Is this thermos easy to clean, specifically the twist cap?

Yes. If the inside walls get stained, use an effervescent denture cleaning tablet.

Easiest thing to do. Just take some liquid soap on a soft cloth, rub n rinse with your hands. Voila !!

After careful consideration of both items, this differs from the Thermos Nissan bottle in which how the lid is designed. This design has two tops, you unscrew the top lid, which also serves as a cup (the selling point for me), then you unscrew another cap to pour the beverage. Also, note that cleaning appears to be easier, then the TN bottle, which has a smaller opening. Although, this item has been promoted for beverage use, a week ago, I actually put a can of progress chicken soup in it, with no problems, and it was still warm 6 hours later. If you prefer the convenient access of one uniformed lid, then perhaps the TN bottle is good for you. Just consider the ease of cleaning the product as well. On a final note, I can voucher for the Thermos Nissan Stainless King 16-Ounce Compact Bottle, Midnight Blue because I own it and beverages stay hot/warm for hours and it's a breeze cleaning it. I hope this helps, if you have any other specific questions, I will be happy to answer any questions.

It is very easy to clean and all parts of the lid comes apart. I take mine apart weekly and there is never any stuff stuck to it.

it is fairly easy to clean - better than other graters we have had. I just use a bottle brush on the inside and have not had any problems.

I wouldn't say it is easy but it's not awful either. You can turn it over and get most of what you ground in the lid. I use a paper towel to wipe it down.

Don it buy this thermos! I had one and loved it. I began getting sick to my stomach for a while. One day at my desk I fill the cup and drank about half. I started that sick feeling again. That push button cap cannot be disassembled to clean. There was mold in that cap. I threw the bottle away and gave been fine ever since.

It's easy to clean. The rubber parts come off so you can wash them. For the bottle, I use a bottle brush with soft bristles and a handle.

Yes, very easy. Just a swipe with a paper towel to dry it out on the inside and inside the cap and your done.

It is very easy to clean. The cap disassembles so you can clean all of the pieces. It does not leak, the cap also locks in place

It's very easy to clean. I clean it with soap and water. The clear top part seems to get dirty easy. It's no problem to clean, and I just let it air dry.

Hand-washing is super-easy. The inside of the cap has a "flip-up" lever to expose all internal parts, for easy access. These things are MUCH better than the units with straws, which tend to mold really easily. This auto seal design is by-far the best one out there. Beware though that THIS particular Contigo unit is prone to fractures of the upper threaded plastic ring when dropped. My kids (elementary school) have wrecked FIVE of these by accidentally dropping them. I recommend the Contigo auto seal travel mugs as a better choice (slightly larger).

It is never a good idea to complete immerse any thermos fully in water -because the bottom part might get water logged. All other answers here some correct, just don't let the very bottom sit in water. I think the inside and outside is easy to clean, the inside lid/seal will require more care as it is where bacteria will tend to form most. So far, I just use it for hot tea and just rinse the inside out with water and unscrew the inside lid and clean it well -haven't even used soap yet but should as soon as I get a bottle brush.

No, It is not difficult to clean it. I think it's as easy as clean another recipient!

Yes, very easy. I've had some coffee mugs that get all crusty under the lid. Doesn't happen with this one.

It is very easy to clean! I just stick mine in the dishwasher since the bottle is dishwasher safe!

When you remove the cup and unscrew the "cap" on the thermos, the stainless steel "mouth" of the thermos is wide and easy to drink from however it is stainless steel which is not the most pleasant surface to drink from AND if the beverage is very hot, this "mouth" tends to be hot as well.

In general, it is very easy to clean. Pop the top off, dump everything in the trash, and wipe it out. The only part that is sort of gross is the part under the water bottle. It gets sort of disgusting, but is still not difficult to clean - just sort of yuck.
