Advantages: smells better with than without

Disadvantages: expensive little devils

Our dishwasher is less than two moths old.

Inside it we found a box of salt, two powerball tablets a squirt or two of rinse aid and a Finish Citro Dishwasher Deodoriser (try saying that after a couple of sweet sherries!)

To be honest i was dubious of the thing, it doesnt look like much, a piece of soft yellow plastic (about the size of a pound coin) with an integrated hook for attaching to the top basket.

The first few uses of the machine were sans-citro and that usual stale-greasy smell thats commonly associated with dishwashers started to linger in the kitchen every time the door was opened, so in with the yellow peril.

The next wash presented us with a pseudo lemon freshness, which we could both smell through the house the next morning. Dont get me wrong this is not a taxi air freshener sort of smell, its subtler than that, and more soapy smelling to be mistaken for real lemons.

Well i was shocked when i saw them in the supermarket for nearly £2, but seeing as this one has lasted two months, and its still good, then i think one will make it into the basket quite comfortably.

P.S we suggested them to an aunty, and she was sceptical, but her dishwasher being older (and a little more odorous) has benefited a great deal from the addition of the Finish Citro Dishwasher Deodoriser


** UPDATE **

Almost overnight ours has lost its smell. It hasn?t faded away, its just gone.
The thing is we?ve just tried using Asda brand rinse aid, so i don?t know if this is the cause. We had been using finish rinse aid. I hope i haven?t killed it.
