Can you use this instead of a rinse aid, or do you still need a rinse aid in addition to this and your normal detergent?

we still use the rinse aid, we have glass ware that the rinse really helps.

I use this instead of another rinsing aid and it works fine to keep glasses sparkling clean. Otherwise they come out very spotty, if not coated with residue. Not sure if it is the water or that my machine just needs a cleaning with the "Power Up" every time. I only use less than a teaspoon every wash.

You will still need to use a rinse aid. I found this product harsh and unsatisfactory. In fact, this product ruined the finish on one of my dishwasher safe sheet enameled sheet pans that had been washed in my dishwasher multiple times with no problem. I only bought this product thinking it was similar to Glass Magic Rinse Aid this company discontinued. Big disappointment. Stopped using Finish products and went back to Cascade products.

You still need the rinse aid. It didnt work without it. It left my dishes cloudy without the rinse aid.

I use rinse aid all the time for best results. I did not try this product without rinse aid, but you can try. Let me know if it worked for you.

I still use both. Mainly because we have very hard water here in rural, NM. But, boy oh boy, does it work. For the first time I loved my dishwasher!! What great shine on dishes, glassware and silverware!! Patricia Hynson

I'm just going back to my good ole' Jet Dry rinse aid. I don't recommend this product at all since it's STILL leaving a powdery residue on any plastic or silicone ware, even though I haven't used it for weeks. I have a feeling that it won't be on the market long.

I use this (and only this) as my laundry detergent, I add baking soda as a booster. It's GREAT if you have sensitive skin (my grandsons do). It will not foam up like regular detergents do (don't add extra). if your laundry load is less than a full load, cut back on the washing soda. It doesn't leave any residue in your clothes like regular laundry detergent does.Hope this helps. I have been using this and only this for the past 4 years. No complaints!!!!!

I just purchased and installed the WM2016CW washer. As a complete newb to the front-loader universe, I set out to run the first load of laundry. I was rewarded with water and suds all over the floor. I called customer service in a panic and the rep told me I probably added too much detergent. Fair enough. Crisis averted. She then went on to lecture me that the WM2016CW is not meant to be used with liquid detergent (even if it's HE). She said it should only use powdered detergent. I referred her to the manual and LG's own website which explicitly state that you can use either in the machine. I'm not sure who to believe, but according to at least one LG customer service rep, the detergent of choice should be powdered.

It is recommended to use with a surfactant. It is not expensive and I used one I bought one from Amazon. I had great results.

I add it to the rinse cycle every time. I have noticed a huge difference and won't do laundry without it.

Definitely not to be used in replacement for a detergent. I have really hard water too (Florida) and use it as a booster. It says it does act as a water softener. I also use a fabric softener (liquid) and notice a difference. For the price, I say try it out & see. Worst case if you don't notice a difference, you haven't lost much money. And it can also be used as a household cleaner if you don't notice a difference. The box has a ton of instructions for use on it. Hope that helps!

Before I wash it each time, I hang it us and spray it with a hose. Then I only use minimal detergent. Yes. Use soap

Sorry, don't use as rinse. Never thought too. I'll give it a go now! I think I will try both ways.

We use it for our bedding sheets. Not quite sure if it really makes a difference or not. You add it on with your regular laundry detergent.

No..you are laying down the cleaning solution and then just sucking it up. You may want to go back later anddo a complete rinse if you think it is necessary.

Yes you rinse it out. Use like shampoo but it does not lather. You do not need to use a lot. Use as directed 8 to 10 pumps for medium length hair. This product has really improved the condition of my hair. Works just as well as Wen at affordable price.

You use this as regular laundry detergent. It just has Oxy Booster added to it. You don't need to add anything else to it. I absolutely love this detergent.

Yes, I use it in mine. I don't use very much. I had to experiment with the quantity of sal suds. I use a slightly more than half the amount of normal liquid laundry soap.

Pretty sure you can...I don't think there is any dependency between using the salt and using the detergent. I went for awhile without any salt in my dishwasher and the Somat detergent seemed to work just fine.

Chris, we use the same detergent we always did, but it was already "he" high efficiency. Most are these days, just look for the "he" on the bottle of both detergent and Softner

Yes, I just use .25 percent of my laundry soap and add 2 capfuls of Dettol. Does a wonderful job of removing bad doers.

If you mean instead of using milk then no. If you mean instead of washing it off at all, I would suggest yes but not sure what the label says as I'm finished with the bottle and currently without a bottle. The detergent is very similar to a light facial scrub.
