dishwasher-safe

Survives hot cycles

Dishwasher-safe describes items that can be cleaned in a dishwasher without damage.

The label appears on cookware, utensils, and containers to indicate they'll withstand the machine's heat and detergent: Check if the lid is dishwasher-safe before you throw it in.

Items not dishwasher-safe may warp, discolor, or lose their finish.
