Know before you buy

Yes, the standard Cobalt Blue Gluggle Jug is dishwasher safe. However, avoid using abrasive cleaners to maintain the finish over time.

While the ceramic is durable, it is primarily designed for cold beverages like water, juice, or wine. We recommend avoiding boiling liquids to prevent thermal shock.
