Is it really dishwasher safe? If so, does water tend to get stuck in handles?

You readily should wash "the junk" out as soon as you've pressed your garlic. Otherwise by the time you've started up your dishwasher, the remnants will likely to have adhered into the tiny holes making any cleaning attempt futile. It is built to withstand a dishwasher but I would doubt even the best dishwasher can get into the tight & tiny holes 100%. Then you'd still be left scrubbing it out manually.

Yes it is dishwasher safe. The Handle is sealed, there isn't a way for water to get into the handle.

I don't wash mine in the dishwasher, but just under running water in the sink. Water gets into the handles and is a nuisance because then the next time I use the press it drips water from the handles. Therefore I try to shake the water out of the handles as much as I can before I put it away.

no, I rinse all the time, I haven't put it in dishwasher. I dry after rinsing. I love it!!!There's so much room for lots of my utensils.

So far so good. I have had mine for several months and have washed it both by hand and in the dishwasher. I'm trying to wash it mostly by hand for fear of the design coming off, but my kids do the dishes so I often find it after it had been through the washer.

We always wash ours by hand. It is too big for our dishwasher. I don't remember if the literature said anything about it being dishwasher safe. Sorry we can't help more!

Not officially and I don't think I would place it in the dishwasher even though it's all plastic. Seems like there are too many places for water to get trapped.

Since it's all stainless-steel (even the handles), I don't see any way it could NOT be dishwasher safe! Although I DO have a dishwasher in my apartment, I never use it -- *I* am the dishwasher, so I wash this pot (and everything else) by hand -- it's just easier for me. Still, there's nothing on the pot to be harmed by being inside a dishwasher and would not be concerned about that at all.

Hi Sam. Although it claims to be dishwasher safe in the instructions I have not chosen to do that. It is so easy to clean that I don't want to risk pitting.

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

Yes, I put mine in the dishwasher daily (on the top shelf) and haven't had any problems. I love these water bottles/ have bought two and plan to buy more.

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 the handles might get hot and hard to handle. Hope this helps.

NO, this is definitely NOT dishwasher safe. I'm going to have to buy another one because a housemate put it in the top rack of the dishwasher and the lid is warped beyond usefulness. Do not put this in the dishwasher!

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

Yes. It's dishwasher safe. I've had mine for over a year now, and it's held up great!

I have been putting mine in the dishwasher for a while now and haven't noticed any issues so I believe it is OK.

I too am a fan of "dishwasher safe". I have yet to feel a need to put a brush in the dishwasher. It has cleaned up just fine by running the spinning brush under running water.

There is an icon on the box that indicates that they are dishwasher safe. I have put mine in the dishwasher many times, however, you have to be careful to angle the ends of the handles down below horizontal, otherwise water gathers in the cavity leading to the screw that holds the handles on, and takes awhile to drip out. I once put a pan on the stove whose handle still had water in it (I guess farther in below the screw), and it was literally acting like a teapot - steaming out the handle and whistling softly.
