Are finish dishwasher tablets the only way?

[mousebacon]

Has anyone found a good, cheaper, alturnative to finish dishwasher tablets?

I really don't want squeaky, scratchy dishes and have fallen for the advertising really (mug that I am).

We alternate between Finish and Waitrose essential dw tablets.

Both are good. I just alternate each day.

I tend to use whichever are on offer. Although am thinking of going back to powder.

Yes have tried lots of brands finish def. the best option. They are often on offer half price and the like if you shop around.

I use sainsbo basics. Everything is clean and sparkling. I think dishwasher tablets are a huge con

I use the ASDA own brand 5 in one tablets. I find them way better than Finish, always end up with watermarks when I use those.

Lidl are the only decent alternative with my hard water. Others don't compare. Even Lidl need salt added more often.

We use ASDA Smartprice, Tesco's Daisy or Lidl's W5. Used Finish when on offer but haven't noticed any difference!

the quantum ones are good.
lidl second (the all in one kind) best

Tesco Daisy brand

Better than some of the branded ones and we have stupidly hard water.

Thank you for the recommendations

Just felt like maybe I was being conned! I like the idea of alturnating days.

I use the Lidl ones, fantastic imo.

I use the Lidl ones too - brilliant value

Aldi Almat came in the top group in Which tests.

Use salt and rinse aid, it gets better results, and a 5 in 1 tablet is no substitute.

I use Tesco or Asda own brand...the resl cheap ones lol whichever I can get cheapest and have never had any complaints with either.

Morrisons lemon ones are good. Avoid Astonish at all costs, everything comes out with a film of grey dust on it.

Tesco daisy again here.

The Aldi Magnum ones are the best cheap ones according to Which? The Fairy Platinum score higher than Finish but there's only a couple of percentage points within the three. £4 versus £13 is a bit of a no brainer!

Fairy but I stock up when on offer. I still use rinse aid and salt too though.

Aldi.

Yes.

I think you might get away with supermarket tablets and finish rinse aid

genuinely we love tesco basics dw tabs (separate cheap rinse aid/salt also) . They are the best we've found - get rid of the food smells IMO better than finish!

lidl ones are great, imo.

Lidil ones are fine
