Review and characteristics of Finish All in Turbo 1 tablets

finish_alles_in_1_turboFinish All in Turbo 1 is called by professionals the master of quick washing. And, indeed, these tablets were specially designed for fast modes (30-40 minutes) of washing dishes at a water temperature within 400S. At first glance, it seems that in such a short time and at such a low temperature it is impossible to wash dried dirt from the plates.

Here, firstly, you need to take into account that you can use the pre-soaking mode, many machines “know” this mode, and only then set up a quick wash. And secondly, the super-powerful formula of Finish All in Turbo 1 tablets can get rid of dirt in 20-30 minutes in warm water.

Review and characteristics of Finish Classic tablets

Finish classicFinish Classic are the simplest tablets in this series. They do not contain any other components except the powder. Simply put, this is the well-known Finish powder for dishwashers in tablet form. It’s certainly more convenient to use, but you’ll have to pay extra for the form; it’s cheaper to buy the product in powder. You can read more about the powder form of Finish Classic in the article Dishwasher powder - store-bought or homemade.

Finish Classic tablets contain a patented Stain Soaker component, whose task is to break down dried dirt and remove it from dishes, but judging by consumer reviews, its effectiveness leaves much to be desired. However, Finish Classic has its own “strong point”; the product removes tea and coffee stains from ceramic and glassware well. Tablets are sold in packs of 14, 28, 48, 56, 70 and 90 pieces. The average price of 1 tablet is $0.1.

To summarize, we note that Finish brand dishwasher tablets are designed to significantly improve the quality of automatic dishwashing. There are quite a few types of tablets and each type has its own specifics and cost.. It’s up to you to decide whether to use these tablets or not; independent experts are not inclined to idealize Finish brand products; they also have drawbacks. You have to try it and decide whether this remedy is “for you” or not!
