The dishwasher is something in our kitchen that I don’t give a lot of thought to. Although Sarah will tell you I’m particular about how it’s loaded (who knew?); I load it up and empty it and that’s the end of that. I use a variety of dishwasher detergents, sticking with major brands, and a few times a year, I buy Jet Dry. Jet Dry is a necessary evil which seems to help immensely with getting our glassware crystal clear, instead of spotty, but it’s so expensive, I really hate having to buy it, in addition to the regular detergent. It makes me think my dishwasher is incredibly high maintenance, but it’s certainly better than having to wash everything by hand (especially this weekend as I’m prepping for our End of School Year Rainbow Cake Party!).
When Mom Central Consulting asked if I could give Cascade Platinum a try, I figured I had nothing to lose. I’m, of course, familiar with Cascade products, and use them often, but Cascade Platinum was new-to-me (it’s only been available since February). First off, I’m partial to the gel pac packaging, and prefer them over messing with the liquids and powders. Although the gel pacs can certainly be punctured, I just feel that with kids and pets in the house, they are less prone to problems (powder spillage, liquid leaking, etc.), and ever since the pac packaging came on the market, it has been my go-to.
So makes this one better? Or different?
