Which dishwasher tablets are better (reviews)

reviews of dishwasher tabletsThe best-selling dishwasher detergent is a tablet that combines powder, rinse aid, and salt. They are easy to use and do their job effectively, but which ones are better? Some housewives have found the best option for themselves both in terms of price and quality of washing. Here's what they say about the most common pills.

Finish

When I bought the dishwasher, I immediately bought Finish All In One tablets. I am 100% satisfied with the quality of washing, no streaks or drops remain. But they are a little expensive, and therefore you have to catch moments when such tablets are sold at a discount. One box lasts me two months, it’s very convenient to use.

I tried Finish All In One tablets for the first time for the dishwasher when I bought them at a discount, almost half the price. I was not surprised that they coped with their task effectively. Since the tablets are expensive, I don’t use them for everyday washing. A simple and inexpensive powder washes mugs, plates and cutlery quite well, but I wash frying pans, baking trays and pots only with Finish, and it does the job with a bang. I also wash crystal and glass wine glasses with it. In addition, I use the rinse aid from Finish, I also really like it.

We have been using Finish products since purchasing the dishwasher. Here are just all the detergents separately: powder, salt, rinse aid. We recently bought Finish Classic tablets, but were not delighted with them. Although the cost of one wash is slightly less than using the products separately, the tablets do not always dissolve completely.As a result, the dishes remain dirty in some places. I have to turn the machine on again. Still, the quality of washing with tablets is noticeably lower; we cannot compare it with tablets from other manufacturers, since we have not tried it yet.

For your information! Products under the Finish brand are produced in different countries: Russia, Germany, Poland, Hungary, France, Ukraine. Surely the quality of such products will be different.

I won’t argue that using dishwasher tablets is very convenient, but I didn’t like the Calgonit Finish Quantum tablets. This may depend on the size of the dishwasher and the degree of soiling of the dishes. But mine Tea cups do not wash such tablets. The obvious disadvantages that I can list are the following:

  1. The dishes do not shine well, apparently the rinse aid included in the product does not cope with the task.
  2. With a short regime, the product is poorly washed off, forming a residue on the dishes.
  3. The worst thing is that after using these tablets from Finish, an unpleasant rotten smell appeared in the dishwasher. This has never happened in two years. The only thing that helped me get rid of it was changing the tablets to Somat, which was very surprising.

Apart from ease of use, I didn’t find any advantages, and therefore I was not satisfied with the tablets. But everyone has their own experience of using it, for me it turned out to be negative.

I bought Polish-made Finish Quantum tablets at a promotion and immediately decided to test them. The result was impressive. Glasses and glassware sparkle. There is nothing left on the pots, but I definitely wash them on intensive mode. And the most important thing is that tea stains on mugs no longer have to be washed by hand. As for the tablets themselves, they are packaged in self-dissolving packaging; there is no need to open anything. There were no cases where part of the tablet did not dissolve, and therefore I am very pleased with them.

I received Finish Quantum power gel tablets as a bonus when purchasing a dishwasher. It was very pleasant until the first dishwashing was over. When I opened the dishwasher door, a sharp, unpleasant smell of chemicals came out, and the idea arose to wash all the dishes. As for the quality of washing, only the plates were washed. The tea residue on the cups and the porridge burnt in the pan remained, even after being in water at 70 degrees. There were stains left on the glass jars. And with all this, their price is clearly too high; I definitely won’t buy them myself. I don’t know why other housewives like these pills, but for some reason many write positive reviews, which is strange to me.

Frau schmidt

I’ve been using a dishwasher for a long time, and therefore I’ve tried different detergents. One of them was tablets produced by France Frau schmidt. There is nothing supernatural in these tablets, the advantage of using them is that there is no need to add rinse aid and sprinkle salt. These tablets are reasonably priced. The dishes are washed efficiently, as they say, until they squeak. I don’t know why, but I like the “little mermaid” pills more, maybe because I’m used to them.

Tu-ti-tu

In my practice, Frau Schmidt dishwasher tablets were the first. The washing results were pleasing. The dishes were all clean and shiny, there is a difference from hand washing. There was no smell from the dishes or the machine. In general, I liked the product, and it is not as expensive as its competitors. But the composition contains phosphates, which is not environmentally friendly, so I would give the overall rating 4.

Fairy

fairy tabletsOver several years of using the dishwasher, I tried different detergents, including Finish and Fairy. I bought both Fairy All in one and Fairy Platinum. In my opinion, they do not have any special differences. The main thing is that you don’t need to buy additional salt and rinse aid, so we can say that their price is quite justified. The quality of washing is excellent, there were no problems. The tablets are very convenient to use, as they are wrapped in a soluble coating.

Fairy tablets attracted me at the price of $0.1 per piece. Having tried a lot of different tablets, Finish was the highest quality, but the result of washing with Fairy amazed me. The pots were washed even in the quick wash mode, the plates, glasses, everything just sparkled. There is a small disadvantage: if moisture gets into the box of tablets, they will stick together. Therefore, you need to take them with dry hands. Fairy really cleans up!

In general, I use cheaper dishwasher tablets, but when I saw the unusual packaging, I bought Fairy Platinum tablets. What seemed interesting was the tablet itself, which has a gel-like structure rather than a solid one. In addition, they give off a pleasant aroma, but it is not clear what it is needed for, because the tablets are intended for washing dishes... in general, it is a matter of taste. As for the quality of washing, only 3 points, there is no point in overpaying. After using the packaging, I switched back to my cheap ones, which wash better.

Amway tablets

fat-pig

Amway tabletsI got Amway dishwasher tablets as a gift from my uncle, who is a member of this marketing sect. As they say: even vinegar is sweet for free, so I decided to try it.I will say briefly - there are no advantages, only disadvantages:

  • are expensive;
  • fat is not washed off;
  • dried food is not washed;
  • Plaque on tea mugs cannot be washed off.

I prefer the cheap tablets from Auchan, but sometimes I use these ones and still get them for free.

SmartMasha

After purchasing the dishwasher, I immediately tried washing with the detergents separately, but I was not delighted with the powder. After studying reviews on the Internet, I decided to try Somat tablets, but one day a friend brought me one dishwasher tablet. It was a pill from Amway, I was already planning to buy one myself. And it’s good that she didn’t do this. The quality of washing with such tablets is terrible, simply disgusting. Don't believe the advertising, the tablet emits a smell. In addition, the dissolvable wrapper does not partially dissolve. This is such a “miracle” from Amway.

I tried different dishwashing detergents in the dishwasher. I will say the following about Amway. Yes, they do not contain phosphates, but this does not make them super high quality. You must use salt with these tablets, otherwise the cleaning quality will be disgusting. They are expensive, in general, they have no advantages.

Snowter

Snowter tabletsMams2sun

I have been using a dishwasher for 4 years now and have tried a lot of cleaning products. Good things are not cheap, but one day I still bought 5 in 1 Snowter tablets. Nothing good came of it. After washing, a white residue remains on the dishes, which is very clearly visible on black dishes. To put the tablet into the machine compartment, you need to print it out, since the packaging does not dissolve. Conclusion: a stingy person really pays twice.

Snowter tablets have only one advantage - they are cheap. But the most important thing is that they don’t know how to wash dishes.The dishes remain dirty after washing, even the forks have a residue, not to mention the tea residue on the cups and dirty pans. In short modes the tablet dissolves poorly. Complete dissolution is possible only in a 3-hour mode. I also did not notice the shine of the dishes that the manufacturer promises. In general, the pills are no good.

Tellmy

I mainly used dishwasher powder, but one day I decided to try Snowter tablets, especially since they are inexpensive. Overall I'm happy with the result. Metal utensils began to shine, glass was washed well, but with some products it was even better. In general, the quality of washing is normal; occasionally you can use such tablets. In my opinion, they deserve a rating of 4 points.

Tablets "Eared nannies"

Lyubov Sh.

tablets Eared nanniesI use products from Ushasty Nyan quite often. As for dishwasher tablets, they do not contain flavors or dyes, which is a plus. The quality of washing depends on the degree of soiling of the dishes. Traces of old tea are washed off only at high temperatures. The tablets work with other dishes even in fast mode. Several times after washing I observed a residue on the dishes, perhaps it was not the tablets. Overall, my rating is good.

Natachalipatova

The “eared nanny” tablets made a good impression on me. They are suitable for washing baby bottles and dishes. There is no smell left after washing. In addition, I like economical and not expensive ones.

Instead of Finish powder, I decided to try Eared Nanny tablets. I can say that the nanny turned out to be even better, there is no soap residue left behind. The dishes are washed perfectly, and it doesn’t matter what kind of dishwasher you have, it all depends on the powder. Glassware is washed especially perfectly, until it shines and squeaks. An excellent product at an affordable price.

Thus, we can say that until you try the product yourself and are convinced of its effectiveness, you will not know which is better. Some people like more expensive products, others prefer to use cheaper tablets. Therefore, experiment, look for what you like.
