Can you remove the water dispensers to clean and sterilize them?

Yes and the booklet that comes with it gives details on how to clean everything.

I just got mine so I'm not sure but by the looks of things, yes, that should not be a problem.

I have not done this yet myself, but if you download the manual from http://store.primowater.com/doc_library/900138A_EnglishManual.pdf you will see a procedure for cleaning the cold reservoir and water lines on pages 9-10. They suggest doing this every three months, or whenever an off taste is noticed.

The manufacturers instruction booklet does have a cleaning /sterilizing procedure section

Eleanor,The flowers can be removed but I find that soaking the base unit in a mild Clorox/water solution works very well and removing them is not necessary. I use a soft toothbrush to get to any tight spots. As for being sturdy, they are as sturdy as possible for being small. I have not broken any yet.I hope this helps.Jim

Maybe, the nozzle and cup could go in a sterilizer. I just used hot water and antibacterial soap. You could wipe it with some rubbing alcohol.

They may be removed if so desired. However, they don't get dirty when the unit is in use.

Yes. The unit separates into 3 parts for cleaning. Often, a good rinse is all that's necessary. Disassembling and reassembling is very easy.

No. You would use one of these to clean whatever before you steam sterilize.

Hello, Thank you for your question. I do not believe these can be removed without breaking the item.

I would say no. I can only erase them using antibacterial, waterless hand sanitizer. Nothing else we've tried will erase them completely. They really are a very poor quality. The point collapsed almost immediately using very little pressure. I will not buy this brand again.

You'll have to rinse with soap and water first to remove any residue. Then put them in the sterilizer. Make sure to check the bottom of the sterilizer after each use as a cleaning may be necessary if excess residue collects at the bottom.

Yes, you can opt to remove the tube fully. Once you are done sterilizing the unit the tube just slides back in easily.

Yes, you can take them off and reuse them. We have done this several times.

Yes you can, when using the unit only put water in the water tank and do not use any formula to perform a water rinse.

At first, I couldn't get the water tank off - I had to fill it by putting the whole unit under the faucet. Then, my husband got it "unstuck," so yes, you can remove it. My problem with the unit is that I can't get enough pressure unless I put my hand in the water and keep the black plastic thing-a-ma-jig slightly raised on one side. Very annoying!

No. They're indeed pathetic. I haven't made use of mine since the first time because of the horrible taste of the water I "distilled." I read about a particular method of cleaning it that I have faith in, but I haven't the time to try yet. If you take a few minutes to research, even on Google, you will get some instruction. Apple cider vinegar was recommended for the initial cleaning. I believe running a cup or two through it as you would water. I hope this was somewhat helpful. Best of luck!
