I have had my Krups for about 3 years. Love it to death. Just wondering if anyone puts the metal bucket in the dishwasher?

Yes. It doesn't seem to do any harm but I do get better results by hand scrubbing it with vinegar.

Yes, I wash the metal bucket in the dishwasher all the time. I'm not sure if this is recommended though. I would put it on the top shelf.

I wouldn't place it in the dishwasher or use abrasive cleaners as that plastic plate on the urn's bottom will degrade over time and start dispensing plastic particulates into your coffee. It happened to both KM 9000s that I had.

I run mine through the dishwasher and have no problems. Haven't seen any rust spot yet either. I haven't tried hand washing but I bet it would be that difficult.

I don't put mine in the dishwasher and have had no problems. If it was all stainless steel it would be okay to use the dishwasher, but then, stainless steel feet can make marks in a sink and thehandles might get hot and hard to handle. Hope this helps.

Stainless cleans great in the dishwasher. Even with black coffee, I would just put it in the dishwasher with everything else at night.

It never occurred to me to put it in the dishwasher. It's so big. I always wash it by hand.

I put mine in the dishwasher all of the time. Never had a problem. This cookware is awesome.

I read here that it was ok in the dishwasher. Mine turned a muddy brown color in the translucent parts. It's too big to fit on my top shelf but I was able to secure it in the bottom rack. Now I've ordered another one because this one looks "sick" from its dish-washing journey. Won't put the new one in, of course. Soft scrub and a strong paper towel washed the first one quite well, don't know why I even thought to do otherwise.

I put mine in the dishwasher...once. Doing so warped the spinner basket somewhat. The bowl is tougher and wasn't affected. Really, since those two parts are only thing you normally have to wash, hand washing them is pretty easy.

I have had mine for about 3 months and have had no problems. I don't put it in the dishwasher though.

I wash parts of mine in the dishwasher, some parts are just easier to wash by hand. Just be sure the metal part is dry before storing.

I have run it through a dishwasher without a problem. Though 1/2 the washes are by hand, more for convenience than worry about top rack dishwashing.

I'm not sure if yours is rusted yet or if this is a what if question.....but I never wash mine in the dishwasher or submerge in water. I wash only the whisk or beaters tips and I've never had an issue. I've had mine for a few years and its still in great shape.

I never put it in the dish washer, but I think on the upper rack should be safe. Mine still looks brand new and I use it every day. I love it.

I wish I could help you, but our Krups has never given us any problems....I am wondering how it actually " broke? " We have never experienced leaks. Krups is a very good name, I am surprised at this happening.

Don't put it in the dishwasher. I use rubber spatulas - no metal and I also separate mine with cloth napkins to avoid any scratches.

I don't wash any of my stainless in the dishwasher. You can, but it will never look new again.

I just want to "ditto" on the hand wash only. I had a beautiful shiny silver pan that was washed in the dishwasher at work. Now it is so ugly - blacked and whatnot. I just popped out here to buy a new one. And I will make sure to NEVER leave it at work after a potluck again.
