I've tried most of the leading brands of green automatic dish powder and I think this is the best. One small container takes up hardly any room in your cabinets & lasts forever. It cleans well and doesn't leave any residue or any fake lemon scent.

I usually don't use powders, I have had lots of residue and really not too clean using a powder. This is the best powder I have used. It does clean the dishes and only once in a while leaves a residue. It does last a long time considering we only use the dishwasher 1 or 2 times a week, usually only after the weekend.

Overall its a good product but I really prefer liquids.

Last year (2007) near Earth Day, I was trying to be more environmentally aware. I was out of my normal gel dishwasher liquid and was scouring the aisles of the supermarket for a new eco-friendly product. As it was near Earth Day, this product was on sale, so I decided to try it. I was skeptical because I have a pre-teen son who's idea of rinsing the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher is shaking them over the garbage bin. Also, I had had unpleasant experiences with powder cleaners in the past.

This product exceeded my expectations. Every once in a while there is a little residue, but I think it's when the dishwasher just needs a plain rinse cycle. Another great sales feature was that the product lasted for months.The jar says 64 loads; I bought one jar in April and didn't need another one until November. On average we have 1-2 loads of dishes per week.
