• Is the Owala bottle dishwasher safe?

  The lid is top-rack dishwasher safe, but hand washing the stainless steel cup is recommended to preserve its finish and insulation properties.

• Can I put hot liquids in my Owala FreeSip bottle?

  No, the FreeSip bottle is not designed for hot, carbonated, or perishable liquids, as pressure buildup can cause leaks or injury.

• How do I clean the straw inside the lid?

  Use a straw brush to thoroughly clean the straw and the fluid passage through the lid. The straw and silicone vent seal can often be removed for cleaning.

• Why is my bottle leaking?

  Leaks can occur if the gasket is missing or improper pressure builds up from altitude changes or heat. Ensure seals are in place and open the lid briefly to release pressure.

• Does the Owala bottle fit in cup holders?

  The fit depends on the size. Typically, the 24oz FreeSip fits most standard cup holders, while larger sizes like the 32oz or 40oz may not fit standard car cup holders.
