I have a Miele Dishwasher that needs this salt. I ran it for some time with the "salt" light on, and got some problems (Drain/Intake light) and the cycle would stop mid cycle, and had to be restarted.

Since adding the salt, Dishwasher has worked fine. The salt is required for the built in water softener. I can't get it locally, and this was the best deal I could find.

even after cleaning our miele dishwasher the machine doesn't work very well (especially the silver ware and cups often don't get clean) so i thought adding this somat salt will make a difference and ordered it. using it now for a couple of weeks (the machine runs probably 2 times per week) i see no difference to the regular salt that i bought before at the supermarket. i don't say it is a bad product it just doesn't seem to make an impact in any way.

Perfect for the Miele fanatic. Impossible to find elsewhere. Very necessary to get the full worth from your Miele D/W

I'm in the Dallas area and there are a few Miele dealers around, but ask them for the dishwasher salt and they give you a blank stare! It's nearly impossible to find the Mile branded salt around here and when I did find it (45 miles away) it was $14. I have never seen anything like this in a supermarket around here either. This product is the exact same as the Miele branded box for a better price. So thankful for Amazon!

Tips- NEVER use table salt or water softening system bulk salt from hardware stores in your Miele; they don't dissolve the same way making them useless and they may have additives that can ruin your Miele's softening system. Also if you are seeing poor performance from your detergent (Powder, gel etc) then change brands! I have used many different ones and seen differences brand to brand. I am currently using the Cascade Complete All in 1 pacs and have been pleased. I have the DW detergent setting at "2 in 1 Tab" which disables the DW's rinse aid system.

This is a very good offer for dishwasher salt, and is less expensive than I could obtain it locally. There is a Bosch dishwasher salt that is slightly more expensive but contains about 10% more salt. This is a better value than the Bosch salt. It works well in my dishwasher.

Without it, my dishes do not dry even with Jet Dry. I am glad that Amazon carries it, because I can't find it in grocery stores.

My crystal comes out so spot free and beautiful. The silverware is shiny and spot free. I have been using ever since I purchased the DW during our kitchen remodel and have never regretted our purchase. The absolute best product for the best DW!

Didn't think there would be much to say about this salt, but it really did make a difference for my Miele dishwasher. The dishes are coming out with fewer water spots. I recommend it. Couldn't find it elsewhere and FactoryDirect got it right out to me.
