Dishwater Detergent Additive, Super Concentrated, 12 oz

This stuff is incredible. I live in the city and have hard water. This helps keeps my stainless steel dishwasher clean and keeps the build up off my dishes. I do still have to use rinse aid and Platinum pods, but I notice a big difference when I don't use this product.

This was recommended to me by a dishwasher installer. It works great, I haven't seen any white powder on my glasses or dishes since I started using this product. I use almost a teaspoon per load. Very effective. Highly recommend!

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.

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.

We have lived in Burbank and Glendale, CA for many years and unfortunately everywhere we've lived we've dealt with REALLY hard water. When I say REALLY hard, I'm not exaggerating. Hard water is generally considered anything over 180 ppm (on the mg/L scale). Here in Glendale, we average between 200 and 500 ppm depending on how far you are from the treatment plant. We had tried pretty much every additive available in our Hotpoint HDA3400 dishwasher. We started by doing the manufacturer recommended rinses and then moved onto trying vinegar and cleaning the machine with CLR. That helped a little bit, but really didn't improve it enough. For those of you like us, we had resorted to hand washing dishes with steel wool to try to scrape all of the mineral deposits off of our dishware. I was beginning to investigate inline water softeners that could be installed under the sink, but we have a fairly small kitchen and loosing more storage space to hardware like that wasn't something that I was looking forward to doing. I found a review of Lemi Shine on a pinterest post where someone said it really worked for them. Being a big fan of the scientific method, I figured I would try a little experiment. I loaded up the dishwasher and used our normal powdered Cascade and ran it. As expected everything came out with a fine film just like it always did. Without moving anything, I followed the Lemi Shine instructions and added it to the main closed detergent cup and added our normal Cascade powder to the open detergent cup. I ran the same cycle I had prior and I was simply shocked by the nearly flawless results. Don't waste your time or money on super expensive under sink softeners. If all you want are clean dishes, look no further. Since a picture is worth a thousand words, I added a before and after image of our glasses.

Good stuff! It takes the spots from our hard water off the dishes. The price point is pretty high though.

OMGOSH! Don't know how I ever survied without this stuff. We have hard water very bad here and My dishes come out SPOT FREE along with a very clean and shinny dishwasher. Once you try this you will continue to purchase it.

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.

Finally something that works! It's better than citric acid, it saved many if my dishes. And water in London is extremely hard.

Excellent for sparkling clean dishes LemiShine dishwasher booster. Excellent for regions wch have hard water. LemiShine works like a dream. My dishes are clean : The dishwasher is clean after using LemiShine .Love this dishwasher product.

Bought this as everyone on line raves about its rifle brass cleaning properties. Great product and does work, but save some money by just using citric acid and washing up liquid.

Great cleaner for washing machines and for dishwashers. It got my dishwasher sparkling, spotless. I also use it in my front loading clothes washer, which had developed an awful mouldy smell, even though I dry the rubber rim and leave the door open. It smelled so bad. After an empty cycle using LemiShine, the smell was gone. I bought two of these so I don't run out. There is something about the citric acid that eats away the mould and mildew that lives in the front loading washing machine. LemiShine gets rid of it completely. I use it every two months on an empty washing machine, run it through hottest water. Leave the door open always. It also works to keep a dishwasher free of mildest smells. I will always have this on hand.

Not sure if this works yet. Have tried it with poor results. Instructions are not clear for our machine which only has one dispense unit. If you do want to try it, get it at Canadian Tire for $8.00 not $20.
