Dishwashers are super convenient. All dirty items disappear in it and emerge cabinet-dry a few hours later. They're also sustainable, as they save a lot of water compared to washing by hand. However, you should clean your FLSK products by hand, except for the stainless - all natural series.
FLSK products: Better to clean by hand
While the insulation of our FLSK products isn't damaged in the dishwasher, it's better to clean them with a dish brush in the sink. The colored coating and lid need gentle treatment.
Our stainless - all natural series comes without coating, so you can easily clean it in the dishwasher.
For everyday cleaning, hot water, a bit of dish soap, and a soft sponge are sufficient. Simply rinse the bottle and lid, wipe with the sponge, and let air dry.
What happens if I put the FLSK drinking bottle and FLSK coffee mug in the dishwasher?
Regardless of the program chosen, the dishwasher has intense heat over an extended period. Together with aggressive detergents and high water pressure, this can discolor the coating or even cause it to peel off, depending on the model.
The stainless steel cap and BPA-free plastic plug are bonded with a special, non-toxic adhesive. The prolonged heat in the dishwasher can cause this bond to loosen, making the lid "spin," which may make it difficult to open the FLSK drinking bottle.
Here are more tips on how to thoroughly clean the FLSK drinking bottle, muki snack pot, and FLSK coffee mug.

Special tips for the FLSK drinking bottle made of stainless steel: In the dishwasher, drinking bottles with narrow openings don't get fully clean inside. It's better to use cleaning pearls, denture cleaning tabs, or special bottle brushes. To learn more about specialized cleaning, click here. We also recommend removing the sealing ring occasionally and cleaning it separately, as beverage residues can accumulate underneath and lead to bacteria growth and unpleasant odors. Feel free to boil the ring from time to time. Made of silicone, it can handle it without any issues. Make sure to place the completely dry ring correctly on the lid again.

Special tips for the muki snack pot: Couldn't rinse your muki after breakfast or a snack? No problem. Soak the pot in warm water for a while to loosen the dried food. As with the FLSK drinking bottle, we recommend regularly removing and cleaning the sealing rings of the two containers separately. This prevents food from accumulating and causing bacteria growth or unpleasant odors. All our product's sealing rings are made of silicone, so feel free to boil them to eliminate bacteria. Make sure the seals are placed correctly so the muki remains leakproof.

Special tips for the FLSK coffee mug: Coffee and black tea tend to stain, but the smooth stainless steel surface of the FLSK coffee mug handles it well. Simply rinse your FLSK coffee mug with warm water, some dish soap, and a soft sponge each evening, and it's ready for the next use. Also, regularly remove and clean the two silicone parts, especially the one that seals the mouthpiece. Since bacteria can form in the mouth and you drink directly from the FLSK coffee mug, it's a good idea to boil these parts occasionally. You don't need abrasive or aggressive cleaners for our products. Please refrain from using them to preserve the surface. The FLSK drinking bottle and FLSK coffee mug prefer gentle treatment, so you can enjoy the products for a long time.
