Anyone know if the oil pot can be put in a dishwasher safely or does it have to be hand washed?

I don't put it in the dishwasher, excess oil is not good, hand wash I feel is best

I belive it can be. Anything that is not electric. The actual heating element must never be put in or near water where it could possibly get wet.

Yes you can put the "oil pot" in the dishwasher. Just don't ever run the electronic control head (with the control dials) in the dishwasher. I've been real satisfied with this unit. Hopes this helps you.

Yes, I put the pot in the dishwasher all the time. It can also be put in the refrigerator.

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

The instruction manual which accompanied the pot says it can go in the dishwasher, but it will eventually dull the surface. It won't damage the surface or impair performance but you paid a lot for this beautiful cookware so when cool, hand wash it. If food is baked on just soak cooled pot in warm water for 20 minutes, and you can use a plasic scrubber sponge, not steel wool. The pot actually cleans up really easily.

Yes, the pot with lid can be washed in dishwasher. I personally don't put pots and pans in dishwasher.

The pressure cooker pot is dishwasher safe but the top needs to be hand washed.

It may not be dishwasher safe. But try spraying Pam or wipe olive oil on it before using it.

I put mine in the dishwasher all of the time. Never had a problem. This cookware is awesome.

I've only washed by hand but don't see why not. It's a nice pot, not cheap.

No, I say that because they never recommend you put these pots in a dishwasher. Honestly, this thing cleans up so easily with hot water and soap there is no need to put it in your dishwasher. Besides it would take about half the room in a lower shelf if you did. Main reason for not putting it in the dishwasher, the heat dry can shorten the life of the non-stick finish on the inside of the pot.I'm a die hard dishwasher fan, but not for my pots. I wish everything was as easy to clean as this pot.

I have one and although I have not yet put it in the dishwasher (the manual says just rinse and repeat... yeah right, I wish it was that simple), when you think about it all the materials in this are made to handle boiling hot water. So of course it is dishwasher safe. It's not going to melt in there like some thermoplastics will. On a side note, I have found that rinsing it as the manual suggests is not adequate. Oils/grease will build up and, yeah, since you pour boiling water in there you're probably not risking disease, but I don't like to see a waxy looking buildup on the walls of this thing so I find myself wanting to wash it.

The cleaning instructions stated that you should not wash it in a dishwasher. I hand wash mine all the time and haven't had any issues with it.

I prefer to hand-wash with dish-soap and warm water. After being used, I fill it with hot water, leave it for some time then do the hand-washing. It is not a hard job, because it has a good non-stick surface. I do not wash my stockpot, skillet-pans in dishwashing machine. Therefore, I do not know if it is dishwasher safe or ot.

I do not put my Emeril cookware in the dishwasher. I had one small frying pan for a long time that I kept putting in the dishwasher and it ruined the outside finish on the pan. It is wonderful cookware and washes up by hand easily!

I hand washed mine. But I don't see why you couldn't put it in the dish washer.

We have only hand washed ours, but it is dishwasher safe. Like another poster stated, it really doesn't get too much "gunk" due to the way it works. However, I do not recommend this product.
