Does Jet Dry actually do anything?

Question

K, my dishwasher seems to do a pretty good job but I keep seeing the commercials...So im just wondering, is there any real benifit to using this stuff?

Answer 1

I only tried it a couple of times. (Years ago.) I never noticed a difference when I tried it. I decided it wasn't worth spending the money on it.

Answer 2

It messed up my dishwasher and leaves spots on anything white or clear. I stopped using it and dont recommend it.

Answer 3

JET-DRY Rinse Agent works in the rinse cycle, lowering the surface tension of water and causing it to sheet. thus preventing water spots.

i have noticed that it works with water that is very hard--very full of minerals...i live in an area that every spigot has the verdgris green around...mineral build up.  I noticed that i dont have as many spots on the glasses...if you live in area with soft water...probably not worth it.

Answer 4

Yes and no. It depends on how hard your water is, and how hot the water is. Jet Dry takes away water's surface tension, so droplets won't stick. Instead, the water runs right off. Dishes dry faster, and without spots. If you have soft water, you won't have a problem with ugly spots. And if you dishwasher heats the water very hot, you probably won't need Jet Dry. If you try Jet Dry and you don't see a difference in the first wash, then forget about it. But my dishwasher is too energy-conserving, so I need it.

Answer 5

i have never been able to tell a difference
