I never understood pre-rinsing. It just didn’t make sense to have to wash dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. Apparently FINISH agrees that pre-rinsing is an unnecessary step, since their new FINISH QUANTUM is designed so powerfully that it eliminates the need to pre-rinse – saving both time and water.
About FINISH QUANTUM
FINISH® QUANTUM® utilizes a breakthrough multi-chamber technology that releases each agent when needed during the cycle.

- Powerful scrubbing micro-beads soften burnt-on food like lasagna
- Powermax Bleach granules attack tough stains like tea and coffee
- Rinse Agent gel delivers an amazing shine!
- #1 recommended brand by more dishwasher brands*
The Review
One afternoon, I began loading the dishes into the dishwasher. I carefully placed a FINISH QUANTUM tablet into the detergent bin, then added some FINISH Jet-Dry drying agent for good measure. FINISH says you get shine and I wanted to see it.
The FINISH QUANTUM tablets have a puzzle-like look to them, with a blue side, white side and a big red dot in the middle. The white beads contain the bleach granules to help fight stains. The blue side are the scrubbing enzymes to break-up food that is hardened on the dishes. The big red dot contains Jet-Dry gel to help make your dishes shine. Everything you need in one convenient, pre-measured tablet.
It just took one load to convince me that FINISH QUANTUM is amazing. The entire load of dishes came out spotless and without any water stains or marks. I had some plates with a little bit of dried cheese on them – cheese GONE. And you want to know the crazy thing? I really do think my white dishes are even whiter than they were before. They have a little glisten to them that I didn’t notice was missing until it was there again.
To try out FINISH Dishwashing Detergent for your own dishes, you can take the FINISH Challenge. Simply purchase a package of FINISH Quantum and use it to wash your dishes. If you don’t see a difference, you can get your money back. Based on our experience, you won’t be needing to, though, since they hands down left our dishes spotless. Make sure you pick up one of these FINISH coupons before you head out to the store.
