Not what it use to be!

I have been using Cascade for 34 yrs and have never considered using anything else. Until now, the product does not clean like it use to, so if I am only going to get some of my dishes clean, I could use any brand. I dont know what has changed about Cascade but I can tell you loud and clear change it back! Sometimes change is not for the better and this is one of those times. I have always had clean dishes before but more and more I am either rewashing or hand washing some dishes each wash. And as I stated earlier if I am going to to that I can use any brand. Please change it back!!!

I can't drink out of my coffee cups because they smell like soap.

I don't know what you changed, but soap sticks on my glasses and anything plastic that I put in the dishwasher. I thought my dishwasher didn't rinse and I ran everything through again, but the dishes still smelled like soap. I will go back to the old liquid instead of the new pouches.

THE WORST!!!

I am terribly disapointed in this product! I have used Cascade powder for years. This formula repaced the orginal powder formula I'd been using. I've used it 2 times . My dishes come out with a film. I've checked my diswasher and all is well including the jet-dry container. I used the last of the old formula this week and the dishes were sparkling clean. This new formula is not working!! I've tried to use less and the poor results are the same. I can't wait for P&G to be open so I may speak in person to someone about the problem!

Product did not clean because it was crstallized

I have always used Cascade until this summer a bought a bottle of liquid Cascade. It was crystallized and would not mix together even with violent shaking. I decided to give it another try because of loyalty if nothing else but the next bottle was the same. Dishes did not come out clean but with a cloudy look to the glasses.

not happy

i was very disappointed with the product. I ran the dishwasher twice and finally just broke the little package open. It kinda opened a little bit the second time but it was still all together. I do not believe I will ever try this again. I though being cascade it would be good (it looked like a good idea) but I obviously was wrong.

Awful smell.

Amazing clean but smell awful. Even after extra rinse the smell is blatant. Ruined many hot drinks and meals already. If the blue in the pack really is a the scent and not a gimmick I'll try popping and draining that part. My dishwasher is near new and sparkling clean, no issue with the appliance. My water isn't hard, my dishes are near new. No reason to blame anything other than these packs. Other detergents work fine. Don't even really understand the scent thing… why? It's not furniture.. why do dishes need to smell? If I could return I would, likely chucked the receipt weeks ago when I hadn't realized these were a dud.

Shameful Product

I have used Cascade for YEARS and was very satisfied with the way it cleaned the dishes. This phosphate free product was put on the market, I bought 2 boxes just figuring the Cascade Product would clean as well. Well, was I totally DISAPPOINTED. It leaves a film on everything and even discolors some. No, it is not the dishwasher, it is the product. So we are out the price of 2 large boxes and I am still having to wash everything that comes out of the dishwasher. It is not the price of the product, it is the fact I will have to throw it out and find another dishwasher product I can count on.

White cloudy film all over my dishes

I have used Cascade for many years and now it leaves a white coating on all my dishes and silverware. Not sure if I will be able to get it all off by hand washing. I am very disappointed and will be switching products. On the box, it advertizes "rinses away residue, leaves dishes sparkling." This is not true. Something has changed drastically with this product.

This product does not dissolve in the dishwasher.

For 2 straight cycles and the same load of dishes, the cascade action pack did not dissolve. My dishwasher has been running for 3 hours now, 2 cascade packs thrown up for opening but the powder doesn't dissolve and just sticks to the inside of the dishwasher door. For someone like myself who pinches pennies in order to put food on my plate doesn't have the money to waste on soap I have to throw away and 3 plus hours of the dishwasher constantly running. I would love my money back so I can purchase a product that actually works and doesn't waste my electricity.

Best clean - Hands down!

We used to use Finish Powerball and Jet Dry Rinse Aid....Then we tried Cascade ActionPacs...No matter what we did, we had hard water stains, smudges, and lefton food more often than not. Then I heard about Cascade Platinum and tried it. Let me tell you, we were blown away after the very first use. The glasses no longer looked cloudy, the coffee mugs didn't have a tint anymore. This stuff is legit and worth the price!
