I’ve been trying to swap out harsher cleaning products where I can, and these Unscented Dishwasher Pods by AspenClean have been such a solid find. I love that they’re completely unscented—no fake “clean” smell left behind. They clean really well, even with everyday messes, and I haven’t noticed any cloudy residue on glassware. I also appreciate that they’re dye-free, zero plastic, vegan, and eco-friendly, so I don’t feel guilty tossing one in the dishwasher every night. If you’re trying to make more low-toxic swaps at home but still want something that actually works, these pods are a great option. Simple, effective, and feels good to use—definitely a repeat buy for our house. Read more
I have been gradually switching out all of our beauty/cleaning products with "cleaner" products and dishwasher detergent was next on my list. It is ewg verified which means no hidden ingredients - excellent start. My first purchase arrived and when I opened the Amazon packaging, the lid was off and all the pods were loose in the bag. I went thru that first container and have been very happy with the results so I decided to subscribe. My second order of these arrived and the container only had 4 pods in it! The Amazon packaging was well sealed, so either somebody swiped 24 pods and then returned an almost empty package OR someone in Amazon swiped them. Either way, based on these two experiences, I would suggest that this company may need to find a better way to seal their containers so they are more secure/tamper proof. The replacement order for the second one with only 4 pods in it arrived in perfect condition with all pods in tact. I will continue to use unless there are consistently issues with not receiving the correct amount of pods. Read more
I stopped using non eco-friendly dishwasher detergent years ago. I have tried many eco-friendly ones, and I ALWAYS count packaging in my choice. I will not buy plastic bags or big plastic tubs of even the most eco-friendly product. And until recently I was happy with Seventh Generation powder, the boxed version. But in the newest batch I was using, I had increasing problems with dishes coming clean and also a residue left on dishes. I was about to get a new washer, but instead looked into alternate detergents. I am now trying two--AspenClean and Dropps. Environmental Working Group rates Aspen more highly than Dropps. I am finding so far that both work very well. Dishes feel clean, no food residue, easy to use. AspenClean is kind of pricey but I'm willing to pay more to keep noxious chemicals out of the environment. If my evaluation changes as time goes on, I will update this review. Read more
My favorite thing about these dishwasher pods are that they are EWG verified. Do they work any better than the non-verified products? I honestly don't know. But they certainly work just as well and without all the toxic chemicals. During a time when our nation is beginning to become aware of the dangers of all the toxic chemicals in our food supply, cleaning products, and even in our clothes, it's nice to have options. I'd love to give these dishwasher pods five stars, however, two of the last six containers we've received in our Subscribe and Save have come with a few broken pods in the container. It's not just messy, but it's wasteful. We aren't getting all we paid for. It hasn't stopped us from purchasing them, though, and it shouldn't stop you from giving them a try if you are looking for a healthier way to clean your dishes at home. Read more
20 OUT OF 28 PODS CAME COMPLETELY EMPTY AGAIN!!!! I have had these on auto order for about 9 months. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THESE AS YOU ONLY GET 21/28 PODS UNOPENED ON MOST ORDERS. ALSO CANNOT BE RETURNED. Would give 0 stars. Literally come destroyed with powder everywhere and 6-10 open pods every time. Seemed to get a little better with only 5 or 6 pods opened the last couple orders, but now it’s back to 70% of the pods opened. Will need to find a new dishwasher pod to use. I was just too lazy to research another clean pod but this is the last time. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY ON THESE. Read more
I tried 3 different brands of clean dishwasher tabs and this one won out. The other 2 left a white film on my dishes and this one did not! I have hard water so I need the best but I don't want the harmful products. I like unscented, I'm not big into scented cleaning products, the best clean to me is nothing. These are easy to use and I like the packaging, first it's paper packaging and I don't need to buy a container and I don't get a box of powder instead of tabs like other brands. You won't be sorry you tried it! Read more
Does a good job but the pods arrived damaged, broken. There were only a few pods and a lot of powder in the box. After I used the pods I had to scoop the rest not knowing how much I should use. It has no scent which I like, but ‘cos of the scooping issue I won’t order it again. Read more
I use this product all of the time because of its natural ingredients. One of the pods was broken, though, so there was powder inside the container. The container wasn't dented or damaged, so not sure how the damage inside happened. Read more
