    How does it reduce dishes? Water bottles are one of the more annoying things to wash, in my experience, because my hands aren’t small enough to fit anymore.

    Edit: Yes, I have a bottle brush. It’s just that it’s a bit of a hassle to soap it from dry and then have to dry it somewhere before storing it again. I wash everything else with a rough sponge normally.

      Get a metal one and put it in the dishwasher. Or get a bottle brush.

      Also, occasionally filling it with white vinegar and letting it sit overnight can help clean deposits.

      ETA: In general putting plastic in the dishwasher is not advised.

      I see you’ve never had a partner with ADHD! Going around collecting all the half-drank water glasses in our household used to be a full-time job.

        I have not! In fact, I’m usually the one carrying around water glasses because they’re less hassle to drink from and far easier to (visibly) clean than any other vessel is. I try to limit myself to two or three in the house though…

          Unfortunately we’re both the problem, so there would just be glasses EVERYWHERE. Carrying one bottle around just made more sense

        It’s a pain to take a tool out (and wait for it to dry) just for one or two bottles.

          You’re not serious. 😬

          It’s a brush. Shake it vigorously for 10-20 seconds and it’s dry enough. FFS. I hope you’re not serious.
