Dishwasher tablets

I am proud to boast that it is 37 years since I have done manual washing up - love cooking, hate washing up. I usually go for the cheapest dishwasher tablets I can find but they don't seem to be as efficient as they were. I wash everyday things at 40 degrees, and if I have to wash at the highest temperature, my dishwasher takes ages and uses lots of water, rather cancelling out the savings. I can't believe how expensive some dishwasher tablets are, but do they do a good job and are they worth the money? I should add that I live in a very soft water area so don't need to add dishwasher salt. What brands do other GNetters recommend, please?

vegasmags like phoenix`s friend I have recently been told about Lidl`s W5 dishwasher tablets and they are simply fantastic - just as good as the much more expensive brands
