    Honestly, I wasn’t convinced they’d stack up favorably against the leading brand. But with a wonderfully clean & sparkly wash I’m Impressed!
    I LOVE not having to peel them out of a packet.
    I DONT have a sink in my kitchen (long story) & Bo (my Bosch DW is my best mate) he handles a LOT with 5 kids, 2 parents, a grandma, a grandson & various friends. Poor Bo gets overworked & sadly, sometimes even overfilled. I would’ve thought that he may have been in that sad state last night but thismorning when I unpacked the cutlery was as shiny as the saucepans, plates & coffee cups. I couldn’t find any residue on anything
    Highly Recommended I’ll update in a week or so when we’ve settled into the new regime ;-)

    Used the first trial tablet this morning and really, really impressed with the results.
    We currently use another brand and were convinced (after much trial and error with dishwasher tablets) that they were the best on the market, we have been pleasantly surprised with Woolworths All in 1.

    We had used another brand which boasted the dissolvable wrapper, however we always found the mushy, half dissolved wrapper floating somewhere in the dishwasher or worse stuck on one of our freshly cleaned plates/glasses.
    This did not happen with Woolworths select All in 1. I’ve just unloaded the dishwasher and searched high and low for wrapper residue and cannot find any.
    Well done on making a truly dissolvable wrapper!!

    Our plates, glasses and tupperware are all very clean, glasses really quite shiny.
    We have a 15 month old daughter, so we have lots of bowls, cups, plates with stuck on food – all of which has been removed in the wash.
    No residual powder on anything – which has been happening with our current brand of tablets. No streaking on glass or pools of powdered water (that sometimes happens in the bottom of tea cups).
    The aroma/scent is also nice, I opened the dishwasher just after it had finished when it was still all steamy and the smell was nice, a clean smell. Not incipit or over powering like some cleaning products.

    I will update again after a few more washes and once I’ve got feedback from friends using the trial packs.

    forgot to add: i’ve always used liquid, never tablets. i don’t like powder cause it usually leaves some traces on things (as if it doesn’t disolve properly). not problems with this disolving.

    I cannot praise these tablets enough!! I was starting to give up on my dishwasher and was hand washing everything because I was sick of my dishes coming out with powder on them or even worse still food! I only usually use liquid because when I once used a tablet I found it sitting at the bottom of my dishwasher undissolved and it put me off totally! But no, not with Woolworths select! My dishes came out sparkling, couldnt even tell I used a tablet! And the easy packaging Was brilliant no rubbish at all! And my two year old like to help so she loved that she was able to put the tablet in and close the panel! She asked to do it again tonight!
    I will definatley be buying this product again! And I have not heard a negative comment from any of my friends that I gave the samples to! They’ve asked me if I had any more!! But a really great product that I dont have a negative thing to say about! Thumbs up!!!

    I received my samples last week, I have used 3 tablets, and love them! I usually use a homebrand tablet, and always have trouble getting the packaging undone. So being able to just throw the whole thing in packet and all is fantastic!
    I also love the little sample packs to be able to share around with my friends

    I use my dishwasher a LOT, and have used around 6 of the tablets already. After using another brand of tablets that you have to unwrap, I love the fact that these can just be put straight into the dishwasher, without fumbling and having to unwrap and get your skin in contact with the chemicals. It is easy and convenient. They also wash really well, and all the dishes come out clean, and the dishwasher smells nice. I handed out the samples at work (I work with a lot of Mums, being a theatre nurse) and most people had not used the tablets before and were very impressed at how convenient they were. Overall, I would definately buy this product because of its convenience and its performance.

    I must admit I was a little sceptical about using these “generic” branded washing tablets as opposed to my trusted Finish brand. But was willing to give it a go, my purse was sure impressed with this decision, as they are cheaper then the premium version.
    As a mother of three young boys I needed quality and performance in one and these little babies had that and more.
    I loved (like many others I am sure) the convenient packaging that dissolved and saved you having to unwrap the often fiddling packet! Woolworths obviously listened to its consumers and made a product which crosses all the box’s.
    Overall opinion- I have now changed my brand after many years of loyal service to Woolworths Select brand tablets, my budget and dish’s both thank me for this 8)
    Highly Recommend to anyone and everyone, my friends are now getting a preview with the samples I have given them.
    Thank you for reading and allowing me the opportunity to participate in this review!

    I have only ever used one brand for my dishwashing needs so I wonder how this would stack up to it. I have only just used the woolies one for the first time today. Already i love it! Everything is nice and clean looks good so far, everything dissolved and cleaned well. I was finding with my other tablet at times it didn’t fully disolve and would find it at the bottom of the dishwasher or pieces of it on the plates and cutlery.

    I find these very convenient as you just place the whole tablet into the machine. They are also nice and compact and fit into their spot in the dishwasher nicely unlike the bulky one I was using.
    All the washing I did came out clean and nice and shiny. I am very impressed with these and will continue to use them.

    Wow, that sums them up. My package arrived this morning and was very eager to try, great night to try, homemade meat pie, lovely baked on puff pastry. Thought no way will these get off all of this baked on pastry, but so very very pleased to say it did, no prior scrubbing, I wanted to test fully, and boy I was pleased. Will be giving samples to friends tomorrow to try, I am sure they will be as pleased as me. Plus another great feature is that I don’t have to touch the product or unwrap them, that is a major bonus, hate that gritty feel after unwrapping others and sometimes crushing part of them as wrapping doesn’t come of easily. Well done, great product to try, so glad to have been picked.

    I just used another tablet and can not believe how much better these work than the other brand I was using. The other brand use to leave dishes dirty or not even breakdown which meant I would have to use another tablet and re wash. The Woolies ones have not let me down!!

    Wow! I usually use another stores powder for the dishwasher and am so surprised as to what I’ve been missing. I’ve used the Select tablets the last 3 nights in a row, and for the first time in a long time, ALL my dishes have come out clean! Very impressed. Also love how you don’t need to remove the wrapper. I’d definately be buying these if I had the money as that is probably the only downside to tablets. Do Select make a powder with similar qualities? I wonder! Might have to make the switch to woolies from now on.

    I use my dishwasher everyday and always have. I normally purchase a leading brand tablets as I find they work best, no mess, no residue and always consistent. The sample’s supplied by Woolworth’s have been superb. Just as good as leading brand. My children love to help put the dishwasher on, so it is great not having to open the tablets. No complaints here other than I wish I hadn’t given away the extra samples to my family! Thank you.

    I’ve never used Dishwasher Tablets before so all I have to compare it to is cheap dishwashing powder. Nice packaging which indicated a quality product. I like the fact each tablet comes in a dissolvable wrapper. For me it’s nice to get away from measuring and putting in too much powder. On my first wash (Normal) there was still some soap suds and half the tablet was left in the cutelry tray. On my second wash (Pots) all the tablet dissolved. The plates etc were lovely and clean both times, no normal residue and the dishwasher smelt fresh like after a clean. I will still continue to use powder due to budget, but would be happy to use these tablets for a potwash in the future.

    I received these tablets and were very impressed. I have used them in my dishwasher and they do an AMAZING job at cleaning. The price was good and the performance was good.
    However if you have wet hands and you try to open the clear individual packaging, the plastic gets sticky and won’t tear open.
    All up I would DEFINATELY buy these tablets. (My friends, whom I handed them out to, also like these products.)

    I had a problem using this product, since I have the Fisher & Paikel Dish drawer.
    The tablet did not fit inside either dispenser, & it was not poissible to break it up either.
    So after the wash cycle, the tablet was still present in the dispenser & the dishes had not been cleaned.
    This dishwasher only takes powder not tablets………

    I have been using the product for a week now, I was looking forward to trying the Woolsworths Select Dishwasher Tablets as I usually buy dishwashing powder for my Fisher & Pickle dishdraw in the past I have had trouble with tablets not fitting or properly dissolving. I love the dissolvable wrapper concept and found that the tablet fitted perfectly in my dishwasher, I did find that the tablet did not always fully dissolve. Apart from this I have found the product to be excellent! Clean, streak free glasses & cutlery as well as a fresh smelling dishwasher. I will post again once I hear from my other mum friends who are trailing the sample packs.

    I’m always sceptical with tablets as I quite often find little bits of tablet all over the dishwasher afterwards. These tablets did not do that…. and I’ve been very happy with the results overall. My dishes come out clean and without streaks or residue.

    I was a little skepitcal about this product as I have been burnt before when buying the cheaper lines of dishwasher powder. I have done a number of loads now and even swapped back to the ” other brand” for one wash to confirm my findings.
    - all the plates and cutlery has come out much cleaner. There are no ” left overs” on the plates
    - the plates and glasses FEEL CLEANER, compared to my other brand, They dont have that slight oily feel
    - the inside of the dishwasher looks cleaner and smells nicer
    - the tablet is portion controlled for the darling husband who tends to overfill the dispenser

    I am clearly a convert .. I will not go back to my ” other brand” again ! ! I gave one of the sample packs to mum and she was impressed too – she wont be using her ” other brand” again either !

    We have been using these for about a week now and I cannot fault them. They clean just the same as the the expensive brand I buy normally. It says to rinse plates etc before putting them in the dishwasher but I have not really found the need to and the tablets still wash everything well. My clean dishes seem to dry a lot better too – no more opening the dishwasher to plates that still have water on them. I gave the sample packets out to my friends when I had them over for morning tea – I can’t wait to hear how they found them as some of them use bore water in their homes so they may perform differently. So far so good. I will definitely buy these again (and save myself some money!).

    I have tried many dishwasher products in the past and honestly I had given up using so called home brand coz they were crap and a waste of money. I was pleasantly supprised by the select tablet, it cleaned a baked on lasagne pyrex dish with no worries at all! Best pf all it fit into the powder dispenser with ease as most other products I had tired have not fit. Cleaned well and smelled nice – very happy would use and buy again

    I have been very happy with these dishwashing tablets. I have always used the liquid but have found the tablets better. They have left no residue and a pleasant lemon scent. The dissolvable wrapper has also been convenient. I have been so impressed that I have purchased more this week as they are currently on sale.

    I use my dishwasher everyday, I normally purchase the Woolworths Select 5 in 1 tablets, I find they work well, are not overly expensive, no mess, no residue and are usually consistent. But the All in One tablets supplied Woolworth’s are definetley the way to go. I love the disolveable wrapping, my little boy loves the dishwasher, so the stacking and adding detergent has to be done quickly! I was happy with the 5 in 1, but found the wrappers a little fiddley, expecially when I was in a hurry. I have used leading brand tablets, and only started using the Woolworths brand as my husband bought them home. No complaints, the tablets are as good as any other I’ve tried, I will continue to by the All in One tablets and will recomend them to my other mummy friends. Thanks for the sample!

    It is a good as the All In One Finish tablets
    Dishes have come out clean and sparkly over and over again
    The only thing is I normally buy the Aldi all in one tablets and they are just as good as these but the don’t have the Self Dissolving Wrapper.
    The only reason why I wouldn’t buy these is because I have 4 children and run a tight budget and the ones from Aldi are only $9.95 a box of 48

    In the after dinner clean up, i cheekily threw the unrinsed baked dinner plates, baking pan, gravy boat with the weetbix covered bowls (left in the sink all day), into the dishwasher. I figured if it got off most of it, i would hand scrub what came out dirty in the morning. Imagine my delight when it all came out perfectly clean- not even the baked on crusty bits were left behind.
    We have put the tablets through its paces, in a typical busy household where the kitchen clean up often gets left until the last minute, we have found the tablets are saving us time as even on a quick wash cycle the results are better than the expensive tablets we have used forever on an intense wash.

    It’s a no brainer for us, these tablets are about to become a standard on my families shopping list.

    I have always been a die hard Finish fan and have never liked the tablets….. Imagine my surprise when trying these!! We have dishdrawers and find that tablets just don’t work well in them. I loaded the drawer the other night and got out my supply of All in 1′s. My husband, leaning over my shoulder was insistent that I needed to peel the wrapper off…I just smiled and dropped it (wrapper and all) into the cutlery basket and put it on the eco cycle (43mins).
    43 mins later I opened the drawer to a very pleasant lemon smell (much better than the normal moldy undie smell it generates) and completely clean glassware, plates and cutlery. I had even thrown the baby bottles and they came out brilliantly clean. There was no residue on anything and they felt so clean.
    My only real question is whether these are ok to use with our HSTP/biocycle as there is nothing on the box to indicate (not that that is unusual for products) and it is not on the approved list of products that we can use from the manufacturers due to it being so new.
    All said though I would thoroughly recommend them and they are definately worth the money!!

They do work well!

    So our household has been using the Woolies tablets for a few weeks now and we are happy to report that we switching brands. Well Done Woolies.

    Our final test was the ‘eco wash’ setting, as previous attempts to use a dishwasher tablet have not been successful on this setting – the tablet has not fully disolved and it’s left crumby residue on plates/glasses. I assumed the ‘eco wash’ setting used less water, so it was harder for the tablets to disolve. However …
    … we had a roaring success with the Woolies tablets.
    They fully disolved as did the wrapper and our plates/glasses had a brilliant shine to them.

    Thanks Woolies – your tablets have enabled me to use the ‘eco wash’ setting and now, not feel so bad about the number of times per week that we run our dishwasher!!

    I think the product is ok, I have found that the cutlery is not “cleaned” as well as my usual brand. All other dishes are cleaned well, but I have found that I need to put the cutlery in for a second wash. This is a little disappointing as it is proving to be not as economical as my previous brand.

    Halfway through my sample, we had a family dinner last night. Notoriously our lasagne dish is hard to clean, but the All in Ones proved they’re up to the task. I have found that occasionally our glasses are not as clean as they could be, but otherwise, our dishes, pots and cutlery are satisfactorily cleaned and left smelling fresh. Would recomend this product to the budget conscious buyer, 9 times out of ten you’ll get a great result, with only the occasional stuborn grime remaining.

    So yes we’d buy these again.
    One thing i don’t like about them is the yellow tablet looking thing in the middle. The whole thing looks a little too much like candy for my likeing. Could be a safety issue for little ones. But other then that i’m quite pleased with the product.

    Before the trial I was using the Aldi brand and they seem to do a better job and are cheaper.

Anyways, went to Melbourne for a visit with family and when i got back three days back, the package was sitting beautifully on my doorstep. Very eagerly i unwrapped it, and the first thing i noticed was the nice lemon scent plus plenty samples for me to give friends. I used it for the dishes next day and the result was so good plus my dishwasher no longer had a musky smell. Would definitely be buying this when the time comes and would recommend to others also.

    We’ve been using the All in Ones for about 2-3 weeks now, we have a 12 month old and use run our dishwasher twice daily, using lots of dishes for feeding and cooking/preparing meals. The tablets are good to remove food from our pots and steamer and can be relied upon to clean plates with paint etc from our arts and crafts. Our dishes are left smellying and looking clean, I can tell the dishes are more than just clean when you pick them up and the surfaces have that just polished/clean and fresh feel to them. Our only downfall of recent has been our glasses, I’ve found that there is occasionally dirt remaining and dried in our glasses, which we need to re-wash, but this may be due to our dishwasher rather than the cleaning tablets, Im not sure. Over all, the tablets work well, I love the disolvable wrapper, which saves time as the other wrappers can be fiddley and you have to be fast when you have little hands trying to explore and take out your dishes. We will continue to buy the All in Ones, they are good value for money and clean our dishes well

I am lazy when it comes to rinsing before stacking the dishwasher but it hasnt been a problem for these. All the dishes have been coming out really clean. Fave feature is definitely the disolvable wrapper though. It is just so convenient not to have to fiddle to get it out of the wrapper, and i figure its less waste for the enviroment as well.

    I love the way the tablets do not need the wrapper opened, as I normally struggle with doing that easily, without having to resort to scissors. It makes it quick and easy. Have found these have worked really well, apart from when I assume my dishwasher plays up and fails to release the tablet from the detergent holder.
