Transparent and practical: A service that thinks for itself

Imagine if you never had to think about anything ever again because there were services to take care of some of the most tedious tasks. The Amazon Dash Replenishment Service (Amazon DRS) is one of those services. By interacting with your Home Connect dishwasher, it automatically reorders dishwasher tabs even before they run low.

The Amazon Dash Replenishment Service is not yet available in Germany, but will be implemented in the near future.

How the Amazon Dash Replenishment Service works

Functional description of Amazon DRS and Home Connect

Your Home Connect dishwasher has a counter which knows how many dishwasher tablets you have at home at any point in time. Before these run out, new dishwasher tabs are ordered in advance via Amazon. As soon as the order is initiated, Amazon delivers the replenishment order directly to your home. After delivery, the dishwasher knows via the Home Connect app how many new tabs are there and that it no longer has to worry about this.

How does Amazon smart reorders work?

Smart reordering of dishwasher tabs can be set up easily via the Amazon Alexa app. To get started make sure you have enabled the Home Connect dishwasher skill. Once Alexa detects the number of dishwasher tabs has dropped below the limit, Alexa can automatically reorder new tabs for you. Alexa can also remind you via voice besides email and send a notification from Amazon Shopping to your echo device with an offer for a refill. At this point, Alexa will ask you whether you’d like to add it to your cart. Once you agree, you can review the details and complete the purchase at your convenience. Simple, but effective.

Step 2: Which dishwasher tablets do I need?

Find the dishwasher tablets you need and select the delivery address and payment method. You can determine when the tablets should be reordered: After a certain number having been used or when a certain number are left. Then all you have to do is set how many tablets you already have at home at that moment in time.

You no longer need to worry about replenishing your dishwasher tablets . When supplies are running low, Amazon will reorder them.
