In this video, I’m back with another dishwasher test, and this one honestly surprised me. I had just finished loading up my Whirlpool dishwasher and I did not pre-rinse everything—so yes, it was looking pretty rough in there. I decided to try the Finish Powerball Quantum pods because they were on a BOGO deal on Ibotta, even though you guys know I’m not usually a huge fan of pods. I talk through what the pod looks like, what the package claims (like tackling 24-hour dried-on stains), and why I’m always a little skeptical about how those plastic layers dissolve. I ran my normal one-hour wash with heat dry (and I already had rinse aid filled). When the cycle finished, I opened it up and checked the usual problem items—spoons, pans, and dishes with stuck-on food like mashed potatoes, rice, and beans. Everything came out legit clean, including items I absolutely did not rinse first. My takeaway: these Finish Powerball Quantum pods may have just become my new favorite dish detergent, and that’s not something I say lightly.
