FAQs

How long does the Chilly's bottle keep drinks cold and hot?

The bottle keeps drinks cold for up to 24 hours and hot for up to 12 hours due to its double-wall vacuum insulation.

Can I put my Chilly's bottle in the dishwasher?

No, the Chilly's bottle is hand wash only. Dishwashers can damage the vacuum insulation and the exterior finish.

Is the bottle safe for carbonated drinks?

The bottle is not recommended for carbonated beverages. The pressure buildup from carbonation can cause the cap to be difficult to open or potentially lead to leakage.

What are the dimensions of the 500ml bottle?

The dimensions are approximately 26.3 cm in height and 7.1 cm in diameter.

Does the bottle come with a straw lid?

This model, the Original Bottle, comes with the standard screw-top lid. Separate straw lids may be available for purchase.

How should I clean the inside of the bottle?

Use a bottle brush with warm, soapy water. For stubborn residue, you can try a mixture of baking soda and water.

Is the packaging eco-friendly?

Yes, Chilly's has moved to paper wrap and bag packaging to reduce waste, moving away from previous card tube packaging.

Troubleshooting

Bottle is not keeping drinks as cold/hot as expected.

Ensure the cap is fully tightened. For optimal performance, pre-condition the bottle by filling it with hot water for hot drinks or cold water for cold drinks for a few minutes before emptying and filling with your desired beverage. Check for any visible damage to the bottle.

Difficulty opening or closing the cap.

Ensure the cap threads are clean and free from debris. If the cap feels stiff, try applying a tiny amount of food-grade lubricant to the threads. Avoid forcing the cap.

Exterior paint/finish is peeling or scratched.

This is usually due to improper care, such as abrasive cleaning or impact. Unfortunately, this cannot be reversed. For future use, ensure you adhere to the hand-wash-only and avoid abrasive materials guidelines.

Water bottle has a metallic taste.

Wash the bottle thoroughly with warm, soapy water and a bottle brush. If the taste persists, try filling the bottle with a mixture of baking soda and water, letting it sit for a few hours, then rinsing thoroughly.
