dishwasher safe

Survives hot cycles

Dishwasher safe describes items—usually kitchenware or tableware—that can be cleaned in a dishwasher without damage: Check if the plastic container is dishwasher safe.

The designation appears on product labels and packaging.

Items not dishwasher safe may warp, fade, or lose their finish when exposed to the machine's heat and detergents.
