I rely heavily on my appliances to make cleaning efficient. In a given day I could run two loads of dishes when I’m preparing three meals. In the 2 1/2 years we’ve lived in our home, we’ve yet to clean our dishwasher or garbage disposal (Ack!). We simply didn’t know that our newish dishwasher and garbage disposal require cleaning to remove built-up residue and odors.

About a week ago, I popped in a Dishwasher & Disposal Cleaner from Affresh into both dish-washing locations. The dishwasher requires two tablets which are placed in the main detergent tray and at the bottom of the dishwasher. I then ran an empty load according to the directions. To clean the disposal, I placed a tablet into the drain, turned the hot water on, and ran the disposal for 15 seconds. I also ran hot water down the drain to complete the cleaning process.
Cleaning both areas was quick and uncomplicated and the directions were straightforward. It’s been a little over a week and I can still smell the lingering lemon scent. So far, I’ve been happy with the result with regards to odors but am not sure yet how to evaluate whether or not we’re keeping residues and build-up at bay. Stay tuned for an update.
By simply using the Dishwasher & Disposal Cleaner for a month, you’ll help keep odors and build-up at bay. A package of six tablets retails for $5.99 and is available at retailers nationwide.
