This is a complaint and a concern. I was on hold for 12 minutes tonight to express my concern. The container of cascade that I am presently using is very liquid and clear. The new container is white and very thick. My concern is - is there something missing in my first container that would effect the cleaning of my dishes or perhaps effect me. I am concern if I should continue using the first bottle. There is definately a difference in the two containers and they are the same product.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been on the hunt for a lower cost dishwasher detergent - tried them all and keep coming back to Cascade. It's not a deal if you have to run the dishes through a 2nd time but with Cascade Platinum ActionPacs my dishes come out sparkling the first time, every time!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I don't need to pre-wash everything before running the dishwasher. Having five children I run the dishwasher at least once a day. Having a quality product that is effective is important to me. I feel this product is a superior choice when it comes to dishwasher detergent.

Our dishes used to come out with specks of dishwasher detergent still stuck on. We literally thought our brand new dishwasher was defective. We had the maintenance guy out, turned the water temperature up, pre-washed, everything. I finally broke down and got some Cascade Complete Packs, and haven't looked back. The dishes come clean, even without rinsing. I only wish I would have done this sooner. The Mr. tries to find something wrong with them now, but can't find anything to complain about. I win!

I used to use Finish but I noticed the powder tabs sometimes left a white residue on items in the dishwasher. After testing water temp and other things suggested by the manufacturer of the dishwasher it was determined it was the dishwashing tabs so I switched to Casade..and how neat I thought, I found the action pacs with no perfume!! Well, all my pans now have oxidized on the outside to a dull metal. These are pans that I have had for many years and never did this with Finish or the normal Casade that I used years ago. I am extremely angry as you can imagine, as this basically ruined all my pans. I have at least 10 cookie sheets and pizza pans that are now trash in addition to the exterior on my regular saucepans. So this is a warning to watch any aluminum pans if you are using Cascade Action Tabs Pure Essentials Perfume free, for damage to your pans. And no, there is nothing that will restore the pans.

I really like the convenience of just dropping in a pack and pushing start, however I sure wish these were sold in bigger packages, I feel like I am always running out. Walmart sells them in packs of 20 (i think) and it would make more sense if there were packs of 30. I usually run the dishwasher 1x/day!!! Sams usually has a bucket of 60 (i think), but I hate going there just for dishwasher tabs!!! But, that said, I still buy them!

Effectiveness: 5/5* - Tough food residue doesn't stand a chance! *Scent: 4.5/5* - Fresh and clean, with a pleasant lingering aroma. *Value: 4.5/5* - Convenient and affordable, great value for the price. *Packaging: 5/5* - Easy to use, single-dose packets are perfect for each load. *Cleaning Power: 5/5* - Grease and grime disappear like magic! Overall, Cascade dishwash pods are a reliable and effective choice for sparkling clean dishes!

We bought a new dishwasher, We decided to buy and try the Cascade complete all-in-1 actionpacs. Well we were not very Impressed at ALL. If you wash the dishes twice then it works very well. If you Pre-rinse then everything comes out very well. We won't be buying these or using them in the Future at All...So we will be going back to our other product..

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] In comparison to other brands that I have tried, Cascade Platinum Action Paks works better in my dishwasher. However, I do use 2 packets each wash. Then sometimes, skillets or pots have to be rewashed by hand.

The first time I used the Cascade Complete Pacs, I went to unload the dishswasher and the first two plates I took out were still very dirty with food caked on them?? My initial reaction was that I forgot to run the dishwasher. I looked and the pac was gone, therefore I knew the cycle had completed. I went back to my old liquid dishwashing deteregent. Then a few days later, I tried the pacs again. Same result, dishes still dirty. I cannot recommend this product to anyone.
