Dishwasher Tablets vs Pods vs Sheets: Which Is Best?

Dishwasher Tablets vs Pods vs Sheets: Which Is Best?

The dishwashing aisle offers everything from pods to tablets to dissolvable sheets, but not all options deliver the same results. The best choice depends on safety, residue, ingredients, and how clean you want your dishes to be.

Dishwasher Pods
Pods are popular, but they are wrapped in PVA, a dissolvable plastic that can turn into microplastics. Pods also often contain synthetic fragrance that can leave a film or aftertaste on dishes.

Dishwasher Sheets
Sheets are marketed as eco-friendly, but many still use PVA as a binder. They dissolve quickly but may not clean as deeply, especially on greasy or heavily loaded cycles.

Liquid Detergent
Liquids are easy to over-pour and often come in large plastic bottles. Many contain synthetic scents and fillers that may leave film on glassware.

Why Dishwasher Tablets Are the Better Choice
Lumehra’s Fragrance-Free Dishwasher Tablets are fully PVA-free and free from synthetic fragrance. Each tablet is pre-measured to ensure the right cleaning power without residue or plastic.
