Washing Sterling Silver in the Dishwasher

Hi Judy, I use my MIL's sterling as my everyday silver, rather than have it sit unused for 363 days of the year and wash it in my dishwasher daily. I find that the pieces I use constantly tarnish less than the specialized pieces that are used infrequently. I use Cascade liquid, not the pods, whichever Cascade is on sale at the time. I do keep the silver and stainless separate when washing. I will read Nancy's referenced reviews and see how Cascade stacks up. Perhaps there is something in your water that is encouraging tarnish? On a slightly different note, be aware using any of the popular pods in your dishwasher or washing machine. I have had repair men tell me that many times the plastic coating does not completely dissolve and will build up and clog your machine's filter. I have gone back to measuring all detergents.

Judy - yes, I learned and do the same - never mix silver & stainless in same load of dishwasher.
Here's a link for one recommended detergent. I haven't tried it but this is a 3rd party review, not a manufacturer promotion.
Also, have you tried just polishing it this time BEFORE Thanksgiving, then washing it AFTER? Might work, Nancy
