Do you find these hold onto soap? Ours are continually greasy and only truly "clean" feeling after the dishwasher despite us trying diff soaps etc

Nope, I have not noticed this. I think the texture/finish of the plates are slick in nature and arrived this way.

I always wash ours in the top rack of our dishwasher so I am not sure. They seem clean after a good dishwasher cycle for us as well.

I actually never hand wash them and only put them in the dishwasher, so I can't answer.

I have never noticed this however we usually dishwasher ours, top shelf. They always come out nice and clean. I'm sure I have hand washed them before in a pinch and did not notice a greasiness.

I also use top shelf in Dishwasher. Occasionally when by hand, they feel like other plastics. Use a little vinegar in bowl to cut oily feeling. I love these plates for our 19 month old.

This was my only issue with the replay dishes. No matter what I served, chicken, pasta, etc. it required more than a good swipe of soap. I had to wash it 2, maybe 3 times to get the greasy feeling off.

I have not had this issue but I always put them in the dishwasher first and they come out with a non-greasy clean feeling.

No issues with soap here. We use 7th generation dish soap. I did notice that one of them is a bit stained from spaghetti sauce.

I have had them for quite a while now and must admit I keep asking myself this same question....mine look slightly stained and don't have quite the same perfect roundness to their shape after lots of use and several exposures to the dishwasher, and I'm not sure if they would look better or worse if I had never put them in the dishwasher. I do occasionally but not always. A majority of the time I wash them by hand. The good news is that they are still functional and very useful.

I've been making egg-and-veggie quiche-like things in them, and they have retained a little bit of odor from the scallions, but I'm hand-washing them (I don't have a dishwasher) which might make a difference. I haven't noticed them holding a dish soap smell.

My wife will not wash pans by hand. She told me staight up when I bought them that they were going into the dishwasher. After about a year of use and dishwasher washing they are still doing fine. My children also use them a lot and careless use of metal utensils has led to some light scratches in the most frequently used pans, but they still don't stick, and I haven't noticed much difference in performance due to the dishwasher. Still - one would expect longer life if you was them by hand. There is some change in color in the stainless base but it doesn't effect cooking performance.

I don't think it's recommended to wash them in the dishwasher in order to protect the nonstick coating. But the nonstick coating works so well, washing by hand is a breeze. I rarely if ever have to let them soak beforehand, any cooking residue just comes right off with soap and water.

I wash them... Then spray or wipe any kind of cooking oil you have handy.I LOVE mine. I use them ALL the time

I may have already responded. No!!! Do not put them in the dishwasher. Hope u get this in time.

You can probably machine wash them, but it would likely shorten their lifespan. I don't think that they are intended to be washed that way or with those types of soap. Frankly, I just use a little liquid dish soap (the kind that you'd use in the dispenser near the sink - not the kind you put in a dishwasher) and some warm water.

I don't have a problem putting them in the dishwasher. In fact I did put them in dishwasher and they were fine. Now what I did also do is TURN OFF the heated cycle and I put them on the top rack. That always helps when washing plastic items.

I've successfully washed them many times in my dishwasher. I can't speak to the manufacturer's recommendation but I've had no issues doing so.

Mine have not so far and I've put them in the dishwasher before. Good question, will keep an eye on mine.

Yes i wash everytime. They will still be a little greasy feeling. But it will do just fine. Ive washed at least 10 times no problems yet

Nope. Stays in nicely, however, dishwashing them has caused some scratches. Hand washing is better & i wish i had headed that warning! Still nice, just scratched up.

I would not put these in the dishwasher because most detergents are too harsh. Just wash them in warm water with a little mild dishwashing soap and dry with soft towel. They will always look like new.

Wow, sorry for the delayed response. We wash ours in the dishwasher on the top rack or in the silverware tray now and then. Mostly I just wash them by hand though.

These dishes hold up very well in the dishwasher. We use our set for daily dining, and all dishes go straight in the dishwasher! Just a tip from my experience: avoid citrus or lemon-infused dishwasher detergents. I've always found out these leave (removable) dark spots on the gold bands. Other than that, load them in the dishwasher as often as you'd like!

Honestly I never thought about putting them in the dish washer, but I do not see why not! They are made well so I bet they would hold up. I just soak them in a sink of hot soapy water. I may try your idea.
