Tide Ultra clings to the detergent dispenser

Quality3/5

If I use the recommended amount of soap in my Maytag Bravo HE machine, the machine cycles for several hours to get rid of all of the suds! In all situations, the soap does not leave the detergent dispenser - sometimes, even when I mix with a little water to dilute it. Everything else about the soap I like but probably will not rebuy because of this issue.

Too thick

I purchased this and it is way too thick and isn’t dispensing into my front loader. All I keep reading in response to it being too thick is because it could have been exposed to extreme temperature during shipping, etc. that doesn’t resolve the issue.. is there a resolution to thinning out the detergent?? Because I now have a bottle of detergent that isn’t serving it’s purpose.. I have used other tide products without an issue but wanted to try this one out, but sadly disappointed.

I have used Tide for years - regular and cold water. This is the worst Tide product ever. It totally changed and ruined colors on my clothes plus did not get them clean.

Have been using Tide Ultra for ages....my clothes always gets clean...Today I decided to hand wash a favorite white eyelet shirt of mine....I diluted the Tide in a sinkfull of water....then immersed my shirt and to my horror, it changed the color of my shirt. It became a shade of very light mint green!!!! The color isn't bad but my favorite shirt is no longer white!!!! I have been using Tide Ultra on all my white shirts and T-shirts but never had the color change before.....I don't know if I can remove this new color.....I actually tried using bleach afterwards but no change in the color...

Unparalleled Cleaning Power - Tide Ultra Stain Release Liquid Laundry Detergent!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

As someone who values cleanliness and takes pride in well-maintained clothes, I have had an incredibly positive experience with Tide Ultra Stain Release Liquid Laundry Detergent. This powerful cleaning agent has been a game-changer in my laundry routine, effortlessly tackling even the most stubborn stains, leaving my clothes looking and smelling their best. Its remarkable ability to remove even the most challenging stains sets this detergent apart. From coffee spills to grass stains, this detergent has consistently proven its prowess in restoring my clothes to their original, spotless condition. The innovative formula, designed to penetrate into fabric fibers, works its magic in every load, ensuring that my clothes always look fresh and vibrant. Another feature I appreciate is the detergent's pre-treatment ability; this makes treating tough stains a breeze. The detergent's application directly to stains provides targeted treatment for optimal cleaning results on tough stains. This ability eliminates the need for additional stain removers. In summary, Tide Ultra Stain Release Liquid Laundry Detergent has been a laundry lifesaver. Its exceptional stain-fighting capabilities, relatively light scent, and convenient pre-treat cap have made it an indispensable part of my laundry routine. If you're seeking a detergent that delivers outstanding cleaning results, look no further - Tide Ultra Stain Release is sure to exceed your expectations!

Nothing worked as well as this detergent. It was perfect and my go to for daily clothes, sheets, anything. You could use it to pre treat stains, and I've been using it for year. This discontinuation is awful. All the other tide products do not remove stains to any sort of comparable degree. It was far above the competition products, and the probably the stupidest move Tide has ever made is to discontinue it. I implore you to bring it back. Pods are awful and cause stains, we all just need basic detergent that does the job, and thats what this product was.

I normally use tide with oxi, and have had really good results with it but thought I would give this a try as sometimes the stains are difficult to get out. One wash with this product and my tee shirts were badly faded and the stains remained. Also, the smell was pretty strong and remained after going through an extra rinse and the dryer. Will not purchase this again.

The Tide Team
We're sorry a loyal Tide fan like you had this experience, since our detergents go through many quality checks to ensure that they provide an effective clean. As well, a lot of thought goes into creating features that we think you'd enjoy. We'd like to mention that if items are washed according to the care instructions, our products won't cause any fading. We suggest making sure that you're following the care label and using the correct water temperature for the fabric. For a great clean, use the recommended amount of detergent, and make sure the machine isn't too full. We hope this is helpful. We'll be sure to share this with our team, and we'd also be happy to assist you further. When you have a chance, please give us a call at (800) 879-8433.

I looked everywhere for this product because every review website said it's the best at removing stains. I have an HE washer and no matter if I use that, a friend or family member's machine, or the laundromat, the stains on my cotton t-shirt don't go away. Stains are mostly oil from food, and breast milk. I took a before and after picture to make sure it wasn't the detergent itself causing stains, but all it did is confirm that the stains remained after washing with this detergent. I have no idea what to do now. I hate HE machines and no detergent works with them.

We're sorry to hear that this has been your experience, and we'll be sure to let our team know how you feel. We'd expect you to enjoy an effective clean when using Tide, since our laundry detergents do go through many quality checks. We can assure you that our Tide PLUS Ultra Stain Release is formulated with stain removal ingredients that work at the fiber level for an Ultra clean, and we'd be happy to share some tips with you. We suggest making sure that you're dosing the correct amount of detergent, using the hottest water temperature safe for the fabric, and not overloading the washer. As well, you may want to try pre-treating noticeable stains before washing. We hope this helps, and please give us a call at (800) 879-8433 if you'd like further assistance.

We have many quality steps in place to make sure your detergent is in tip top condition when it leaves the plant. We're sorry if this instance doesn't measure up to our standards. It may help to know that liquid laundry detergents can become thicker if they are exposed to extreme temperatures. It is still OK to use this product. It should return to normal when it reaches room temperature. For best results, we recommend storing detergents in a cool, dry place and using them within 15 months of buying them. If you have any questions, or if we can help you further with this, give us a call at (800) 879-8433.

Harriet, this is not something that we would expect to happen with our Tide detergents. Usually if a detergent gets thick like you described, it's because it has been exposed to extreme temperatures during shipping or while in storage, or it is beyond its recommended shelf life.

Suds have a time and place, and that’s not your washing machine! Our detergents should never cause too many suds, and we’d like to learn more about your experience so we can help. In the meantime, though, if any suds are left on your clothes at the end of the wash, scoop out the excess suds and run a rinse cycle with cold water. For a high-efficiency front-load washer, always make sure you’re using a high-efficiency detergent. Our Tide Ultra Stain Release Liquid Detergent comes in both regular and HE, so make sure the bottle has been marked HE. Please give us a call at (800) 879-8433 so we can learn more and help!

We used a handkerchief to stop bleeding. The next day, I put some detergent directly on it and threw it into the washing machine. There was no way to tell which handkerchief used to be the bloody one!

Tide Ultra, now with ADDED Staining Power!

The armpits of every single one of my shirts have been stained purple by Tide Ultra Stain Release Liquid. I will never again purchase another Tide product.

Too Many Suds for HE
StarStarStarStarStar1/5
Value1/5
Quality1/5

I am not a scientist but I did my own experiment, I put equal amounts of regular Tide HE and Tide Ultra Stain Release HE into equal amounts of water and shook the bottle, just as I thought the Tide Ultra Stain Release had a significant amount more of suds. This is a huge problem for my HE washer, I am going back to the regular tide. I also do not like this scent, can tide make a Mountain Spring scent for HE? Also please go back to the Original scent, they keep changing the Original scent and it's very frustrating.

Too sudsy
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

I always use Tide HE. I recently purchased the ultra stain release. After going through 3 bottles of it I realized my machine has been stopping due to suds. It has done this several times. I will continue to buy Tide, just not this particular one.

Suds Overload!!!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I recently purchased this product because the store that I was in did not carry the Tide that I usually buy. I had never used Tide+ Ultra Stain Release before so I thought I would give it a try. My first impression was that this detergent caused wasy too many suds!!! I ran three more loads using much less soap each time and rinsed the empty machine between EACH load. Still, so many suds that it caused my washer to become unbalanced each time and had difficulty draining. It's really making me feel that the bottle that I purchased was mislabled in some way. I would love to know if anyone else has had this same problem?!?!?!?

Hi there, Laundry Fairy. We are concerned about your problem with the suds. There are a few reason that could cause this, but we test our detergents carefully and when used correctly, these products should never produce too many suds. Could you give us a call so that we can gather some details regarding this issue. We want to help so you'll give us another try! Thanks!

Less Work
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I have a husband that works with greasy things and a niece that wears everything she eats. I just pour on the tide ultra stain release he no sitting just toss in the wash with the same tide. Also cleans the dirty socks from running around in them. I let ketchup dry in her shorts for 3 days then poured it on tossed in washer and washed it regularly it came out. Also works on blood stains as well.

My new "must have" product!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

As the parent of an active 10 year old little boy, I must deal with a variety of stains, the knees of his baseball uniform almost being more than I can handle. I had tried Tide stain release pods and spray with OK results and bought Tide Ultra stain release on a whim my last time at the store. It is wonderful! I apply the product and rub it in with the cap, and I am done. All stains have come out the first time. I have also had good results with using it as the detergent in a small load of stained clothes. This is my new "must have" product.

Not so Hot
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I have an HE washer. I bought the HE version of the New Tide Ultra Stain Release. I was very disappointed. Not only did it not clean as well as the Tide Original Liquid that I am accustomed to, but it didn't smell good either. The New Ultra Stain release has a funky odor that transferred to my clothes. I'm sticking with the regular Tide liquid. I hope the regular isn't discontinued to be replaced by this stuff. It would be an act of regressing modern day progress.

Amazed!
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I bought this tide hoping that it would get the different stains out of my family's clothes. My daughter had spilled chocolate milk on a new shirt that I bought her. I took her to school and left the shirt on her cause I would be late for work. She came home and threw it in the dirty clothes and I had forgot all about it. When I finally washed this shirt (two weeks later), I just threw it in the washer with the stain release which the stain did not come out. Then I pour some of the stain release detergent and used the scrubby and wash it again. I was amazed that the stain actually came out. I thought that I should have done that the first time but as I said I forgot all about it at first.

amazing removed latex paint
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I poured Tide Ultra Stain Release on a pair of Levis covered in dried white latex paint, (these were not laundered yet). I let it soak for about a week in a bucket of water and used a wire brush on the legs and all the paint came off easily. I was truly amazed, as my son thought his favorite pants they were ruined. Great product!

does not remove stains
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

My 2yrs old son ate the mango custard bread and it got to the front of his t-shirt. I immediately remove his shirt and treated it with Ultra Stain Release liquid and i poured it to the shirt and use the scrubber cup to scrubbed it and let it soaked for 2 hrs and the stain didn't come out so I used the bleach alternative tide liquid and pour on to the shirt and let it soak over night. However the stain still there. The mango yellow custard still there. I washed it with the rest of my clothes with the ultra stain release liquid detergent in the washing machine. The stain still there. I used to use regular tide but i went to Target and saw these two new liquid detergent and want to give it a try. I know my 2 yrs old always made a mess on his clothes so i want to use these two products but it didn't treat this stain and also crayon marks. I know if I used the Clorox bleach dipped it with qtip it will work but it just time consuming because part of the shirt is white and has other colors to it so i need to treat it area at a time. I hope there will be another Tide product can get rid of the food stains in the future.

Was expecting more....
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I have used Tide products for 30+ years and have always been very pleased. Until now....the new Stain Release Detergent did not perform as expected. I have two active sons who never stay clean for very long. Relatively "new stains", less than 24 hours old, did not come out the first time, even with pre-treating. Clothes were washed three times before I achieved an "acceptable" level of clean. I will go back to my original Tide.

Works Well Very Light Scent
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

We like using Tide laundry detergent but always use Free and Gentle. Our Family doesn't like heavy scented smells. This Tide has a very light fresh smell that our family doesn't seem to mind. Thank You Tide.
