"Safe to use in dishwasher cutter", has anyone tried using it in their dishwasher, and why would you want to?

The cutting portion of the can opener comes off (handle etc). Running it through the dishwasher cleans it and sterilizes it until the next time you use it! I do this ever so often if it looks gunky around the cutting blade.

Not a good idea Brandi. Ginsu advises against it.I have no problem washing and drying them. everything else goes into the dishwasher but not my knives.Michael

Sorry, I haven't put it in the dishwasher. It cleans up quickly and beautifully by hand washing, so I haven't thought to put it in the dishwasher.

I don't believe it is dishwasher safe, I can't find any information to the contrary. And it would seem by your results it would not be a good idea to put in the dishwasher. As I am constantly using the dispenser I just wipe it down with a damp cloth and it does a good job. Hope this helps.

No, it's not recommended. Dishwashers tend to dull knife blades much faster than they would dull with everyday use. I have never put mine in the diswasher and they're still going strong after 5 years without ever having been sharpened.

It would be fine. I usually hand wash mine, just be careful as it is really sharp. I use either a sponge or a dish mop, then rinse under hot water and let it air dry. I love mine, it is so easy to use, and makes a very clean cut. Hope this helps.

I would not recommend using it in the dishwasher because it has a higher sudsy action and could ruin your dishwasher. it is a great product for so many other uses but not in the dishwasher.

No it can not be used in a dishwasher. Instructions for care said it would warp the wood and the backing would become deteriorate. It's a great board and comes with a cutting mat, that is dishwasher safe.

I don't make it a practice to put any of my cookie sheets in the dishwasher. I feel with the harsh chemicals used in the dishwashing cleaners,you run a risk they will get surface damage.

I have put this in the dishwasher with no problems. I haven't had it very long though, and I'm not sure if it would dull the blades over the long term.

I always hand wash mine, but I don't see why it wouldn't be dishwasher safe.

I never put mine in the dishwasher and it stayed sharp a long time. Then I tried sharpening it with a Henckels knife sharpener. Didn't do a bit of good. So I use a sharpening steel. That is one of those round things with a handle on it. Now I am looking for a professional knife sharpening person at the local farmers market. Using the sharpening steel it is still the best knife in my kitchen.

The manual/pamphlet says in bold caps "do not wash any part of the slicer in dishwasher". They don't explain why but a lot of good knives say not to wash in dishwasher either...

Just checked the sleeve mine came in and there is no mention of whether it is dishwasher safe or not.Because it is plastic I would say yes, it is, but on the top shelf with the blade pushed in all the way so it doesn't get dull.I hand wash mine and am very happy to. It cleans up easily.

No it doesn't say dishwasher safe. I do clean my that way without incident ......I would like to add this is the best grater I have ever owned and even if I had to wash it by hand I would always have this brand.

Definitely not dishwasher safe. It would split or fall apart. I also think it's too big for a normal household dishwasher. I do have a dishwasher safe wooden cutting board that I've washed in the dishwasher many times and it still looks new. It's wood on both sides and sealed with resin around the edge but the size is considerable smaller at about 11 x 16.
