Your machines need more than vinegar.

  • Blitz makes the best products! These dishwasher cleaner tabs keep my Machine clean and smelling great, so it can properly clean my dishes!

  • These BLITZ Washing Machine Cleaner Tablets worked really well in my washing machine. I used one tablet for a deep cleaning cycle, and afterward the washer drum and gasket looked much cleaner and smelled fresh. I especially like that the tablets are designed to help remove limescale, detergent buildup, residue, and odors from areas that are normally difficult to clean. They’re easy to use and work with both HE front-load and top-load washing machines. The 24-pack is also convenient because it provides a long-term supply for regular washer maintenance. A simple way to keep the washing machine clean, fresh, and well maintained.

  • I’ve been using these tablets for regular washing machine maintenance, and they’ve worked well for keeping the washer clean and fresh. They were especially helpful with odors, and I noticed the unpleasant smell was gone after cleaning. The tablets are simple to use and convenient to keep on hand for routine maintenance. I wouldn’t rely on them for heavy buildup or a deep cleaning job, but they’ve worked well for regular cleaning and freshening the drum and gasket. The 24-pack is also convenient for ongoing use. Overall, they’ve been a useful option for keeping our washing machine fresh between regular cleanings.

  • Great product! Good quality, works as expected, and I’m very happy with my purchase. Highly recommended!

  • Front-load washers are notorious for trapping moisture, soap scum, and grime behind the drum, which eventually leads to that dreaded sour or musty smell on fresh laundry. I picked up this 24-pack of washing machine cleaner tablets to stay on top of regular maintenance, and it makes a noticeable difference. • Deep Clean & Odour Removal: Dropping a single tablet into an empty tub on a regular cycle effectively breaks down built-in detergent residue and eliminates trapped odours, leaving the drum smelling genuinely fresh. • Pro Tip for Front-Loaders: To ensure no leftover foam or residue stays behind in the door seal or drum grooves, run a quick extra rinse cycle right after the main cleaning run. • Unbeatable Value: With 24 tablets in the box and a recommended maintenance schedule of once a month, a single pack provides a full two years of upkeep. If you want to prevent moldy smells, extend the life of your washer, and keep your clothes smelling clean, this is a hassle-free, cost-effective solution.

  • I tried the BLITZ Washing Machine Cleaner Tablets because my washer had started developing an unpleasant smell and some visible residue around the drum and gasket. After running a cleaning cycle, the machine smelled noticeably fresher and looked much cleaner. The tablets are very easy to use. I just put one directly into the empty washer drum and ran a hot cycle. I like that they help with detergent residue, hard water buildup and limescale without having to deal with liquid cleaners or powders. The price seemed a little high at first, but with 24 tablets in the package and enough for long-term washing machine maintenance, I think the value is actually pretty good. Overall, a convenient washing machine cleaner and descaler for keeping the drum, gasket and internal parts fresh and clean. I would buy it again.
