Great Value Original Dishwasher Pacs, Fresh Scent, 115 Count

I bought this 115 count box of dishwasher pacs because I run my dishwasher just about every day. Big family, lots of dishes, and I was tired of buying the expensive name brand stuff that costs twice as much for half the amount. The Great Value version seemed worth a shot. The first thing I noticed when I opened the box is the smell. It's a very strong fresh scent, kind of a lemon laundry detergent type of smell, not a subtle clean scent. My whole kitchen smelled like it for a few minutes after I pulled out a pac. The pacs themselves are individually wrapped in a dissolvable film and they feel mostly dry to the touch, not sticky or crumbly. In the dishwasher, these work fine for everyday loads. I put in a full load of plates, bowls, glasses, and silverware with some dried on pasta sauce and oatmeal residue. Everything came out clean without any scrubbing needed beforehand. The glasses were clear and spot free, the plates didn't have any film, and even the forks with stuck on cheese came out looking good. Here's what surprised me. The fresh scent doesn't rinse away completely. My glasses and plastic containers came out of the dishwasher smelling like the pac. Not a bad smell necessarily, but I could taste it slightly when I drank water from a freshly washed glass. I ran a rinse cycle with just water and that helped a little but didn't totally fix it. If you're sensitive to fragrances, this might bother you. The 115 count box is huge and takes up a lot of cabinet space. The pacs stay fresh in the bag inside the box but I keep it sealed with a rubber band just in case. I'm hoping these pacs don't lose their cleaning power halfway through the box. Some generic dishwasher products seem to work great for the first month then get weird. So far after a couple of weeks, still cleaning fine. Good for anyone who wants clean dishes on a budget. Just be ready for the fragrance to stick around.

Great Value Original Dishwasher Pacs are bargain priced and work as well as premium brands. I've purchased these many times and will continue to do so a long as the purchase price holds steady.

I have previously used this product and like it. The reason I bought it online was to meet the minimum purchase price of my whitening strips in order to avoid paying shipping fee fees.

These are easy to pop in and clean dishes well. I have not noticed any residue and we are almost through the entire box. The lid on the box is great and always pods to easily store under our sink. We will be purchasing again.

i tend to use way too much detergent so these pods are great for me.....simple detergent that cleans fantastic.....i don't have to worry about buying more for 115 days 👍🏻

We have a countertop dishwasher in our RV that's like all top rack for cleaning and power. This is the one that works best since the gel and other pods leave residue or don't get everything clean.

These clean well not excellent but really well especially for the price. Compared to name brands they are just as good in my opinion. Yeah there is sometimes water marks and left on spots, really depends on how big the load is and how you load the dishwasher. And. That is the same with name brands.

This was a good value, switch on and off with other brands so not sure if they if these work better than others. I think they are all about the same in my opinion. I would buy them again.

These affordable dishwasher pods are a solid pick for most households. They're not perfect, but for the cost, they deliver some of the best value you can find.

This item is a hit a miss so the only thing I do not like about this item is it does leave residue so it's best to get a proper spot cleaner to put into your dishwasher but it is a great value for how many pods you get it's 115
