- pwthornton 7y agoIs there any plastic that is actually dishwasher safe? I thought just about all of it started leaching when exposed to high temperatures.
- donatj 7y agoThe inside of my dishwasher is made out of plastic, so I'd assume there'd have to be.
- pwthornton 7y agoI don't think the actual racks are plastic. Specifically, all the recommendations I have seen are that you should not microweave or put in the dishwasher plastic containers. That's for food, so you can see where the leaching concerns would be. But I wonder for this if part of it is that it has such close proximity to a lot of your face.
- donatj 7y agoNo, but the walls are.
- pwthornton 7y agoThe walls are but the walls don't directly touch anything in there to directly leach. Also, a lot of dishwashers have metal tubs, and this is probably a big reason why.

- kevin_thibedeau 7y ago"Dishwasher safe" means won't deform in scalding water and steam.
- reaperducer 7y agoIs Melmac considered plastic? I have Melmac plates.
