No scientific proof at all but it feels like washing powder does a much better job at removing stains than washing liquid.

It also seems more and more difficult to find washing powder in store as manufacturers are moving to liquid and even more a rip off - pods. Don't get me started on these money spinners.

What is your experience and what works best?

You talking about TechnologyConnections? Cause damn, dude. “I tested cheap tablets and my results didn’t match his so he’s full of BS” is a wild take. He specifically talks about formulation being important in later dishwashing videos, not all detergents are created equally.

But I have had great results switching to the powder version of a name brand.

Yeah that guy. He basically went "all the fancy color soap does nothin and all dishwasher tablets are basically the same" but that is most definitely false.

If my results dont match his claim then his research sucks.

You’re missing at least 2/3rds, if not more, of his dishwasher saga. He addresses and validates people’s poor results, providing possible reasons for the differences including water quality, detergent quality, etc.

But no, he’s definitely full of BS. /s
