I love cooking, and I cook every day for me and my wife (home office since 2008 helps there), and I love hearing about new things. I have the book "The Science of Cooking" which was fascinating.

The only things you can’t put in there are knives, as well as nonstick and wooden items.

Also, both ceramic and carbon steel pans, and my SS bowls would IIRC lose their shine if machine washed.

I guess I don’t mind 10 minutes of cleanup instead of ~4 that much when cooking itself is a 30-60 minute thing.

Absolutely, this is a personal thing. I've found myself not buying things that are incompatible with the machine as much as possible so I don't really have that issue

And some things I just toss in there anyway. My Wusthof knifes for instance are not carbons steel and don't have wooden handles, and my machine has a neat spot that secures it perfectly upright so the edge isn't touching anything. I have been doing this for years and observed no noticeable downside.
