Nellie's Dishwasher Powder - Tough on Food Residue, Plant-Based Ingredients, Spotless Clean, High-Efficiency Dishwashing Solution - 100 Scoop Tin

I bought this because our tap water is pretty hard, and most dishwasher pods either leave a cloudy film or don’t dissolve properly. After using Nellie’s for a couple of weeks, I’m honestly impressed. One small scoop is enough, and it actually dissolves fully, even on the quick wash cycle. The biggest difference for me has been the glassware. With other detergents, I’d usually get those annoying white spots or streaks, but this powder leaves everything clear. Plates come out clean, and cutlery looks brighter too. I still give anything with baked-on food a quick rinse first, but that’s pretty normal with hard water anyway. The powder can clump a bit if you leave the lid loose, so I keep the tin closed tight and it’s fine. The tin itself is solid and nicer than the plastic tubs most detergents come in. Overall, for hard water, this has been one of the best detergents I’ve tried. Simple, unscented, and it actually does the job.

Its so hard to find a good more natural dish cleaner. I was using clean people and I loved them. However, they use plastic for their pods and dont have a powder only option. I got tired of buying them and cutting the plastic off. They say the plastic melts and is safe but it clogs my dish washer. Also I dont want harsh chemicals on my kids cups and things. This brand doesnt leave a film and is a really good product. I think it cleans my dishes well and the price is agreeable. Is it more money than powders at the store, yes but is it worth my piece of mind and knowing we are safe for using a more natural product, yes. I love this tin BTW! Its just a little hard to open, but I have small children so that's fine. I keep it locked away anyways. I want to buy the soap butter dish as well and switch my liquid soap too. I will be buying as long as they are selling. Great products!

This Made In Canada product gets the dishes sparkling -- using a very small amount of soap, so better for the environment. It removed all those annoying coffee stains from cups -- and less soap into our streams and oceans.

Final review: Definitely made a mistake. Dishes NOT clean at all. There were streaks still and glasses all foggy and I could feel stuff on the plates. Thought maybe I didn't put in enough product and tried again with an extra rinse this time. Made no difference. Through in some regular detergent the 3rd wash and dishes finally clean. So VERY disappointed in the product. Too heavy to bother returning. Have been scouping it into dirty frying pans as an initial soak - not doing much good there either. Hard to get a good picture of something shiny but here they are, first after 3 washes with Nellie's and 2nd - 1 wash with other stuff. First Review: There is no scent as such, but it has a very mild smell (soda-like). Unlike others, there were a few things it didn't clean that well in the dishwasher, but I'm not sure if it's the soap or my dishwasher. I like it way better than the dishwasher soap I used that when you opened the door this horrid smell came out, so I'm happy with it. I'll see how it keeps doing in subsequent washes.

Love this product! Gets our dishes sparkling clean. We have ordered this product multiple times and haven't ever had an issue. This time however, the powder spilled out the container while shipping to us. Most of the powder was in the shipping box and some had spilled out of the box along the way. Our previous containers were wrapped with a tamper resistant seal that prevented the lid from opening, but this one wasn't. Not sure if it was a fluke or if this will be an ongoing issue.
