Are you wondering whether you should get powder or tablets to clean your plates? We list four reasons to opt for the latter.

Sometimes, it seems like cleaning your plates and crockery is the easy decision to make – the hard decision is whether to use gel, powders or tablets!

Let’s make this really easy for you – if you want a cost-effective, convenient and quick solution when it comes to doing the dishes, the obvious choice is using dishwasher tablets. The best tablets today are those that combine the properties of pre-soaking, bleach and cleaning detergent.

Besides, consider the following 4 reasons to use dishwasher tablets from now on:

1 They are cost-effective. One dishwasher tablet is sufficient for one full load in the appliance. This means that you use just one tablet per wash, whether you load it fully or half. The tablet is thus a precise dosage for your dishwasher, instead of having to guess how much liquid detergent or powder needs to be added to the soap compartment. And since you use only one tablet per wash, it is a more cost-effective solution.

2 They are harsh on stains and grease. Dishwasher tablets might look small and dainty – you might wonder how such a small amount of cleaner can possibly make an impression on a full load of plates and crockery – but they pack a severe punch on greasy residues, food particles and stains. Just one tablet is enough to remove all vestiges of food, oil and cheesy bits from the plates, spoons and pans. Even dried food left over for more than a day is easily washed away, and foul odours are eliminated quickly.

3 They are environment-friendly. It is common knowledge that cleaning soaps and detergents generate lather that travels down pipes and accumulates in the septic tank or main drainage facility. Soap is not eco-friendly at all for this reason. However, the less soap you use, the better it is for the environment. Since you use less soap with dishwasher tablets, you are actually doing the ecology a big favour every time you load up the dishwasher!

4 They are easier to store. Each dishwasher tablet is individually wrapped inside the box, so that you may open it only when you need to. This is a big plus – since each tablet is wrapped, the chances of the soap inside getting wet or contaminated inside the box are quite low. Individual packaging retains the soap’s efficiency and power.
