Anyone else have issues with the bottom of the pan and the top rim turning black when it comes out of the dishwasher?!

I do not put mine into the dishwasher so I do not have any problem. Word to the wise: do not put good pots and pans into your dishwasher; wash by hand, it only takes a minute. Dishwasher detergent is very harsh on finishes.

I have not had any issue with the bottom of this sauce pan and I do not put it in the dishwasher because it is so easy to clean. I use a few drops of dishwashing soap and a paper towel and it is done. No matter what was cooked it is so easy to clean and no stains. I did have an issue with the frying pan version. The first time I used it and washed it, on the bottom running the paper towel around a sliver of metal came up from one of the grooves on the bottom. It didn't stab my finger but I was really surprised. It came off cleanly and I have had no problems since. I would advise buyers to check over the bottoms to aviod unpleasent surprises.

Yes mine is now blackish. I don't know if I'm not adding enough oil to it or what but food does stick :(

I wouldn't put it in the dishwasher. I usually hand wash mine, but have run it through the dishwasher twice and the black is peeling off. I've only had it a couple months, so this is disappointing.

I also received mine and I had the same problem, unable to remove the pan. I need to wash it before I start use it.

I place the entire top in the silverware tray of my dishwasher and have had no issues! Hope this helps!

Just noticed ours is moldy (after 2 years on the spout!) and I'm going to replace it. But the entire inside is coated with black. Yuck!

I'm sorry you are having such a hard time with your cookware. If you purchased this second set thru QVC, they may take it back,although I don't know how long ago you made your purchase or perhaps it's just this one particular piece and lid that you can have replaced, I would contact QVC since you bought the cookware through them. I personally have not had any issues at all with my cookware, I have been delighted since I took them out of the box. I hope you can get your situation resolved! Lori

I've had mine for over 2 years now and just one is starting to do that... we've always had well water so I can't say that is the reason yours are turning colors.However, in the past month I've had two that the tips have broken off of. I wonder if it's my dishwasher or if it's the knife.

Definitely a sign of it being in a dishwasher I personally experienced the separation after washing it in a dishwasher. They can't take the heat.

It happens to be in my dishwasher right now. I have washed it in the dishwasher before with no problems.

I put mine in the dishwasher to wash it. Otherwise, I would suggesting putting in a mild solution of bleach and see if that works.

don't put it in the bottom rack, mine partially melted doing that, put top rack in the dishwasher was not a problem for me

I have not had that problem. I guess I might try spraying it with Pam or other cooking spray. Good Luck!

We have had no problem with ours in fact I have two pans that are 7 years old and no problem. I wish you good luck, yours may just be a manufacture defect.

My guess is during the cooking process, the heat was set higher then the lid was placed on and the temp reduced. That will create a vacuum (same thing happens with other 360 cookware if you leave the lid on and turn heat off). Simple fix! Turn the heat up a bit and in a minute the lid comes right off - no probs!

Tina I don't know what that would be. I've never had that problem, but I would definitely call the manufacturer and let them know about it. That is really strange. Sorry I couldn't help you. How long have you had the skillet? Can you return it?

Hmmm I haven't notice that to be a problem. I don't really soak it or run it through the dishwasher. I just get a soapy dishrag and wash it and rinse it right away.
