Dirty Labs | Dishwasher Detergent and Booster | Scent Free | 48 Loads (1 lb) | Ultra Clean, Spot Free, Quick Wash Optimized | Hyper Concentrated

I get consistently great results from the scent free version! Even with slightly hard water from my well my dishes come out clean and with minimal spotting. The size and texture of the mix seems to dissolve well since I don’t get leftover crumbles or build up in my dishwasher. I also appreciate that the container is tough enough to survive getting bumped around under my sink without spilling or leaking. The wooden measuring spoon is cute and I save them for various craft projects. The 1 lb size lasts for about 4 months in a household that runs the dishwasher approximately 4-5x per week so it is a good value. Really love that there is a scent free version that doesn’t make the kitchen smell during the wash cycle.

I used to use dishwasher pods but felt like my dishes were left with some residue and also always had a smell to them. Once I switched to Dirty Labs, the funky smell was gone, dishes are always clean and my dishwasher cleans better. The filter at the base is barely ever gunked up. Though this is pricer then most detergents it is worth it.

As a lover of the OG Dirty Labs scent for laundry detergent and how great it cleans, I thought give this a shot for dishes. I will say that initially it cleaned well but then a few cycles didn’t clean as well. However I did appreciate my dishes didn’t have like a soapy smell or taste from harsh chemicals in normal detergents for dishes. I found I had to put a half scoop of this powder in my pre wash compartment, the. A full scoop in my detergent spot. That prewash addition made a HUGE difference and have no issues whatsoever

So we got the Dirty Labs Dishwasher Detergent to try it out—and let me just say, it is bougie. It comes with a little wooden spoon (so cute!), and the whole vibe feels elevated compared to your average detergent. But of course, packaging means nothing if it doesn’t actually work—so we tested it out on two full sets of Dr. Brown’s baby bottle parts: one rinsed, one un-rinsed. See the video for more details :) PROS: • Amazing for baby bottles – Left no greasy residue, even on un-rinsed parts (*except nipples, which required some extra scrubbing afterwards, but I think that has more to do with the positioning of the nipples in the dishwasher vs the soap) • Super effective – Cleaned everything in the load, even stuck-on food • Non-toxic & fragrance-free – No harsh chemical smell or residue • Eco-conscious – Comes in recyclable cardboard with a wooden scoop • Optimized for quick wash cycles – Saves time without sacrificing cleanliness • Modern, enzyme-powered formula – Biobased ingredients that actually work • Guilt-free cleaning – No parabens, no bleach, no petroleum-based anything CONS: • Scoop takes getting used to – You measure manually, which may be new if you’re used to pods or tabs. I imagine manual scooping will probably yield less than the stated 48 loads since it’s impossible to scoop a consistent amount each time. • Pricier than conventional brands – But honestly, worth it for the safety and performance Dirty Labs Dishwasher Detergent completely exceeded our expectations. It cleaned both rinsed and un-rinsed baby bottles flawlessly, left no chemical residue, and made us feel totally confident about what we’re using to wash the things that go in our baby’s mouth. It’s gentle, effective, and made with truly thoughtful ingredients. If you're a parent—or just someone looking to ditch harsh chemicals—this one's worth the switch.

ZERO STAR REVIEW. This product was recommended as a “healthier” all natural detergent. I have gluten issues and a sensitive stomach. It got me researching how the chemicals in detergents can enter the body and disrupt the GI system. (Not here to sway anyone on this topic, this was just my journey). Dirty labs fit the bill right down to working well in hard water (which I have). I purchased this product twice now. I finished the first container and absolutely adored the results it gave me. In my mind it was definitely a 5 star review. Great results and no negatives. Since I was so happy with it I repurchased when I saw it on sale during Amazon days. No brainer, right? WRONG. THIS PRODUCT NEEDS BETTER QUALITY CONTROL. The new container gives vastly different results. I have white residue streaking all of my silverware, glasses, bowls….its everywhere. It became noticeable after the third use. I continued using the product for several washes and It gets worse with each use. The powder on everything is visible on fingers when you touch it and the streaks DO NOT COME OFF no matter how much I soak and scrub it. Most of my silverware is ruined. It’s now pitting/spotting, but that’s the least of my concerns. My pets bowls were washed in this. Being white, you can’t see the signs. But both of my Siberian Forest cats became severely sick two weeks ago. They stopped eating for almost a week, requiring professional attention to stop their vomiting and deal with the resulting electrolyte imbalances. Thankfully they are recovering now. I purchased new slow feeder bowls for them since they will not go near their old bowls. Smart cats. My decision to use this product impacted the health of my fur babies for which I will always carry guilt. It was purely luck I was not affected. I have been using the leftover paper plates so none of my good plates were used/washed with the second container and I did not consume it like my cats did. It is not often I write a harsh or extremely negative review for a product. I try to analyze the good and the bad. But when the health of a pet is jeopardized by a product, it needs to be shared. (For reference, my cats are a large breed: weighing in at 17lb and 14lb). Clearly the quality control is not what it needs to be with this product. One batch is perfect and the next is horrible. I do not trust this brand and will no longer use any of their products. I tossed all of their products in the trash before writing this.
