Finish Quantum Hard Water 82 ct.

Just survived a year long period without use of a kitchen due to a slowly leaking dishwasher - a mishap so traumatic, I found myself considering foregoing installation of another dishwasher during restoration. Fortunately, my fear and frustration eased with time, and we can once again lay claim to a functioning kitchen, complete with new BOSCH brand dishwasher.Although alternating between CASCADE and FINISH brands in the past, we DID take notice that our BOSCH manufacturer recommends FINISH brand dish detergent and rinse, so we complied. When I spied a FINISH detergent specifically for "hard water", I decided to try it in an effort to keep the effects of our harsh well water to a minimum. Although a bit more expensive than the regular FINISH detergents, I don't really mind that much if it helps protect our "investment" in a mid-high range appliance.Although initially concerned with how the FINISH HARD WATER product might interact with the CRYSTAL DRY feature on our dishwasher, I am pleased to say after 5 months use, I have not encountered any problems and am thrilled with how clean and dry everything is. I acknowledge that I've only used my BOSCH appliance and FINISH pods for a short time, however I can report that my 33 year old stoneware, glasses, and silverware are shiny and spotless. I cannot detect any bothersome lingering scent nor residue/mineral deposits inside the dishwasher itself or on the dishes (however I WOULD BE shocked to discover our off-white stoneware NOT succumbing to the usual accumulation of iron which has always required semi annual hand scrubbing to remove... Gee, a girl can only HOPE, right?).So, my opinion after 5 MONTHS USE: So far, so good. My current plan is to continue use of these FINISH HARD WATER DETERGENT pods, as well as the separate liquid FINISH RINSE agent. Right now, they're getting the job done!18 MONTH UPDATE: Still using FINISH QUANTUM HARD WATER pods; still getting stellar results. After each dishwasher run and corresponding Crystal Dry drying cycle, my dishes, silverware, and glassware are spotless... as is the interior door, dishwasher tub, and gasket (all look brand new!).2.5 YEAR UPDATE: Consistent use of FINISH QUANTUM HARD WATER pods shows CONSISTENT results. Clear glasses; no spots, clean plates; no residue, clean stainless steel tub interior after use, and no white mineral residue visible on dishwasher gasket. AND dare I declare perhaps a decreased amount of residual iron build up (rusty orange color) on the off-white portions of my stoneware? If correct - truly a MIRACLE! The truly unfortunate part is that this product IS QUITE COSTLY as compared to non-Hard Water detergents. BUMMER!

Cleans dishes so well. We have very hard well water so that's not an easy task

wonderful; help remove hard water spots

I love this product! I do not have to rewash anything. I wish it was still carried in my local grocery stores.

If you have hard water this detergent works great. Dishes are film free and seems to help prevent buildup in dishwasher.

Living in Florida, we ordered the hardwater version. It was worth it

I have hard water and my local stores don't sell hard water detergent. This is an absolute miracle. Very happy with my purchase, will be buying more in the future

This was my second time ordering the Finish Quantum Hard Water dishwasher tablets. It was an 82 ct order. I opened them up and ended up having to inspect them all. Out of 82, 2 were popped and had covered the remaining in soap. Not an issue, I’m sure that happens. Box they came in was not damaged. But 15 had a brown liquid in the blue portion of the packets. It looks like a mold of some type. Had to throw them away as I’m not using anything that looks that suspicious. The order is shipped in 4 bags of 22 each. So I basically had to throw away almost one entire bag. I’m not happy with that ratio. I’ve reached out to Finish for a replacement.
