Note: Do not try to open an H4i water chamber. You will not be able to reassemble it.

I put liquid soap in it once a week and shake it, and then it takes me about 30 times rinsing to feel I've gotten all the soap out. If I didn't use it for 2-3 days, it might dry out, but for daily use, it does not completely dry. I don't like it and would prefer the cleanable one.
One way to dry it is to just run your machine for 20 minutes or so.

Sorry I wasn't aware there were different types of water chambers .. Mine came with the dishwasher safe chamber.
