Best and Cheap Dishwashing Liquid Recommendations?

As the title suggests, what dishwashing liquids do you guys use and recommend? Cheers!

Based in Christchurch, are there any commercial supplier that I can purchase it directly?

  • Nisbets do catering and commercial kitchen supplies. I've used them for various things like plastic wrap and baking paper, tools like tongs etc, dishwasher rinse aid.
    Never got washing liquid, but you could probably get a large container pretty cheap

    • Thanks this is the one I found Jantex Manual Dishwashing Liquid Concentrate Lemon, 5L for $19.9. Any idea is this better than any of those in the supermarket?

      • +1

        That price is for ordering 6 bottles.
        It’s actually $30 for ordering 1 unit.
        Works out to $6 per litre and is probably no different than cheap supermarket brands.
        So by that logic, just spend $12 for 5L from the warehouse: Shotz Dishwash Liquid Lemon Bulk Pack 5L

        • I second this. Shotz works just as well as Pamolive and Sunlight. I wouldn't recommend the Countdown/Paknsave brands because they aren't concentrated enough, so you end up using a lot more. I've been using the Gilmores 5L Jade fragrance concentrated dishwashing liquid for the past 6 months, but unfortunately, there's no Gilmores in Christchurch.

        • Thanks I think I will give this a go next time I'm running out!

  • +2

    The cheap stuff at Woolworths $3.60/2ltr works well enough https://www.woolworths.co.nz/shop/productdetails?stockcode=2…

    • Its what we use. Pretty sure it used to be only $2 or $2.50 too.

    • That's what I'm using right now, lol. I'm looking for something with better cleaning ability because I usually add a bit of water to use it with the foam dispenser, which dilutes it a little.

  • I'm sure the above woolworths item is the same as this one in pak n save. Woolworth looks cheaper now, but I've bought the PnS version at around $3 on special.

    • No they're a bit different, both the colour and smell. I prefer the Woolworths one but they're both okay

  • I got some diversey lime sun dishwash liquid mitre10 cheapas deals big 5 liters jars or something they are great concentrated and strong and i use almond oil on my hands after large washing or cooking , or you can just use gloves

    • How much did you got them for?

      • I think 10 not very sure I got diversey laundry powder sensitive yesterday for 8 NZD for 5 kg they are also fantastic for kids cloths

  • I used to buy woolworths one before, but few months back I got Dawn from Costco when it was on sale. I think $19 for 2x2.66l. We are still using the first bottle after few months. Woolworth 2l bottle normally lasted us just over 1 month while Damn has been there for more than 3 months now I think.

  • Countdown own brand 2L $3.60 is very good quality n best value for money for me. Used for years.
