Question:	It was recommended for our Bosch dishwasher to deal with smell. Bottle has no directions for amount. We were told to use very little but how much
Answer:	The new version cleans pots and pans better
Question:	Is this supposed to be runny? I bought a bottle of Finish dishwasher gel for the first time, at my local grocery store. It is so watery
Answer:	I actually called Cascade directly to ask them that exact question. The answer they gave me is that the lemon scent is just added fragrance only & contains NO lemon juice at all. Hope that helps!🙂

User questions & answers

Question:	pod dimension?. "fat" pods often stick dispenser door shut, so soap never makes it into machine. i need thickness and side of pod in inches
Answer:	$3.99 .... (I'm sorry, I couldn't let this pass)
Question:	Do we need to add the water softener salt too along with the tabs? or is just a tab is enough
Answer:	My package says "Made in USA" That was one of the selling points. In the description it says that the wool is from domestic sheep and is in support of American farms.

Answer:	These are used to help prevent static
Question:	Are these dishwasher safe
Answer:	Two

User questions & answers

Question:	What Is The Shelf Life
Answer:	you have to open these and then what's really frustrating is that you cannot simply slip it out of the wrapper and drop it into your dishwasher dispenser ... noooooo ... you must touch this thing that is most likely full of chemicals and place it by hand into the dispenser..... so frustrating ... I absolutely hate touching this thing ... so I will not be buying these again!
Question:	What's the difference between cascade complete and cascade platnum. i know platinum is supposed to be better, but is it? and why
Answer:	Are your dishes dishwasher safe? If not, don’t use it🤦🏽‍♀️
Question:	What exactly is the difference between this, the ‘new version’ - Platinum Plus, and the ‘old version’ platinum
Answer:	To my knowledge they are completely natural. I have been very satisfied with this product.
Question:	Do these contain actual lemon juice? My silverware says not to use detergent with lemon juice
Answer:	Yes I believe they would. I would use all of them when doing that. It will help move it around inside to get the air circulating better. I really like these and have noticed that things dry a little more quickly.

User questions & answers

Question:	Are these a pod of liquid or a solid powder
Answer:	I just got only 1 bottle instead of 3. I'm contacting the seller to get this resolved. Otherwise I feel cheated for having the most expensive bottle of dishwasher detergent ever.
Question:	Do they work well with hard water
Answer:	That would be 45 ounces in each bottle. So 3 bottles should = 135 ounces. More than enough to to coat your dishwasher (and dishes) with a disgusting white residue!
Question:	Does the packet wrapper dissolve in the washer or do you have to unwrap it
Answer:	You fill the little detergent holder in the door. It's pretty small and I'd say you'd only get about a tablespoon of the stuff in there, maybe less. But just fill the little dish. Then close it. (I don't have a Bosch, so I don't know how it closes.) Turn your dishwasher on and away you go. The Finish All-in-One tablets work just as well. Not sure why they recommended it for the smell. I find that I have to use dishwasher cleaner now and then (you can find that at any grocery or big box store) to get rid of the smell when we have been eating too much fish. But the Finish detergent is really excellent, especially with dried-on foods.
Question:	Is it cruelty free
Answer:	Shake it up before your first use. It should be fairly runny, but not watery.

User questions & answers

Question:	Is this a regular dish detergent? Or have to use for dishwasher
Answer:	Good Morning. The Volume is 75 ounces. The 4 pound number on the bottle refers to the total weight which has nothing to do with the Volume of the container. I'm not sure why the manufacturer includes a weight number unless it's a "government" regulation. Don't have a clue as to why the shipping weight shows 1+lbs. Just ignore the shipping weight and know the volume in the bottle is 75 ounces.
Question:	Is this product rate or been certified to be septic safe
Answer:	I do not known if this septic safe . I been using this same dishwasher detergent for years and can tell you I never had any issues.
Question:	Title says "pack of 3", image says "3 pack", shipping weight is 9.2 (3)... seller says listing is for 1 bottle. For posterity, how many did you get
Answer:	Our Pacs have a shelf life of 18 months.
Question:	is each bottle 45 ounces or is that the total for all three
Answer:	The Cascade Platinum is designed to give you the best clean for your dishes while also keeping your dishwasher clean and eliminating the need for a rinse aid. Cascade Complete will still get you a great clean, however we'd recommend using with Cascade Rinse Aid and Dishwasher Cleaner.

User questions & answers

Question:	How do I subscribe & save as advertized
Answer:	Yes! I think I've just learned a hint that might help you. Of course, have your water temp hot enough (120-140 degrees F) and clean your filters and spinner arms regularly. Helpful Hint: once dishwasher is completely loaded with dirty dishes, take a paper towel and thoroughly (obsessively??) wipe dry the dispenser where you will put the Pac. If there is any moisture at all, the Pac may begin softening/dissolving, but then hardens when the heat,even of the water, begins. Then the Pac adheres to the dispenser or only partially empties, hardening rather than dissolving. (I obviously don't know the science behind this, but after 2 months of having to do all our dishes twice, I am so relieved to find a simple answer to an annoying and wasteful and inefficient situation. Good luck!
Question:	Are these arriving stuck together still a common issue? i want to subscribe but not if it's going to be a hassle
Answer:	My dishwasher has a compartment that they go into. But I have just thrown one in before for extra soap and nothing bad happen...So yeah I think it would be fine just don't let them touch the heating element, Put it in the corner farthest away from the heat :-)
Question:	Diswasher has to places for soap. First is open the second dispenser has a lid on it. Which do I use
Answer:	I have really hard water so I have to have salt in my water softener or else I still have hard water spots on my dishes with these pods. So, I think that would depend on how hard your water is.
Question:	I'm curious? Since When did "2 day prime" become 7 days
Answer:	Solid powder. I love these pods, they work very well.
