DW100 Series Ninja Thirsti™ Travel Bottle FAQs

Would the 18oz/24oz size fit in a standard car cup holder?

The bottles are car cupholder compatible. In order to know for sure, it is best to measure your cupholder. The 18oz bottle base diameter is 2.95 inches and the 24oz diameter is 3.15 inches.

Does the rubber gasket (o-ring) on the lid need to be taken off for cleaning? if so, does it slip into place easily?

Yes, the gaskets are removable for cleaning. There are tabs on them that make them easy to remove and reinstall. Make sure when you install them, the tabs are sitting flush in the bottle. If the tabs are stuck up perpendicular to the bottle, they have been inserted incorrectly. 

Can you drink with out removing the lid?

You do not need to take the whole lid off to drink. The bottle is designed to drink out of the smaller spout underneath the cap. This design helps to prevent the loss of CO2.

Is it easy to clean?

Wash before initial use. After each use, wash all parts in warm, soapy water. Use only mild dish soap to clean—no bleach. For thorough cleaning, remove gaskets from the cap; clean and dry before reinstalling. Dry the bottle completely before storing it, and store it with the cap removed. Do not use abrasive cleaners; they may dull the super-polished finish which may impact your carbonation retention.

Is it dishwasher safe?

The product is dishwasher safe, however hand-washing is recommended to maintain the best finish on your bottle.

Do you HAVE TO to fill the bottles up to the line for good carbonation?

There is no fill line inside the bottle but for best carbonation performance, please fill the bottle all the way to the top of the rated oz (24oz or 18oz). Headspace is a major contributor to carbonation loss, therefore the less liquid you have in the bottle, the quicker it will go flat.
