Can you sterilize this? What is the number (generally within a triangle) written at the bottom?

I don't think it said either way on the packaging. I normally just wash it right away and sterilize only the spout, though my husband has used the bottle portion in the sterilizer several times and it seems to keep its shape and still fit the cap as well.

I've heard that people keep it in the fridge. You can also get a few sets of the tubes and cups so you have some spares. I would not sterilize but just wash after use and sterilize every couple days. I had no issues.

Unfortunately it is stenciled on. You could probably scrape it off w/ a razor. Let me know how it works.

i would sterilize them. i boiled water and then i let the instruments sit in the water for a minute. i also dipped each of them in rubbing alcohol. this is not an official recommendation, i am not a professional, but this is what i did.

I have never done that, but I do sterilize mine in my dishwasher so I'm sure it might work fine.

i have two of these extremes. One i have used for 6 years. They are very rugged. I use river water with chlorine to sterilize. As long as there is no rust, I'm sure its OK. I wonder if it was opened with humid summer air and then closed up. i usually let them dry out in hot sun before storing.

While I Haven't tried it, it looks like it can be unscrewed from the bottom. The tube would then be removable for cleaning.

Charlotte these are great!!! You can put them out and keep reusing it until gone. I usually just snip it with scissors. Hope this helped ;)

I used a knife blade and scraped it almost perpendicular across the label. Goof off or other products didn't work very well for me. Any flat metal edge tool scraped down it will remove it faster. A paint scraper or the side of the edge of a screwdriver would work, I used my pocket knife. I cleaned the remaining glue off with acetone. The label will soak off inside the waterheater if you don't remove it. It would probably remain at the bottom of the heater until you drained/flushed the heater but it might make it into the water lines and find it's way to an aerator screen at a faucet and plug it up requiring removal to clean it off.

That triangle is a recycle symbol, the other numbers on the bottom are manufacturing numberslike the 0400, I grow plants, so not too concerned about numbers.

Nowhere on the plastic does it mention dishwasher info. The spaces for the knife to move between all the plastic spacers is so narrow that if they warp at all from the dishwasher heat the knife would no longer move freely for slicing. Personally I wouldn't risk it, especially as you are just dealing with dry bread crumbs left on the unit and a hot soap and water rinse ought to do for any sterilization needed.

Yes! That's what I do to sterilize it! To take it apart you just push the tube up through the cup and it comes right off! Hope this helps! :)

This is a plastic irrigator, so the best way to sterilize on the fly is with rubbing alcohol and then rinse it with hot water.

They are sterilized, I emailed to find out but I'm not sure how they do it.

No that would be a autoclave and bag. This is good for losing up grime grit etc and clean and neutralize the Bactria but the next step is a autoclave and 15min on no more then 15lbs to sterilize item. Maybe a good book would help it did for more 27 years ago you need to know you hot and warm and cold zones etc ...depend makes awesome bags and cleaing agents good for machine. And other person it does work still with lid open. Hope this helps you and always happy to meet another one of us in this world but I tattoo goes hand in hand I guess.

I have put it in my dishwasher a few times and it has held up. I haven't put it in a sterilizer though. I would assume yes.
