    Dishwasher safe pans - the experts' choice for easy washing

    A dishwasher can save up to 50% of your water and 30% of your energy compared to washing by hand. Simply put, washing in the dishwasher fundamentally saves the less fun time spent in the kitchen. However, not all dishes will survive the uncompromising wash cycles. So let's take a closer look at the pans that can be washed in the dishwasher, as well as those that should be avoided.

    Look for the manufacturer's marking
    The easiest way to tell if a pan is dishwasher safe is to look at the markings or symbols on the pan itself or on its packaging. Manufacturers often use the text 'dishwasher safe' or the dishwasher symbol.
    pan construction
    Construction of the pan
    If your pan has screwed joints, then it is much more suitable for the dishwasher than one with glued joints. A pan with a removable handle is also much more durable against the dishwasher, whereas a pan with a wooden handle should never go in.

    If you haven't found the symbol and you're not sure if it's a dishwasher safe pan, then keep in mind that materials like stainless steel, ceramic or non-stick pans can usually be washed in the dishwasher, while steel, cast iron and copper never can.
    pan experiences
    Experience and reviews
    If you're still hesitant, browse the internet and read other users' reviews. People often share their experiences with specific pan models, so it's quite possible that you'll find just the pan model you're interested in.

    How to wash the pan in the dishwasher
    • Remove any food residue before putting the pan in the dishwasher.
    • If the pan has a removable handle, remove it. This makes the pan easier to fit in the dishwasher and also prevents damage to the handle.
    • Place the pan in the lower basket where it will be exposed to a stronger flow of water.
    • Always turn the pan upside down, or at least diagonally, to prevent water from sticking in it.
    • Make sure the pan has plenty of room and no other utensils are touching it - this is to avoid scratching or damaging it.
    • Choose mild or normal washing. Avoid intense and very hot cycles that could damage the surface of the pan, especially for non-stick pans.
    • Choose gentle detergents from quality manufacturers.
    • When the cycle is complete, inspect the pan and if there are drops of water on it, dry it thoroughly with a cloth.
    • Don't forget about proper storage. The pan should have enough space (whether hanging, on a rack or in a kitchen cabinet) to avoid scratching it, and if that's not possible and you can't avoid stacking, rely on special padswhich protects the surface of the pan from damage.

    What to do if the pan gets damaged after being washed in the dishwasher?
    Check the manufacturer's instructions to see if it was actually suitable for the dishwasher.

If the pan was not suitable for the dishwasher, you should follow the manufacturer's instructions in the future.

    How do I know if a pan is dishwasher safe?
