5.0 out of 5 stars Keeps dishwasher nice and clean, February 18, 2010

I add 1 tablespoon to each dishwasher load. The citric acid keeps the mineral deposits in check and the glasses sparkling. Our city water is extremely hard, and the spinners in the dishwasher would get clogged with deposits. Not any longer! I also use it as a neutralizer when shampooing the rugs, but you have to rinse with water afterwards, or it stays a little sticky.
I try to use simple solutions to keep the home clean. This is a safe way to clean.

4.0 out of 5 stars As Expected, January 2, 2008

By 

Jessica (Alabama) - See all my reviews

I purchased this product for use in a homemade dishwashing detergent recipe, and it has served its purpose. It tends to clump together over time, but that is probably because it is stored under the kitchen sink (high moisture area). Be forewarned that the shipping can be incredibly slow - my citric acid arrived on the evening of the last day in the estimated arrival date range.

This is exactly what I was looking for to keep my fruit from turning brown. And the price was great.
