Has anyone put them through the dishwasher a handful of times? Thanks!

I bought them to just use once and throw away, so I don't know how they do in the dishwasher. I do like the straws.

These are disposable straws, made of the same stuff the straws are made of at fast food places. They're not meant to be reused. If you want reusable straws that you can wash in the dishwasher, you should buy reusable straws since the heat of the dishwasher water would surely melt these. Having said that, if you really want to wash and reuse these, I suppose you could dunk them in a dish pan of warm soapy water and wash them by hand. That's the only way I can imagine reusing them would be feasible, but I can't imagine why you'd want to do that.

I wouldn't. Yes, they MIGHT survive, but more likely they'll fall through and hit the spray arms, or worse, the heating element. Besides, they're (relatively) cheap and I wouldn't want to worry about stuff being stuck inside (corn kernals anyone?). Just my two cents worth.

Mine has not. I was them in the dishwasher and use them a few times a week.

I've had these for going on 2 years now and we put them in the dishwasher all the time with no issues. :)

I've put them in the dishwasher. If they don't stay open during the wash, they will not get as clean.

Hi, I haven't had that problem with mine, fortunately, and I've had them in the dishwasher 5-10 times (depending upon the size, I use some more than others). I wonder if the other reviewer had a scratched or knicked spot that caused that problem? Mine have been great, though.

I have had mine for 9 years and they always go in the dishwasher without any problems. Hope this helps.

Mine are starting to wear off and I haven't had them but about a year. I do put mine in the dishwasher though.

I have only washed them once in my washer on delicate. Since then I have been just washing them with soap and water while on my hands and it has been great! I hang them to dry on my drying rack.

No, we've used them multiple times, put them in the dishwasher and had no issues.

We have used them past 10-12 uses. Regularly put them in the dishwasher. Every so often have to take a bottle brush to get them fully cleaned.

I haven't tried to put them in the dishwasher... I hand wash and dry them after using them.

I've put mine in the dishwasher since I purchased. They seem to have held up well.

I wash mine by hand. They will chip easily, so I wouldn't take the chance in the dishwasher.

Yes, I always wash them in the dishwasher. I also use the small brush to wash the inside.

Mine haven't so far, and I bought them in February of 2014. I do put them in the dishwasher.

I have only washed a couple of them in the dishwasher once, but I had no problems.
