does not take much bleach to clean. Then rinse with water several times before putting in more water to drink.

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

I just run mine under the faucet for a few minutes whenever i switch to a new bottle. With the internal bearings seems like the best way to clean it out by flipping it around and letting water in and out. I have used it for about 4 bottles of liquor (rum) and it still works like a charm.

Fairly Easy. The inside pad that covers the heating element completely comes off and can be put in the washing machine. The outside can easily be sponged clean.
