BioMio dishwasher tablets
BioMio dishwasher tablets are widely distributed and are advertised quite aggressively, especially on the Internet. It is positioned that this is an environmentally friendly and completely safe product for the health of people and animals, which can be used without restrictions, even for everyday washing of dishes, even for washing children's toys. Is this really so, or are we just dealing with a cunning advertising ploy? Let's try to figure it out.
Specification
Before purchasing a particular dishwashing detergent, you need to find instructions on its composition on its packaging. It is clear that only a specialist can disassemble the elements of the product; an ordinary person is often unable to do this. Therefore, you should not rush into purchasing; take a photo of the packaging, and then look on the Internet to see what this or that component is.
Since we are looking at the Bio Mio product, let's take a closer look at its composition. Is it as harmless and safe as the manufacturer claims, or is it just fooling people?
- 15-30% oxygen bleaching agent. Bleach occupies a significant part of the tablet and consists mainly of sodium percarbonate - a harmless substance that, when placed in warm water, decomposes into soda, oxygen and water with a slight release of heat. Bleach helps tackle tough stains like dried-on food residue, and it's actually completely safe.
Oxygen bleaches are widely used in the production of washing powders and various safe cleaning chemicals.
- 5% polycarboxylates. Quite a cloudy element of the composition.Although experts say that an environmentally friendly version of this group of substances is used in tablets and powders to protect dishwasher parts from corrosion, it is difficult to vouch for this 100%. So it would be more correct to put a question mark next to this element and leave its safety on the conscience of the manufacturer.
- Nonionic surfactants. It would be nice if the manufacturer of the product indicated the % volume of this substance in the composition of the tablet, but oh well, it didn’t and didn’t indicate it. We are more interested in whether nonionic surfactants are harmful or not? Nonionic surfactants are the safest of all existing surfactants. The reason for this is very simple - they are 100% decomposed in water and do not enter the human body and do not harm the environment.
- Eucalyptus essential oil. There is no point in saying anything about essential oil, since it is clear that it is a natural component. The only thing to note is that if you are allergic to eucalyptus oil, beware of using these tablets, because the oil may remain on the dishes and cause trouble.
- Enzymes. Substances that destroy protein. Enzymes themselves are protein compounds, and even the safest of them can cause skin redness, dermatitis and some skin diseases. When entering the human body in large quantities, they provoke degradation of mucous membranes and provoke exacerbations of gastrointestinal diseases. Although enzymes cause moderate harm to the human body, they are not contained in tablets for PMM in such quantities as to cause this harm. Moreover, the enzymes are washed off well.
For a harmful dose of enzymes to enter the human body and cause harm, you need to eat 5-6 dishwashing tablets.
- Limonene. This is a fragrance with the aroma of everyone's favorite citrus. There is so little of it in the composition of these dishwashing tablets that even people with allergies will not feel anything when using these tablets.
We figured out the composition. It seems like everything is really not bad, not perfect, but not bad, there’s really nothing to be afraid of. Such a pill will not harm even a child’s body, even if it is eaten, but, of course, this is not worth doing. Using the dishwasher tablets we mentioned is as easy as shelling pears:
- take one thing out of the package;
- put it directly in the wrapper in the desired compartment of the dispenser;
- load the dishes, close the door;
- run the program and wait for the result.
I would especially like to note that the tablet packaging dissolves in water, which is very convenient. After all, if you had to use PMM tablets in regular packaging, then you noticed that when unpacking the tablet partially crumbled, and when putting it into the dispenser, your hands got dirty. It may not have caused much trouble, but it was still inconvenient. It's a thing of the past now.
Advantages and disadvantages
Without getting lost in thought, we will point out the main pros and cons of BioMio dishwasher tablets. Let us immediately make a reservation that the information contained in this paragraph was recorded from the words of specialists. We did not conduct tests ourselves. So, the advantages of the product.
- Cleans dishes well from various contaminants, except grease.
- It washes off perfectly from dishes.
- Leaves no odor.
- Has convenient packaging.
- Not very expensive.
- Overall environmentally friendly.
Having talked about the advantages, we should also mention the disadvantages. There are few of them, but we will not keep silent about the disadvantages, especially since we are not interested in selling this product.There is, perhaps, only one main disadvantage - the tablets do not cope well with dried greasy stains. Apparently the manufacturer, taking care of the consumer’s health, reduced the percentage of enzymes in the tablets, which made them worse at washing away fat. Perhaps the reason is something else. In any case, the fact is obvious and this is a minus.
Dishwasher tablets can also sometimes leave subtle streaks on glass glasses, but once you set the dishwasher to a double rinse cycle, the effect disappears.
People's opinions
We have determined that dishwasher tablets are safe for health, and they should even clean dishes quite well. Reviews from experts are not bad, but we are somehow more familiar with the opinions of ordinary users who have already tried these tablets, and more than once. Therefore, we decided to devote this item specifically to this - reviews of owners and housewives who are not accustomed to washing dishes with their hands and who use BioMio tablets.
Alena, St. Petersburg
BioMio are great tablets. I’ve been using them for two years now and I think they have only one drawback – the price. Well, if the manufacturer weren’t greedy, I would only buy this product. And so you have to use it mixed with all sorts of nasty things. Lately the tablets have deteriorated a little, or maybe there’s something wrong with my machine. The smell of some products remains, and the quality of washing is not ideal; this has never happened before with BioMio.
Oksana, Krasnodar
Six months ago, my mother and I bought a Bosch dishwasher, and now we’re both happy like fools. Why didn’t we think about this before, we washed the dishes with our hands and swore. Before each wash, we put a BioMio 7 in 1 tablet into the cuvette. There is nothing to compare the product with, and there is no need, because everything is washed much better than by hand.Everything fits in the tablets, although we used to remove them from the wrapper and only then put them in the machine. Then, after 1.5 months, I bothered to read that the packaging, it turns out, dissolves in water. Once again, I am convinced that before you start using something unfamiliar, you need to read the instructions.

I trust only BioMio products, at least when it comes to powders and washing tablets, they have no equal. These tablets dissolve completely even in my fastidious dishwasher, although she “spitted out” even the praised Finish tablets for dishwasher, advertised-over-advertised. I will only use BioMio, I recommend it to everyone.
Nikolay, Perm
I tried BioMio tablets only once, I didn’t even buy them, a friend gave me a couple of them. To be completely honest, I liked the tablets, they wash easily, dissolve without leaving a residue, there is no bad smell, but I immediately realized that they were not for me - they were not in the right price category. In short, I tried them, they are good pills, but I won’t buy them because they are expensive!
To summarize, we note that BioMio PMM tablets are truly a good and environmentally friendly product. Experts have questioned its effectiveness, but people do not share their opinion and this is encouraging. With certain costs, we can say that the product is worthy of taking a place on the utility shelf in your kitchen, although the decision is, of course, up to you. Good luck!
