Update: yeah, this pitcher is just entirely too fragile. I’ve babied the replacement I purchased and in less than 4 months it’s already got a small crack developing at the handle. A real disappointment. 

Original review:  The photo is of the insert that comes with this pitcher. The three cracks in the pitcher that came with the first time I put the pitcher in the dishwasher indicates this is a lie. They should stop including materials indicating that the pitcher is dishwasher safe.
