Nope! You’ll <a href="https://www.grove.co/blog/how-to-wash-dishes-hacks">save time, money, and water</a> if you don’t. Plus, most modern dishwashers have a special sensor that judges just how hard it needs to work to get your dishes clean — if you scrub ‘em down too much, it might get the wrong idea and perform a lighter wash than you’d like. Let the <a href="https://www.grove.co/catalog/?category=dishwasher-detergent">detergent</a> and the appliance do the work for you.</p> <h3>Why aren’t some dishes dishwasher-safe?</h3> <p>Some insulated mugs are not dishwasher-safe because the heat of the appliance will <a href="https://www.consumerreports.org/dishwashers/things-to-never-put-in-dishwasher/" target="_blank">damage the vacuum seal</a> between the layers. Wood is not considered dishwasher-safe, either, as it can easily warp and crack. Plastics are also not always dishwasher-safe, and even if they are they should be washed on the top rack as far away from the heating element as possible to keep harmful chemicals at bay. Though you <em>could</em> send your sharp knives through the dishwasher, be aware that this may dull them over time! It’s best to wash them by hand with <a href="https://www.grove.co/catalog/?category=dish-soap">dish soap.</a></p>
