I have this product and glad that I only have one pod left. These pods are too thick so that I cannot latch the dispenser cover. I have to literally hammer them to get them to flatten out in order to use them. I really don't know if you Platinum pods are the same or not so not sure what I should buy from the store.

First of all, the original packs that were blue worked amazing, went to buy them again and now they've switched over to the improved Platinum purple pods with the same price point. At first I was excited to an improved formula for the same price, but I can no longer say this is a good product... blue pods were excellent, first batch of the purple Platinum pods were great, but last month I bought my 2nd container of purple pods and it has been a nightmare... having terrible issues with cleaning. I thought it was my dishwasher so I ran washer specific cleaner thru it several times... then thought it was my pans, actually had one warranty replaced thinking something was wrong with it. It all started by making a total mess of not 1 but 2 newer style 8qt instant pot pans, it left a cloudy residue on the inside of the pan and scorch marks behind after being in the dishwasher with heated drying, plus rainbowing... had to use barkeepers to clean them back up... then my expensive Calphalon Premier anodized pans weren't even coming clean after using them for just pasta water, and if I used them to reheat foods with red sauce they were staining, and they were doing the same with rainbowing, can't use barkeepers on anodized pans but thankfully hand washing resolved the issue on those. However, even after correcting with handwashing and putting the anodized back thru the dishwasher, it would happen again, so I'll have to handwash those for now... I also noticed my Tupperware is staining terrible this month... now I question how clean the rest of my dishes have actually been getting. I'm gonna have to go back to the name brand and pay the money for it I suppose. If I come across the blue pods again, I will buy them because those were really great. I also have a newer LG dishwasher with Quadwash, so it's not machine causing the issue. Very bummed, this is priced well, and I had finally just converted from the name brand to only buying these when this happened, so no backup of the name brand to use until I get back to the store. Sams made it right with me though and issued a refund, so the customer service was great about it.

These don't work. The soap just stays in the dishwasher and all over the bottom.

Every dishwasher dispenser is square. Leave it to MM to make a large round pod that is difficult to put in the dispenser. The covering of the pod is thin, which results in breakage inside the container. MM has failed at offering their own dishwasher pods for several years now. 3 tries that weren't good. Come on MM, it's not that difficult.

Honestly, I think these little guys work just as great as the "name brand" ones. They help make dishwashing easy. I just scrape, load, toss one of these in and press play. Can't get much easier than that, unless I hire someone else to do it, I guess.

These are the most horrible purchase I have ever made at Sams. The plastic coating is still in dishwasher after cycle. The dishes do not even look clean. I have had to run 2 complete cycles for 1 load of dishes. You guys really should just pull these off the shelf.

I’m a frequent user of Member’s Mark products, and I’m usually very satisfied with their quality. However, my experience with the dishwasher pods hasn’t been positive. After using them, I’ve noticed a white powdery residue left on the glasses, which affects the final cleanliness. Additionally, I was expecting a fresh scent during the wash, but that’s not the case. I believe this product has potential for improvement, and I hope this feedback is taken into consideration to refine the formula. I trust the usual quality of the brand and will continue trying other products, but for now, I wouldn’t recommend this one.

If you consider Cascade Platinum Plus is 100% effective then I'd say that these Pacs are 98% effective after I've been using them for a couple weeks. Because these Pacs are so much more cheaper I just switched to these and stopped using the brand name.

I was a loyal Cascade Platinum Plus gal until I decided to try these out. I am thoroughly impressed! Spaghetti sauce pans, a casserole dish that held remnants of potatoes au gratin- these dishes are coming out of the dishwasher squeaky clean. Plus, you can’t beat the price!

This is the ONLY dishwasher tab that I can find, that doesn’t leave those awful perfume smells. I want to smell my food when I eat, not perfume on the dishes. One of the leading national brands used to be ok; but they changed THEIR formula, and THEY smell like perfume too! I was so afraid when Members Mark changed to the purple liquid in their tabs…..but they are still the same. Just a CLEAN smell, NOT perfume! Please don’t EVER stop making these!
