Yes, the type of pod you use DOES make a difference. We have well water and this is the only one that gets our dishes clean without leaving hard water spots.

We have tried a variety of different options for our dishwasher. These work great to get our dishes clean as well as keeping our dishwasher itself looking good!

Best dishwasher detergent I've used. Works in small dishwashers though sometimes (1 time in 10) the packet sticks and I have to run the wash again. Also top rated by Consumer Reports.

Fast ship nice product live about 35 miles from sam's and shipping is easy and fast and this is a bigger package as opposed to other chain stores and local stores

Cleans the most stubborn residue on dishware. You can be certain that dishes removed from the dishwasher will be sparkling clean! A little pricy, but you get what you pay for.

It does everything it says it will and more I've put dry stuck on pots pans plates silverware everything has come clean amazing must use a good rinsing liquid to go with it it saves me a lot of time in the kitchen

Cascade Platinum really leaves your dishes clean & spot free. Even my glass ware is spot free & shiny. It has everything you need in one pod for sparkling dishes every time

My wife makes me buy these. I help with the dishes but haven't developed a preference over what stuff I put in with it. She has though so I buy these.
