Do you put it in the dishwasher with the sleeve on? If not, how do you take it off?

Their website says this "bottle and sleeve are dishwasher safe". I always wash mine by hand so I can't say by experience how well it does in the dishwasher. I have never taken the sleeve off as it doesn't seem too easy to do so, but if you pulled enough it would come off.

The sleeve comes on and off easily with a small dab of dishwasher soap. And yes the bottle can go into the dishwasher just fine. I hand wash the lid.

The sleeve comes off by simply adding very warm water to the bottle to soften the sleeve and then rolling the sleeve off the bottle. Reverse is the same. If necessary, do this under warm running water or in a sink of warm water.WARNING: Others have noted to use soap. Do this at your own risk! The bottles are extremely slippery with soap on them and it is very easy to drop. Have replaced a bottle because of this. If you do use soap, hang on to the ring and do not let go of it. Would also be good to do in the sink as well.

Yes, you put it in with the sleeve on. The sleeve isn't meant to be removable.

The sleeve IS removable for cleaning, although I wouldn't recommend doing it too often. The sleeve can be rolled down onto itself on the outside of the bottle. If the bottom is primed with hot water the increased elasticity helps. A drop of soap helps with the slipping off of the sleeve once you get past the widest part.

I use this bottle daily. I bought a bottle brush and clean it regularly with dish soap and water. Also, the rubber sleeve will slide off/on with soapy water. If there's a smell, it may be coming from the sleeve. Soak the cap in warm, soapy water and rinse with cold. If it continues to have a smell, contact the manufacturer.

I love mine I just use a damp clean dishcloth and whipe it off after every use. Just a damp cloth not to wet. Hope this helps you.

I've had mine on for 6+ weeks without a problem. I hand wash and put in the dishwasher.

I tend to wash it by hand just to be on the safe side. Haven't tried it in the dishwasher

Margaret, you can also put it in the dishwasher. Works just fine. ...Deb at HC Essentials

I don't put it in the dishwasher - I wash it with soap and water in the sink. This seems to work very well.

Have had mine for over a year, hand washed and dish washer both. Take the rubber handle off to wash occasionally and take it off to put in the oven.

I undo the handle and put it in the top shelf of the dishwasher...Works great.. ;)

It can be removed but it's incredibly difficult to do so and you may tear the sleeve. It's not designed to come off - at least with any ease.

I put it in the dishwasher. It's really high quality and does not scratch. Fares well in the oven as well.

It only takes about two minutes to wash when its taken apart, so I have never put it in the dishwasher. Hope you find your answer.

I just rinse mine off - don't want to risk white paint coming off thru an entire wash cycle in the dishwasher. It's just cheap plastic.

I washed mine by hand. Probably you can place it in the dishwasher where it will be steemed.

I just put it in the dishwasher or rinse it off. I don't think it comes apart.

I haven't had that happen. The sleeve is removable so it can be removed and washed separately. Also, the bottle with sleeve can go in the dishwasher. I LOVE this bottle.

I put all of it in the dishwasher. The only issue I've run into is that you get a film in the end of the nipple so I use my pinkie to rub it off.
