Do these plates warp? I had their regular (non-divided) plates and they warped after the first time they were washed.

Not at all. They are dishwasher safe. Use always top rack. I have been using them fora year for my gran kids. They still look new.

No, I have washed mine plenty in the dishwasher and they are still good as new!

I have not seen any of our plates warp or any indicators of such. We have 6 of them and they get put on the bottom rack of the dishwasher. Do note though, as per the instructions, we do not put them in the microwave. I haven't seen or owned the non-divided plates, but I'd imagine they're thinner than these. These are very thick, but light, and once you hold, feel and use them the first time, you instinctively know they'll last a while through much punishment (dropping, washing, banging, etc). They're definitely worth it.

So far, no warping. I have had them for more than 3 months and have had them in the dishwasher several times. They are holding up great!

Mine warped after I placed them in the dishwasher (top rack). I could not get them back to shape after and they now are of no use. I contacted the company but got no reply.

Hello! I purchased mine ages ago, and still going strong. They are quite thick but not heavy. Have come in great use at our house.

Thanks for asking this! I too bought the non-divided plates and they warped TERRIBLY after washing once. There was a little insert that says just to bend them back if they warp from washing... but that NEVER worked. =( I'm hesitant to try the divided, but I really like them and hope they'll work better. Love the bowls!

Wow never heard of that before! These plates don't bend/warp and are solid hard microwave plates, perhaps under excessive heat in the hot water washing etc, in the dishwasher it may warp or even crack under those conditions. Had these for quite sometime and had not happen at all. These are relatively inexpensive microw plates and excellent for microwaving food. Esp these are made in the USA.

I think the answer to the above question may explain why some pans warp badly and others do not. Apparently there are two different pans being sent out? One good and one cheap? I know the one I got in December is solid and heavy (not thin) and has never warped or twisted.

Mine is not warped. Make sure you have put it on in the proper orientation. Could also be a defect.

None that I saw. I washed them in the dish washer. They have a locking pivot point that easily allows to separate and clean.

I haven't washed it yet. Maybe ask the company? When I do wash, I'll probably swish in soapy water and let it dry. It twists together and if the dishwasher is very hot, it might warp some.

I've hads these pans for a while & they haven't warped. They are about the same weight as my old set of pans (not PD's brand) and thoses never warped. Here's something to think about. They are porcelain. Have you ever seen a toilet warp? So far, the only problem I've had is discoloration on the exterior of the smallest pan. I also only hand wash these.

Mine have not so far and I've put them in the dishwasher before. Good question, will keep an eye on mine.

Yes, no problems there, no warping. I've been using these trays for many years, I always have one on my lap because I use a wheelchair full-time. With all that use, I like to sanitize them in the dishwasher.

I've put them in the dishwasher and they haven't warped or melted, but I haven't put them in the microwave. I have mixed hot foods in them and it has not been a problem. They seem sturdy and durable enough to tolerate a fair amount of heat. Nothing too extreme. I would trust them in the microwave.

I have put them in the dishwasher and they come out curled and go flat again no problem. Have never rolled them though. Hope this helps!

Wash them on the lower rack all the time. Never warped or showed signs of adverse wear.

Hi Pat, I had no problems with warping. When I finish cooking in it, most of the time I immerse it in waler to begin soaking and have not had a problem.

Mine haven't, only washed them a couple times, cold water, only put them in a dryer for a few minutes. They hang dry really quickly.

Yes, I've used these pans under a broiler on high multiple times. I had no problems with warping like thin, cheaper pans. They are great, solid and thick aluminum.

Hello! They are some type of plastic. When washing, I make sure to use water that's hot, but not "too" hot, so they won't warp. I hope this helps?

My pan hasn't warped due to the fact that I let it cool first before washing. I think the degree of heat should not matter; just try letting the pan cool before washing. Hope this helps.
