Yea, because of him I experimented with detergents and volume (and the different cycles).

I now use Walmart powder ($5/box), 1 tbsp in prewash, 1 in wash, and the light cycle. Most of the time this is fine, and I cook a lot, have some stuff that doesn't clean easily. This with a 20 year old dishwasher.

I've learned when I need to use more detergent or use a longer cycle.
