Playtex Drop ins

Are the bottles dishwasher safe? I thought the instructions said they were but the bottles got "deformed" in ours (top shelf)??? :confused:

We used those and they did fine in the dishwasher.

ours seem to survive the top rack just fine.

ours have survived the top rack.

Ours survived the top rack. Over time the designs on the premium ones wore off. I don't know how long you have had them but I would consider returning them.

So far, we have been fine in the top rack.

I also have a question for other playtex users--how often do you wash the bottles and the rings (collars)? Since they don't touch the milk, I tend to jsut rinse them after each use and wash in the dishwasher when I have space. Is this ok?

I wash the rings when I wash nipples. I just squirt some dish soap it in while it is still in the collar and use my fingers to swish it around and then take it out of the collar to rinse. I figure that gets the collar clean enough. The bottles get rinsed if I see any milk around the top and I toss them in the dishwasher whenever I think about it and it is convenient, so maybe once a month.
