I tried this after a friend told me to do so and I loved it!!!! Everything comes up clean and shiny also as a great scent.

On my quest to becoming a more Eco friendly, Earth minded mommy (as per my daughters request), I wanted to see if all the hype about using "hand made" product is just as good as far as "getting the job done right" but "better for the world and us".

SO, enter - Powdered Dishwashing (dish washer machine) soap. Came in a "non wasteful plastic zip lock", packaged in previously used packaging.. All within the "save the earth" type of mantra.. So, that was fabulous in my opinion. Why worry about something your going to throw out anyway. Huh?

The baggie had very detailed instructions on recommended us. Very impressive! Only 1 TBSP per sitting, I leave it on my normal “Consume as much water as possible “setting. Lol. And it did fantastic. Then I tried it out on the “conserve” settings: Cold water only, and open the door to air dry. I had a slight problem with water spots, but, as she stated on the label, simple addy white vinegar to the RINSE spot (where the rinse aid goes) and vuala.. Crystal clear.. I was definitely surprised to see that the dishes came out clean and the water smelled fresh.. As I might add, with conventional product i often found a "stagnant stench" coming from my dishwasher. Anyway, I am very impressed and will continue to buy this product.
