the finish of my pan got wrecked when my friend put it in the dishwasher. Is it wrecked for good?

I've had this happen with other aluminum baking pans (my husband put in the dishwasher). Unfortunately, there's nothing you can do to bring back the original look. I don't think it affects the baking process or the taste of any foods baked in it, but it sure is unsightly to look at!

I don't know I only hand wash mine. maybe contact wilton company and see what they have to say?

I wouldn't think so. Just be sure you grease and flour it before baking in it next time. I have put mine in dishwasher and didn't seem to bother it. I have had mine for many years (30+). Try washing it by hand to see if that helps any. Sometimes the new dishwashing soaps leave a residue on things.

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 had the same problem with the color coming off on my hands. I called Kitchen aid, she told me it isn't suppose to go in the dishwasher. It is made of aluminum (not happy about that) and is NOT dishwasher safe. So I am going to purchase a new one and throw out the damaged one. Don't want aluminum in my food!

Thanks. I ended up using the little green scrubby pads and that did the trick. I was just worried it would hurt the pan, but it looks as good as new.

When i put mine in the dishwasher it came out a bit deformed. it seems that parts of it melted or shrunk from the heat.

The pan has a non-stick finish and is an easy wash up. Personally, I don't put any non-stick pans in the dishwasher. Why risk an expensive pan for a few seconds wash?

Sorry, this was purchased as a gift and sent directly to a family member; however, I like barkeepers friend for cleaning such things. But if you have any doubt about causing damage to the pan I would contact Cuisinart directly.

I don't believe it is, because it's dishwasher-safe. When I had this pan for a short time, it seemed to be "painted" not anodized.

No, mine looks great, almost like new even after a lot of use. I have quite of few stainless steel pots and pan and nothing like what you are describing has ever happened. In my never to be humble opinion it is not common.

We have a couple of small imperfections in ours. The pan performs beautifully but is NOT scratch proof just non-stick.

I think the dishwasher would eventually remove the coating. It's an easy clean up with a damp sponge and a little soap.

I did not wash it completely but i clean it dish sponges, or wipes, They eat, paint on it, nothing happened, i will say it should be ok. It has a very glassy finish

I can't answer this from personal experience (I don't own a dishwasher), but I have heard that the powdered exterior finish may be damaged in the dishwasher (it may lose its color). Again, I have no personal experience with this.

On the safety, use and care instructions that came with the pan it says, "This cookware is NOT dishwasher safe. Using it in the dishwasher will void your entire warranty."

I love this cookware. But, I haven't put it in the dishwasher for fear of the anodized outer shell of the pan coming off & maybe even getting on other dishes. I've read negative comments about that. So, it's not worth it to me. I just hand wash them. Food does come off well.

I do not put pans in dishwasher so don't know and I have not put this in the over so don't know. Sorry I'm no help. But I love this pan!

The dishwasher ruined my first one. I would recommend hand washing this. The metallic top separated from the rubber when using the dishwasher, in essence destroying it.
