Dishwasher Tablets

This is much the same as for washing machines but please, if you use tablets, make sure you us a full program and not an economy one as you may not fully dissolve the tablet on some economy programs as they are too short. This is a waste of your money, not to mention potentially clogging your dishwasher with a bit of un-dissolved tablet and the environmental concern. If you find bits of un-dissolved tablet in your dishwasher then go back to using soap powder and be happy with it because you are saving money and unnecessary pollution!

A typical dishwasher soap tabletThe only other thing to remember, again, is use a quality product that way if you have any problems you can often get help from the detergent manufacturer as well as the manufacturer that made the machine.

Almost all dishwasher engineers will always recommend separate products to my customers, yes I know it can be a bit more awkward and that the "all-in-one" tablet seems a boon but if you stop and think about it it's not really. I mean how can you regulate or change the dosage if you're using a tablet? You may well be simply throwing money away for no better results other than it's a bit easier to carry from the supermarket.

On this small island there are huge regional variations in water hardness and cleanliness and one size does not fit all in my opinion.
