Dishwashers won’t clean these gaskets if they’re washed while installed. Oh, and those silicone straws can come out of the dishwasher nasty too.

From my experience, most canteens they sell are marked as not dishwasher safe.
Who relies on a dishwasher to clean inside a BOTTLE? Get a bottle brush and wash it by hand, it takes 60 seconds
Eh, if the bottle is just for water there’s enough spray and heat to kill and rinse it usually.
“Not Dishwasher Safe” == “We didn’t want to spend the money testing it and want to free ourselves from liability”
Sometimes it’s true, sometimes not
Same goes for “hand wash only”
A couple of things come to mind here:
I own a metal one which I assume was dishwasher safe but somehow water got trapped inside the ‘extra’ parts of it which could be unsanitary due to the water eventually stagnating.
Another is that the heat from the dishwasher can warp and silicone or plastic parts which will render them unusable eventually.
Not saying you’re wrong but this is what I consider from the warning they provide.
I just want to know if it’s just “not safe” or straight up dangerous. Why don’t they tell us that?
How would they know what sort o bacteria you cultivate in your abode?
