    Finish Quantum Ultimate Pro Lemon Sparkle delivers on everything

    Pros

    I have been using Finish Quantum products for several years, and they just keep getting better. This product is absolutely amazing, the best yet, and it evens keeps the dishwasher clean! I don't understand the Consumer reference to "plastic bottle" as the packaging - it's a disposable bag.

    Cons

    None

    Recommend it?
