Hellobee Boards

I'm VERY picky with what goes in the dishwasher! I never put any pots and pans in there, no nice knives, barely any plastics, no wooden utensils, no wine glasses.

I will put all of our plates, bowls, regular silver ware, glasses, leftover containers (Rubbermaid)

I wash a lot by hand but thats ok.

The only knives that go into our d/w are butter knives.
There's a long list of no nos including pots, pans, "nice" dishes, any glasses with decals. basically the only thing that goes in are our everyday porcelain dishes forks, spoons, pub glasses.

We use the dishwasher for everyday plates, cups, bowls, and silverware. Anything wooden, plastic, or crystal is hand washed, along with large glass bowls, pots/pans/lids, bakeware, and most knives.

Everything but our really good pots and pans, even though they're supposedly dishwasher-safe.

Oh year, we don't put our wine glasses or nice pots and pans in there, either.

@MrsTiz: What Mrs. Bee said

No pots and pans, no wood (only applies to our nice wooden salad bowls, I put my wooden sauce spoons in there all the time), no big cutting board or colander only bc they don't fit.

We don't put nice knives in there but everything else is pretty much fair game.

I never knew about not putting wood utensils in dishwasher because they can crack.

I actually like putting them in the dishwasher because I feel they can be cleaner because the dishwasher sanitizes them. It kinda freaks me out that there might be things growing on my wood utensils. Plus, the wood utensils I have are pretty cheap. I bought a 5 pack at Walmart. If they crack, I'll just throw them out.
Need to remind myself not buy expensive wood utensils, though.

No fancy glasses, no wood (except for wooden spoons - I figure they are cheap enough that it doesn't matter). No knives with handles (cause they expand at different rates than the steel and then separate from the blade), no baking sheets or pans and no cast iron.

@bluestriped bee: Did you know that wood has natural anti-bacterial properties? You don't need to be scared of hand-washing if you ever get something fancy.

Clean dishes go in the dish washer--it's my drying rack.

LOL... and things that don't fit go in there. But since it's a drying rack, I put everything from China to tuperware, and crystal to baby bottles.

Almost everything. The only exceptions are my Paula Deen pots & pans and a wooden salad bowl set that we have.
