Dishwasher Can you put the grill plate in the dishwasher. many reviews on this site and others say that you can but the manual says not to.

I placed mine in the dishwasher once without the temperature knob and it came out and is still working fine. I would highly recommend turning off any drying options on your dishwasher. Also, my water may not quite be at sterilizing levels. It came out clean, but I'm reading other reviews now to see how many other people have successfully dishwashed it.

No! Do not put the grill plate in the dishwasher and do not immerse it in water. You cannot get the temperature control switch wet at any time.

The manual does say no...but I put mine in the dishwasher for cleaning and I haven't had any issues.

Maybe the top, the pan and the rack. But you definitely can not put the base in the dishwasher.

Yes they are dishwasher safe, but that's totally unnecessary for a grill. Just preheat your grill each time you cook, and scrape them with a grill brush and you're good to go. The high heat kills any bacteria and they will last a long time.

i wouldn't put a cast iron grill in the dishwasher. If it's bare cast iron, just heat it up on the grill and burn up all the "stuff" then brush off with a wire brush. cast iron "seasons." The baked on stuff actually preserves the grill. now if you have an enamel coated one, it would be safer in the dishwasher. but still pointless to put it in there. just heat it up and cook off the stuff.

Good question, I don't have a dishwasher so I wouldn't know. I would personally stick with hand-washing it. A quick rinse and wipe off is all you need. Unless it's made from stainless steel, which I don't think it is, a dishwasher may not be the best idea.

I haven't tried them in the dishwasher. I usually power wash them once or twice a year. Each time I grille I turn the grill on high for five or ten minutes and burn off residue from the last use and use a wire brush to remove the stuff that gets burned on.

No you cannot put it into the dishwasher but the containers are easy to wash as there are no sticky products that are used.

This is the standard model - no removable grill plates. This is not a problem for me, since it is easily cleaned with a damp sponge and wiped with paper towels, given the nonstick surfaces. This is the third of this type I have had, over a number of years, because the non-stick surfaces do eventually wear out.

Honestly, I have never had to place it in the dishwasher. The handles snap off in a breeze, the drip tray rinses easily and the surface wipes clean. Even with cooking bacon or pancakes I simply wipe everything away. I made bacon this morning, I placed the whole pack on the surface(minus 3 pieces) when finished wiped clean and placed it above my fridge. If you pin me to an answer I am not sure with the cooking surface, you can definately place the handles and drip pan in the dish washer

With hot soap & water. Not sure if you can put it in a dishwasher or not...but I would guess that you can. It's just a metal platter.

I don't put mine in the dishwasher. I first wipe it out with a dry paper towel, then I take a wet paper towel and wipe it out. Cleans up really good. I use mine at least 3 to 4 times a week. Love it. Hope this helps.

No. Do not put them in the dishwasher. You lessen the life of any cutlery or metal cookware by putting it in the dishwasher even if it says dishwasher safe.

No, the grill plates are not removable, which can make it very difficult to clean.

Yes, so far I have had no issues with putting in dishwasher. I do pre rinse it first. This is a really good tenderizer, super fast and easy.

I believe so. I have never put mine in the dishwasher. I keep it at work and always wash it by hand. I would put it in the top rack of the dishwasher, if I were you.

The temperature gauge can be pulled out and you can wash most of the grill. I would just wipe down the plastic outside framework, but the rest should be okay. I very seldom use a dishwasher. You should have gotten written instructions, too.

I hand wash mine. Unsure whether it can go in dishwasher. However, I love my unit, it cooks everything so well.
