Soooo... we have a dishwasher....

whats wrong with the tablets?? as we have used them for ages!!
Granted out ancient dishwasher died on wed and we need to shop for a new one!

Something about the rinse aid in the tablet causing over foaming issues. Some dishwashers don't cope with it especially in soft water areas. I personally have never had an issue with them.

I have been told that you shouldn't use the tablets if you are doing anything other than a normal wash. If you use them on a short or eco wash, the DW really struggles to get rid of all the foam. Apparently this can lead to the DW not performing as well and having a shorter lifespan...

ah ok thanks ladies

We use Eco store powder, it's the only organic one I've been able to find

We use eco store ones or bi carb and vinegar and yep, I fill up the bi carb bit and put around 1 tbsp of vinegar in the rinse cycle, sometimes I add a tsp of lemon juice too!

I use Finish powder - I get it from Big W - $16 for a 3kg (or is it 2kg) bottle, lasts for ages and ages.
