I still use the pods in the main dispenser, for convenience, but after watching the TC video, I started dumping a spoonful of loose Oxyclean into the washer before closing the door. That also provides detergent during both cycles, and the difference in cleanliness is night and day.

is oxyclean alright for your dishes / dishwasher?

It's fairly hard to find a cleaning product that's not okay for dishes. Glass is very unreactive and quite hard.

Dishwasher maybe less so, but they're usually pretty sturdy too.

I'm unclear on the answer -- are you saying it's a product that is probably fine then? And for human consumption if theres residue?

I would strongly suspect it's not going to hurt anything. If your dishwasher is leaving residue of cleaners, that's another story, that needs to be fixed whatever you're using.
