Molly's Suds Dishwasher Pods | Clean Dishwasher Detergent, Cuts Grease & Rinses Clean (Residue-Free) for Sparkling Dishes | 120 Auto-Release Tabs (Citrus)

I switched to these after getting progressively more annoyed with the major brand dishwasher pods I was using. The thing that finally pushed me over the edge was realizing that my glasses and dishes always had this kind of filmy residue on them after washing. Like I'd hold a glass up to the light and there'd be this cloudy coating. I thought maybe my dishwasher was dying or something, but turns out it was just the detergent leaving all this buildup. I'd been trying to use more natural/less chemical-heavy products around the house anyway, so when I saw these I figured I'd give them a shot. First load I ran with them I was honestly prepared to be disappointed because in my experience "natural" cleaning products usually mean "doesn't actually clean very well." But I was totally wrong. My dishes came out actually clean. Like properly clean. The glasses were crystal clear with zero film, the plates didn't have that weird residue, and everything just looked and felt cleaner. I keep these pods in the cabinet under my kitchen sink along with all my other cleaning supplies. The container they come in is a decent size and easy to grab one pod out of. What I really like is that there's no harsh chemical smell. With my old detergent I'd open the dishwasher right after a cycle and get hit with this strong artificial lemon smell that would make my eyes water a bit. These don't have that at all. When I open the dishwasher it just smells clean, not like I'm opening a bottle of bleach or something. They handle grease really well too which was a concern. I cook a lot and I'll admit I'm not great about pre-rinsing my dishes before loading the dishwasher. I just scrape off the big chunks and toss them in. My old pans that have baked-on oil, casserole dishes with cheese stuck to them, all that stuff comes out clean. I was skeptical that a more natural product would be able to cut through grease like that but it totally does. I've been using these for probably 3 months now and haven't had a single load where stuff didn't come out clean. Even my coffee mugs that tend to get stained - they come out looking basically new. The only time I've had issues is when I accidentally overload the dishwasher and things don't get water flow to all the dishes, but that's my fault not the detergent's fault. The pods themselves dissolve really well. I was worried they might leave chunks of undissolved detergent in the dishwasher like some pods do, but these fully dissolve every time. I just pop one in the detergent compartment, close it up, and run the cycle. No mess, no issues. I also appreciate that the ingredient list is actually readable and doesn't look like a chemistry experiment. I try to avoid phosphates and all that harsh stuff, especially because our dishwasher drains into a septic system and I don't want to mess that up. These are septic safe which is great, and they're also better for the environment which is a nice bonus. Price-wise they're definitely more expensive than the budget dishwasher detergent at the grocery store, but comparable to the name brand pods I was using before. And honestly I'd rather pay a bit more for something that actually works well and doesn't leave my dishes coated in weird film. One thing I've noticed is that I don't have to use rinse aid anymore. With my old detergent I absolutely needed rinse aid or everything would come out with water spots all over it. With these pods my dishes dry perfectly without any rinse aid. That actually saves me money because I'm not buying rinse aid every month, so the higher cost of the pods kind of evens out. My dishwasher also seems cleaner since I switched. I used to have to run those dishwasher cleaner tablets every month because it would start smelling funky and getting buildup inside. Now I haven't needed to do that at all. The interior of my dishwasher stays clean and doesn't develop that gross smell. I showed these to my sister who has sensitive skin and she ended up getting them too because she was having issues with her dishes irritating her skin. She thinks it was the residue from her old detergent. She's been using Molly's Suds for a few weeks now and said her skin issues cleared up, so that's another bonus. The container lasts me about a month and a half running the dishwasher probably 5 times a week. So you get a decent number of pods per container. I keep a backup container in my pantry so I don't run out, but one container definitely lasts a while. If you're on the fence about trying a more natural dishwasher detergent because you're worried it won't actually clean well, I'd say definitely give these a shot. They work just as well if not better than the conventional brands, they don't leave residue, they're gentler on your dishes and your dishwasher, and they don't fill your kitchen with chemical smells. I've fully switched over and I'm not going back to my old brand.

I switched to these because I wanted something that actually cleans dishes but doesn’t leave residue behind, and these pods have been great. They cut through greasy plates and cloudy glasses surprisingly well, even on shorter cycles. What I noticed right away is that dishes come out clean and spot-free without that slippery or chemical feel some detergents leave behind. The citrus scent is light and fresh, not overpowering, and doesn’t linger on dishes. I also like that the pods dissolve fully and don’t get stuck in the dispenser. We’ve run everything from everyday plates to pots and kid cups through them, and everything comes out looking good. No chalky buildup inside the dishwasher either so far. Overall, these feel like a solid upgrade if you want effective cleaning with simpler ingredients. Big box, great value, and they actually do what they’re supposed to.

Works extremely well, better than the premium dishwasher pods I used for years! Leaves no residue, no leakage because they are powder pods; I will definitely continue using this product!!! Environmentally friendly, it leaves my glassware and dishes sparkling clean!!

I was reluctant to use a "cleaner" dishwasher detergent because my roommates never even think about scraping or rinsing their dishes and they will sit in the machine for a couple days getting good and crusty before the cycle gets run. Let me tell you I was floored!!! They came out just as clean as the "platinum" pods that I was using. I didn't know this but the chemical pods come with a warning not to let the pods burst and touch your skin due to burning. Uh scary!! I actually used one of Molly's pods broke open to scrub my soapstone sinks clean and they were fast, smelled good and didn't even make my skin feel dried out afterwards. I highly sugest these! If not for the health of your family but the health of the planet. Every little bit helps!

I bought these pods for our dishwasher because I try to choose products with simpler ingredients for our home. I use one pod for each wash and it dissolves well during the cycle. Dishes come out clean and clear without any noticeable residue. I also like that they are unscented and very easy to use. Good quality for the price and works exactly as expected. I would recommend them to families looking for a simple dishwasher detergent.

I’ve tried a wide range of dishwasher detergents in my search for truly clean, spotless dishes — pods, liquid, and powder. Even with pre-scrubbing, I was often disappointed. Dishes would come out cloudy, have a strange taste, or be covered in water spots. At the same time, I made a personal decision to stop using products with artificial dyes, fragrances, and harsher chemicals in my home, which narrowed my options even further. I decided to try Molly’s Suds unscented dishwasher pods, and I’ve been very happy with them. My dishes now come out clean and clear, with no residue, no water spots, and no off taste. Everything looks and feels genuinely clean, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results. For context: I’m on well water, don’t use any rinse aids or additional dishwasher products, and my dishwasher is a fairly average, mid-range model. Knowing all that, I’ve been impressed with how consistently well these pods perform. Pros: • Effective cleaning • Simple, safer ingredient list • No artificial dyes or fragrances • Affordable • Leaves no residue, water spots, or unpleasant taste Cons: • None so far I’ve included photos of the pods themselves and of my crystal-clear water glasses so you can see the lack of spots or residue for yourself.

An amazing product. Happy I purchased this. It leaves baby bottles and teats sparkling clean unlike other products that I have used that leave a film on the bottle teats.

I've been using these for a couple of weeks now, no complaints. They perform just as well as the large corporate brands, without the harmful chemicals.
