All About Finish Dishwasher Tablets

The dishwasher, without a doubt, makes life much easier. Gradually after they appeared, they began to produce various dishwashing detergents for them. Powders, gel and tablet formulations are sold on the market today.

In our article, we will tell you all about Finish tablets - the most advertised and popular. We will help you figure out whether these capsules are as effective and harmless as they are, and how to use them correctly.

The manufacturer of tablets Finish for dishwashers did not skimp on advertising its products, and today even those who are far from washing dishes or those who do not use an automatic unit know about this tool.

Finish tablets are a very unusual form of compressed detergent powder with a gel inside. Two-layer cubes are packed in natural film.

Before use, it does not need to be removed, since organic matter dissolves well in water and creates a detergent composition to remove fatty residues and other stains on dishes. In this case, users are spared from direct contact with chemistry.

Finish Soluble Individual Packing Tablets provide protection for the hands of dishwasher operators. The composition of the tool includes:

• washing and cleaning component - polycarboxylate;

• Surfactants (non-ionic foaming agents);

• oxygen bleach (it is he who serves as the basis in Finish to break down food residues and other contaminants on the dishes);

• protein compounds in the form of enzymes (activate chemical reactions);

• aromatic substances;

• phosphonates to neutralize impurities.

As you can see, the natural shell in this case is justified, it is needed to protect the hands when touching the tablets. And what about the dishes, how to react to the fact that they have to be washed with such a chemical composition? The manufacturer is in a hurry to reassure: the composition of Finish tablets is not as aggressive as it seems, because the capsules do not contain chlorine and similar active substances.

Yes, and no one canceled rinsing, and given the fact that in most models this function is in enhanced mode, everything falls into place. Finish tablets are much more effective than their organic counterparts and do an excellent job of cleaning any kind of contamination in kitchen utensils.

They contain salt to soften the water, which also removes the white deposits on the dishes. At the same time, the manufacturer still recommends adding Finish salt in parallel with the tablets and separately, in order to surely get a high-quality sink.

Tablets are essentially an analogy of powder and gel dishwashing detergents. They are preferred when choosing detergents because of their ease of use.

You can also add dish rinse to the capsules - this will help the main product to better wash dishes, kitchen items and especially glass products (rinse removes stains). Finish tablets are available in various compositions, there is also a combined form.

By the way, the latter does not need salt or rinse aid - this is a complex tablet consisting of layers. In it, according to the principle of a nesting doll, all the components in their separate shells seem to fit into each other: for example, the rinse aid is “embedded” in the thickness of the powder, and the salt is in the rinse aid.

Dissolving gradually, each component enters the washing chamber in due time. Multilayer tablets are very popular with consumers and are in high demand. But some experts believe that this is the result of an advertising campaign. And before purchasing a large package, you can buy only one capsule, as they say, for a sample.

When choosing, one must take into account the different composition and activity of the substances included in the tablets. Finish Dishwasher Capsules come in three flavors, from the budget option to the more expensive ones. By the way, not always a cheap product means that the product is of poor quality.

The manufacturer of the Finish product offers products with a classic focus and with additives that strengthen the basic composition and make their effectiveness more powerful. Naturally, additional elements lead to higher production costs.

But the consumer is given the right to choose, in this case at least three types of dishwasher tablets are offered. Let's consider a description of each of these tools.

Suitable for those who focus on purchases from the category of budget options. The minimum cost of one capsule is about 15-20 rubles. This versatile product contains a special additive StainSoaker, which eliminates pre-cleaning and soaking.

According to the manufacturer, this type of triple action Finish tablet is very popular with consumers. The composition operates according to the "3 in 1" principle:

• effectively removes grease and other stains;

• adds extra shine when rinsing;

• eliminates stains and droplets on glasses.

In addition, the product has anti-corrosion properties, which is primarily good for the equipment itself. Finish Quantum is available either in its original form or with a lemon scent, and there are also multilayer green gel capsules with an apple-lime scent.

Universal "rounds" of this type of Finish product contain enzymes and many activators that can easily cope even with food dried on plates and other residues. Composition of multidisciplinary action:

• easily removes grease stains and other dirt on dishes;

• makes dishes sparkle;

• has anti-corrosion properties;

• protects cutlery, baking sheets, pans, the dishwasher itself from rust and scale formation;

• suitable for washing table silver and cupronickel products.

When you need a quick wash, Finish All-in-One tablets are the perfect detergent option. The cost of one such capsule starts at 23 rubles. Experts advise against buying a large pack of Finish tablets all at once.

One capsule is taken when the product is initially tried, or when something new appears in the line. But if you have found your suitable option and trust this manufacturer, immediately purchase a large batch, for example, 100 pieces.

A wholesale purchase will bring you savings on each capsule within 3-5 rubles, that is, you will save up to 50 rubles on one package. For daily use, it is also advantageous to take packs of 50 or 65 pieces. And if you have to wash dishes in automatic mode only on holidays, or when a big company is going, then buy a bag with 14 tablets so that you can use the product within the expiration date of the product.

To achieve the maximum washing effect, you need to unpack the packaging with Finish tablets and use them correctly according to the instructions. Unpack very carefully so as not to damage the contents, and most importantly, do not do it with wet hands. We offer some important tips from those for whom Finish has already become a "friend".

• You do not need to remove the film from the tablets, and make sure that the capsules fall into a clean and dry compartment (they themselves must also be dry). Otherwise, the shell will dissolve very quickly, Finish will soften and remain on the walls of the compartment, a small part of the product will get into the washing chamber, and the dishes will not come out very clean at the exit.

• In order for the detergent (in this case, the Finish tablet) to be evenly distributed between the dishes, put dirty items not close to each other, and put them in the appropriate trays and baskets, as indicated by the manufacturer (the average complement of dishwashers is 10-12 sets, European standards include up to 11 items in the set). Do not overload the machine, do not cover the washing compartments with baking sheets or large pans. No obstacle should interfere with the "work" of the capsule: the detergent must enter the washing chamber in full, so that the process does not have to be restarted.

• Apply Finish with the specified detergent and rinse aid. It is poured into a special compartment. He kind of "helps" the main team to wash the dishes with high quality. But, in addition to imparting extra shine, the rinse aid also participates in the drying process of kitchen items. When the washing process comes to an end, the last portion of water is supplied rather hot, and the rinse aid accelerates the evaporation of the droplets by reducing the surface tension of the liquid. The result is an economical effect of condensation drying.

• Be sure to add salt from the same manufacturer to Finish tablets to soften the water. If there is no salt of the same brand, experts advise adding regular table salt. This is necessary in order to soften the water, and no plaque remains on the dishes (it is especially visible on coffee and tea cups). The Finish manufacturing company claims that salt is in the composition of the tablets, however, experienced people in this matter still recommend adding salt separately, so that for sure, as they say. Pour salt into a special compartment (there is one in almost every dishwasher) through a funnel or directly into the neck of the container, but never into the washing chamber of the machine itself.

• But to strengthen the composition of the compressed product with citric acid or vinegar in order for the dishes to shine more is not worth it. Finish has plenty of similar substitutes that are more effective than lemon and vinegar, and the glasses will shine anyway. All Finish glassware comes out of the dishwasher as new.

By the way, use Finish tablets also for the prevention of the dishwasher. Run the device “dry” (without dishes) 2 times a year, but with the pressed Finish agent. Be sure that this is only for the benefit of the technique - this way it will last longer.

But neither for washing dishes, nor as a preventive cleaning of the dishwasher, do not use a product that has passed the expiration date. The experts warn about this very seriously, emphasizing that Finish contains active chemicals.

Therefore, take care of your property - kitchen utensils and dishwasher: follow the instructions for use from the manufacturer. It is better to dispose of an obsolete product in accordance with environmental standards and safety rules for people and the environment.

However, it is unlikely that anyone else has to deal with recycling.

Almost all users like Finish products. Allocate a long shelf life, affordable cost, even compact packaging and the ability to purchase a different number of capsules at a time: from 14 to 100 in a package.

Almost all customers report positively about the effect of Finish Compressed Dishwashing Liquid (Tablets). They are satisfied with the quality of washing, note that the items after washing shine and retain their freshness - an excellent alternative to powdered products. Many highlight Finish Quantum and Finish All-in-One tablets.

Capsules with fruit and citrus aromas are praised - this is an additional bonus in the form of pleasant freshness, note that the presence of the gel makes the sink gentle and soft.But there are those to whom Finish products seem expensive and not affordable to everyone.

Critics include environmentalists who resent the fact that the manufacturer has paid little attention to the environmental aspect of the capsule application. However, Finish supporters appeal: their abilities, safety, efficiency and high quality of the products of this manufacturer have been confirmed in laboratory conditions by scientific research.

It is also worth looking into expert advice. Most of them claim that the tablet compressed detergent with a gel circle in the middle is a versatile option that has shown excellent results in a variety of conditions: when washing in hot and cold water, with a high content of water hardness, and so on.

No one disputes this fact that dishwashers are a great achievement of mankind. And since such a technique has appeared, then the related products for its work are also being improved. In general, consumers appreciated the appearance on the market of tablets for washing dishes in an automatic mode.

From individual statements it is clear that not everyone likes to deal with powder products, if only because when they fall asleep in the compartment, you have to swallow chemical dust. And these particles can "get stuck" in the respiratory system and cause allergies.

As it turned out, Compressed products in the form of tablets, capsules are gaining more and more popularity among consumers due to their gradual soaking inside the washing chamber - many people believe that this method is more effective when washing, it leaves less stains on dishes.
