Finish Dual Action Dishwasher Cleaner: Fight Grease & Limescale, Fresh, 8.45oz

This did clean my dishwasher well but it’s a bit awkward to use you have to put it in upside down hard to keep it straight actually at end of last cycle just cut small hole so rest of cleaner. Came out

This works great and we have it on subscribe and save so it shows up when we need it

This is a must have! We have hard water issues and it cleaned a couple years of build up and it made it smell so amazing !! We have now signed up for auto ship

We have two Bosch dishwashers in our kitchen. They are 20 years old and generally have done a great job over the years; however, they have been taking longer and longer to complete their cycles because of hard-water deposits on the heating elements. In most (or all) Bosch dishwashers, the heating element is inaccessible (which is great since no plastics can fall on it and melt), so its not possible to manually clean or inspect it. Hard-water minerals and other gunk build up on the heaters over time and decrease their heating ability while taking longer and using more energy to get through the cycle. I didnt take before images, but you can see how clean and sparkling everything is in my after images. The filter plug is image two, and this was after I degreased it. The fine mesh screen did not come fully clean with just the Finish cleaner. We used this cleaner as directed and the dishwasher is sparkling clean inside, smells very clean and fresh, and the racks glide in and out much more easily than before. I did not realize that the racks were resisting movement, but now that they are clean, they move with almost no effort even when fully loaded. The main stainless filter screen on the bottom of the tank did come sparkling clean, but the final filter screen did not. Its made of some sort of very fine plastic and still appealed to be somewhat clogged with grease, minerals, food debris, or perhaps a combination of them all after using the Finish dishwasher cleaner. I had to separately remove the filter and use a strong degreaser on it to get it totally clean, so next time I will do this ahead of using the Finish dishwasher cleaner product. I cant complain after 20 years of use and never cleaning the filter. I hope that by starting with a clean filter and with regular use of the Finish cleaner, it will not be necessary to clean the filters manually. The dishes are spotlessly clean now and the cycle is running about 20 minutes less than before cleaning, so we are saving time and money -- probably enough to offset the the cost of the Finish cleaner. For those who do not like scents, the product does have a fresh, but lingering, scent. After 2 cycles, the scent was gone, but the dishwasher is cleaning and working as if it were new. I never imagined that I would have to wash my dishwasher, but since I apparently do, Cinderfella here recommends this Finish dishwasher cleaner. PS -- one item of concern is this from the product listing: Do not mix with chlorine bleach or any other product as harmful fumes may result. We use Jet-dry rinse agent regularly, so there was some of that injected during the cycle. I assume no harmful fumes resulted. There is no way to turn off the rinse agent injector and no way to tell if its completely empty. Perhaps the vendor should address this concern and indicate if there is an issue with using Jet-Dry with the cleaner.

Good to know I can order these from Amazon only because they are hard to find in the stores most of the time. They really leave the dish washer smelling clean and fresh. I rated a 4 because it seems to be quite smaller than the ones they sell in the stores.

Good results.

I noticed that my dishwasher was having trouble getting dishes completely clean and was a little upset since it was only a couple months old. Looked around and found that calcium deposits were starting to build up. I ordered this in hopes that it would help alleviate the issues I was facing and was more than pleased. You take a sticker off and put this bad boy on the bottom rack. Easy peasy. After running this product I saw that every bit of calcium was gone and my dishwasher was back to cleaning effectively. I have this on subscribe and save monthly and my dishwasher stays fresh and clean.

Worked as described.

I have received at least four or five of these. I am not sure if it is an issue with my dishwasher as it isn’t always the most perfect at cleaning my dishes. The wax top doesn’t always melt. The last one I received, I must have run the dishwasher at least 3 or 4 times before I finally removed the wax on top. When the bottle actually empties, man does it work great. It kills the smell and my dishwasher looks way more shiny. I am always happy with the results when I can actually get it to drain into my dishwasher.
