Lemi Shine Garbage Disposal Cleaner and Deodorizer - (2 Count)

I'm giving this a 5 even though it was a little pricey (but I bought the single packet to try it out, which is way more cost per use. I've added the 8 pack to my subscribe and save which comes out to a MUCH better price), and even though it didn't take all of the hard water stains off (our dishwasher was COATED in hard water stains. It was nuts) because it was starting from a huge amount of buildup and it did remove a LOT of the buildup. I took a bunch of before and after photos so you can see the amount of lift this one packet did. We used to use a dishwasher cleaning packet (different brand, and it wasn't cheap either) every month, and then I just sort of petered out because I didn't feel like that was helping much. We live in the mountains and we have hard water. And I mean HARD water - minerals galore. It's great for many reasons and the water straight from the tap is clean, tasty and crisp, but it does make some things a pain in the butt: like the dishwasher, washing machine, shower heads, sous vide machine... anything with water in it a lot.... getting all kinds of white hard water stains and plugging up. We're able to use vinegar on small things like soaking shower heads and sous vide, but the dishwasher is a much bigger complicated project. I remembered my folks using oxalic acid back in the day in their dishwasher, so I started looking into it and it's actually not good to do that (you can read up on it with a quick search, oxalic acid is no longer an option as far as I'm concerned). So that leads me to this product which includes citric acid. I use citric acid in cooking and beauty products - it's super safe, so I was very interested in this. It's very easy to use; you simply tear open the packet and dump the powder into the bottom of the dishwasher and run a normal cycle. I was blown away by the amount of hard water stains that came off. Like I said, I immediately added the 8 pack of these to our Subscribe and Save and plan to use one per month now. Before I used this, the hard water buildup was so bad that the dishes were coming out cloudy as well. The first dishwash I did after cleaning the dishwasher with this packet produced super clear clean dishes. It was very effective; it removed a ton of buildup, no white blotchy color on them, and there was no lingering residue from the cleaner. No weird smell or taste on the dishes or anything like that. Just super clean. I think that regular use with these pouches will probably take off even more buildup over time. Very impressed.

Hello there! If you're looking at this product, chances are you have white mineral buildup in your dishwasher, cloudy dishes, or a machine that does not smell as fresh as it should. I've been using Lemi Shine Dishwasher Cleaner for about five years, and it has become a regular part of my dishwasher maintenance routine. The water where I live is quite hard, so over time I start noticing mineral buildup and my dishes don't come out as clean as they should. Whenever that happens, a packet of Lemi Shine usually gets everything back on track. I typically use it about once a month, give or take, and it helps keep the dishwasher running well even though we use it every day. The 8 pack lasts for 8-9 months since I use it about once a month. I also like that it is available through Subscribe & Save, so it's there when you need it. What I like most is that it uses citric acid. The lemon scent smells clean and fresh without being too strong. It is also really easy to use since you just pour in a packet and run a cycle with no dishes in the dishwasher. That is all you have to do. After using it consistently for years, I've found it helps reduce hard water buildup, keeps the dishwasher smelling fresh, and seems to help dishes come out cleaner. For me, it is one of those simple products that just works. Plain and simple. If you have hard water or want to keep your dishwasher in good shape, I'd highly recommend giving this product a try!

I’ve been using Lemi Shine Dishwasher Cleaner for a few months now and honestly didn’t realize how much buildup my dishwasher had until I tried this. We have pretty hard water, and I was starting to notice cloudy dishes and a slight smell in the machine. After the first use, there was a noticeable difference—dishes came out cleaner and the dishwasher itself smelled fresh. I like that it uses citric acid instead of harsh chemicals. The lemon scent is light and not overpowering, which I appreciate. It’s also super easy to use—just dump a packet in and run a cycle. No mess, no extra steps. The 8-pack is a great value too. I’ve just been using it about once a month and it seems to keep everything running well. Definitely feels like it’s helping with the hard water buildup. Overall, I’d recommend it if you’re dealing with hard water or just want to keep your dishwasher clean and smelling good.

This Lemi Shine Appliance Cleaner & Deodorizer has been a dependable part of our home maintenance routine over the years. It does a solid job tackling buildup and odors in the dishwasher, washing machine, and garbage disposal, especially in a home with hard water where residue tends to show up quickly. The citric acid formula feels effective without being overly harsh, and I like that it leaves appliances smelling fresh instead of chemically heavy. I’ve used it regularly as part of monthly maintenance, and it consistently helps keep things running cleaner between deep cleans. Over time, it’s become one of those “just keep it on hand” products that quietly does its job well.

Product arrived timely and in great condition! Wish Lemi Shine still sold the boxes with multiple packs of “appliance cleaner” rather than individual packs as “dishwasher” and “washing machine “ cleaner. It’s much more expensive to buy the individual packs of cleaner. Thanks for helping keep my appliances clean and running efficiently at a reasonable price!

I wanted to try a different washing machine cleaner. The one I used in the past seemed to work but I never felt like it did a great job. After reading a lot of reviews, I found Lemi Shine. I figured it was worth a try. I believe this product is doing a better job of cleaning my washing machine. In addition to the cleaning powder, it also includes a wiping cloth. Nice touch. I believe my washing machine is much cleaner now. Both from a scent and visual perspective. I liked the product enough that I also purchased their dish washer cleaner.

Great product, would buy it again. Easy to use and it does what it says.

The outer product box arrived crushed, torn, and heavily taped, which was disappointing. However, the individual cleaning packets inside were intact and usable, and the product worked as expected. Better packaging would help prevent damage during shipping

Have only tried a few times but seems to help with buildup on glassware. Leaves the machine sparkling.

It foamed and churned, frothed and roiled, and delved into an area few dare to venture! It carried itself into battle with a refreshing scent.

Venía rota la caja, parchada con diurex y el producto incompleto

Have been dealing with a funky smelling dishwasher for a while and tried a number of different things. I used two packets for the initial clean and have to say it seems to work pretty well! I was impressed that it was significantly improved after just the one use. I will keep using.

Very expensive product Only one sachet I was expecting more So I sent it back
