The catalog states that it is dishwasher safe.... have any of you ever put it in the dishwasher? Mine fell completely into the sink when washing it and the dial had moisture in it. I can't imagine putting it in the dishwasher. What do you all think?
 
I usually just use a clorox wipe or an alcohol pad to clean mine (something I learned at work...sooooooooo much easier to just wipe it off right away and be done with it).
