Dishwasher detergent??
Help a noob out... Are there any commercially available dishwasher detergents that really clean your dishes? If I use a conventional detergent I can put my dishes in without rinsing and they sparkle. Everything I have tried as an alternitive leaves residue behind even if I prewash. I feel like if I have to completely wash everything there is no point to running the dishwasher at all. Do you use something that actually works? TIA
Re: Dishwasher detergent??
Ecover.
ETA: It doesn't get off the baked on cheese when DH makes nachos and bread dough from the food processor. We have to pre-rinse those things but everything else goes in as is.

so far the ecover tabs have worked best. i did not like 7th generation powder. white powder stains were left over everything. i would have to put a good bit of vinegar in the bottom to stop that.
hmm interesting thread, I really like the Seventh Generation powder! everything is so clean....maybe it depends on your dishwasher?

We like the 7th Generation liquid detergent. Powders don't really work in our machine.
We do have to run vinegar through once or twice a month though, we have awfully hard water here.
This. Works for us!

Also make sure you clean your machine on a regular basis.
