No prewash needed
This had become a household cleaning staple. It got all of our pots and pans clean without having to rinse or prewash. The dishes came out sparkling with no residue.

Product changed for the worse
I've used this for 6+ years, but I think P&G made a change some time in the past year or two such that now this powder leaves a caked on white residue in my Bosch dishwasher's components. Sometimes on my stainless steel cookware too like pots and pans. I have switched to 7th Generation powder which seems to do a better job.

Hello Will! I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with the Cascade Powder leaving residue after a lot of years of usage! Here are a few tips to help improve cleaning and reduce residue: - Check Water Temperature: Make sure your water is at least 120°F (49°C). Running your kitchen tap before starting the dishwasher can help. - Avoid Other Water Use: Run your dishwasher when no other water sources are in use to ensure full water pressure. - Load Properly: Ensure all items are loaded so they get full spray and that the spray arms aren’t blocked. If you still have issues after checking those steps, we’d love to help you further please give us a call at (800) 765-5516 so we can learn more about your situation and address your concerns.

Not bad!
I normally don’t use this type of product for my dishwasher, the powder I mean. I must say though I ended up with this and used it and I was kind of impressed! My dishes came out super clean and no spots! I hate spots! Don’t know that’d id buy it again but if definitely does work I just prefer the pods!

Unacceptable
Came with powder all over the shipping carton and inside the Oreo box. Package broken crushed taped over. Whoever shipped knew it had openings throughout. I have pictures.

Only Dish Detergent I use
Love this dish detergent. Love it more than using pods because it dissolves so much better. A small amount goes along way. And the value per wash is there!

Product is fine, but Target continues to send open, broken boxes. Powder covers the other items so I have to wash them.More care in shipping is needed.

Ruined my dishwasher and dishes.
This product left white film all over all of my dishes, etched marks into my glassware and inside of my dishwasher.

Great
This is by far the best soap for a dishwasher! Always leaves the dishes nice and clean. A little bit definitely goes a long ways. This is the only soap we use.

Clean Dishes
Honestly we have only used this once. Very little residue was left, no spots and our dishes did not have a film on them. It was very good and worth the money.

Best dishwasher soap around!
Cascade complete gel dishwasher soap is amazing. My dishes always come out so clean and spot free. It is very easy to use and not messy at all. I won't use any other kind.

Cascade Complete Gel Fresh Scent works really well. It gets my dishes clean without me having to pre-rinse, even when there’s stuck on food or grease. Everything comes out looking clean with no leftover residue. The fresh scent is light and not overpowering, which I like. A little goes a long way, so one bottle lasts a while. Overall, it’s reliable, affordable, and does exactly what it’s supposed to do.

Horrible Cleaning Detergent.
This detergent is the worst I’ve ever used, no dramatics. It leaves a residue and defeats the purpose of utilizing the dishwasher if I have to wash the dishes after I run the dishwasher. 0/10, wouldn’t recommend. I thought I was doing a good deed and using detergent instead of the pacs, won’t make that mistake anymore.

Squeaky Clean Dish Detergent
I noticed as soon as I picked it up that it was different and decided to get it still. The platinum liquid was superior. this stuff beats your glass, plastic and other items up. I had glasses with decoration that I have been dishwashing for decades and this stuff worked well.

Used it for years now
I use this because I feel guilty using anything with a plastic pod. This does the job just fine, I can’t count on dishes being clean. Some stuck-on stuff might need a presoak though

Great cleaner that's good for your dishwasher!!
I recently switched to liquid Cascade for my dishwasher because my filter in my dishwasher was clogged. I heard the pods that you use in the dishwasher don't break down and can build up. I love this cleaner. It's easy to pour and my dishes get very clean with zero spots. Highly recommend!!!

Horrible product. I had to wash my dishes by hand after using this. Plates not clean glasses and flatware has residue

We're sorry to hear your dishes weren't left spotless like we expect from the many quality checks we have in place. Unfortunately, hard water can be a nuisance. It can fight against the detergent to allow minerals and food particles to settle back on dishes, which results in a film. To get the best results, be sure your water is at least 120 degrees Fahrenheit/49 degrees Celsius. Also, when loading the machine, be sure all items will get the full spray and that your spray arms aren’t blocked. We'd like to get more information to help, as well as share your experience with our Quality team. When you have a minute, please get in touch with us at (800) 765-5516.
