i do the same thing with my washing machine..i buy vinegar by the gallon..
baking soda is also a whitener.
A few years ago..comsumer reports claimed that "walmart brand" diswsher detergent was the best.
be sure to run the dishwsher at night,before you go to bed, saves energy and doesn't heat the house up during the day.

However, the dishwasher racks don't seem to be getting clean & still have quite a bit gunk on them. I used something called "Lemi-shine" but it's not cleaning stuff out.
Does anyone have any recommendations for something that will get the gunk off?

Hi,
I had a similar problem. There is a dishwasher cleaner product on the market. I remember using it, got it in the supermarket. It did work, but my dishwasher (practically brand new) was beyond hope. It lasted a week or 2 and then the stench returned. Bad enough that had to ditch the dishwasher (top of the line Kenmore) and bought a new Bosch. Problem solved.
Sorry I don't remember the name of the product or who made it, but look carefully in the dishwasher detergent aisle.

I just discovered Lemi Shine through a friend. For sure, it is the best hard water supplement for getting the film off of glasses. I would try it again on an empty dishwasher to try to clean up the inside.
