The dishwasher tablet market in Vietnam features many brands: Finish, Somat, Denkmit, Largo, Domax, etc. For beginners, choosing the right dishwasher tablet that fits their machine and budget is not easy. This article outlines 5 important criteria for selecting the best dishwasher tablet.
1. Ingredients - "All in One" or "Classic"?
Dishwasher tablets come in two main types:
- Classic / Standard: Focuses only on cleaning. Requires separate use of salt and rinse aid.
- All in One / Multi-action: Integrates 5-7 functions: cleaning, water softening, rinse aid, glass protection, etc. Convenient and saves effort.
If you're new to using a dishwasher, you should try the Largo trial kit which includes both types for comparison.
2. Origin and Certification
Prioritize dishwasher tablets originating from Europe, especially Germany – where manufacturing quality standards are stringent. Reliable indicators:
- Full Vietnamese secondary label with distributor's name
- Import certification (REX, EVFTA if from EU)
- Genuine barcode
- Exclusive distributor with an official website
For example: Largo tablets imported directly from Germany have REX certification to benefit from EVFTA tax incentives, leading to better prices while still ensuring German standards.
3. Price per tablet - the most important metric
Don't just look at the price of the whole box. Calculate the price per tablet (= box price / number of tablets):
| Product | Number of tablets | Box price | Price/tablet |
|---|---|---|---|
| Largo Classic 18g | 60 | 229,000đ | ~3,800đ |
| Largo All in One | 40 | 219,000đ | ~5,500đ |
| Finish (for reference) | varies | varies | often higher |
When comparing, always convert to price/tablet for an accurate assessment, rather than just looking at the box price.
4. Weight and Concentration
A large but fluffy tablet (due to air) isn't necessarily better than a small but concentrated one. Pay attention to the weight:
- Standard tablets are usually 15-22g/tablet
- Largo Classic tablets: 18g - optimal weight, concentrated, strong cleaning power
- Tablets that are too light (<15g) may be less effective
5. Reviews from Real Users
Check genuine reviews on Shopee, Lazada, and Facebook groups about dishwashers. Don't trust:
- Reviews that are too short, without images
- Reviews with repetitive content
- Shops that are not official distributors
Advice for New Users
If you've just bought a dishwasher and don't know where to start:
- Buy a trial kit to evaluate its effectiveness with your machine - Largo 4-tablet kit for only 9,000đ
- If you're satisfied, buy a complete combo including tablets + salt + rinse aid to save money: Largo 3-item Combo
- Use regularly for at least 1 month before making a final assessment
