5.0 out of 5 stars Great cleaning power in a small package, no unplesant smell July 24, 2011

By Picky Parker

Size Name:32-Count

As you can see in my pictures these are very small (1 and 3/8 inches by 1 inch) but they work as well as any other dishwasher detergent I have used. One huge benefit is that they don't impart a chemically smell when the dishes come out of the washer. While it is supposed to be "orange scented" they don't really smell orange, just clean. I picked up some "fresh scent" ones and will review them at a later date. I have noticed a reduction of water spots on glass and plastic (although the dishwasher adds additional Jet Dry). Another benefit is that each tablet is individually packaged so you don't need to lift a large box of detergent, and if you rip the package down the middle you can pop it into the washer without touching it.

I have an older dishwasher and although it has two cups, one for a pre-wash and one for the main wash, you only add one of these into the main wash cup. I sometimes add a little left over powdered detergent to the prewash cups when I have heavily soiled dishes but it probably isn't even necessary.

These things really work!

4.0 out of 5 stars Smells fine February 7, 2012

By Lee VINE™ VOICE

Size Name:32-Count|Amazon Verified Purchase

[Good]

I was really worried about this smelling like urine as a highly rated reviewer described, but it smells fine. On a side note, I didn't think it smelled like oranges either, nor did it smell like tang. It just smelled like dish washer detergent.

You know exactly how many dishwasher cleanings you have left with these tablets unlike a liquid cleaner or box of powdered cleaner where you have to guess as the bottle or box gets lighter and lighter.

Strong cleaner: On my dishwasher, it does a great job at getting rid of food particles. I typically do not scrub most dishes before I place them into the dishwasher. Of course there are times after a dish wash session where I've found that I needed to pre-scrub, but these occasions are few. I believe your mileage will vary depending on your dishwasher model. Our dishwasher is a mid-range Kitchen Aid model.

Individually wrapped unlike another product from finish, making it impossible to break tablets that you're not going to use. Some finish products have water soluble wrapping the powder tablets. On many occasions I have broken this wrapping. When you think about it, your hands are going to be wet after loading a dishwasher so it's most likely a common problem except for people who remember to put the water soluble tablet inside the dishwasher before doing anything else. This particular product doesn't have this problem.

[Bad]

Individually wrapped unlike another product from finish, making annoying to open at times when your hands are wet from loading the dishwasher. The wrapping is slipper and they didn't make it easy enough to open with wet fingers.

Strong cleaner: some of our stainless steel cookware look worn out after a wash. It may also be due to the quality of the cookware. Not all of our cookware is of good quality, though even the better quality cookware's instruction manuals have warnings about washing them with harsh powdered dishwasher detergents.

5.0 out of 5 stars Won Over Completely! January 10, 2013

By Erin L. Lowmaster VINE™ VOICE

Size Name:20 Count|Amazon Vine™ Review (What's this?)

I'm pretty picky when it comes to what I like to use to get my dishes clean in the dishwasher. I've been through my fair share and have yet to come across one as great as the Finish Powerball Tablets. These tablets have done a wonderful job to getting my dishes sparkling clean without leaving spots or any undesired residue or food build up behind!

I've baked meatloaf and birthday cake just this last week and decided to see if these PowerBall Tabs could do the job it claimed. And to my surprise each pan came out looking as good as new! The powerful cleaners have also done a great job in removing tea and coffee stains from my favorite mugs! Our wine glasses have also come out spotless with no cloudy film that often is left behind when running them through the wash!

Each of the Powerballs are individually wrapped which makes for easy storage and the wrapper keeps the appearance hidden from children that might think they were candy or something. To use you simply open them, throw away the wrapper, place the tablet inside the Main Dishwasher Detergent Dispenser And Close.

The tablets are safe to use on china as well as glassware. The scent is very light and not overpowering in the least bit. I appreciate that because who really wants to drink out of a cup or eat off a plate that smells like a cleaner? Not me. Overall, I'm very happy with the product and would highly recommend it to other looking for a optimal way to clean their dishes in the wash. Great for everyday and even better for those busy baking days when everything seems to be caked on with something you would rather not soak for hours and scrub later!
