I have bought the essay as a replacement since my first is accidentally landed with the plastic part in the dishwasher and then has given up the ghost. Works for appropriate use but perfect, very convenient also to quickly something froth on the stove eg zabaglione.
But: The translation inside is not stainless. ONLY the whisk attachment into the dishwasher. In the white plastic part not allow water to penetrate the clean, so do not even immerse or rinse under running water.
