Eugene! Blame Consumer Reports for the disappearance of Member's Mark from Sam's Club! Got top rated in February 2021 issue. Typical of Sam's Club though... never enough attention to longevity of a house named brand...Greg
 
I cannot tolerate any scents on my dishes or plastics so I use only unscented or very lightly scented products. I'm currently using Seventh Generation powder with Lemi Shine rinse aid and am getting excellent results. Everything comes out perfectly clean, smooth and shiny.

I was previously using Trader Joe's powder and had to stop due to not being able to get it delivered during the pandemic. I switched to Seventh Generation and am glad I did. Everything is cleaner and I no longer have that weird occasional residue on the bottom of my dishwasher.

I am slightly worried powder detergents will be discontinued soon. I found pods/tabs to be a bit too strong for my dishes and end up leaving everything smelling fishy. Anyone else have that occasional fishy or wet dog smell from their dishes? It can be worse when my windows are open. So strange...
 
I still use the Finish jet dry baskets in my powerclean, I’m not convinced the liquid works it never has in this dishwasher because our water is so disgusting, it’s city. Since I’ve switched from using liquid to now the solid baskets, there is a noticeable difference in spotting. For heavy loads I’ll use the Finish Quantom with a cascade gel pre rinse, and for normal I’ll just add gel to each cup.

I think I’m definitely going to try some of the ones you guys listed! They look fun to try
 
If anyone still remembers those classics, I buy the baskets on EBay and the most recent boxes I’ve received were from 2004, and 1998. Absolutely amazing and incredible that people still have over/back stock of these classic products.
