Powder Description Dishwasher Finish

Finish products for all types of dishwashers are, without exaggeration, the most popular because the most publicized. Some manufacturers of dishwashers recommend Finish as the best and high-quality product. What is the advantage of the powder of this company, let's figure it out by looking at its composition:

  • salts of tripolyphosphoric acid account for about 30% of all substances, it is thanks to them that fats are removed;
  • oxygen-containing bleach is not more than 5% and is necessary to remove tea plaque and other contaminants;
  • surfactants for foam formation;
  • enzymes - enzymes that help break down protein and carbohydrate spots at low temperatures;
  • flavorings.

In general, the usual composition, in which, by the way, there are no phosphates, positioned today, as not safe compounds.

In addition to the above, the powder may contain a special substance called the manufacturer StainSoaker, which literally translates as “stain remover”. Apparently thanks to the presence of this stain remover, the powder copes with persistent stains of lipstick and coffee. Also, this substance penetrates deep into dried spots, dissolving them, making dishes clean.powder finish

The first Finish powder to appear on our market was brought from Germany. Currently, there are powder packages from Denmark, Poland, Finland. Powders are packed in plastic boxes of different weights: 1; 1.5; 2; 2.5 kg Here are some examples:

How to use

powder dishwasherAny powder for the dishwasher, including the Finish, must be dosed, and not filled up by eye. To do this, use a measuring cup or spoon. 20-25 g of product is enough for one load. The powder compartment in many dishwashers is located on the inside of the door. In the photo, the compartment is indicated by the symbol "D".

If it is necessary to use the pre-soaking function, another 5 g of powder can be poured into the compartment marked with the symbol “C”. This dosage is averaged, suitable for full-size machines at full load. To find out how much powder is needed to wash the dishes, experiment, taking into account the load on the machine, the degree of contamination of the dishes and the hardness of tap water, because all of them can be different, which means that the dosage of the powder will also be different. It may turn out that in a table dishwasher it will be enough to pour 15 g of the product. Do not worry, after just a few washes, you will automatically pour the right amount of funds.

It is very important to use along with the powder regenerating salt and rinse aid. Salt will help restore the work of the ion exchanger to soften water. A rinse is needed so that the dishes get a shine, dries better, there are no stains and drips.

Important! Only a combination of all three products powder + rinse + salt from the Finish will give the best effect of washing dishes in the dishwasher.

Is it worth it to apply: consumer opinion

You decide whether to buy Finish powder or not.Once such a powder, we think we have tried everything. What consumers say about him, we found such reviews.

Eleanor, Khabarovsk

For four years of operating the dishwasher, my husband and I tried various detergents. The main selection criterion for us is the price and the lack of taste on the dishes. I like to use pills, but sometimes we buy Finish powder, 1 kg.

The powder packaging is very convenient, pour the powder into the eye, focusing on the marks on the compartment. It is difficult to say how much one kilogram is enough, since we alternate with tablets. The washing result is excellent, there is no aftertaste on the dishes. With the powder we use only salt.

Buying a dishwasher, I thought that I would use it very rarely. But it was not there that I turn it on every day, sometimes twice. At first I used pills for washing, but over time it became clear that the expense is crazy, but they cost a lot. I decided to try the powder, and of course, as ordered by advertising, I chose Finish, which is recommended by many manufacturers of dishwashers. Packaging 2.5 kg with a lemon smell cost me about 700 rubles.

It is very convenient to pour the powder into the compartment, as there is a special nozzle on the package, in addition, for this the manufacturer does not pour the full package, leaving room for free powder pouring. Despite the fact that the powder is flavored, the dishes and the dishwasher after it smell nothing.

I pour the powder into the compartment from the heart, after one attempt to save money, I had to wash the dishes with my hands. Therefore, I decided that you can’t save on the amount of powder. Almost always I use the long mode at 70 degrees, the dishes are washed well. The only thing that is not completely washed is the bottom of the pan from the multicooker - a white coating remains. There was no raid anywhere else. As for the consumption, the third month of using a bottle weighing 2.5 kg went, about half is left, probably another two months is enough. I advise everyone, although a little expensive, and I myself will try some other powder for comparison.

Danochka, Kazan

For two years now I have been using miracle technology - a dishwasher, which I simply adore. Today I decided to share my impressions of Finish powder for different types of machines. It was bought by me by chance, at a discount. In general, I did not use the Finish mark before, although most owners of dishwashers prefer it. Finish products are very expensive, there are tools for cars of other brands that are cheaper and wash no worse.

I bought the Finish powder only because of the big discount. 2.5 kg cans lasted for several months. A powder nozzle is provided for pouring the powder, which for some reason opens very poorly. The washing quality is excellent, the powder does not leave a smell, and this is important. In general, I was pleased with the purchase, and therefore if there is still a special offer, I will definitely buy a Finish for washing machines.

In conclusion, we note that the use of powder for dishwashers is much more profitable than the use of tablets, even the quality of washing, as consumers say better. Which brand to use the powder, choose for yourself, it will be the Finish or some other, the main thing is that he copes with his task.
