My sincere advice is to never put cookware in the dishwasher - any cookware,
ever. Dishwashers are for dishes (and stainless flatware) and not for
cookware, cutlery, or gadgets or even glassware, in my opinion. I handwash
all my cookware and always have since I bought cookware I expected to last
more than a couple of years.

I think manufacturers who tout their cookware as dishwasher safe are doing a
disservice to the consumer. I feel the same way about the old
never-need-sharpening knives. Take care.
