Can you put air fryer crisper plates in the dishwasher?
Some air fryer crisper plates are dishwasher safe, but nonstick-coated plates should be hand washed unless your manual clearly says the crisper plate can go in the dishwasher.
Updated May 4, 2026
Why
Crisper plates often use nonstick coating and small rubber feet or bumpers. Dishwasher heat and rack contact can wear coatings and loosen small parts over time.
Source note
Check the exact air fryer manual because basket, tray, and crisper-plate instructions are often listed separately.
Caveats
- Remove loose food before washing so crumbs do not bake onto the coating.
- Check whether rubber feet or silicone bumpers should be removed first.
- Hand wash if the coating is chipped, peeling, or already losing its slick feel.

Some air fryer baskets and trays are dishwasher safe, but many nonstick parts should be hand washed unless the manual clearly says the basket, tray, or drawer can go in the dishwasher. Never put the powered air fryer body in the dishwasher.
air fryer drawersAir fryer drawers are dishwasher safe only when the manual says the removable drawer or pan is dishwasher safe. Hand wash nonstick drawers when the manual is unclear.
air fryer racksPlain stainless steel air fryer racks are often dishwasher safe, but coated racks, skewer pieces, and accessories with plastic or silicone parts need manual-specific guidance.
