Is It Safe To Wash 'Silver' Silverware In My Dishwasher?

● It is usually safe to wash your silverware in the dishwasher without fear of tarnishing, but discoloration may occur.

● Avoid the risk of tarnishing by rinsing acidic foods or salt off your silverware prior to loading.

● Also, take the silverware out immediately after the dishwasher finishes so it is not left in a humid atmosphere.

● Do NOT mix stainless steel and silver utensils in the same basket.

Important: Silver plated items often only have a thin layer of silver and should not be washed in the dishwasher.
