I done fucked up. I know some of my drink cups say handwash only, but I thought that was due to their vacuum chambers.

I assumed (wrongly) that these two bottles would be ok. They are clearly not made from whatever Nalgene is made from.

Meanwhile, I have some cheap vacuum wall plastic tumblers from Walmart, going on 15 years now, that I’ve always tossed in the dishwasher.

Also, I’m getting strong deja vu from my shrinky dink bottles. Have I done this before? Or seen a post on here if the same? I can’t recall.

Edit: hello adhd brain, I forgot to provide details. Red 1L Nalgene for scale. The two bottles beside it used to be the same size before yesterday. ☹️

    This applies to metal ones too. While they won’t shrink, they can be damaged.

    I put one of my metal water bottles in and it scraped up the sides quite a bit. Definitely was only meant for hand washing. Didn’t destroy it, but kind of ruined the nice finish it had.

      My yetis and simply modern bottles are like this.

      And my Mana’s, too.

      Don’t care. Don’t want to hand wash.

      That could be more your detergent than the machine. If you use Dawn Platinum, that stuff removed the screen print ink off my pub glasses. That’s how they can say you don’t have to prerinse with it. Because it’s just dissolving everything indiscriminately. It sure got the dishes squeaky clean, I’ll give it that.

      I’ve switched back to basic Palmolive detergent.

        That’s a good point! Ever since that happened, I’ve made sure to read on the bottle/label and it’ll tell you whether they say it’s okay to dishwash or not.

        Though I feel most secure hand washing. Ironic as I just washed mine today lol.
