    using reg dishwashing soap in a dishwasher

    At least that’s a mistake they’ll (probably) only make once.

      Sorry, what’s the problem with dishwasher soap? Isn’t it meant to be specifically used in a dishwasher? Or does “regular dishwashing soap” refer to detergent? Sorry, I am just confused.

        OP meant regular washing-up detergent. It’s usually sold as “super-concentrated” so if you put it in a dishwasher the agitation and extra water make a LOT of foam. Usually it will start to pour out of the machine and make a massive mess.
