Lemi ShineDishwater Detergent Additive, Super Concentrated, 12 oz

We bought a new "water miser" dishwasher 3 years ago when we replaced all of our major appliances as part of our home remodel. We bought a Bosch based on online reviews and a Consumer Report rating. The problem with these water efficient dishwashers is the filters becoming dirty more often than the old intensive water using dishwashers. This was disappointing for us as this was not a cheap dishwasher. We kept recalling how well our 30-35 year old dishwasher cleaned everything we put into it. We had been cleaning the filter about every 3-4 weeks. Film began forming after a few washes. We found a few pieces of silverware that didn't get fully clean when the dishwasher was quite full. The heavy duty setting did not make a difference with the increasing film on our glasses. The pre-wash container on our washer only accepts liquid and what we were using was not improving the thoroughness of the wash.When we use this product we fill about 1/4 to of the detergent container with Cascade and then fill about 1/4 more with this product. We filled it completely and put the dishwasher through one cycle while empty. The film on all the surfaces of the dishwasher was cleaned off with this one cycle. After a couple of months using this product all the film on our glasses was gone. We have had far fewer (1-2) instances of silverware not being completely clean and it has involved spoons that stick together. This product has enabled our new dishwasher to clean as well as the old one. The squeaky clean feeling of the glasses and dishes has returned.The new water saving dishwashers don't clean as well as the water hogs. Considering the drought in the western U.S. we have to use less water. Use this product in your dishwashers if you use a new water saving model or if your old dishwasher doesn't clean well. It will make a significant difference and you will be pleased.

The description says 12 bottles for $27.10. I only received one bottle. I see other customers have had the same issue. Someone filling the orders isn’t doing a very good job at Amazon. I contacted customer service and they are supposed to be sending out a replacement order with the 12 bottles in it. I told the customer service representative I hope they send the correct amount this time. His response was “don’t worry”. Well I am worried! I’m not paying $27.10 for one bottle. That’s just crazy!!! I will believe it when I see it. I will update my review once the reorder comes in. That part of the review was on Amazons fulfillment of the order properly. The product itself works great. I have been using it in my dishwasher for probably 15 years. I put a tablespoon of it in with a tablespoon of powdered detergent in the dispenser cup and my dishes come out sparkling. No more hard water stains. Plus the inside of my dishwasher is always clean. I highly recommend this to everyone I know.Update….the reorder was also only one bottle. Do not order this from Amazon. Unfortunately they can’t send out the right amount in the order. I got a refund and will not be purchasing this again.

As with everybody else, my Dishwasher hasn't been leaving the dishes sparkling, or even barely clean. At first I thought it was the washer or the water, but after learning about the removal of TSPs from our water I decided to fight back (I am not connected to a sewer system to I didn't feel bad about it). So I bought a box of TSP (here at Amazon) and a pack of Lemi Shine, and I began using the two together, one spoon of each, with my loads, in addition to the Cascade detergent and shine agent.At first I noticed an improvement, but it took about ten loads to really make a full effect, since apparently the dishwasher interior was full of whatever was leaving my dishes foggy and it took a while to dissolve it fully. But after a week or so, wow, what a difference! Now my dishes are clean and shiny, just as they were before I moved to the US from a country where TSPs are legal (and our rivers dead, by the way).It continued to be the case for a while, though when I ran out of Lemi Shine I continued with just the TSP (and the regular shine and detergent) for about two weeks. After two weeks my dishes are still not foggy, but they are coming out with some food stains. So my conclusion so far is that Lemi Shine does make a huge improvement along with TSP to the cleaning effectiveness of a good detergent. I am still to make the test with Lemi Shine alone to see if the TSPs are needed to remove the fogginess, but I can safely say that Lemi Shine is extremely effective as a cleaner additive.
