I read many reviews of "cracks" however, do all these people wash them in dishwashers? I wash my dishes in the sink by hand, and would want to know if it just cracks with normal use.

We've used ours at least 50 times so far and washed them in our dishwasher (a Kenmore). They still look pretty much the way we received them, so we're happy.

We use the dishwasher 90% of the time which may have contributed to the cracks and the dulling...It might be worth a try if you only hand wash..

I don't have a dishwasher and every one of these glasses has cracked for me. And most did not crack during washing, but rather when I filled them with a drink. For instance, they crack if you put slightly cold tap water in them.

I always wash the acrylic glasses by hand, even if they say they are top rack safe. My guess is the cracking is from the dishwasher. I have never had a problem with cracking, unless one gets washed in the dishwasher, by mistake.

I never put mine in the dishwasher. I just wash with soap and water, and let it dry thoroughly. Easy peasy.

I'll be honest I have not tried it in the dishwasher. It's so easy to wash and rinse in the sink that I tend to do that after every use. It's seems sturdy enough though if I were to put it in

Mine have done beautifully in the dishwasher thus far. When I can, I wash by hand, but I have done both depending on what is being strained. They are made for light items, not items that require the strength of metal. I use mine for water kefir grains mostly.

I've used the dishwasher without problem, except have to shake out some water after it's clean...the only problem I've had is losing one! Never had one break while I've owned it. Like the idea of a water pik, but think it's unnecessary.

Yes, Rebecca. I put the bowls in the dishwasher and have never had any problems. Great bowls!

I have seen some small rust spots on mine after a couple months of use, but I was using the dishwasher. Since them I've switched to hand washing always.

I love my soap Cruet. I leave it out on the sink for fast use. I have broken one, you have to remember it is glass. But that is what I love about it. I do use it for dishwashing soap. As soon as I broke my old one, I replaced it. That is how much I love it.

Hey Laura! I think this is normal if you wash them in the dishwasher, but if you wash them by hand it won't happen!

I wash mine in the dishwasher all the time. They have held up quite nicely. The one that I use the most has recently developed a very small rough spot so I will be replacing it but they are very good for the price I think. ;-)

I have not had great results in a dishwasher. We find they last longest, hand washing with a soft sponge or rage, but even then there is still some wear.

I don't know. I've never had this problem & I've been using mine for some time now. I don't have a dish washer so all of my washing & drying is done by hand. Maybe that makes the difference, mine are dried right away.

Knives shouldn't go in the dishwasher. They are liable to get rattled around which can damage them. I always hand wash my knives.

I always put them in the dishwasher. I've had these for over one year now and have had no problems. Perhaps the other reviewer left them in the sink for an extended period of time, sitting in water, I don't know, but if you wash them regularly, dishwasher or hand wash, then there is no problem.

I honestly have not even thought of that. It is just so easy and quick to clean by hand, that it never occurred to me to try the dishwasher. I have a dish brush that gets into all the threads and (almost nonexistent ) grooves, so it's super fast clean up. Sorry!

Yes - i've washed mine in the dishwasher many times and haven't had any issues!

Honestly I hand wash them. I have never tried the dishwasher. My best friends also only hand wash theirs.
