Customer Reviews of Seventh Generation Automatic Dishwasher Gel, Lemon Scent, 42-Ounce Bottles (Pack of 6)
Customer Review: not very good
Summary: 2 Stars
I switched from Electrasol to this hoping to be more environmentally friendly.
This is awful, it doesn't clean nearly as well. There seem to be a film on everything and some food never comes off the plates.
I'm not helping the environment if I have to run thing more than once, if I have to fill the dishwasher with too much detergent, or if I throw the whole thing away because it's a poor product. I'll grudgingly use this up but will never get again.
I will try their powder product to see if that is any better but I'll buy a small amount locally and test it as opposed to a case of it at Amazon.
Another thing I will try is the ecover brand, I hope something works better otherwise I'll go back to mainstream products.
EDIT
I just tried ecover brand (also eco-friendly) and that works much much better.
Customer Review: Disappointed with this product ...
Summary: 1 Stars
I don't have a very good dishwasher so when the dishes had film on them and cups still had coffee stains I wasn't surprised. Even the inside panel of the dishwasher was filthy. Yesterday i picked up another Eco Friendly dishwashing liquid I found at Walmart just to see if it made a difference and boy did it. The minute I opened the dishwasher and the front panel was clean I knew it wasn't the dishwasher causing the problems it was the dishwasher liquid. I examined all the dishes and they are without film the inside of the dishwasher looks brand new it's so clean. I had to jump on the computer right away to cancel my subscription and write up a review. Now I have to figure out what to do with the other 6 bottles I have.
If you are interested in the other dish washing liquid I tried and love it's Palmolive ECO+.
Customer Review: this stuff rocks!!!
Summary: 5 Stars
i bought my first bottle of this stuff a month ago. my family can fill up a dishwasher like you would'nt believe. and to be honest, i dont really "clean" everything i put in there before starting the load. but this stuff reallly cleans my dishes well and fills the kitchen with a lovely lemon scent. the only time i ever had soap spots on my dishes is when i put too MUCH of the soap in. to me, this means the product lasts even longer. the fact that it doesnt really cost that much more than other soaps and that is enviro-friendly makes me want to try the other products this brand has. little by little, we are moving from all the things we did use to products that wont kill the earth and its inhabitants any quicker than we already are.
p.s. i didnt try the powder form of this, only the liquid
Customer Review: I vote "yes" for this "controversial" product!!
Summary: 5 Stars
Wow, I was stunned to read all the negative reviews for this product! We've used it for years now, with great success, in a variety of different machines, as we move often for my job. It has always performed brilliantly, which makes me feel twice as good: I get clean dishes, and support "eco-friendliness" at the same time!
Many of the negative reviews seem quite thoughtful here, so I don't know what to say. My advice would be to give this product a try, and see how it compares to other detergents you have used. I believe odds are that it will stack up quite well.
There are lots of worse things you could do in shopping than giving this great company -- Seventh Generation -- 4 bucks for what I believe you will find to be an excellent product.
Customer Review: Serious flaws
Summary: 2 Stars
We have been a fan of Seventh Generation products for several months. We have had great luck with the laundry detergent and glass cleaner... the dishwasher gel is a different story. While we all should do out part to help the environment it is preferred that green products work to an acceptable level. Unfortunately - the Seventh Generation Dishwasher Gel has a serious flaw... it leaves very large and noticeable white streak. Compared to the Cascade Dual Action... there is not much of a comparison.
While the dishes come out of the dishwasher clean - they certainly are not "Spotless". After about 5 uses we decided it wasn't worth the hassle and we switched back to Cascade. Final verdict.. We will continue to look for a "Green" dishwashing gel.
