I wanted to love Honest Auto Dishwasher Gel. I REALLY wanted to, friends. And I gave it 4 different tries before reaching the conclusion that for me, this product just doesn’t work. 🙁

My dishes looked like this every time after I use this product:

Now, I’ll be the first to tell you that different dishwashers work differently, but I don’t normally have dishes that look like this. I’ll also be the first to tell you that I’m not the type of person who washes her dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. Yes, I’ll scrape off big chunks of food, but I fully expect my dishwasher to earn its keep around here by ACTUALLY WASHING THE DISHES. If you are a pre-washer, then this product may do just fine. And there are certainly reasons to try it, if you tend to pre-clean your dishes. The Honest Company’s Auto Dish Gel has the following perks (all from the company’s website):

• Contains NO bleach or bleaching agents guaranteed not to etch metal / silver
• 100% Natural / Non-toxic / Biodegradable / pH Neutral
• Septic tank & gray-water system safe

But alas, for me, it was yet another disappointing attempt to find an eco-friendly dishwashing detergent that got the job done. In my opinion, this is a product to pass over when making your bundle selection, or when shopping a la carte from the website.
