Finish Dual Action Dishwasher Cleaner

Our dishwasher started smelling musty even though we ran it regularly, and dishes weren’t coming out as spotless as they used to. I ran one bottle of this on an empty cycle expecting minimal results, but I was wrong — the smell was completely gone afterward, and I could tell there was buildup being flushed out just from how the rinse water looked. It’s simple to use: just pop the bottle upside down in the utensil basket and run a hot, empty cycle. No scrubbing, no mess, no weird fumes lingering in the kitchen afterward like some cleaners leave behind. Since that first deep clean, dishes and glasses have come out clearer with way less spotting, which tells me the limescale buildup (we have hard water) was actually a bigger issue than I realized. I’ve been using one bottle monthly as routine maintenance, and four bottles covering close to a year’s worth of cleanings is genuinely convenient — one less thing to remember to reorder. If you’ve got a dishwasher that’s lost its shine, smells off, or just isn’t cleaning like it used to, this is a cheap, low-effort fix before you assume you need a repair or replacement. Highly recommend making it a monthly habit.

​I am honestly obsessed with this specific dishwasher cleaner. I've purchased the product in the store many times over, but appreciate this four pack. I have been using it twice a month because I just love the results so buying the four pack just makes sense! (Plus the price is great) The first thing you’ll notice is the scent. It leaves my dishwasher smelling incredibly clean, and the best part is that the clean smell actually lasts for a few days. The quality of the clean is top-tier; I have a full stainless steel interior and it comes out sparkling and completely spot-free every single time even with our incredibly hard water. I've never had an issue with the container not opening during the clean cycle and it's always empty when it's done! In terms of performance, it really delivers. My dishes have been coming out spotless, which I attribute to this and the other finish products I use. One thing I’ve noticed is that while I always clean the filter before using this, the filter itself doesn’t get as much of that gross, scummy buildup like it used to. It feels like it’s actually helping maintain the machine, not just cleaning it. For the price, this 4-pack is a fantastic value for your money. It’s such an easy to use way to keep everything clean and running right. If you want your kitchen to smell SO fresh and your dishwasher to look brand new, this is it!!

Very happy with this product and purchase. Works perfectly for keeping my dishwasher clean and running smoothly. The bottle size is perfect and doesn’t interfere with running in dishwasher. And after using it leaves my dishwasher smelling clean and my dishes afterward shiny and gunk free. It’s recommended to be used every three months but I run every other month. Works perfectly for me.

We have two Bosch dishwashers in our kitchen. They are 20 years old and generally have done a great job over the years; however, they have been taking longer and longer to complete their cycles because of hard-water deposits on the heating elements. In most (or all) Bosch dishwashers, the heating element is inaccessible (which is great since no plastics can fall on it and melt), so it's not possible to manually clean or inspect it. Hard-water minerals and other gunk build up on the heaters over time and decrease their heating ability while taking longer and using more energy to get through the cycle. I didn't take before images, but you can see how clean and sparkling everything is in my after images. The filter plug is image two, and this was after I degreased it. The fine mesh screen did not come fully clean with just the Finish cleaner. We used this cleaner as directed and the dishwasher is sparkling clean inside, smells very clean and fresh, and the racks glide in and out much more easily than before. I did not realize that the racks were resisting movement, but now that they are clean, they move with almost no effort even when fully loaded. The main stainless filter screen on the bottom of the tank did come sparkling clean, but the final filter screen did not. It's made of some sort of very fine plastic and still appealed to be somewhat clogged with grease, minerals, food debris, or perhaps a combination of them all after using the Finish dishwasher cleaner. I had to separately remove the filter and use a strong degreaser on it to get it totally clean, so next time I will do this ahead of using the Finish dishwasher cleaner product. I can't complain after 20 years of use and never cleaning the filter. I hope that by starting with a clean filter and with regular use of the Finish cleaner, it will not be necessary to clean the filters manually. The dishes are spotlessly clean now and the cycle is running about 20 minutes less than before cleaning, so we are saving time and money -- probably enough to offset the the cost of the Finish cleaner. For those who do not like scents, the product does have a fresh, but lingering, scent. After 2 cycles, the scent was gone, but the dishwasher is cleaning and working as if it were new. I never imagined that I would have to wash my dishwasher, but since I apparently do, Cinderfella here recommends this Finish dishwasher cleaner. PS -- one item of concern is this from the product listing: "Do not mix with chlorine bleach or any other product as harmful fumes may result." We use Jet-dry rinse agent regularly, so there was some of that injected during the cycle. I assume no harmful fumes resulted. There is no way to turn off the rinse agent injector and no way to tell if it's completely empty. Perhaps the vendor should address this concern and indicate if there is an issue with using Jet-Dry with the cleaner.

This dishwasher cleaner works absolutely amazing. Very easy to use you just peel off the top stick it in the dishwasher and let it run. The dishwasher came out very clean and smelled amazing.

This did a phenomenal job cleaning the dishwasher. Even if you clean the filter regularly and use Jet Dry, the arms that whip the water around can get limescale or other buildup that causes less than clean glasses. Not only does this clean the machine, but the scent is really nice!

Works very well at cleaning, however, your dishwasher will really smell like the extremely powerful and slightly offputtingfragrance for several washings. It’s a little concerning, and I wish they didn’t make the scent. A truly clean scent would smell like nothing!

Use these once a month to keep my dishwasher fresh & clean. It always looks great when it’s done. This is so easy to use and a great value for the money. It’s effective and does what it’s advertised to do.

Tones and tones of foams! Dishwasher are not desgined to drain foams! after 10 times rinsing the foams still stay on the top In the end I have to scoop out the foam little by little, with a spoon....

Cleans my diswasher like nobody's business. Will buy again

Deja un olor riquísimo y una sensación de limpieza en el lavavajillas. Me encantó.

Great to keep the Dish Washer smell free. After using it and completing the cycle, I will run on separate cycle without dishes to remove any remaining Cleaner.
