Do you know what' the quantity of Detergent in the Rs. 250 pack of Finnish's website - because that doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere on the site. |

And one of those 5 dishwashers I used continuously for 4 years. I have bought the 'Shine' (actually JetDry) once or twice. Since I never had too many glass stuff, it was hardly ever used. |

I think Finish detergent is a 1kg pack. Never bothered since I have to get it mail order and Finish has always been highly rated, and probably the most expensive in the UK. |

Will vary in amount according to how soft or hard your water is. A very rough guide to this is how much lather you get when you wash your hands with a bar of soap. |

My LG has a setting for the salt. In the UK they always recommended salt. |

It is used to recondition the water softener. |

When you say mail order, I am assuming from India and not actually from UK. Not sure if you know but you can buy online in India and have it delivered: https://www.buyfinishonline.com/ |

What we really miss is our old Sumeet's quality. We have an inalsa food processor but it's useless for kneading dough, for that we use a kenwood fp. For idly batter we take out the trusty Sumeet! Yup, we have three! |

Yeah, I know. Atleast in Bombay, the Municipal water is soft rather than hard. So I don't see any reason to use a softener. |
Is the tap water very hard in the UK? |
Also when you say your LG comes with a setting, does that mean you can turn the water softening off? |
Does this mean all Indian dishwashers come with a built in water softener? |

Are there water softeners available which can be easily fitted onto water outlets? Someone I know has a washing machine connected to borewell water. How much would it cost to have some kind of softener fitted between the tap and the washing machine inlet and what kind of annual cost would it entail? |

I have a feeling that the Dishwashers do the softening more to avoid drying marks. Also, the nozzles are fine so clogging may be an issue. |
