Why
The cup body is typically made of Tritan plastic or stainless steel, which is dishwasher safe, but the straw and lid contain silicone seals and valves that can degrade over time with high heat. Many manufacturers recommend hand washing to extend the life of the cup.
How do you wash Contigo straw cup?
Place the cup body on the top rack of the dishwasher, but hand wash the straw and lid with warm soapy water. Rinse thoroughly and air dry.
