And I think it's because the dishwasher is just this black box.

And what I realized is that majority of people do not know how the dishwasher works.

So I had to go through how the dishwasher works and why putting the pot in the bottom is a terrible idea.

Because, you know, there's sort of this seven minute pre-wash cycle at the beginning of your dishwasher cycle.

It's in and around seven minutes where it just, you know, sprays all the dishes down with water.

And then there's a sensor that senses how dirty the water is.

And then it sort of, you know, tells the dishwasher where.

how it needs to proceed.

But that initial water gets completely drained and then new water comes in to do the washing.

So you've essentially washed all of the detergent down the drain and then the rest of the cycle is just water.

Absolutely different.

It's one of those things where usually the more expensive it is, the better it works.

And the reason is because of the ingredients in both of those.

You know, it's not about necessarily water content and all of that stuff that went around saying, oh, liquid detergent is mostly water.

Yeah, I mean, it comes down to

It's a multi-billion dollar industry and the amount of research and development that goes into it is absolutely insane.

You'd be stunned to know how much research goes into laundry detergent and dish detergent.

So yeah, there's a huge, huge difference.

And there's always some front runners and then there's the rest.

100%, the top three are Tide, Persil, which Tide and Persil are so close, I can't really even call it.
