Aldi Regular Says Budget Dishwasher Tablets Left Dishes Dirty After a Week

After trying routine fixes, the shopper switched back to Fairy tablets, reporting no further issues.

Overview

  • The shopper names Aldi's Magnum Premium Triple Chamber All in One tablets as the product that performed poorly after about a week of use.
  • Items were described as coming out gritty and cloudy with food residue despite adding salt, using rinse aid, and cleaning the filter.
  • Switching back to Fairy Platinum All In One tablets coincided with the problem stopping, though the shopper notes the dishwasher could be a factor.
  • Price examples cited include £3.99 for 37 Aldi tablets versus £9 for 32 Fairy tablets, highlighting a cost-versus-performance trade-off.
  • The shopper still buys most groceries at Aldi but purchases Fairy tablets, typically from Sainsbury's or during Aldi Specialbuys promotions.
