*contest closed*FINISH Quantum and Jet-Dry *Giveaway*
Wednesday, April 08, 2009 Posted by The Mom Jen
We've been using the same dishwashing detergent for about 13 years. As long as we've been married. No kidding. It's what both our parents used. Not much fanfare, the dishes are clean, we're happy.We were sent Finish Quantum to sample and I wasn't expecting a huge change, with our dishwasher itself being very old, but why not. We also are sampling Jet-Dry Turbo, something we never have tried before. To be honest our dishes don't get put away immediately after a washing so drying time hasn't been an issue for us.
A fear I have going into the review is that i'm very sensitive to taste and smell. If I were to go to have my morning cup of coffee and my mug has a scent or taste of detergent, I wouldn't be pleased. Luckily that did not occur. Our dishes were clean, the leftover cheese we purposely left on some plates and a baking dish was scrubbed away, and our glasses were as sparkly as ever!
Promotional info:
Finish® Quantum is an innovative new automatic dishwashing detergent designed for consumers who want perfect dishes every time they wash. Finish®, the new name for Electrasol®, delivers a clean superior to the leading dishwashing detergent. Finish® Quantum leaves nothing behind but the shine helping users experience the perfection they deserve in their everyday routines.
Finish® Quantum has a multi-Chamber system that is pre-measured and wrapper free. This technology separates 3 powerful active ingredients, releasing them when needed in the dishwashing cycle.
1. Powerball® with Jet-Dry® Gel for an amazing shine
2. Powermax™ Bleach removes stains like tea and coffee
3. Powerful Enzymes soften burnt-on food like lasagna
It’s only dishwashing, but you get perfection every time you wash, that is why it’s the #1 recommended brand by more dishwasher brands.
1 Pack of 12ct Finish® Quantum is $4.99.
Enter to win a Kitchen Aide dishwasher, diamond jewelry, or a year supply of FINISH products at The Diamond Standard of Diswashing website!
I have a great giveaway for my readers as well!

It's actually cleaning the windows/sliders, because my cats scratch at the sliders to be let in, so their muddy paws are all over the glass, and it has to be cleaned constantly.

Mopping! There's too much prep involved (picking up and moving garbage cans, chairs, shaking out rugs, sweeping, etc) and it seems as soon as I'm done and have everything put back where it goes, something is spilled or dropped and it needs to be done all over again!
