Dishwashers can also give false. TRND has taken some tips together, what to look at granting:
Pre-wash is necessary (spinach, cigarette ash and the like) only water remains. Otherwise, you can safely do without it and so preserve environment and your wallet.
Remove coarse and adhering food particles before loading.
Give the dishes a fixed place so that it can not fall over
The spray arms must be able to rotate freely
(Attentive trnd SOMAT tester had the question Wer wird answer to the so-called millionaire. Spray shadows easy.) When rinsing in the dishwasher you should namely loose items (such as lunchboxes, for example) do not put on other subjects. This spray shadows can occur, the water does not achieve anything. The dishes are not properly cleaned.
Large parts are down, smaller upward.
The manufacturer promises (according TRND- brochure in brief):

For practical test: SOMAT MULTI GELTABS
Packaging / Handling:
For the dishwasher tablets GELTABS are housed in a very eye-catching packaging: There is a bag which is conveniently resealable. Otherwise, he is kept in typical SOMAT colors.
The GELTABS not even specially packaged. So they should be environmentally friendly. The GELTABS to feel to get used to something funny. Who still knows the good old SLIME, that was sold in a plastic package, has an idea of how the feel GELTABS.
They come as the other tabs in the metering chamber. Dishwasher hire and already doing the GELTABS their service.
Functioning of the SOMAT MULTI GELTABS:
The 20ml Geltabs are surrounded by a water-soluble transparent film. Even at low water temperature, this film dissolves and I have found no film residues in the dishwasher.
In my test, the SOMAT MULTI GELTABS had to be measured with the SOMAT7 tabs. At first I thought, well ... everything is so clean (or not) as the SOMAT7-TABS7 also. Added value I can not determine.
Meanwhile, the following advantages have been found:
The SOMAT MULTI GELTABS clean cups, glasses, plates, pots, cutlery and plastic dishes even at low temperatures. My dishwasher has an ECO function. This rinsing usually do just fine, if you use the Geltabs. This is a real added value for me as I so save energy. The water is not so very hot and the wash cycle will not last as long.
The plastic jars took the smell and the taste of GELTABS to not so intense.
The dishwasher smells still clean and fresh.
Otherwise, I'm already used to from the SOMAT7-TABS, that the lenses are clean and free of water spots, as the dishes. Salt and rinse aid equipment I use for a long time no longer separate. A special cleaning booster I could yoy. Not determine the SOMAT7-TABS. The pans were just as clean.
Summary:
Compared to the SOMAT SOMAT7- TABS MULTI GELTABS cut off quite well. Priced seen both settle on the upper level. But but you get clean dishes, usually without pre- or post-rinsing. This protects my nerves. Both Tab varieties both glasses and pots / pans are well clean. Watermarks I have no more.
Who saves energy behave and want to perform the ECO-wash, for the Geltabs are highly recommended. The Geltab dissolves completely and the harnesses are good clean, clean any case as in all other tabs tested for me. The plastic tableware accepts the smell and taste is no longer sharply.
So overall a buy rating, despite the apparently high price.
