Is there a way to clean the lid? I can not figure out how to take it apart for cleaning. It does not appear to be possible.

Soak the lid in mild dish detergent and very hot water in the "open" position. A soft bristled flexible head toothbrush is useful. After soaking and brushing, while underwater, flip the open/close knob several time then rinse for about 10 minutes under warm water again flipping the open close knob back and forth.

I also believe the removable lid is uni-construction. We open the lid (green switch) and just rinse with hot water. I suppose you could try the dishwasher, but we have not yet risked that option.

I've never taken the lid totally apart. I simply put it into very hot, soapy water, swish it around and use a dish cloth on all the parts that are accessible. Seems to work just fine. We love the mug. Keeps liquids hot for a very long time.

The lid does not come apart. Soak in the open position and rinse well with hot water. The only issue I have is after I wash the lid, water drips out from the bottom of the handle. Otherwise, I love the mug.

I have never taken the lid apart other than unscrewing it from the base. I wash it and rinse it well with the lid in the open position and than in the closed position. I am still enjoying using this product.

You can unscrew the two part lid, but you can't separate the two parts -- nor do you need to. The lid with the top part of the straw fits nicely in dishwasher, or can be washed easily by hand.

The inside of the lid is hard to clean. So, I put mine in the dishwasher. Eliminated the problem. Hubby loves the cup.

Sometimes you have to take the lid off and pull the pieces apart... it is made to do this when you wash it... then click it all back together and it will work.

I have the old model, but there are screws on the top that you can take out to get to the inside of the lid for thorough cleaning. Hope that helps!

I haven't tried taking it apart, because it doesn't look like it should. I soak the top in soapy water to get the coffee gunk out. I also take the vinegar water mixture from cleaning the coffee maker, pour it into the container while it is still hot, and run it through the spout.

Can't help you friend. The instruction that came with mine , stated the lid is to remain open during operation. Sorry.

The water bottle itself unscrews to fill with the water; if you twist you can take the water bottle and lid off at once. This leaves the metal reservoir and bottom tray . Then pop the reservoir out of the bottom and clean. You can either put it in the dishwasher or just scrub in the sink. Put back together the way you took it apart. I've had mine for two years and I clean it every time I fill with fresh water.

Sometimes I just pull the lid off...it works!After using it, don't put the lid on all the way...just rest it tilted on the jar so it doesn't get sick or you can just leave it uncovered in your cabinet!

Press down on the Release button and then pull off. It is a bit rough at 1st but you will get it. Also, it helps if you hold opposite diagonal corners to pull off the lid.

I take it apart and use a straw brush... I also have replacement straws and replace them periodically.

Just the lid can go in the dishwasher. Use warm soapy water and shake it up with the lid on then rinse it out.

you don't want to rinse it out inside, use a pail or something, I cleaned up outside, it takes alot of water to clean properly. It needs to be disassembled and cleaned properly before putting away

Don't take i apart to clean it, just put hot water & soap in a pan/cup and blend it for a few seconds then rinse and dry (unplug to dry!!).

The only thing I can think of is perhaps you left the lid on. Take the plastic lid off. I have used this product with excellent results.
