Hi


Are 3 layer non-stick-on-steel pans dishwashable? They're arc-spray
coated, with a thick ali base with stainless steel protector.

I've googled, and oddly I cant find a single page with washing
information this way.


Thanks, NT

Depends on the brand. My Prestige SS non-stick frying pan is
dishwasherable, but other brands may not be. Have you done a google for
info on the brand you have?

The simple answer is no. You shouldn't put your cookware in a dishwasher -
any cookware. Dishwashers are for dishes. Take care.

Hi Fred,

In a word: "Why?"

My dishwasher describes its pot cleaning ability, and my Sitram pots
come out looking like new.

Thanks for your comments,

Restaurants don't use a dishwasher for pots, they use people.

Wonder why, Hans? :-)

Because, if they have an airline (conveyor) type Hobart, it messes up=20
their water, Chuck.
Especially for the glasses.
And the pots are much dirtier than they would get at home.
The cycle is much shorter too, no adequate pre-soak.
But there is no reason, otherwise, not to run the lightly soiled pots=20
through the dishwasher, if there is capacity.

Plus, they need the dishwasher for their dishes and the pearldivers need =

to be kept busy.

My pots&pans go in the dishwasher at home (MC&Copper Classics), provided =

there is room.
No problems so far since the early eighties, although the Cuisinart are=20
recent.

Because when cooks burn stuff onto the pans, they need scrubbing with
wire wool! Also, if they use copper pans, or cast iron, those are NOT
dishwasherable. HOWEVER, all my stainless steel pans come with
dishwashering instructions, INCLUDING the Prestige non stick frying pan.

Commercial/hotel type dishwashers are not of the same type or
construction as domestic ones.

That's the kind I used! Horrible object! If I remember aright, they
use industrial strength liquid detergent too (ours, I think, ran on
stuff called T-Pol), rather than the caustic stuff of the domestic
dishwasher.

> Especially for the glasses.

I used to save them up and run them through separately, at the end.
Took less time than washing them by hand, they came out fine with
freshly de-bunged filters and clean water, and I just rinsed them off a
bit more with the hot water spray and they dried off fine without the
need for polishing. Got lipstick off the glasses a treat!

> And the pots are much dirtier than they would get at home.

OH, BOY, YES! Urk! Burnt on stuff half an inch thick!

> The cycle is much shorter too, no adequate pre-soak.
Bout 15 minutes, I seem to remember... Gave me time to load the next
basket of 50 plates...

I do that all the time. I run loads of nothing but pots sometimes, if
there's been lots of us, or I've been cooking with lots of saucepans!

Loading the bugger kept me quite busy enough! My brother washed the
pots, and nothing but the pots! AND told the cook off for burning them!

See above!

Some of my pots have been dishwashered almost daily for 15 years and
show no adverse symptoms.

I'm now educated on commercial dishwashers, but still dont know what
to do with Steelon pans I googled steelon and a whole assortment of
words to do with washing, of any kind, and was stumped to get not one
relevant hit at all.

The only interesting thing I learnt was that in India 'steelon' non
stick pans sell for about 2GBP to 3GBP for the bigger ones. Thats
about 3 to 5 USD. Perhaps I should reconsider my holiday ideas

Make sure you bring back recipes and spices when you go! ;D

Oh, and drop me off a few pans while you're at it! At that price, I can
stand a non-stick pan or two!
