The FINISH Challenge With Review And Giveaway

Finish Quantum Package

Readers are familiar with my past Electrasol Finish Quantum Powerball Dish Detergent, Finish Quantum Detergent Dispenser System, and Finish Quantum Powerball (same product but shorter name) reviews and giveaways.  Because I truly appreciate this product, I agreed to review  and sponsor  again.

From me, Finish Powerball always gets marks of 10, so Reckitt Benckiser’s improved Finish can’t go any higher on my rating scale.  I appreciate using it in my dishwasher.  I don’t have to scrape and rinse anymore.  I don’t have to add Jet Dry liquid.  The bleach granules, enzyme granules, and Powerball with Jet-Dry in wrapper-free packaging cut cleaning time a lot.  I can see the difference and feel the difference as I put things away.  Cooking utensils, eating utensils, pots, pans, dishes, glassware – all glisten and sparkle. Bye-bye, cloudy film and greasy residue.

At the suggested retail price of $3.49, a  ten-capsule pack gets rid of tough stains and  burnt-on food.  So, how about your taking the FINISH Challenge yourself.  Try Finish Quantum and banish pre-rinsing, dirty dishes, frustrating water spots.  If you don’t see the difference, then get it free (money-back guarantee).

FINISH Quantum is available nationwide.  For more information, visit FINISH on Facebook or go online to www.FinishDishwashing.com.

    We do scrape and rinse the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. We wait until it is full and run it about every other day. Thanks!

    My dishes usually sit in the sink until no more will fit… Then my husband or I will buckle down and do them in two batches. If there’s not enough for two full loads, we’ll hand-wash the leftovers while the first load runs. I’ve been using these Finish powerballs for a few years now, they’re the only kind of dishwasher soap I like!

    I let the dishes sit in the sink all day and then run them in the dishwasher at night. I can rinse them periodically and they don’t stink up the dishwasher that way.

    Hubby does the dishwasher, his routine is letting any thing that is tough to clean, soak a bit in hot water while we are having dinner, after dinner he loads and starts the cycle.

    my rountine is one that sure bugs my husband but it’s just one that feel better with making sure my dishes are clean. I run hot water in my kitchen sink and let my utensils and plates soak a bit then put them in the dishwasher along then with any glassware for drinking. I never put my pots and pans in the dishwasher and wash those by hand. I’ve never tried Finish as a dishwasher choice, thanks for the chance

    I usually run my dishwasher once every day. And I never put my pots & pans in there. But in recent years, I have gotten away from really rinsing out my dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. I was told that the new models work better if you don’t rinse stuff off first (except the big stuff, of course!)

    On a good day, we load the dishwasher straight from the table, and run it after supper. On a bad day, I let them pile up in the sink until I can’t stand it any more, then load and run the dishwasher. Sometimes its a short load, sometimes there are more dirty dishes than I can fit into one load, so I either hand wash the rest or load the dishwasher up a second time. Just depends on what kind of day we’ve had.
