A solid price for the amount you get, but keep in mind that these types of detergent packs can have trouble fitting in the detergent dispenser, and the plastic wrapping sometimes doesn't fully dissolve when the water runs.
If possible, it'd be better to buy the powder detergent in a box. Stay away from the liquid detergents.

There are so many different products that it's hard to know which is the best value for your machine but this price is hard to beat. I have a Boesch and there seems to be no difference between ANY of the Finish or Cascade tabs so I stock up when there is a PERCEIVED deal Truth is they all do a great job of cleaning but a poor job on drying.

I was at my local Sam's Club over the weekend. Although this is a great price, there were "new" Member's Mark pods right next to these for ~$2 less. I mention new because they were at least new to me as I was surprised to see that they had a similar swirly colored pod to higher end pods made by Finish and Cascade. I've always bought the Finish brand when they were on sale but have to say the Member's Mark seemed to work just as well. Just wanted to share my two cents (or dollars

).

The name brands may be similar, but the Costco ones are trash, in my experience (Bosch 800 machine, for reference). Better to find these on sale than pick up a generic, imho. And $15 is a good price, similar to the best I've seen at Costco.

Do you keep your rinse aid dispenser topped off by chance? I found that even though the pods have rinse aid in them that the additional rinse aid coming from the dishwasher really helps with drying the dishes. I absolutely love Bosch dishwashers and from what I remember when I had mine you can even use the control panel to increase how much rinse aid is dispensed. You might try to experiment to see if that also helps.

These pods have been working well for me compared to the Cascade liquid which always leaves a perfumy odor on the dishes no matter how little I use.

I have this problem with the Cascade products too. I do prefer this Finish product better, but sometimes my local sams club doesn't have it in stock and we need to buy Cascade. I've found this: https://www.amazon.com/Dishwasher...5B75Y?th=1 works well to get rid of the smell for a while. They say you need to use it twice a month but I think you can probably get away with once a month. Ive tried white vinegar, and tried the orange tang cleaning tricks, neither worked for me but this tab did. The Affresh one probably works just as well, but I only have experience with this one.

I seem to have more residue if I use the cheaper powders. Maybe my water isn't hot enough.

Serious question - can you explain the problem with liquid detergents?

I've been using Finish tabs for several years, but I'm an infrequent user of the dishwasher -- mostly wash by hand, but have been needing to use the dishwasher more recently.
