Tools and Hardware Reviews of Glisten Dishwasher Cleaner

Customer Review: FANTASTIC PRODUCT
Summary: 5 Stars

We bought a brand new dishwasher with a stainless steel interior a few months ago. Our water comes from a well, and it didn't take long before the water created unsightly stains on the inside of our dishwasher even though we have a water treatment system. I tried a few home remedies that didn't work at all, then searched on line and found Glisten. The reviews seemed positive so I looked for the product locally and couldn't find it (in the Denver area). I ordered a few packets on line to see if it would work. I had read that Glisten could also clean the chalky stains that appear on some dishes and glasses. I put one glass and one dish in the dishwasher the first time I used Glisten. The dishwasher looks brand new again and the dish, which has brown trim which looked particularly chalky, is clean again. Fantastic product. Did exactly what it promised to do. I discovered that Phelphs Industries, which is still listed on the label of the packets I received, sold the company to Summit Industries about a year ago. I hope they keep making this product!

Customer Review: Didn't need a repair man
Summary: 5 Stars

I am so glad I found this product. I have been having problems with my dishwasher for several weeks. The water would not competely drain out of the bottom. If I didn't empty out the water competely then my dishes would have residual gunk on them. YUCK! I took apart the hoses to look for clogs etc and couldn't find any. I was finally ready to call the repair man. The week before I had looked up this product and bought it...just to clean the dishwasher. I thought I'd use it before the repair man came because it had started to smell. Much to my delight after one use...all the water was gone! It was clean and bright and empty! No need for an expensive repair man! I had my dishwasher back and it has worked great ever since! I normally do not write reviews but this product is amazing! It saved me hundreds! Not only that, but it also did what it said it would by making my dishwasher sparkle! I'd recommend it to anyone!

Customer Review: Cheaper Alternatives Work Just As Well
Summary: 3 Stars

I like everything about Glisten except the cost. Glisten removes hardwater stains (deposits of calcium, magnesium and iron) by using citric acid as its active ingredient. White vinegar also removes hardwater stains because(you guessed it) it's acidic, although the concentration is too weak to do a perfect job. Bleach and baking soda don't work because they are alkaline. Looking for a cheaper version of Glisten? Run your dishwasher with the detergent cup filled with citric acid crystals. You can pay buy citric acid crystals direct from GE and Maytag (part# WD35X151), but it's smarter to shop the internet. Citric acid crystals are widely available on the internet for 1/10th the cost of Glisten (for example, google National Chemical Inc.). Citric acid is also sold as "sour salt" in the canning or spice section of the supermarket, but may be expensive in such small quantities.

Customer Review: Better Than Homemade Cleaners
Summary: 5 Stars

For some, running vinegar through a dishwashing cycle may be enough to clean the hard water deposits from the dishwasher's interior, but for me Glisten was a substantial improvement over the various home remedies I've tried. I live in an area of very hard water, and the spray jets in my dishwasher clog up pretty frequently. Glisten cleans everything with just one application. Before I realized it was calcium deposits clogging up the dishwasher, I'd had a repairman come out to see what was causing the dishes to stay dirty even after running them through full cycles. The repairman cleaned the entire interior by hand. The results I've had with Glisten are as good as I had after that manual cleaning. It's worth trying vinegar or lemon juice or some other low-cost remedy to see if that does an adequate job on your dishwasher. If it doesn't, then Glisten is well worth the cost.

Customer Review: The Best Dishwashing cleaner THERE IS
Summary: 5 Stars

Hi I have a dishwasher over 6 years old, and it is stainless steel inside.
I have called the manufacturer to find out how to get all the dull glaze and
residue off of it because it leaves my dishes the same way a cloudy film. I have
tried all kinds for cleaning the inside until Glisten. I was amazed on how well it worked. I took all the cloudy residue and grim off. I was so pleased it lookes great the stuggle to get this thing cleaned was hard. I have tried everything mentioned on the reviews and the net for natural cleaning also.
and the few brands out there to clean the inside of the diswasher.

Thank you so much for your product now my dishwasher is looking good and my
dishes are cleaner too.

Great stuff,

Judy
