Lemi Shine Natural Dish Detergent Booster - 10 oz (8 Pack)

Lemishine greatly improved my Bosch dishwasher’s performance. My dishes weren’t getting clean, glasses were cloudy or spotted, and plates felt like they had soap residue. With Lemishine, now everything is sparking clean! Easy to use, just pour a small amount into the bottom of your dishwasher, load your favorite dishwasher tab and run your cycle. Glasses will be spotless! And we have VERY hard well water! No odor, no sticky film, just clean dishes. Might add a bit to the cost of each cycle, but everything including the stainless steel pans comes out sparkling and I don’t have to wipe the glasses after the wash! I highly recommend!

It actually works. I kept having hard water calcium deposits on my dishes, leaving really grimy feeling lines. Impossible to wash off. Lemi Shine did the job, my dishes are spotless!

What is irritating is the store I always bought this from no longer carries. Guys listen, this really works with hard water! Not only cleans dishes but keeps the dishwasher shiny! An apt manager suggested this to use a long time ago. Don’t quit making this!!!

We have hard water, and this has become a must-have in our house. We use it every time we run the dishwasher, and it makes a noticeable difference in keeping our dishes and glasses spot-free. It’s one of those products we make sure we never run out of. If you struggle with water spots from hard water, I definitely recommend giving this a try.

I got this today and couldn’t wait to test if it worked as promised. It absolutely does! I used it on some glasses with stubborn hard water residue, waited about half an hour, and when I took them out, they were crystal clear. It was amazing and the smell is quite pleasant. Now I’m excited to tackle all my dishes with hard water residue. Fantastic product—I’ll definitely keep buying it.

Since they remove phosphorous from dishwasher detergent, suddenly everything in my dishwasher was coming out coated with a gritty white film (we have very hard water). Enter Lemishine & Voila! Shiny clean dishes again! HOWEVER... Be very careful what you wash in the dishwasher with it. The citric acid will destroy any finish on enameled cookware & after awhile you may notice that your dishes look dull & don't feel as smooth as they used to. Lemishine slowly erodes the finish on some dishes. I have used Lemishine for over a decade & have found it cleans one set of my dishes perfectly, but a different set is losing its finish & are becoming dull & rough. Hand cleaning doesn't fix the damage. The citric acid slowly ate it away. It also neatly wiped off the design on some glassware I was dumb enough to put in the dishwasher. I guess the answer is to not use this with anything you really care about. I'm looking for an alternative hard water treatment & I'll switch if I can find one that does the job without citric acid, but so far this does the best job & I'm now washing more dishes by hand.

Amazing change. Give this product a try. I bought Lemi Shine out of frustration, but was thinking it wouldn’t make much difference. However, it made a HUGE difference! (For reference, our dishwasher is a GE Profile and our water utility hardness is 5.6 Grains Per Gallon. Our issue started somewhat recently.) We switched from using Cascade detergent pods to powdered detergent for reasons I didn’t quite agree with (a concern about undissolved casings gumming up plumbing and price in general). Within a week, there were already heavy deposits throughout the dishwasher and within a couple weeks or so, the dishwasher went from looking clean to looking like it was a decade old from all the white deposits. Previous to this, the dishwasher still looked mostly new inside, despite being a couple years old or so. Our water is hard, but it was rather unbelievable to see such a rapid change in such a small amount of time. Even the sliders were starting to sound and feel a bit grindy. Our GE Profile’s user manual had a small chart for Grains Per Gallon to Cups of Detergent. GPG is a measure of water hardness (i.e. dissolved calcium in the water). I looked up the GPG in our area (5.6) on the water utility’s site and I started using less powdered detergent per the chart, but that made no difference over the course of a few more weeks. Adding Jet Dry wasn’t making a difference either (which is normally in the pods). I had no intention of adding another weekly chore of scrubbing it out by hand. Only because citric acid helps with so many other issues, did I try to give it a go here. And what a difference! Per Lemi Shine’s instructions, I ran the machine empty with a full detergent cap of Lemi. I was expecting to be disappointed when I opened the door, but I was floored by how drastic the difference was. The most drastic change was to the plastics. It was a night and day shift from only the one cycle. They went from being heavily soiled with deposits, to looking renewed. The metal areas of the machine still had deposits, which I resolved to remove by hand, but I first chose to see what would happen to those as well after extended use of Lemi Shine. I next ran all of our plastic cooking utensils and metal pet dishes the same way and got the same result: they were all back to looking the way they used to be. After a bit more than a month now, the machine is back to looking the way it used to be before we made the change to powdered detergent and I never had to spend an entire day scrubbing it out. I'd intended to get weekly photos, but the ones I posted will still make the change clear. We now fill the detergent cap about 1/4-1/3 full with Cascade Complete powder, close the cap and fill the Pre-Wash depression on the cap with Lemi Shine. Highly recommend this product. If you’re going through this issue, at least give this a chance.

I wish I took a before pic. Besides my glasses looking cloudy, the stainless steel on the inside door of my dishwasher started making my dishwasher look old and ugly. I researched with AI (lol) why my glasses looked cloudy, I thought I was consuming dishwasher detergent that was not rinsing properly. AI said to use vinegar on my glasses to test for minerals caused by my city water, which the vinegar removed it easily. AI said it aint a rinsing problem, it was caused by minerals, and recommended a product like Lemi Shine. The inside of my dishwasher immediately looks new again, the glasses look great. A before and after pic would have been great, but who thinks to take a pic of the inside of their dishwasher, and who would think Lemi Shine would make a day-and-night difference immediately? 5 star all the way!!!

Works great. Been using for a couple years. Really helps if you are in a hard water area. I use powder detergent. No phosphates any more. And with the addition of the Leno Shine - perfectly clean glasses and dishes

Great stuff

We were blaming the (very) old dishwasher in the house that we purchased for the streaks and cloudiness on our dishes. But when we replaced the dishwasher, we found we had the same issue and discovered that the water is really hard here. The reviews on this product were impressive although I did hesitate due to the price, but I'm very happy that I took the plunge and tried it. With the very first use, the glasses are now shiny and clear and the cutlery is starting to come back to its normal shine.

Can't live without this stuff for our dishwasher! We have terribly hard water and was at the point of washing it out by hand every 3-4weeks due to everything slowly clogging dut to mineral build up. No products locally available and found this. Made our dishwasher like new again and works great! I wish I had a before and after photo! I use a bit with every load to prevent the build up and dishes come out nice and clear!

Great product for the dishwasher
