Q: HOW do we remove the smell of this product from our dishwasher? Half a dozen loads later, the fragrance is still so strong it burns my eyes and makes our dishes TASTE like this product. Help??

submitted by Lezlie - 4 years ago
  • A: Hello. We are sorry to hear you did not enjoy the long lasting fresh scent Finish Dual Action dishwasher cleaner has to offer. The scent notes contain a citrus core with Eucalyptus Mint. The scent will fade after a few washes. As per the label instructions, this product is to be used in an empty dishwasher. When you get an opportunity, we'd like to speak with you further and check to see how you are doing. Please call us at 1-800-235-6052 between 9:00-5:00 EST (Monday - Friday) or send us an email via the Contact Us page on our website including the following case number RB0001102004, and we'd be more than happy to assist.

  • A: 2024 and still horrible! You should listen to your customers!

    submitted byDissapointed - 2 years ago
  • A: Same experience as others. Followed instructions, ran on an empty load. Multiple loads later we are still drowning in the scent, dishes are as well. Multiple dishes will become unusable if I can’t hand wash this smell out with other soaps.

    submitted byWexler - 2 years ago
  • A: The same for us… the smell is extremely strong and unpleasant! Followed all instructions and even have runs extra cycles empty, just with our detergent to get rid of the smell, but it just doesn’t go away! :(

Q: Do you puncture the wax plug with a divider on bottom rack? Thanks

submitted by Uppitybs - 5 years ago
  • A: Hi Uppitybs, no, you should not puncture the wax plug on the bottom of Finish Dual Action Dishwasher Cleaner. To ensure optimum results are achieved, here are some helpful tips: Do not remove the cap. Remove sticker from top of the bottle to expose the wax plug. Place bottle upside down in the bottom dish rack. Keep cap on and make sure the wax plug is exposed. Do not use any soap or detergents. Run dishwasher empty on the hottest cycle (i.e. pots and pans, sanitation, etc.). Discard the empty bottle at the end of the cycle. As the manufacturer of Finish, we would also like an opportunity to better assist you. Please call 1-800-235-6052 between 9:00-5:00 EST (Monday - Friday) or send us an email via the Contact Us page on our website including the following reference number, RB0000285706, and we would be more than happy to help. Sincerely, Your Finish Team!

  • A: I followed the manufacturer's directions to the letter; however, the wax plug did not melt at all, even after I ran my dishwasher twice on the sanitize cycle. The water seemed hot enough. In fact, my glasses fogged up when I opened the dishwasher mid-cycle to check whether the Finish Liquid Dishwasher Machine Cleaner bottle was empty. Nevertheless, I had to pierce the wax plug with a toothpick to get the produce out. I am willing to try again, but I can't say it was easy to use. Any suggestions?

    submitted byLisa - 4 years ago
  • A: I did it with 2 different bottle and neither one worked. Had to call # on back and send photo to get money back. DO NOT BUY!

Q: How can I get rid of the strong chemical smell that has lingered after using this product? It has been 5 weeks and I have been running the dishwasher at least 4 times a week.

submitted by Annie - 4 months ago
  • A: Thank you for your feedback regarding our Finish® Dishwasher Cleaner - Liquid. designed to leave a fragrance behind after use, but there are steps which can be performed to remove the fragrance from your dishwasher. These steps may have to be performed more than once to remove undesired fragrance: Step 1: empty dishwasher and run a cycle using no products – only hot water, adding 1 cup (or more if desired) store-bought white food vinegar to the bottom of the dishwasher. Step 2: leave the dishwasher empty and run a cycle using only hot water These steps may leave an odor of vinegar in your machine – to remove that, you can perform a wash without any product or vinegar to help remove the remaining vinegar odor. We hope this information helps! Sincerely, Your Finish® Team.

    Scent won't go away!

    This product needs to be discontinued. Is it even food safe? My dishwasher is clean, but the scent will not go away and our dishes smell like it too. Now we have to handwash everything, like I don’t have a dishwasher! Seriously considering buying a new dishwasher to get rid of the awful smell from this product!!

    Horrid Stench

    Unfortunately I didn’t read the reviews before purchasing. The cleaning wasn’t great and the smell it left after is absolutely horrid. My whole kitchen smells like it and it’s a strange and very unpleasant smell. So disappointed to read that many say this stench lingers. I scrubbed the whole thing out with Dawn afterwards both to clean what it missed and to try to mitigate the odor. Would never buy again!

    This is my second time purchasing this and the wax plug just does not come out. I’ve wasted 2 dishwashing cycles on this already and it still hasn’t done what it’s supposed to do. Waste of money, energy, water and time!

    Awful stench of the fragrence was awful and persisted for weeks.

    The cleaning was mediocre at best but stench of the fragrance that was left in the machine was horrible, I re-ran the machine multiple times with vinegar and just water to get the worst of it out but it still lingered for another couple of weeks.

    Horrible Chemical Smell Never Goes Away

    Unfortunately I didn’t read the reviews before buying. This seems to be happening to lots of people. It seemed to work fine but now, over a month and a dozen washes later, my entire dishwasher still reeks of the chemical smell this left behind. Any dishes I wash in it come out heavily smelling of this and I even taste it when I drink water out of a glass. Nothing seems to be working to make it fade and disappear.

    A must if you have hard water!

    I live in a city with extremely hard water, so having a way to clean the lime and other mineral buildup out of my dishwasher is vital. I'm so glad I discovered this cleaner! It's both convenient (just peel the sticker off the top), and very effective. It made my dishwasher feel and smell so much cleaner, which in turn helps my dishes get cleaner. I highly recommend this product!

    HORRIBLE SMELL

    I’ve never left a negative review before, but here we go. If you want your house to smell like chemicals and give yourself an asthma attack, then buy this. Sure, your dishwasher might be clean but at what cost??? All your dishes will taste like this forever and you and your entire family will have the worst headache of your life.
