is it possible to put these pans in the dishwasher or is it better wash them by hand?

I have done both. It's better to wash them by hand, but on occasion I'll put them in the dishwasher. I haven't noticed any damage to them so far and I've had my set for 3 years.

You "can" put them in the dishwasher but I recommend hand washing!!! Helps preserve the mirror finish on the pots and I think it is better overall to keeping the pans in pristine condition.

I have washed mine by hand so far. They come clean so easily I haven't felt the need to put them in the dishwasher!

I have had my set for a couple of years now and I only hand wash them. They say you can put them in the dishwasher but I'm not so sure that they would look as good if you do. I have also found that they clean up very easily by hand so why risk it. Just a side note: I have discovered that to get off any "staining" to the inside of the pan you can soak the pan in a 50/50 mix of vinegar and water for about five minutes and they look good as new.

Just washing them with a little soap and water. They are also supposed to be dishwasher safe, but I just hand wash them. It is very easy to clean.

They recommend hand washing them but I have put mine in the dishwasher since I purchased them and have not had any problems with them whatsoever.

I hand wash them because they generally don't really get dirty. Sorry, not sure about the dishwasher.

I put mine through the dishwasher and eventually they started rusting very badly under the lip of the pan. I would highly recommend hand washing.

I don't if they are dishwasher safe. I just hand wash them with warm water and soap.

Honestly, I have not put mine in the dishwasher. However, I have not needed too. They wipe clean or clean up beautifully with a damp sponge. I love these pans. The description says "dishwasher-safe but handwashing recommended to prolong life". I think you just don't want to have water standing on them. I have always bought cheap ones, but no more. I don't think you can go wrong with these.

I washed them a in the dishwasher for a while, but began handwashing them because they were getting bad water spots on them. It looked almost like the soap had clung to the knives. Could just be my dishwasher, but these knives are very simple to hand clean. I believe the manufacturer recommends handwashing as well, but I know that they can be washed in the dishwasher. Hope that helps.

I do not put mine into the dishwasher so I do not have any problem. Word to the wise: do not put good pots and pans into your dishwasher; wash by hand, it only takes a minute. Dishwasher detergent is very harsh on finishes.

They are dishwasher safe, I haven't put them in the dishwasher extensively, I usually wash by hand.

No. Do not put them in the dishwasher. You lessen the life of any cutlery or metal cookware by putting it in the dishwasher even if it says dishwasher safe.

I would imagine they are dishwasher safe. They are very well made, but I washed mine by hand.

I would not for the simple reason that these are seasoned and easily rinse clean. I put a drop of liquid soap and hot water in mine and let them set. Swish and rinse. Caustic dishwasher soap will remove your seasoned process and the pans will not perform as well.

I wash them by hand. They would probably be fine on the dishwasher, but I rather not risk it.

If you hand wash them, they are reusable. I would not recommend the dishwasher.

I don't have a dishwasher, but I have hand washed them. I've never used them more than twice. but DON'T bake a cake in them! I did yesterday & it was a disaster!
