Because of my Multiple Chemical Sensitivities, I use Seventh Generation Free and Clear Automatic Dishwashing Detergent. I use white vinegar as a rinsing agent. My dishes look great, there is no smell in the house, my dishwasher stays clean and it is very inexpensive to use these environmentally safe products.

We are having the same problem, so I guess I pick up dishwasher cleaner at the store today.

Have another hint for you...........I was having a problem with scum on everything. Found out that you should run dishwasher through a cycle with a product called "Dishwasher Magic"- cleaner and disinfectant. I was using the liquid at the time.
Everything came out sparkling. I do it about every 4 months or so depending on use(family size, etc...) I bought the first bottle at Walmart in the disherwasher soap area, and this last time at Lowes in one of those center aisle quick sale promotions sets.

Removed phosphates.

It has helped to use a little Lemishine in the dishwasher with the detergent.
