The pen is compact and easy to carry around, making it perfect for on-the-go stain emergencies. The design is sleek and the cap securely snaps on, ensuring that the pen won't leak in my bag. I also appreciate that it doesn't have a strong chemical scent like other stain removers. But what really sets this pen apart is its ability to remove tough stains instantly. I've used it on everything from coffee spills to makeup stains and it has worked like magic every time. The pen has a soft scrubber tip that helps to work the solution into the fabric, making it even more effective. One of the best things about this pen is that it doesn't require any water or additional cleaning products. I simply apply the solution and let it dry, and the stain is completely gone. This saves me time and hassle, especially when I'm out and about. Another great feature of this pen is that it is safe to use on most fabrics, including delicate ones like silk and wool. I've never had any issues with discoloration or damage to my clothes, which is a huge plus.

Always in my back pocket

I keep a tide to go stick in my bathroom, in my car, and In my purse at all times. Tide to go sticks are conveniently sized for travel and storage, however they contain enough product to last what seems like a lifetime. Tide to go sticks are extremely effective, even on stains like black coffee on a white teeshirt.

Having a pen in my purse has been a life saver! It’s easy on the go, and is small enough I can throw it in a purse, the car, or the laundry room basket. It does a great job at getting out stain right in the moment, instead of waiting until I get home

Works well for the person on the go
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Let me tell you, I’m messy. I can’t go a day with spilling something on myself, on the table or on the floor. And when these spills happen, Tide To Go is my saving grace. Gets majority of stains out with leaving unwanted marks on my clothes. Plus, at pen size it’s perfect to store on the car, in a purse, in a gym bag or in your desk (or have one at each place). Definitely recommend these.

I’ve never had any issues with this product but recently I decided to use it on my new white shirt, to remove a coffee stain. It removed the coffee stain but then left me with a bigger yellow stain. Very disappointed. I applied water on the stain to see if it helped but nothing. Seems counterproductive that I use a product to remove a stain and I’m left with a bigger one.

Tide Pen
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

The Tide To Go Instant Stain Remover Pen is a handy and compact solution for dealing with unexpected stains on clothing while on the go. This pen-like stain remover is designed to quickly and effectively treat stains, helping to prevent them from setting in and ruining your clothes. One of the standout features of the Tide To Go pen is its portability. It's small enough to fit in a purse, pocket, or travel bag, making it convenient to carry with you wherever you may need it. This makes it an excellent tool for those moments when spills or stains happen when you least expect them. Using the Tide To Go pen is simple and straightforward. You just need to remove the cap, press the tip of the pen onto the stained area, and gently rub the stained fabric. The stain remover solution is released onto the fabric, and you can see the stain lifting as you rub. It's important to follow the instructions on the packaging for best results. The Tide To Go pen is effective at treating a wide range of stains, from coffee and food spills to ink and more. It's particularly useful for dealing with stains before they have a chance to set in, which can greatly improve the chances of successful stain removal. While the Tide To Go pen is generally effective, it's important to note that it may not completely remove all types of stubborn or set-in stains. In some cases, you may need to treat the stain multiple times or follow up with a more intensive cleaning method. In summary, the Tide To Go Instant Stain Remover Pen is a convenient and useful tool for tackling stains on the spot. Its portability and ease of use make it a valuable addition to your stain-fighting arsenal, especially when you're away from home. Just remember that while it's great for quick and minor stains, more challenging stains may require additional treatment.

The pen is a very good and useful idea yes, but my personal problem with it is that afterwards you have a huge wet spot on your clothes. It’s not very practical for bright clothing.

The Tide Team
We're so sorry to hear about what's happened to your brand-new white converse. Our Tide-To-Go Pen was designed to help remove those unexpected stains, and not cause them, however, there are some ways to remove the stains. While we're unsure of what methods you have tried already, to prevent this in the future, please dab the treated areas with a damp cloth to remove any excess Tide to Go solution left on the fabric. To remove the stain, simply soak the converse in a solution of 5tsp of Tide/gallon of warm water for 30 minutes. Make sure it remains completely submerged, and then wash it with a Tide Plus Bleach Alternative. This should help, but we'd like to help you with this. Please call us at (800) 879-8433.

I've used this on white upholstered fabric to get rid of cat dirt stains and it was amazing. So when my partner spilt his hot black tea on our new white and grey nylon carpet, after I'd poured cold water on it to dilute it (which didn't seem to do much) I reached for carpet cleaners and none of them worked. By the time I remembered about the Tide Instant Stain remover I figured I'd 'set' the stain with all the carpet removers - and other cleaning things like white vinegar and baking soda - that I'd already used. But NO! IT WORKED! It took a few days but it slowly started disappearing. I had to give it two applications but we got there in the end. Thank you Tide, you saved the day!

This product is AMAZING!!!!! It's perfect for the little stains /or the stains when your away from home!! Tonight I was vacuuming down on my knees when I stood up I had a sticky spot on my knee. Even though it looked like grease, I'm not sure what it was, bc it smelled too. But, I couldn't stop vacuuming right away bc there was some glass on the floor and not only did I not wanna step on it, I couldn't let my dogs step on it. So I had to hurry finish. By the time I got to go treat it several minutes have passed. But, I figured hey this will put the pen to the ultimate test. I only pressed the pen on the spot did NOT rub it or anything look you can barely see the spot! The spot was dark brown, very close to black. But, the it actually started to disappear before my eyes!! Once I rub the stain I'm positive the rest will come out! This product is well worth the money!! And I've had this pen for over a year haven't used it before this (that's why it's so faded lol) I could kick myself in the butt for it!!

This product should not be sold, used this on a couple small spots on a brand new white hoodie- seemed to clean it. However after washing the hoodie and wearing out tonight noticed two yellow spots where we used this tide stick. Very frustrating as this was a brand new very expensive hoodie. We would have been better off leaving the stain alone.

02/01/2023
The Tide Team
We're sorry you've found a yellow stain left behind after using the Tide To-Go Pen. Clean laundry is the heart of what we do, and our products are very effective when used as directed. Since the garment has already been washed, we recommend that you pretreat using Tide Liquid (pour Tide on to cover stain and let set for 20 minutes). Then, rewash in warm water with Tide before drying. To prevent a stain in the future, dab the treated areas with a damp cloth to remove any excess Tide to Go solution left on fabric, as explained on the packaging. If you need any further assistance, please give our Tide Team a call at 1-800-879-8433 Monday -- Friday from 9AM -- 6PM EST.

Sitting in my laundry room crying right now. I had the tinniest spot from blackberries on my brand new $50 pants and used the tide pen. I all the sudden noticed it was stripping the color so I stopped and threw them in the washing mashine quick to get it off. Well all that did is cause it to spread and now I have a baseball size area of my jeans that is completely stripped of its color 😭 We don’t just have money to go buy new jeans and I’ve been waiting a while for these and now they’re completely ruined 😭 Tide do you refund for ruined clothing by your products?

Must be used Instantly
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

The best results for this is if you use this right Away. It does require quite a bit of rubbing and scrubbing. The pros of this: it’s easy to use and pretty straight forward with its “push down to get the cleaning solution out, scrub with the included brush”. It doesn’t work on ink stains and I feel like accidental pen stains on my clothes are the most common.

I got coffee on my hoodie so I used a ride stick to fix it. It didn’t remove the stain, it lightened the color of the fabric where I placed it and there is a noticeable thin blue line around the lightened color. I tried to fix it with water and it made the blue line spread out even more. It’s a large and very noticeable section of my hoodie that has been ruined. Thanks a lot tide I literally can’t stop crying

Something like this is the last thing we want to come up, but you'll be happy to know this isn’t permanent damage to your hoodie. To remove the spot, just wash the hoodie again using the hottest water safe for the fabric and the recommended amount of Tide. Please reach out to us with the results of this at 800-879-8433, and we'll be happy to see the next steps we can take towards making things right for you!

We appreciate you taking the time to write about your hoodie. Our Quality Team works hard to prevent this from occurring, so we’re sorry to hear this! It may be helpful to know that it in some cases you can prevent a stain in the future by dabbing the treated areas with a damp cloth to remove any excess Tide to Go solution left on fabric.

Unable to remove Blue Gel Ink

Unfortunately for me the product did not remove any Blue Ink stain from a Blue Ink Gel Pen Stain that leaked in my white shirt pocket. No difference at all. Firstly, I followed instructions, removed the shirt placed in cold water and applied soap, scrubbing with a cloth. This did not remove much stain at all. I then used toothpaste on stain, and this removed the majority of the stain however stain could still be scene. I then used tide to go pen on stain, applied twice, removed with cold water and soap after rubbing in, however unfortunately in my case the stain remained the same. Thee was no difference at all. I had most success just using toothpaste. Perhaps I will have better luck next time, however in this case it was worth a shot to try, but I had better results using toothpaste.

We're so sorry to learn about your shirt, and we thank you for letting us know. To get stains out of any clothing with our Tide-to-Go pen, remove the excess stain residue, then, press the tip of the pen onto the stain several times to allow the stain remover to move onto the spot. Rub the tip gently across the stain to remove it; if needed, press the tip again to add more liquid and continue rubbing gently.

The Tide Team
We're sorry to hear you didn't have the experience we expect with the Tide to Go pen. We hope it helps to know, it works on many stains, but no product will remove all stains. The Tide To Go pen works best on fresh food stains (tomato juice, grape juice, ketchup, BBQ sauce, coffee, etc.) but does not work well on non-food stains such as ink, blood, grease, grass, mud. It won’t set any stains so if the stain still remains, pre-treat with Tide detergent and wash. If the item isn’t washable, take it to the dry cleaner. We'd like to get more information to help you, as well as get more information for our Quality Team. When you have a minute, please reach out to us at (800) 879-8433.

I just found the flower girl dress my daughter wore in my wedding December 1998. It got shoved in the back of a closet and forgotten. I now have three grand daughters that love to dress up. When i pulled it out I remembered that something had dripped down the front at the reception. Never got tended to. Pulled out the Tide To Go pen. It instantly brought out a chocolate smell, probably ice cream. Then the spots completely disappeared! I am stunned. Twenty-three years later those chocolate stains came instantly out of cream colored satin!

These easy to use pens take out stains pretty well, and as someone who seems to spill a lot of food on their clothing, I keep these handy wherever I go. You just push down to get some of the liquid out, then scrub it by kind of coloring on it with the clear liquid. Most stains come out pretty well.

Works 9/10 Times
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I find that these pens can remove most or all of a stain about 9/10 times. It’s really dependent on the type of material you stain, what the stain is, and how long the stain has been sitting for. The best way to use it is to let the tide solution sit then blot the stain with water/wash the garment. Also put something absorbent underneath the material so the tide pen liquid doesn’t touch you or another part of your clothes. I have saved a lot of clothes with these pens, I normally keep one on me when I’m going out. Another way to use them is to whiten your shoes! Works super well, just do a little spot test first if you are worried about ruining a certain material. I have saved my beloved vans using a tide pen (removed clay stains)

I had 4 small drips of butter hit my t-shirt. Since it is a Carhartt I don't want stains on it. I purchased one of these pens and have used it 3 times on the spots and it has not removed anything. I don't like giving products low ratings, but this truly isn't a good product.

Wayne, we're so sorry this happened to you. Butter on your Carhartt shirt is very frustrating. The Tide To Go pen is especially useful on food stains, so this isn't something we'd expect to happen. When you get a moment, give us a call at (800) 879-8433, so we can learn more and help you further with this.

The Tide Team
We're sorry you had that experience. The Tide To Go Pen works best on fresh stains to keep them from setting. To use your pen follow these steps: Remove excess residue from stain. Twist and pull to remove cap from pen. Press the tip of the pen onto the stain several times to release some stain remover onto the stain. Rub the tip gently across the stain to remove it. If necessary, press the tip again to add more liquid and continue rubbing gently. Make sure to wipe up any remaining solution from the stain and launder as soon as possible. If you have any questions or if we can help further, please give us a call at (800) 879-8433.

Thanks for your review, Bmont! We're sorry you've had this experience, but don't worry, the stains aren't permanent. You can create a soak solution by adding 1/2 use (approx. 5 teaspoons/25 mls) Tide® per gallon of warm water in a plastic bucket. Allow the garment to soak for up to 30 minutes, weighting the item with a white towel to keep it totally submerged. Then, re-wash in warmest water setting with Tide.

Instead it left a ring on my dress.... I tried getting rid of it with hot water but it's still there, try steaming it, it's still there...

Even though it looked like grease, I'm not sure what it was, bc it smelled too. But, I couldn't stop vacuuming right away bc there was some glass on the floor and not only did I not wanna step on it, I couldn't let my dogs step on it. So I had to hurry & finish. By the time I got to go treat it several minutes have passed. But, I figured hey this will put the pen to the ultimate test. I only pressed the pen on the spot & did NOT rub it or anything & look you can barely see the spot! The spot was dark brown, very close to black. But, the it actually started to disappear before my eyes!! Once I rub the stain I'm positive the rest will come out! This product is well worth the money!!

Every morning when I wake up I brew myself a cup of coffee. On this particular day, I was wearing my brand new $100 shirt. I was so happy to show it off to everyone at work, but as I was drinking my coffee my dog jumped on me. I ended up spilling all my coffee. Most of it fell on the floor, but some got on my new shirt. I tried to dry it with paper towels immediately, but most of the stain was still there. I went upstairs to the laundry room where I grabbed my Tide To Go cleaner. It was my first time trying it and I was excited to see how it worked. I followed exactly what the directions told me to do, but when I finished I realized that all it did was make the stain moist. I was so disappointed because I wasn't going to be able to wear my shirt to work. I ended up having to change my shirt and then that night I put my $100 shirt in the wash. The good thing was that the tide pods worked and got the stain completely out. In conclusion, I would definitely not recommend getting Tide To Go, but I would definitely recommend Tide's detergent.

The Tide Team
We'd expect our Tide to Go to come to the rescue and save your new shirt from those coffee stains, so we can certainly understand your disappointment. For best results, we suggest making sure you remove all the excess residue from the stain before pressing the tip of the pen onto the stain. If necessary, you can press the tip of the pen again to release more stain remover and continue rubbing it gently against the stain. Since we value your satisfaction and loyalty, we'd be happy to learn more about your experience. You're always welcome to give us a call at (800) 879-8433!

When I first got my tide pen, I loved it! I tried it on a few stains and it worked great. However, I just got a new clothing item (never wore it, still had tags on) and it happened to get a stain. I was so excited I could use my tide pen to easily get it out but the ended up making a stain 4x the size of the original stain. Not happy with it

02/15/2021
The Tide Team
This certainly isn't the experience we'd like you to have, since we want you to be able to enjoy great results with our products. However, while Tide to Go is designed to work on many stains, no product can remove all stains. It works best on fresh food stains, such as tomato juice, grape juice, ketchup, BBQ sauce, coffee, etc., but doesn't work as well on stains such as ink, blood, grease, grass, and mud. For best results, make sure to press the tip down onto the stain to release the removal solution. This product won’t set any stains, so if the stain still remains, pre-treat with Tide detergent and wash. If the item isn’t washable, you can take it to the dry cleaner. We value your satisfaction, and would be happy to learn more. When you have a chance, please feel free to give us a call at (800) 879-8433.

The Tide pen is my go-to for the occasional food and beverage stains I have, which can occur a couple times a month. The Tide pen has lessen the appearance of coffee stains from white blouses, brown sauce practically disappear from slacks and jeans, and miraculously got the orange sauce stain out from a light colored blouse. I just dab so the chemical soaks a bit and rub back and forth...and the stain pretty much disappears disappears. It's not going to make the stain 100% invisible--there obviously will be a wet spot on the area where the Tide pen went, but overall it does a great job. It's small size is convenient to put pretty much anywhere. I have one in my purse, my office desk at work and in my car. They last a while too. This new set of 3 is the first set I bought in about a year, and that's averaging stain clean up twice a month or so, plus letting my occasional colleagues use them as well.I would recommend over any other on the go stain removers.

We're sorry to hear that you had this experience, since we always want you to enjoy using Tide. We'd be happy to share our solution for removing these yellow stains from your hoodie: 1. Using a plastic bucket, create a soak solution by adding 1/2 use (approx. 5 teaspoons/25 mls) Tide per gallon of warm water. Allow the garment to soak for up to 30 minutes, weighing it with a white towel to keep it totally submerged. 2. Wash in the hottest water temperature safe for the fabric with Tide. 3. If stain remains, pretreat using Tide Liquid (pour Tide on to cover stain and let set for 20 minutes). Then, rewash in warm water with Tide before drying. To prevent this from happening in the future, we suggest making sure to dab the treated areas with a damp cloth to remove any excess Tide to Go solution left on fabric. We hope this helps! Your satisfaction means everything to us, so please give us a call at (800) 879-8433 so that we can look into this further for you and answer any questions you may have.

SUPER conveniently sized and made. I always have on in my car/purse and they've saved me on more than one occasion from the little spills- from coffee, soy sauce, to ice cream. They're easy to carry and use. Be careful though, if they're really old they start to smell vinegar-y.

This little tide on the go was exactly what I needed. My family and I just lost our homes due to a California wildfire and lost everything we ever had. We had to purchase new clothes but could only afford a few items. We now needed to save our money more then ever. I was wearing a white shirt while eating dinner, and I spilled some sauce all over my shirt. This shirt being one of the very few I had, knowing it was sure to leave a big stain, I decided to purchase a tide on the go. This little thing saved my shirt ! (And saved me another 20 bucks from having to buy a new one) so in the end my white shirt looks good as new! Thank you tide! This little product has made a huge difference!

Major design flaw: the cap simply pushes on & off. The cap always comes off in my bag and it pushes up against stuff, depressing the tip & releasing the liquid. Please make it screw top. However it does do its job and clears up any stains on the go, so it is always something i have in my purse

StarStarStarStarStar3/5

These only worked on about 60% of the stains we used them on, and when they did work, they only removed about 80% of the stain. It was more of a quick soak and pray it doesn’t get worse before the wash type of thing. It sounds good in theory “a to go pen”, but you actually have to squeeze and soak the stained spot and almost wash it between the pen and fingers, scrubbing etc, it ends up a huge wet bigger spot than before. Then you have to let that dry and genuinely hope it didn’t stay stained or get worse. Half of the time you’re better of just leaving it the way it is and throwing your clothes in the wash later. It might be good for something you can wash right away or seriously damaging that needs an instant spot treatment, but you won’t need a package of three practically ever.

Tide to go pens are a hit or miss. Some stains on certain polyester or nylon fabrics come out but most stains on cottons or suede fabrics do not. And the tip is not very user friendly. Plus there's not a lot of product in each pen so I also feel like I am not getting what I pay for.

Meghan, we're very sorry you had that experience. Our Tide to Go pens do not contain any bleach. You could be seeing white residue from the pen.

I'm so disgusted. I had been looking EVERYWHERE for months for a pink shirt for a certain college team. Finally found one and wore it for the first time today. I dropped sauce on it while eating in the car. Well I thought of the tide pen. It worked like a charm in removing the stain RIGHT ALONG WITH THE PINK DYE IN MY SHIRT leaving a white spot right in the middle on the front. It looks like I used a bleach pen instead! I have used tide detergents in various forms so long that I don't remember when I started. I trusted Tide with all my washables... Needless to say, that trust is gone.

08/15/2020
The Tide Team
Oh No! We're very sorry you had this experience. The good news is that this shouldn't be permanent. To remove the spots, just wash the item using the hottest water safe for the fabric and the recommended amount of Tide. That will remove the white spots. If you've already washed and the color has been removed, your fabric may have unstable dye. Our package advises to test for colorfastness prior to use.

I always carry tide pens with me, especially when I decide to wear white. This takes away the stain so quick and it dries really fast too. Yes you will see a wet stain but once its all dried up, your shirt or jeans would be good as new again

These little pens are great to use on the go. They get stains out super quick and they will almost disappear

StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I’m obsessed with these. They are my go-to. They get anything out and are perfect for when you’re out spill something by accident and can’t immediately wash your clothes. This is like a perfect invention.

StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I am really messy so I like to try and keep one of these in my bag at all times. They really do get lost little stains off as long as you get to it right away. And then it’s like a pretreatment for when you wash the garment. So smart!

When it comes to Todd products you can't go wrong they're awesome they do remove stains specially on white t-shirts when they used to have this thing then we tried this one it works sometimes it keeps us from going to the dry cleaners all the time the prices under $10 for the mini one you also can find the full size at Walmart I would definitely recommend this product you might be the father in your local Dollar General but I would definitely try Walmart when it comes to looking for Todd products

These are great to carry in your purse and great for travel,they work great but not to crazy about the smell.

07/30/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

Perfect to keep in your car for any opsies you may have on the go. Not always efficient in getting the stain out 100%

07/29/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

These pens are such a lifesaver! They take out any stain, from pen marks to food, in an instant. I love the small size that makes it so easy to keep in a purse or backpack. Highly recommend!

StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I love these little pens! These are great for tossing in your diaper bag or purse and having them handy when accidents happen. They work very well, like magic the stain is gone! I do highly recommend!

07/29/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

Convenient to have around just in case cause you never know when something will happen. It works for most stains if you get to them right away. 

07/29/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Definitely a good little items have on the go weather in your purse or if you're traveling. In your pocket or in your desk. Just pretty much anywhere. it's great at removing small stains and to help get them out in the wash. That said if you have a sizable grease or food stain (I'm looking at you, curry) don't expect this to magically make it go away.

07/29/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I love Tide sticks, they really are convenient and tend to get stains out on the go. My only complaint is that I can't always find them in my local grocery store/ wholesaler. Would totally recommend!

07/29/2020

I love this stuff it helps a lot it’s been my life saver when I accidentally stain my clothes works like a charm

07/28/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Tide to go stain remover pens are the greatest invention since electricity! They get almost all of those tough stains out of my clothes almost immediately. Love that it can solve the dirty laundry problem in an instant while you're out and about.

07/28/2020

I Keep these with me at all times! They are a life saver. They are a little pricey, but they are worth it and last a while!

07/28/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

These are lifesavers especially since I’m clumsy and spill things fairly often. They’re perfect for spot removal and I like having one on me in my work bag and my purse I take out on weekends. The only downside is that you have to use it on fairly fresh stains (I haven’t had luck using it on older stains), and sometimes it leaves a ring on your clothes depending on what fabric it was used on

07/27/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

These are life savers. I always carry one in my purse and the trick is you have to use it as soon as the stain has happened.

07/26/2020
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

I feel like this wants to try and work on stains but in reality it doesn’t do much.

07/25/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I love these. They are packaged in a convenient on the go package and actually work. They're great for emergencies and the packaging makes them great to carry so they're with you when you need them.

Tide always comes in handy when I need a stain remover. This works on shirts, couches, chairs, etc. and I would highly recommend having it on hand

07/25/2020
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

These work sometimes and other times they seem to end up spreading the stain to a much larger area but making the stain slightly less noticable. They also seem to run out very very quick. I would say it is a decent product, it is definitely very convenient. 

07/24/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I really love this product. Using the Tide to Go has saved me on countless occasions. I love how easy it fits in by bag. It’s so easy to use! All you have to do is press down on the tip and rub. Two easy steps and the stain disappears!! I highly recommend this product to others!!!

07/23/2020

All day everyday, carry in purse. This is such a life saver all the time. It takes all my stains away, I don't think there is a con with this. Everyone should have ghis in their home plus it is not expensive and worth it! Try it, you will be thankful later.

I always have one of these in my purse or backpack at all times. This is a definite lifesaver for “that toothpaste dribble down the front of your shirt you’ve had on it since you ran out of the house in a hurry so you didn’t notice it til now” moment. It works really really well!

07/20/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

Loveeee my Tide pen. It’s definitely saved my butt a few times. Unfortunately, it did discolor one of my shirts once. Left a bleached out looking dot where I used it. Thankfully, it was a pajama shirt, but it was still annoying. Other than that, I’ve always trusted it to get out a pesky stain.

07/20/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This is a great product to keep near you. That's why I love that's is to go. It's really good on stains and not big.

07/19/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Great little things for removing food stains from your clothes that you accidentally got on it. Also helps with other stains so it won’t make it harder to remove them in the wash later. I love them and keep one at work and in the car for any stain emergencies

07/18/2020

We like to use tide to go stain remover pens. They are easy to pack and Carry. They do a great job removing stains. They are not very expensive.

07/18/2020

I always carry this Tide pen in my purse. It is great for emergencies. Years ago, I stained my my white jeans and used the Tide pen to remove it. The stain was removed afterwards.

07/17/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I love THISS!! I take it on the go and it works immediately. It prevents from the stain staying there permanently.

07/17/2020
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I don’t find these stain remover pens to be effective. They don’t always remove the stain or if they do it leaves a water mark.

07/17/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Love these sticks! I always make sure to keep one or two in my purse just in case! I highly recommend!

07/17/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I carry my trusty Tide Pens with me everywhere! They're lightweight and barely take up any space. I'm a clumsy person, so I need them. And they work!! It even helped me get a coffee drop off my white denim pants once! They super affordable too!

07/16/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

These pens are great to keep in your bag or car to get rid of those emergency stains. Just rubbed it on and wait for it to dry and within minutes the stain is gone! I took off one star because I noticed if you kept the pen for a long period of time, instead of the nice clean detergent smell, it began to smell like vomit. Once it smells like that, you’re not going to want to remove stains because it will make your clothes smell like vomit and that is even worse than a stain because the odor follows you no matter what you do!

07/16/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

A tide stick is a must have purse item! My mom always has one in her purse just in case.

The pen is precise and definitely gets out stains. I keep one in my purse for emergencies.

07/16/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

Great at getting out stains but only if you can take off the clothing item. Otherwise you’ll be walking around with a big wet spot of smelly solution on your clothing. I keep one with my laundry items and one in my travel items. Good to have and works great, minus the above.

07/15/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

Súper convenient. I have one in my car and purse at all times. Pros, it gets the stain out, cons it leaves a wet spot stain on certain fabric.

07/15/2020
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

Sometimes these work, sometimes they don’t. I think it’s still worth having around just in case you spill something because it at least comes out a little!

07/15/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

My experience with tide to go is hit or miss but must depend on what causes the stain. The pen is also slightly runny so it is hard to control.

07/15/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

These smell like crap! Really awful smell. BUT, they do actually work some what. I have used this product for little stains I’ve had on my shirts or pants and for the most part, it rids my stain. It does require some pressure and a lot of product kinda comes out when you push in but it’s worth giving a shot.

07/15/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

We have being using this for when we go on trips. They work great and it a good idea for anyone with kids.

07/15/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

It works great. It’s the quickest and easy way to remove stains from clothes especially if you are somewhere at a restaurant and it gets on your white too. It’s handy and easy to apply and it removes stains right away. Totally recommend it on the go.,

good for light stains if you use it instantly but not too good with bigger stains definitely a must in my purse tho

Works good you can pick it up at Walmart however it’s kind of pricey but nothing you can’t do with a little bit of regular detergent and elbow grease.

I work with children for a living and am constantly eating on the move. Two things that just beg for stains. These tide to go sticks are a life saver! They are easy to take with you and are easy to store! While they don’t get EVERY stain out, they certainly have saved quite a few articles of clothing!

These get the job done✅ I love using these pens to remove the stains. These pens a easy quick to use just rub them in and I let it sit there for a bit and then throw it in the washer. They are affordable and last a while so that’s a plus for me. I would recommend it to a friend

StarStarStarStarStar5/5

These were a lifesaver. I was walking to the bus and decided it was a great decision to drink coffee while walking. Like a scene from an infomercial, I spilled coffee all over my white shirt. Yes, the classic coffee on the white shirt.

07/12/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I bought a multi-pack and keep it in my travel bag, in the car, laundry room and at work. It’s easy to use as it loosens the stain, if they apply it, as soon as the stain happens, and wash or dry clean as soon as possible. It works for me!

07/12/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

These work really well, they’re very convenient, whenever I have a stain, which is not very often I just put tide to go on my clothes, let it saturate and then toss it in the wash. The stain is always gone, it’s always best to treat your stains as soon as possible instead of leaving them for days. This remover pen is great for travel or just to have in your every day bag.

07/12/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

These tide to go stain remover pads are one of the best inventions ever. They’re easy to use and you can carry them everywhere. I love getting a pack of three so I can leave them in my car, purse, and my room.

07/11/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I haven’t used these in a long time so I’m not sure how they’ve improved but back years ago they didn’t work very well.

07/11/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I am a HUGE fan of Tide to go!! I always have one in my purse! I can’t tell you how many times I have been out with friends and this pen has come to someone’s rescue. And now being a mom to a little boy (and wife to a husband) it continues to come in handy. It really does work, it has saved countless items of clothing from being permanently stained (or at least a tougher battle later on). I used to buy them individually, but the 3 pack just makes more sense. I always have a Tide to go on me, in the house or even the car. It is one of my favorite little inventions!!

07/11/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

These are our go to for messes. . They fit in my purse or in the car for road trips. Handy

StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Tide to go stain remover pens really do come in handy. It honesty is like a relief when someone says “i have a tide pen don’t worry” I use these on my clothes (obvs), shoes, comforters, and on furniture

07/11/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Gotta say, these things are fabulous. Super convenient to keep around the house, in your purse, etc. Works well on small to medium sized stains. You just apply pressure to the area and let the product dry.

StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I always stash these Tide To Go Stain Pens 3 Count all over the place. I have one in my car, one in my son’s car, one in my purse, one in my bathroom and one in the kitchen. They work great to get a stain out in a pinch. If you aren’t in a position to immediately treat and wash your clothes, this product works amazingly. I definitely recommend.

07/11/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

Always keep one of this in my bag for coffee or food stains I might get on myself on work. Works pretty well to get rid of most common stains and is a convenient tube to carry around. Will continue using!

07/11/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

These are fantastic to keep in your desk or purse or car in case you spill or get a small stain during the day. They are super easy to use and get out most food stains really easily on the spot. The only downside is that they smell a little strange and that smell will linger on your clothes until you can throw them into the wash.

07/11/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

Very good for on the go, I’m very clumsy with food and stuff so I tend to get dirty fast but this does it’s magic sometimes it takes time to come off! But is very good and affordable.

I really like this product. It’s small enough to keep in your wallet or purse. As long as you treat the stain right away there shouldn’t be any problems with removing it. Have used it plenty of times at restaurants etc :)

07/11/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

The absolute best product ever. I am always so pleased when I make a mess on my clothes and dig in my purse and I have a tide to go stick. It does the job everytime!!

07/11/2020
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I have one in my purse at all times. It isn’t full proof but works pretty well to work out a new stain. It does seem to make colors bleed when you’re rubbing it in to some stains, so just be warned, especially when the item is a dark design on a white base.

07/11/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I always have one of these in my bag wherever I go because the few times I didn’t have one I regretted it! Although I will say these don’t work on ink stains, but that’s another story. I can’t tell you how many stains I’ve gotten out using these. No matter how hard we try sometimes stains just happen and thankfully these pens have gotten out every stain I’ve ever dealt with. Some come out better than others, but then I just use a stain stick over night before tossing in the wash and then I’m d as new again.

07/10/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I love tide to go. I always keep one in bag and they work great at quick fixes! Especially with two young kids, these are perfect for all the inevitable stains.

StarStarStarStarStar5/5

It never fails. Im out in public for a special occasion and my kids slob up their shirt. My favorite was when my son slobbed up his shirt right before a wedding... he was the ring bearer!!!! The photographer came to the rescue with a Tide pen and I was sold, immediately!! The mark wasnt completely gone but gone well enough that it wasnt visible unless you were really looking for it. She saved the day! Since then, I always carry one with me whether its for a kid mess or for myself. Theyre so handy to have in your purse or car! Cant live without them anymore!

07/10/2020

StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I haven’t had to use these in awhile, and I don’t know what I was doing in the past, but I used to keep one of these on me at all times. It’s definitely affordable because one pen lasts quite awhile. Shout wipes are good at removing stains to, but I prefer the tide packaging.

These are great to have in your purse or in your car! As a chef I use these a lot for when I am at work if I need to look presentable for a customer but yet have a small stain on my shirt it takes less than 10 seconds of rubbing the pen on the stain and it’s completely gone. Plus I like that it’s pretty much like a pre-treat for the stain!

07/10/2020
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

These are so nice to have in your office or in your vehicle. If you can catch the stain fast then you can usually get it to go away. Nothing worse than being stuck away from home with a stain on your shirt.

The Tide Team
This is not something that we would expect to happen with the Tide To Go pen, and we're very sorry you had that experience. The Tide To Go pen works best on fresh food stains (tomato juice, grape juice, ketchup, BBQ sauce, coffee, etc.) but does not work well on ink, blood, grease, grass, mud. For best results using the pen, press the tip down onto the stain to release the removal solution. Tide to Go won’t set any stains so if the stain still remains, pre-treat with Tide detergent and wash. If the item isn’t washable, take it to the dry cleaner. Please give us a call if you have any questions, by calling (800) 879-8433.

We're sorry you had that experience, Rowelau. When you use a Tide To Go pen, you should always dab the treated areas with a damp cloth to remove any excess Tide to Go solution left on fabric. This is explained on the packaging. In the meantime, we have tips for you to get that yellow out. 1. Using a PLASTIC bucket, create a soak solution by adding 1/2 use (approx. 5 teaspoons/25 mls) Tide® per gallon of warm water. Allow the garment to soak for up to 30 minutes, weighting the item with a WHITE towel to keep it totally submerged. 2. Wash in warmest water setting with Tide. Try Tide Plus Bleach Alternative. 3. If stain remains, pretreat using Tide Liquid (pour Tide on to cover stain and let set for 20 minutes). Then, rewash in warm water with Tide before drying. Before treating any garment, refer to the instructions on the care label. Always test solution on a hidden area first. If treating washable silk or wool, follow basic instructions, but hand wash. If you have any questions for us, please give us a call at (800) 879-8433.

We're sorry to hear that you experienced staining. We have included our soaking steps in our message and also have some further tips. We hope that you will give these a try. <br /><br />Using a PLASTIC bucket, create a soak solution by adding 1/2 use (approx. 25 mls) Tide® per gallon of warm water. Allow the garment to soak for up to 30 minutes, weighting the item with a WHITE towel to keep it totally submerged. Wash in warmest water setting with 1 use of Tide. Try Tide Plus Bleach Alternative. If stain remains, pre-treat using Tide Liquid (pour Tide on to cover stain and let set for 20 minutes). Then, rewash in warm water with 1 use of Tide before drying. Before treating any garment, refer to the instructions on the care label. Always test solution on a hidden area first. If treating washable silk or wool, follow basic instructions, but hand wash. If none of these tips work, please give us a call at 800-879-8433.<!--[if ReviewResponse]><![endif]-->

Typically, if you use a damp cloth to dab away any excess Tide to Go solution left on the fabric, you should continue to have brilliantly white pants, as expected. Thankfully, the staining your seeing is removable. Just mix a soak solution in a plastic bucket using 1/2 dose (approximately 25 mls) of Tide detergent per gallon of warm water. Allow the pants to soak for up to 30 minutes, weighting them down with a white towel, ensuring they stay completely submerged. After soaking, wash in the warmest water setting with 1 dose of Tide detergent (we recommend Tide Plus Bleach Alternative) to revive your garment. In hopes that you'll consider giving Tide another try, we'd also like to invite you to give us a call at 1-855-236-3353 so we can help further in reviving your trust in Tide as well. We look forward to hearing from you again soon!<br /><br />Amanda @ Tide<!--[if ReviewResponse]><![endif]-->

Loved this product until I used it last night on my favorite camel colored coat. I got red lipstick on the coat and although it was a small mark I figured the pen would remove the stain as it usually has with other clothing. Once I used it on the coat it seemed to remove it until I checked the following day and realized the HUGE white mark left on my coat. It is completely ruined :( I am trying to research on how to fix it but I am worried there's no hope. Someone please let me know if theres anything I can do to fix this? Thanks.

Hi Vanessa! We're sorry that you've had issues with Tide To Go. This doesn't sound like permanent damage. To remove the spots, just wash the item again using the hottest water safe for the fabric and the recommended amount of Tide. If it does not wash out, your fabric may have unstable dye. We always recommend doing a colorfast test before use. If you have any further questions, please give us a call at 1-855-236-3353. Thank you!

Shoddy pen design

I bought a 3-pack of the Tide to Go pens thinking I could have one stashed in my home, work, and car. However, upon trying to use the pens I found that the caps do not come off easily. In fact, on two of them the cap was held on so tight that instead of coming off, the whole top of the pen came off in my hand and spilled detergent all over the place. What a waste of money!

We're so sorry that you're having trouble with our To Go pen. A new cap was made to be tighter when we learned the old cap was too loose and came off to easily when in storage. We are working on the finding the right balance between too tight and too loose. In the meantime, it is always good to twist and pull when attempting to remove the cap. We hope you'll bear with us as we work on this issue. Thanks!

I got some mascara on my white pants and Tidetogo did not get it out. I was disappointed, but do like the idea of having a stain remover in my purse

Hi Thalia! Thanks for giving Tide to Go a try. Tide to Go works on many stains, but no product will remove all stains. This works best on fresh food stains (tomato juice, grape juice, ketchup, BBQ sauce, coffee, etc.) but does not work well on ink, blood, grease, grass, mud. We're sorry it didn't work for your mascara stain, but we can provide a long-term stain solution for your problem. Give this a try: http://www.tide.com/en-US/stains/result/cosmetics.jspx Thanks!

White Blouse Possibly Ruined

While shopping at a local food store, samples of salsa were given to customers. My sample just happened to drop on the front of my new, beautiful white blouse. Attendant gave me Tide to Go which took the stain out. But less than 1 hour, I had a terrible yellow stain on the front of my blouse. Came home, threw it in the washing machine with Tide Detergent and it would not come out (did not put it in the dryer or the stain would have set forever). However, fingers crossed, I just poured distilled white vinegar on the entire stain and have it soaking with detergent in hot water. Looks like this may have done the trick by removing the stain. I will leave it soak overnight and hopefully the stain is gone. Vinegar is a wonderful cleaning agent for many things. Yep, fingers crossed!

So sorry this has happened! These yellow stains are typically caused by excess stain remover left on the fabric. When you use our Tide To Go pen, please dab any possible excess stain remover to prevent staining such as this. We're glad you got it out, though!

I used A Tide-to-go stick on a very tiny stain on my BRAND NEW blue pants that I bought yesterday. The stain came out but it dried and the color was completely stripped from the pants. I cannot believe brand new pants are ruined :( I don't have a lot of money and I never get new things. This is devestating to me. I hope Tide does something to change that, as it seems to be a common side-effect. I'm so sad.

Hi there! We're so sorry about this. This often happens when excess stain remover is left on the fabric. When you use the pen, use something to dab the excess from your stain so there is no side effect. If it continues to be an issue, however, please call at 1-800-879-8433. Thanks!

Do not use on expensive dress
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I'm a loyal Tide user for laundry, and also carry Tide To Go in my suitcase pouch. Applied it to stain on designer dress after dinner on trip. Stain remained, but with the addition of a 3" oval discoloration that did not disappear. Dry cleaner at home said the Tide had permanently removed the color from the fabric. Incredibly, he was able to restore the appearance. Worth noting: other similar stains on the dress that were not treated with Tide To Go that night came out just fine in the dry cleaning. If I'd simply waited, I would have been spared vacation-blues from thinking I'd ruined a gorgeous dress by taking the advice of the advertising.

09/12/2014
The Tide Team
Hello! We think we have an explanation for what has happened. When you use our To Go Pen, you must dab the excess stain remover off of the fabric before letting it work its magic. If not, it may affect your fabric. If this happens again, please call at 1-800-879-8433 and we will see if there is something else causing this. Thank you.

Spot out but new stain remained

I have purchased Tide to Go before and had good results. I recently purchased the Tide to Go Mini for our vacation. I applied the the stain remover to my husband's shirt, as well as mine. The stains came off immediately, but the shirts were left with yellow stains which cannot be removed. I was so disappointed. My shirt was brand new and my husband's shirt was an older, but nice one. I threw mine away, but fortunately could still purchase a new one at a sale price. My husband now wears his to work on the farm. As for the offensive Tide to Go smell, this is only if it is an old stain remover. The new ones are fine.

Tide-to-go saved my pants

This is my first unsolicited consumer review but I was inspired. Just today, I dropped a fresh raspberry on my pants @ work. I didn't notice until it had stained them beyond fixing with the dish detergent in our kitchen here. I had left my Tide-to-go pen (never used before !) @ home but someone suggested trying the small store in our building. They had it ! $$$ but well worth it... It truly saved one of my favorite pair of slacks: Orange (color of Tide container) cropped ones pants are basically irreplaceable ! Thanks, Tide-to-go !

Disappointing result
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

My elderly mother dripped catsup on her blouse and slacks on the way to a doctor's appointment. Stopped at nearby store to get her Tide to Go after seeing advertisement for the product so she would not have to return home to change. The catsup stain was VERY fresh. Removed the excess catsup and applied Tide to Go to stain. It did NOT remove the stain, merely smeared it/lightened it and created a ring on her clothing in both places. In fact, when the physician entered the room, she immediately asked, "What happened." We threw the product away -- it does not work as advertised!

Amazing Results!!!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I've used Tide to Go for quite a while with wonderful results. BUT, when I assisted an elderly neighbor and her dog from an attack by stray dogs last night, wasn't thinking about my favorite white jacket - which ended up covered in blood. As soon as I got home, treated the blood stains with Tide to Go, most of the blood came out. Poured Tide Laundry Detergent directly on the remaining stains and immediately laundered the jacket. It's cleaner than clean - I was amazed since it wasn't supposed to work well on blood. But it did - and I can't thank you enough!!!

I am highly disappointed in Tide-to-go. I got a small, simple stain on colored pants at work and thought my Tide-to-go would be the easy answer. That's exactly what it is for right?

My son and daughter in law came to take me out for brunch on Mother's Day. I was wearing white pants and a pretty blouse and carried a cup of coffee, my first mistake! My son hit a pothole and my coffee splashed on my white pants. We were too far away to go home so I could change my clothes. My daughter in law, Shari, opened her purse and took out her Tide To Go and I got all the coffee stains out of my pants! I was so happy I went out and bought myself one the next day! And Mother's day was perfect!

Might as well use water
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I went a local mexican restaurant and got some spatters of red sauce on my brand new white dress shirt.Nothing large. The biggest spatter was no larger than a pea. Immediately i washed off the excess food making sure to pat it, not whipe at it to keep the stain from spreading. Within 10 minutes of getting the stain I added the tide to go pen to all the spatters. After 20 minutes it was dry and the stains had not, in the slightest, gone away. I made sure it was fully dry and tried applying it again. Nothing. In fact, the stains color actually dispersed across the entire area I had applied the Tide to Go. On top of that there are dark circles around the edges of where it was wet. This pen just ruined a $70 shirt. Now any stain remover I use won't get the dark circles out. My shirt is ruined. Great job Tide. Buyers beware. It has a $3 price tag for a reason

Worthless!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I've used this several times, always making excuses. Oh, it must be an old pen, maybe its just the wrong fabric to use it on, etc. etc. Unlike other reviewers, I have not had issues with the cap falling off. I do have two issues with this product, that to me make it worthless. 1. It leaves the treated area slightly discolored (until you wash it, at least for washable fabrics), which is almost more noticeable than the stain itself. 2. It smells. Bad. Like really, really bad. My coworker used it and had to change. It's very strong and very unpleasant. It's distracting. I know it's not a fluke. I've purchased 4 pens in my life and they're all the same. I've heard the same from others. I'm surprised More reviewers did not comment on the stench. This is not something I would waste my money on. Very disappointing product from a company that continuously releases great products.

coffee stain

I had an important meeting and bought a brand new white shirt for $70 which I never do. I cut the tags off, put the shirt on and headed to my meeting. After the meeting I was driving in my car. Of course I spilled coffee all over myself and was immediately in a panic thinking I had ruined my new shirt. I stopped at a hotel and tried to rinse the coffee out with water to no avail. I called my wife who suggested I go to a store and get a tide pen to see if it would help. The product is amazing. It was literally like a magic trick erasing the coffee stain on my new shirt.

On my wedding this past June, I had accidentally sat in coffee right before the wedding ceremony. It left a huge coffee stain on the back of my dress. In a panic, (and obviously, I was trying to stay calm as best I could), my bridesmaids brought out their Tide to GO sticks. After about 15 minutes...and with about 3 "Tide to Go" sticks, the stain COMPLETELY came out. It was amazing. Tide to GO seriously saved my white wedding dress and my wedding!

Has some Pros but MORE Cons
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

Tide-to-go is great at lifting stains, however, if you get a tide-to-go pen like I did, you won't be satisfied. These pens tend to spoil over time and if you purchase one that spoils, it will cause your clothes to smell and smell strongly. The smell is unpleasant and can be compared to vomit or sour milk. Tide-to-go should be sold like milk, with an expiration date. I used to be an avid user of Tide products but now that I've experience what I've experienced, along with the money I've wasted, I can no longer trust Tide products!

My wife and I use the stick successfully a lot. We frequently eat out alone and with groups of friends. Someone inevitably stains a shirt, blouse or pants. When we have the stick it works great. The problem with the stick is our collective memories. We often forget it altogether or leave in in the car. I thought it would be a good idea to be able to put one our key chains. The keys always make into the restaurant so we would always have for immediate use.

Worth it's weight in gold!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

$3 Tide Pen saved me $37: I had a blue, liquid ink pen leak on a white dress shirt in the middle of my work day (client facing). I started with the Tide pen and the stain started to spread. Co-workers though I was nuts and that the shirt was garbage. I blotted with paper towels and continued with the Tide Pen. Within 10 minutes, the stain was 98% gone and the ink that had spread was eliminated. Tide pen saved my shirt and my day. A new shirt would have cost $30. A drive home would have lost 90 minutes of productivity and cost two gallons of gas (say $3.50 X 2).

It removes most stains like red wine, but pasta sauce just leaves the stain a light orange. I just wish they would print the directions on the actual stick and have a screw on cap.

So on the first day of starting a new job, I spilled tea on my shirt. This is a very common stain and one of the food stains this product is recommended for use on. I was so proud of myself for having my tide to go pen with me! Unfortunately, the tide pen failed to remove the tea, but even worse it bleached my shirt so now I have a tea stain surrounded by a light yellow ring on a bright yellow shirt.

Yellow stains on new white shirt
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I have used the Tide to Go pen in the past with success, and have appreciated having it in my suitcase. However, I have just purchased a white, cotton shirt which now has two yellow stains on the front where I used the Tide to Go pen. I was trying to remove two small red spots that splashed on the shirt from preparing raspberries. The fruit stains disappeared, but the yellow stains that resulted are obvious in sunlight. I've washed the shirt, and the yellow remains. I've called Tide, and the customer service agent recommended more Tide detergent directly on the stains over night, followed by rewashing. I'm trying this now. Hopeful, but very disappointed in the meantime.

Stain removal is fabulous with Tide-To-Go! Quick and efficient product! However - the cap should be screw-on so it stays on. The product dries out quickly if uncapped, and in my purse, that is a daily occurance. Please - P & G - fix this problem!!

Some things you can improve

Your product is AMAZING!! I works fast,it's simple,it also actually fights stains. But, you could put more of the cleaning agent in the Tide to go. I am a messy eater (sometimes) and I spill food and have lots of stains. Another thing is the cap. It keeps falling off. Thus,the stick dries out or leaks. Other than that, your product is AWESOME!!!! I LOVE Tide!:)

The tide stick has let me down before, but in less important situations so never felt the urge to write a review but today I tried to remove a stain off of a tie for a friend who was rushing out to a meeting. (He is in sales and always has to look his best) I used the pen as always and when it dried the stain was still there....i guess from now on i shall resort to the old cloth and seltzer trick. that has never failed me. Tide stick is no longer on my shopping list.

I'm sorry the Tide to Go didn't work for the stain on your friend's tie. It works on many stains, but no product will remove all stains. The Tide To Go pen works best on fresh food stains (tomato juice, grape juice, ketchup, BBQ sauce, coffee, etc.) but does not work well on ink, blood, grease, grass, mud. Tide to Go Stain Eraser works best on removing fresh food and drink stains as well as greasy food stains. It does not perform as well on non-food stains such as make up and ink stains. For best results using the pen, press the tip down onto the stain to release the removal solution. Tide to Go Stain Eraser works best when it is activated immediately or within 15 minutes after getting a stain. After the stain-fighting solution has been released onto the microfiber pad, there is a limited window in which to use the product before the solution dries. Tide to Go won’t set any stains so if the stain still remains, pre-treat with Tide detergent and wash. If the item isn’t washable, take it to the dry cleaner. Hope this helps.

Amazing!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I purchased a "to go" stick for a recent trip to Mexico. Day 3 I got blood on the knee of my white pants. The "to go' stick got rid of the blood stain with little effort. Back at home a leaky pen got put in the wash. My husband's new fleece came out with an ink stain about the size of a silver dollar. Desperate for a solution, I remembered the stain pen in my travel bag. Viola! It again did the trick and the fleece is good as new.

Good product, bad "pen"

I love this product, but the cap doesn't stay on...dries out and I have to throw it away. Why not a screw on cap?

Not throwing blouse away!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

When your daughter shops on her own and then spends her own money on a special gift just for you and blueberry sauce is splashed on the front of the blouse the first time you wear it.... Grab your Tide to go stick and no more worries! Thank you for a great product!

Frustrated and Disapointed
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I bought a Tide to Go Instant Stain Remover Pen because it seemed like every time I would wear my brand new Kenny Chesney concert t-shirt I would end up getting something on it. Sure enough the first time I wear the shirt after getting the pen I get BBQ Sauce on it. I used the pen and the stain did not come out like the commercials said it would, which to be honest I didn't expect it to, I mainly just wanted the pen to prevent the stain from setting in the fabric since I was in a restaurant. When I got home I immediately put the shirt in the wash, but sadly the BBQ sauce has not come out. I have had to purchase another product and treat the shirt a couple of times just to get all of the stain out. This product does not work the way it claims, at least it didn't for me. Worse $5.00 I have ever spent.

No dice here!!!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

Had a small ink stain the size of a BB in my shirt pocket. I know the directions say does not work well on ink but what the hay. I used the Tide To Go pen on the ink stain and it grew to the size of a quarter. It was black now it is a huge gray stain. I could of lived with the BB size stain in the pocket but a big gray stain the size of a quarter ruined the shirt. Very disappointed!!!

Ruined my dress shirt
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

A coworker offered me a Tide stain remover stick to fix a new stain on my dress shirt. The Tide stain remover only changed the color of the stain from a subtle red/brown to a bright yellow stain. Thanks Tide for ruining a $100 shirt!

Why did mine not work?
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I was under the impression that the Tide to Go Instant Stain Remover (T2Go) really works. However, I purchased one this morning for almost $5.00.I had about three coffee stains on my 100% cotton white shirt in which I tried to get out. The stains lightened up, but they were nowhere near gone. Plus a water mark ring was left around the stains. Should I have gotten T2Go with bleach if one like that exists because mine did not work at all?

removes blood

my boyfriend had 4 bloody noses in 24 hours. I tried the Tide to go Stain Remover and it removed the stains from the sheets, pillow case, his shirt, and even the mattress and carpet. I would gladly recommend this product to everyone!

Tide to Go Pen
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I was just at the supermarket, buying fresh raspberries when the package leaked all over my white sweatshirt. After checking out, I decided to go back for a stain removed and picked up the Tide to Go Pen. It took about 5 minutes to remove the raspberry stain completely! I am so happy I purchased this product.

Made Just for Me
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Why do I always seem to have spaghetti when I wear my white shirt? I did again today and of course I got some spaghetti sauce splatter on my shirt. Thank goodness for this product. It works like a champ. Now no one outside the break room knows how much of a slob I am except me. I love this product.

stinky!
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I keep a pen in my office drawer and in my car for emergencies. I'm a very messy eater, so it comes in handy often. However, this pen smells terrible. I immediately blot/wet my clothes to get the awful smell out. It's unfortunate that while I'm eating lunch, and inevitably spilling on myself, I lose my appetite after getting a whiff of this pen trying to clean myself up. Please, please (!!) add some anti-vomit smelling chemical to this solution.

11/13/2012
Gets very smelly when not brand new
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

I also have the same complaint about the cap not staying on in my purse. I have to keep it in a baggie to keep it from leaking all over my purse. My other complaint is that it doesn't last long before it develops a foul odor. Every few months, I have to replace it because it stinks like vomit. I had to use it yesterday and it did get the stain out but I had to get a wet rag to get that smell out of my blouse before my coworkers smelled it on me. VERY STINKY!! Why is that? Your chemists need to work on that because I hate having to keep buying a new one when the one I have is still relatively full. Money down the drain as far as I'm concerned.

Beware of permanent stains from this pen
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I used the pen to remove a small soda stain on a white blazer. The soda is gone, however, there is a large water mark left from the pen. After a trip to the cleaners, the stain remains..I'm very disappointed!

10/21/2012
The Tide Team
Hate to hear you had a water mark left after using the Tide To Go. Please be assured, this is very unusual and we wouldn’t expect this to happen. Fortunately, the mark can be removed by pre-treating the affected area overnight with Tide liquid detergent. After pre-treating, wash the item as you normally would and add bleach (be sure to check the care tag label first). To prevent such a stain from occurring in the future, dab the treated areas with a damp cloth or napkin to remove any excess Tide to Go solution left on the fabric. Hope this helps!

Great product! Design flaw
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I love this product, usually have a stick in my purse and it works great to prevent stains from setting in. My only critic of the product is the design of the cap; for whatever reason, the cap will not stay on the stick. This has happened to me every single time I've purchased this, and as a result the tide stick dries up prematurely in my bag. I hope they fix this design flaw

Miracles Can Happen!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I had spilled red stamp ink on my favorite hoodie and I thought it was gone forever! I used almost an entire pen on it because I applied it several times throughout the day. When I got home, I threw it in the wash, and VIOLA! the stain was gone. Thank you tide pen! :) The minus side to this thing is, I have had these before, the caps come off in my purse and they dry out before I use them. I happened to have a pretty new one with me, so it was still good. Also, they stink, so I avoid using them if I think it can wait because I don't want to walk around smelling like that. Overall, two thumbs up!

Two Year Old Wine Stain... Gone!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This weekend I got out the dress I wore on my honeymoon - two years ago. Friends were hosting a fancy dinner and it was the first chance I'd had to wear the dress since my honeymoon. When I got it out of the closet, I noticed a splatter of red wine spots, a two-year-old stain that I had never treated at all. I didn't have much hope, but got out my Tide Pen (which I've owned forever but rarely use) to give it a try. A little scrub of the pen on each wine dot, and the dress was pure white again. Absolutely as good as new. I could not be more impressed with this product. Anything that can remove a two-years-old red wine stain is a champion in my book!

poorly designed cap--foul smelling
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I have used your Tide pen many times in the past and it ids usually very good for taking stains off clothing but the last 2 pens have had a real problem..After using the pen on my clothing-there is a very foul smelling odor that is just terrible and hangs with you for hours..The last 2 pens have had this foul smell..It is awful and I actually had to wash a shirt today immediately after I arrived home to try to eliminate this foul smell...Your company has evidentally put another chemical in the pen..I will not buy another one till you fix this problem...

I'm not going to buy this pen again!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I think the To Go pen is great and works well. However, once it's opened, the cap comes off in my purse. I am lucky to get one or two uses out of each pen, then it dries up. You need to devise a screw-on cap, or a cap that seals securely! I have been burned so many times by this product, I will not purchase it again.

08/02/2012
Good product, bad design
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I love the results from Tide to Go pen but the design of the cap is horrible. I have had at least 5 of these pens and without fail the cap comes off in my purse. I constantly have some of the fluid leaking in my purse. There must be a way to design a cap that stays on! A screw top maybe? This design flaw made me open to trying a Duane Reade generic version. Fix the cap and I'm back.

Best Stain Remover HANDS DOWN!
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

As hard as I try I can't seem to get through a meal or an activity without getting some sort of stain on me. Tide to go has definitely been a life saver....or at least a clothes saver! Salad dressing, barbecue sauce and even fresh made blueberry sauce have all come out with this product. I carry one in my purse, my car and even my gym bag! It has not only saved my clothes but those of many of my friends since I always have it with me. The only reason I have rated this item a 4 out of 5 is because of the poor design of the cap. Every time I fish for it in the bottom of my purse it comes out cap-less. It doesn't seem to be much of an issue, but it would be nice if would just stay on.

SAVED MY WEDDING PICTURES!!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My husband and I decided to be "nice" when it came time to cut the cake. He was being very careful, but some of the chocolate cake and filling fell straight down my dress leaving a trail. We still had a ton of pictures to take so I was on the verge of tears, when my new sister in law brought over a Tide to Go stick. It took the chocolate right out of my dress and 5 years later, there are still no stains or residue that has reappeared. Thanks Tide!!1

Left a large purple mark
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I had an unknown stain on the front of a white polyester jersey. It removed the stain then 10 minutes later it became a larger purple stain, which was not the color of the original stain. I tried washing it off and it only made it worse. I pretreated and washed it later and most, but not all of it, was removed. I really liked that jersey.

Works... almost
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

For the most part, the pen took out 4-5 small stains from splashed pizza sauce. But in a couple of places it left a yellow spot on my white, 63% cotton/33% nylon/4% spandex dress shirt. Soaking overnight in liquid detergent seems to have helped only a little bit, stain is still there.

Tide To Go works on Hair Dye!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Today my mom dyed her hair with a dark brown ammonia-free hair color and it got on our bathroom curtain(not the clear plastic). We did not notice til 2 hours and 30 mins later and we used tide to go and it was gone! NO stains after or any color changes on our shower curtain. Totally recommend this product. They should add on this product-- removes hair color dye-- most definitely!

Do Not Use on Whites
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

This product ruined by brand new pair of white shoes. While it succeeded in removing the coffee I spilled on the toe of these shoes, it also left an UGLY yellow tinge that just will not go away. I'm severely disappointed that there is no warning on the label of this product and hope they add it.

I'm sorry the Tide to Go pen didn’t remove the stain, and I’m sharing your comments with the rest of the team. Please keep in mind our pen works on many stains, but no product will remove all stains.

Won't leave home without it
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I keep a Tide pen in my desk at work, in my purse, in my daughter's diaper bag, and in my car. I'm clumsy and always spilling or dropping things on my clothes, and at the very least the Tide pen makes stains less noticeable. Usually it takes them out altogether-- great for coffee sloshed on work clothes!

Sad Pants
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I used to use Tide to Go all the time with no problems-loved it! But this past weekend I used the pen on a fairly large spot on brand new white pants and it stained them BRIGHT YELLOW! :( I had to walk around all day in them with neon yellow stains. Yikes. And after one wash with bleach and oxy clean, there was still some yellowing. I'm hoping after another wash or two and more bleach it will come out. I don't know what happened this time because I used it all the time. Scared to try it on any more clothes now...

A fallen product
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I was originally introduced to Tide to go a couple years ago. At the time it was an amazing product bordering on magical. I would have rated it five stars at the time. It was great at removing stains and leaving nothing behind. However, after my original stock was depleted, I needed to buy more about a month ago. It is obvious the design and formula have changed since my first purchase. The first difference I noticed was a change from the soft felt-like tip of the original to a hard plastic tip in the newer version. Where the original could make stains disappear, the new only seems to have the ability to make them worse. At this point, I would rather just deal with the stains on my clothes rather than how the new Tide to go ruins them. If you want to make me happy, please, please go back to the original design.

Cap fell off, dried out
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I wasn't able to test this out. The whole idea of this being a "To Go" item would be that you put it in your purse, right? The cap fell off inside my purse (they might want to invest in making a screw cap!) and it dried out before I was able to use it. Waste of $4 if you ask me.

Horrible Product!!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I'm so disappointed in this product. I was wearing my white jeans that cost me over 100 dollars and I got a little dirt stain on it. I decided to stop at the super market and try the Tide to go pen. I followed the directions EXACTLY, it faded the dirt spot a little and left a HUGE yellow spot that completely ruined my pants. I've tried everything to get rid of the yellow spot and nothing has worked. I'm so upset because I just got these pants and now they are totally ruined. I've always been a fan of Tide products but after this, my view has changed. Would not recommend to anyone. DO NOT USE THIS! It doesn't do what it says, especially on whites. It will leave a huge yellow spot.

Sometimes the tide to go pens work but I tried removing a simple dirt stain on brand new white jeans for a quick fix since I didn't have time to put them in the wash.

Unbelievable!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I dropped a blob of mustard on my light beige sweater at lunch yesterday while traveling. I reached for my Tide To Go, remembered I had loaned it to a friend, and went to the store right away and got another one. Just before I started to use it, I thought "No, not even Tide To Go can get this out!". Well, it took several applications and some time, just dabbing, rubbing, waiting, then repeating again and again, but eventually the stain was all gone!!! Totally unbelievable.......

Squirrel Disaster Averted
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I had purchased new cushions for my porch glider this summer, aqua and navy. I also have a small dish of bird food on the porch to feed the birds and be entertained. I noticed the squirrels on the porch when I was not out there. When I went out to sit down, I noticed a 1" brown spot on the pillow. The Squirrel must have had chili! Of course it was on the light aqua side and I wanted to cry. I decided to try the Tide To Go and held my breath. It worked!! I did one treatment, hitting the spot about 5 or 6 times with the tip, getting more of the cleaning solution on, rubbing, then blotting it a bit with a paper towel. I am DELIGHTED to tell you the spot is gone!! Thanks for a wonderful product.

Please - A Cap that Stays On!!!
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I love Tide to Go, but I won't be buying any more until it has a cap that stays on. Like others before me, I find it very frustrating to take it from my purse to use only to find that it's capless and dried up. Great product but very poor packaging - and therefore a waste of money.

Cap Gone!
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

While this product works OK, I have used stain sticks that work better, but the biggest problem with the Tide stick is that the cap never stays on. I can't count the number of times I have had to find the cap and replace it. So far the stick hasn't dried out but it is annoying and I'm sure doesn't contribute to the longevity of the stick.

Cap Problem
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

Although the product works well, there is a design defect in the cap. I have now bought my third product and each one goes dry before it is used because the cap will not stay on the product. If you put this product into your purse (even in a secure makeup bag) the cap falls off and the product goes dry. Next time I will buy the Walgreens generic version because the cap does not fall off.

Wow...Tide to Go was the best. My daughter and friend purchased fruit smoothies while waiting to watch our high school march in a pre bowl game parade. Her friend dribbled his blueberry smoothie all down the front of his gray sport shirt...what a mess. She pulled out the Tide to Go and wet the stain down...short while later when it dried the blueberry was gone! His mom was amazed since she had never used the product before...new customers.

Saved my shirt from Pomegranate explosion
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I thought my shirt was destroyed!!! Sitting at work, I foolishly decided to crack open a Pomegranate and an explosion of dark purple juice went all down the front of my shirt. I thought it was a goner for sure!!! I immediately grabbed my Tide To Go stick and began to saturate my shirt with it, then put on a cardigan and hoped for the best. About 15 minutes later, I checked and there wasn't a trace of juice on my shirt. The horrible stains disappeared and SAVED my work shirt!!!! THANK YOU Tide To GO!!!

SAVED MY LIFE!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Yesterday at work I took lunch and went to our staff break room to microwave what I brought that day--a bowl of pasta and tomato sauce. When my lunch was ready I went into a co workers office to chat. As I was finishing lunch, the entire plate of remaining tomato sauce fell in my lap. I had red sauce all over my beige pants! I was mortified and did not know what to do because I work 45 minutes from home! My co worker gave me her Tide To Go stick she keeps in her desk and I used it on every stain. In literally FIVE MINUTES, it was completely gone! It was like the spill never happened! I will never be without a Tide to Go stick again!!

01/05/2012
What a lifesaver!
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I have a really bad habit of dripping sauce or salad dressing down the front of my shirt, which drives me nuts, so I picked up a Tide To Go stick, and WOW! It's paid for itself several times over. It even got soy sauce off my white shirt with no trace left! My only complaint is that the cap NEVER stays on in my purse, I'm constantly fishing around for it. The cap really needs to snap or twist on to keep the pen from drying out in purses!

Saved!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Tide To Go just saved me from having to purchase a new vintage style Pavel Datsyuk jersey. I had apparently been a bit careless with some soda a while back. I had washed the jersey and didn't notice it before, but I was almost in full-blown panic when I saw a few brown spots on the "D" logo. So, I figured if I was going to have to buy a new one, might as well spend a few bucks to save it first. A quick dab of the pen on the stains and a gentle rub with a cloth... the stains were GONE! I LOVE this pen and will buy again!

Love this product!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I use the Tide to go pen a lot, having 4 kids. But there have been a couple times I have been especially impressed with it. A few months ago while on a visit to grandma's house, the kids decided to go berry picking with grandma. One of my girls was wearing a khaki skirt and wiped her berry-juice-covered hands down the skirt.. I was amazed as I watched the dark purple stains disappear! Also, just this past week one of my other daughters ran into something at the park and ended up needing stitches on her forehead. As we were leaving the hospital and I was putting her coat back on her I realized there was still blood (now dried) down the front of light pink coat, I thought for sure it was ruined. But then remembered the Tide To Go pen in my purse.. after the To Go pen and a run through the washer, its good as new again! I love this thing!!

Great to carry with you
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

Carrying a Tide to Go in my purse is fantastic and it works great. The only thing that I really have a problem with is the cap constantly comes off in my purse. I try to put it in a secured smaller area, but it still comes off. Can you redesign it to correct this issue? This has happened on all three that I have had in the past year or so.

Great Product - Terrible Cap!!!
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

I'm so torn by the Tide to Go stick. It is a great product and works very well. It has saved many a garment from being ruined - but the design is awful! The cap NEVER stays on and it dries out way too fast! And it is not a one time, defective product that I have. I've gone through several of them, and the cap always goes missing in my bag. It's really disappointing when you need the To Go Stick, and you find it without its cap and dried out, after using it only a handful of times. If the people at Tide could do something about the cap, I’d give this product a perfect 5 out of 5!

two dried out pens
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

The Tide to Go stain removers work beautifully when they are new, but after a short time, they dry out and are unusable. That makes them too pricey -- about $5 to remove a stain once or twice.

11/30/2011
The Tide Team
Oh no...we wouldn't expect the Tide To Go to dry out so quickly and I understand this can be disappointing. Please give us a call at (800) 879-8433 so we can help out.

White shirt saved
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

On the way to usher, wearing required white blouse, I dripped ketchup on the front while eating in the car. I used my Tide to Go when I got to the theater, and couldn't believe that the spot completely disappeared! I even took a picture before I washed the blouse for proof, but posting it isn't any option given. Thanks again for a wonderful product!

tide to go OBSESSED
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

The tide to go pen has saved my life on numerous occasions. I LOVE this product. I don't think I've ever felt the need to write a review on anything, but this? OBSESSED. I've always been a fan of Tide and they haven't let me down with this little pen of magic. I've gotten out 4 day old coffee stains, pizza sauce stains, and many more. I have no idea what's in this cute little easy to use pen, but I hope they never stop making it!

11/11/2011
YOU SAVED MY QUILT!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Panic set in when I marked the scallops on my quilt border incorrectly in lead pencil. I had spent the past 6 months piecing this quilt, and I was afraid I would have to start all over on the border! Instead, I used Tide to Go on the marks, rinsed the piece and--PRESTO-- no more marks! Truly a stitch in time! Thanks, Tide to Go.

AWESOME!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

One night, my boyfriend decided to take me to an Italian restaurant for dinner. He wore his favorite blue shirt. The red sauce that the mussels were swimming in dripped down the front of his shirt. On the way home, we stopped at a convenience store and purchased the Tide to go pen. The stains disappeared before my eyes. We then proceeded to our favorite music club; The pen saved our nite. 2 weeks ago, we decided to go away for the weekend. My boyfriend packed his favorite white linen shirt. The very bottle of Tequilla that he also packed leaked into the shirt, leaving ugly brown stains on the front and sleeves. Again, right before my eyes, The Tide to Go pen removed the stains. He put that shirt on and we went out for the evening and had a blast. I never go out with my boyfriend without my Tide To Go pen! It is a life-saver. Thank you Tide to Go!!!

My husband and I just bought our first new car together :) .....we've had it for 4 days so the "new car" feel hasn't gone away yet. On our way to work today he was eating a breakfast bar..and some of the chocolate got on the seat (fabric) and melted :( .... No worries Tide - to - go ..Cleaned it all up !! Looks brand-new still/again.... Thank You Tide :D

My Tide Pen To Go

AMAZING PRODUCT!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I am always sceptical when it comes to these kinds of products, and I am usually not the one to believe that they acutally work. Well, the Tide to Go has made me a believer! After our dog got a some dark stains on our new mattress, we decided to try the pen...what did we have to loose right? I was completely convinced that the pen would do nothing to help remove the stain, but to my suprise, it removed the stain COMPLETELY!! I was shocked. I tossed the pen in my purse to have on the go. I got to work the next day, to find a co worker frantically scrubbing at a stain on her white & yellow shirt. I pulled out the pen, and it took the stain out of her shirt immediately. I am very pleased with this product, I will definitely be buying it again, and would recommend it to anyone!!

Saved the Race
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

At my son's cross country meet, he got injured on the playground while waiting for the warm-up. His hand began bleeding all over his race jersey. As I arrived to watch him, the coach handed me the shirt and I bandaged up my son. Coach said, "That's probably not going to come out and you'll need to buy a new shirt." I had the Tide to Go stick in my purse, but had never used it. I saw it in the store a few months prior and thought, "As the mother of 3 boys this will come in handy one day!" I went to work on the race jersey and in 5 minutes I had removed the multiple blood stains on the shirt and gave my son a clean jersey just in time for his run. He ran a little faster, beating his previous time--I don't know if the Tide to Go stick had anything to do with that, but he sure looked better crossing the finish line!

Before and After baby
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I was an 8th grade Spanish teacher and 7 months pregnant wearing my favorite light pink button down shirt during the middle of 2nd period I got a huge craving to eat so I pulled out my bag an grabbed a couple of fresh blackberries to snack on and they squirted all over the front of my shirt noticeably on my baby bump.Some students started to smirk but 1 girl immediately piped up "Don't worry Mrs Fin my mom put a Tide to go in my pencil case...you can try it! I frantifrantically put it on my shirt hoping it would work before I went out of the room to do hall duty. To my surprise as well as the whole class the stain disappeared completely within minutes! Now I'm the mom of a very active 4 year old boy who is constantly getting me and himself dirty I always carry a Tide to go stick to fight stains. I may lose some battles...like eating vegetables wearing the shirt I want him to wear but at least Im winning the "War" when it comes to stains!

A College Student's Dream
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I'm always running around from early in the morning until late at night to sports practice, clubs, class, the library, meetings, parties, meals, errands, and more. I don't have the time (or the resources) to change my entire outfit every time I spill a coffee or a snack, so carrying Tide to Go in my backpack and desk drawer is a MUST for me (and my friends who always ask to use it!). I can't even say what a relief it is to quickly remove embarrassing stains when I have to be somewhere on time and looking presentable. THANK YOU Tide to Go for removing one more thing on my to-do list and keeping me on my A-game!

Yam Juice on White Pants
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I had a baked yam in a plastic container in the bag that I carry to work each day. In transit to my commuter train the top opened inside my bag. When I sat on the train to the City I felt something wet on my lap. I looked down at my white cargo pants and saw a reddish brown stain. It was Yam Juice – though it looked exactly like coffee. When I got to work my coworker loaned me her Tide to go stick. I rubbed and rubbed the stain which had already dried in route, and within minutes the stain was gone. I was amazed how well the tide stick worked. There is absolutely no evidence that I ever had a stain. However, I recommend using a paper towel or napkin between the garment and skin. This product is amazing.

08/31/2011
Smelly!
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

Don't get me wrong, these pens do a good job of removing stains. Except once the stain is gone, I find that all I can smell is the unpleasant smell of the to-go stick. I can't exactly place the smell; a combination of solvents, alcohol and plastic, none of which are very "fresh" or appealing. I can either choose to have an embarrassing coffee stain or an embarrassing smell on my shirt all day at work. I'll take the coffee stain.

08/12/2011
The Tide Team
I'm happy to hear the Tide To Go Pen is removing the stain, but not happy that it leaves an unpleasant odor behind. We expect it to leave a pleasant smell or no smell at all after use. Please give us a call at 800) 879-8433 and we'll be happy to help!

Cap won't stay on
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

SO Tide to go may actually be a great product, but I will never know since the entire container has leaked out into my purse because the cap keeps falling off. I must put the cap back on the thing 3 times a day and I have it sitting in a protected pocket, not just in the bottom of my bag. Perhaps it works well in a drawer or somewhere else, but then it doesn't really qualify as "to go" does it?

08/05/2011
The Tide Team
Oh no...this can make a mess and I’m sorry the cap is not staying on the Tide to Go. This isn’t something we’d expect to happen and we'd like to make it right for you. Please give us a call at 1-800-879-8433. Thanks!

I <3 Tide Stick

I love tide stick! It has saved so many articles of clothing from death! It has also saved many friends items of clothing! I always have one and I think it should be called miracle stick!

Love! Love! Love!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I have one in my purse, one in my desk at school, one in my cupboard at school, one in my car, one in the drawer by the phone, and probably more stashed places I don't even remember! I tell everyone I know how great this is! I have had people tell me I should be a spokesperson! My kids even request the Tide-to-go pen when they have a stain on their clothes. I have had a few problems with the cap staying on as well, but I still love the pen so much I will keep buying it. Should be an easy fix for the R&D Team, so I'll keep watching for the "new and improved" pen!!!

07/24/2011
Great Product but CAP DOESN'T STAY ON!!!!
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I love the Tide to Go pen, it's great for cleaning stains. However, the cap never stays on! I know at least 4 other people who have this problem. The pens keep drying out on me because the cap falls off in my purse. You responded to someone else's review saying you "wouldn't expect the cap to fall off" because of quality standards. But clearly, IT DOES! I won't keep buying them unless you can make the cap stay on better.

07/19/2011
I love this product
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I adore this product. I am amazed by how well it works and I have recommended it to everyone I know. The only reason I rated it 4 stars instead of 5, is because of that faulty cap. This is a great product. you should send me some complementary mini tide to go pens as compensation for the fantastic word of mouth I've been spreading about your product. lol! J/k. I really love the product! thank you. Please fix the cap problem, it's ridiculously annoying.

07/18/2011
Good product, would like design improvement
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I love this product. I tend to wear my food, as does the rest of my family, at the most inopportune times! Thankfully the Tide to Go is there to make our stains less evident. The one suggestion for improvement though is a better cap. I carry my pen in my purse and on at least 5 occasions the lid had come off and the pen was completely dry. I tried storing the pen (lid up) in the section of my purse that is reserved for pencils and pens, but it still came off.

07/17/2011
Broken Tip
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

Love Tide Products..except Tide to Go!! I have purchased this product twice. The first time the tip broke so I figured I pressed too hard. The second time I purchased Tide to Go the tip came off when I carefully tried to use on a stain. I pushed it back in and after that it just dried up!! Not a good experience and this product is expensive for doing nothing!!

Doesn't work
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I have tried this product on a few stains with very little success. I have applied it three times to a stain recieved at lunch by mayonaise. The third I hope will be a charm? Also, the cap keeps falling off in my purse. It should fit tighter of be a screw on cap.

07/14/2011

Tide, Don't Go
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I absolutely love the quality and effectiveness of tide to go pens, and I have been purchasing them since their birth; however, I have one major complaint that I have come to realize many users dislike about the product. The top is constantly coming off, which not only wastes the tide and lends to the proliferation of stains on my clothes, but also causes me to become irritated and borderline psychotic as I dig through my giant purse searching for the audaciously bright cap. PLEASE CORRECT THIS FLAW because I would be nothing without my tide to go pen. THANKS!

07/14/2011
Get's the stain out but will dry up in an hour
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I think this is a great product. It allows you to get the stain out, however the cap NEVER stays on and the pen always dries out within two days, it's frustrating and starts to become a waste of money. If they were able to fix the cap so that it would stay on when a tide to go was in someone's purse, they would get a lot more costumers and a lot more happy people.

07/13/2011
The Tide Team
Glad to hear the Tide to Go is working well removing your stains, but I'm sorry the cap doesn't stay on. This isn’t something we’d expect to happen. I’m sharing your comments with the rest of the team. If you have further questions feel free to call us at (800) 879-8433. Thanks!

worked great on blood today!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Today, while at hospital for a family member, I discovered blood caused by unconsciously brushing my nuisance-dinged bleeding finger against my shirt and pants. Stray blood at the hospital is not cool. No Tide stick at the gift shop (I asked), so instead of driving all the way home to get tide stick or change clothes I drove to nearby supermarket and picked up a new one. I had to apply a few times, but IT WORKED. It worked perfectly on my 100% cotton Liz Claiborne beige cargo pants, and cotton poly shirt. Not a trace of blood remained, honest. I was pleasantly surprised and very thankful. Cannot tell you how much it was appreciated so I could focus on more important matters. What a relief!!!

07/13/2011
Has damaged my clothes
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I have used Tide Stain Stick several times. I find that each time I think I am preventing a stain from setting in that the Tide Stick has caused more of a stain. I have ruined several new shirts. I will not be purchasing this again.

07/12/2011
The Tide Team
I'm sorry your Tide to Go pen caused a stain. Please be assured, this is very unusual. Fortunately, the stain can be removed by pre-treating the affected area overnight with Tide. After pre-treating, wash as usual and add bleach (check care tag label first). To prevent a stain from occurring, our package indicates you should dab the treated areas with a damp cloth or napkin to remove any excess Tide to Go solution left on fabric. Hope this helps!
07/14/2011
Doesn't Work
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I have tried using this particular product on several occasions, and each time, there were no results. It does not remove simple stains, clear and simple. If I try a similar product of this nature, it will not be Tide...probably Clorox.

07/10/2011
The Tide Team
Sorry the Tide to Go pen didn’t remove simple stains, and I’m sharing your comments with the rest of the team. Please keep in mind our pen works on many stains, but no product will remove all stains. It works best on fresh food stains (tomato juice, grape juice, ketchup, BBQ sauce, coffee, etc.) but does not work well on ink, blood, grease, grass, mud. For best results, press the tip down onto the stain to release the removal solution. Tide to Go won’t set any stains so if the stain still remains, pre-treat with Tide detergent and wash. Hope you'll give it another try!

SAVIOUR!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

The Tide to Go pen is my saviour, when I'm at the office I use it all the time, not only for my own stains after eg. lunch or coffee but also for my boss if he just got a stain during lunch and has to go to a meeting, it always does the trick! I recently moved to The Netherlands and am trying to get new stock there so I can keep using it!

07/06/2011
suggestions to improve
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I cannot tell when I am out of product until I am using it. Make a clear pen so amount of product is clearly visible. Print directions on clear pen so plainly visible. Does an excellent job when used as directed on stains as noted.

07/04/2011
SCREW TOP
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

CAN YOU POSSIBLY PUT A SCREW TOP ON THE TIDE TO GO? I use this product all the time and it really works for me. It takes out anything that drops or falls on my clothes, sauces, coffee, bingo dabber ink, what ever! I LOVE IT!. My problem is that the top won't stay on in my purse (any purse I use), causing it to dry out and unable to use. I have used it only once or twice and then when I need it again, it's dried out! I would suggest making the top tighter so it won't fall off so easy. Thank you.

Wedding Day
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I had just put on my Wedding dress when my daughter came in needing help with hers, well in the proccess of trying to help her, I pricked my finger and did not realize it untill I looked down and there was blood across the top of my dress and spots down the side. I instantly burst into to tears, when my aunt pulls out a tide to go pen and tells me to calm down it's going to be ok. The tide pen took the blood out of my Wedding Dress and saved my wedding. Thank you Tide!!

BUYER BEWARE!!!!!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I have to feel very strongly about something before I will take the time to write a review. I will think twice before ever using one again!!! The other day I used a Tide to Go stick on two different shirts both recently purchased, on two different stains. I pulled out the Tide stick, telling my boyfriend that it would take care of the stain. It did.... and in its place left a large yellow spot. This was the case with both shirts. I pretreated both shirts before washing them and the yellow stains remain. While it is frustrating that my shirt had only been worn a few times, what really annoys me is that I had just bought his shirt as a gift while on vacation so I can't run out and replace it. I didn't expect it to be his first and last time wearing it.

I am what I eat
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I'm not I'm not much of a person to give a review but, Tide to Go is the BEST. I love my food in fact I love it so much that I end up wearing it. I had a white t-shirt while going to a restaurant for breakfast. When I was done with the raspberry crêpe’s you might have thought I was in a war, with all the red spots, on the white shirt. I went to the washroom and took out my tide to go and well, the shirt is looking good with no spots. Tide to go is my new BFF.

06/30/2011
Did not work
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I needed something to get a pizza sauce spot on the front of my work shirt. I did not plan to puchase this item, however the store only had this. So 15 mins after I recieved the spot, I used the product of Tide To Go. This product did not work. It did not even make a dent in the removing the spot. It actually spread the spot out more. I would not recommend this.

06/29/2011
The Tide Team
We wouldn't expect the Tide To Go Pen to not work on pizza sauce. For best results, press the tip down onto the stain to release the removal solution.

A Must with kids
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I grew up with my mom using Tide so naturally when I moved out I began using Tide. I have at times tried other products because my husband would do the shopping and would not pay attention to what it was he was buying, but I always end up back at Tide. Anyways when the Tide To Go came out I bought one and had not really encountered a "NEED" to use it until the other day my 19 mounth old daughter decided to color on my white microfiber couch with BLACK crayon! I stared at the stain and contimplated what on earth I was going to use to get it out and it occurred to me to try the Tide to Go pen and let me tell you it worked like a dream! It took out every last little bit and you would never know that she ever colored there. Thank you SO much Tide!

06/29/2011
Caused more of a stain
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I spilled some coffee on my Lands' End white cotton sleeveless shirt. I immediately went to the store and purchased a Tide Stain Stick. I used it as directed and it turned the stain into a big yellow spot. Thinking it would come out in the wash, I laundered it. Now I have a white shirt with a big yellow stain. I should have left the coffee - it would have been less conspicuous!

06/23/2011
The Tide Team
I'm sorry your Tide to Go pen left a yellow stain. Please be assured, this is very unusual and we wouldn’t expect this to happen. Fortunately, the yellow color can be removed by pre-treating the affected area overnight with Tide liquid detergent. After pre-treating, wash the item as you normally would and add bleach (be sure to check the care tag label first). To prevent such a stain from occurring in the future, dab the treated areas with a damp cloth or napkin to remove any excess Tide to Go solution left on the fabric. Hope this helps!

Amazing Stuff!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I thought I would have strawberries at lunch today. That turned out to be a bad idea since I was wearing light colored dress clothes... and just my luck I ended up with strawberry juice dripped down the front of me. My co-worker took out one of your Tide to Go Instant Stain Remover pens. I dabbed it on and went back to my desk... 15 minutes later I looked down - the dark red juice stains on my white shirt and tan pants were completely gone. No ring where it used to be, no faint stain, so trace at all! Thanks to your product I didn't have to face customers with stained clothes the rest of the day (or struggle to get the stain out hours later!). You have an amazing product! THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!

Worst Tide Product Ever
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

The pen is a worthless product. I have not found any stain it would remove (koolaid, picante sauce etc.) Plus the lid is always coming off in my purse. I'm glad I had a coupon because it is a waste of money!

I'm sorry the Tide to Go pen didn’t remove the stain for you. Please keep in mind our pen works on many stains, but no product will remove all stains.

Works great, but use it quick!
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

I love the stain removing capabilities of the Tide To Go pen. I always have one in my purse and one in my son's diaper bag. It removes just about everything! I do agree with other reviews that the cap needs to screw on to ensure it stays on while being jostled around in a bag. But my main complaint about the item is that, after a while, it starts to smell foul. I have had a pen for a couple months now, and I used it this morning and it smells rotten. I used it on my son's favorite stuffed animal and now it smells rotten too! It still got the stain out but the smell is just foul! Has anyone else noticed this? I checked all my tide to go's ( I bought them all in a 3 pack) and they all smell gross now. Definitely wouldn't want to use these on the go, where I'd have to walk around with that smell on me!! GROSS!!

Wedding Lifesaver!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Dear Time To Go Pen-Makers- At my wedding this weekend, someone spilled RED WINE all down the front of my beautiful white dress, and it was only at the cocktail hour. My new husband, a huge fan of the Tide pen, whipped it out, and went to town on my dress.... after 10 minutes, many hands, and a few Tide pens, the stains all but erased! Thank you for making my wedding a success! Carrie p.s. I have pictures!!

Great Stuff
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I always keep at least one Tide To Go,, in my purse & in the house. I was reading all the reviews & see someone else had the same complaint as me,,, the Tide To Go I carry in my purse,, the cap always comes off & I guess the fluid inside, evaporates or something but its usually empty before I even got to use it because of the caps coming off. I agree with the waiter,,, you need to put screw on caps on these

Doesn't work on ink stain
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

I am wearing white pants at the office today. A pen rolled off of my desk and hit my leg on its way to the floor. I got out my trusty Tide to go pen and instantly rubbed it onto the ink spot. The stain did not come out. I was sooo disappointed. I have used this product on many stains and it has always worked. I am the mother of two sons, so white was a risk for me. I wore the pants to work thinking that the chance of getting stained would be less than at home with the boys.

I'm sorry the Tide to Go pen didn’t remove the the ink stain. The Tide Pen works on many stains, but no product will remove all stains. It works best on fresh food stains (tomato juice, grape juice, ketchup, BBQ sauce, coffee, etc.) but does not work well on ink, blood, grease, grass, mud. For more information on removing ink stains go to http://www.tide.com/en-US/stains/result/ink-ballpoint-permanent.jspx Hope this helps!

Don't waste your money
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

After all the great advertising, I decided to purchase the instant stain remover pen. I tried it for several days and my adult son also tried it. It couldn't remove ANY stain! I returned the item to the store and got my money back. Don't waste your time w/ this product.

The Tide Team
I'm sorry the Tide to Go pen didn’t remove any stains. Please keep in mind our pen works on many stains, but no product will remove all stains. It works best on fresh food stains (tomato juice, grape juice, ketchup, BBQ sauce, coffee, etc.) but does not work well on ink, blood, grease, grass, mud. For best results, press the tip down onto the stain to release the removal solution. Tide to Go won’t set any stains so if the stain still remains, pre-treat with Tide detergent and wash. If the item isn’t washable, take it to the dry cleaner. Hope you'll give it another try!

Love Tide to go!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I don't write reviews, but after I got BBQ sauce on my new white cotton blouse, I had to tell everyone about this wonderful product!! I have carried a tube in my purse for over a year, but had never used it. This day I had to. I had BBQ sauce run down the front of my blouse and I knew it was ruined. I used the entire tube on my blouse and it looks new!! I won't travel without one!! Thank you Tide!!

Wedding Dress Stress
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I was recruited to help safety pin a bit of my future DIL's wedding dress at the last minute before she went down the aisle. The bridesmaids were watching me, and the MOB was speaking with the bride to calm her down before entering the church. I pricked my finger, and myself and the bridesmaids gasped in horror as my blood smudged the dress. Tide Pen got it completely out! Thank you!

StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Recently i was in route to a job site on a long stretch of highway. my stomach was under quite a bit of sress due to gas pressures. i was slowly relieving some tension when I inadvertently lost regulation of pressure release, and a shart was produced. thankfully i found a gas station not long after the incident. i was able to clear the excess debri with some T.P. I rubbed the tide pen over the effected area and the skid mark completely vanished. i was on my way and looking good. - Thanks Tide! -

Saves the Day(and Night)
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I don't usually take the time to write a review unless something is extremely bad, (sad but true) but I must share. I went to the theatre with my daughter this weekend where I was allowed to take to my seat a glass of red wine which I managed to spill down the front of my long light silver skirt. It has thin 2" layers all the way down, so as the wine hit the edge of a layer it continually dripped to the next instead of one big spot. I was literally covered in red wine from above my knees to my ankles and wondered how I would ever even walk to the bathroom when I remembered the tide pen that I had put into my purse before my beach trip last week. I blotted what I could with my napkin then used the pen on every spot no matter how large. At intermission, I walked out without a spot to be seen on my light silver skirt. I took a picture when I took it off because I was so amazed. Thank you Tide! I will never leave the house again without you!!!

Needs a screwcap
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

My pens always run dry because the cap won't stay on!! I'm a waiter and I keep my Tide pen in my apron... throughout the course of my shift, the top will come off several times, and I feel a cap that screws-on would be much more beneficial!

06/04/2011

What a great idea to keep it in your apron! I am sorry the cap keeps coming off. We do have strict quality standards and wouldn't expect the cap to come loose on the Tide To Go Pen. We'd like to help and learn more about your experience, please give us a call at (800) 879-8433. Thanks!

my 2 boys play on different little league teams, on different evenings. with the pants both being white, and them playing 4 out of 5 evenings a week, there's always a pair of pants to get the grass stains off, and the TIDE to go works wonderfully, so easy, just dab it on and wash, the stains gone. thank you..............

Love this product...
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I keep reading about people having the cap come off...I have never had this problem in the two years I have been using this product... I am a professional who is on the road all day so I eat on the run alot. Often in a hurry. Which makes for messy eating at times. I love this product...I cannot show up at an appointment with lunch on my clothes. Tide to go makes sure I don't...

Fantastic product!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My husband could not eat meals without his Tide Stick right next to him!!! He only wears white shirts - and they continue to remain white because of the Tide Stick!!!!! This product is amazing and every time it works (which is every time!) I am totally amazed, again and again. I agree with others that whatever the solution is in that stick, should be sold by the gallon!!!! We have the Tide To Go Instant Stain Remover on the kitchen table, in the car, in his packed lunches, in our travel bag - we never leave home without it!!! Thanks Tide!!!

Saved my husband's shirts!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

It works on yellow underarm stains!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My husband has several favorite shirts that he couldn't wear anymore due to yellow deodorant stains on the underarms. I have tried everything on them from traditional stain removers to bleach to homemade remedies and nothing has worked. Finally, on a whim, I tried my Tide to Go pen. IT WORKED! I have saved several shirts of various colors and fabrics from the trash pile! I know this isn't the "typical" way to use the pen, but I'm thrilled to death. I just wish I could buy the same stuff in a larger bottle. It takes about 1 pen per shirt, which is a little pricey after awhile. However, it is still cheaper than buying new dress shirts. Use as directed for removing stain and then wash immediately afterwards.

05/25/2011
BEWARE ON WHITE
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

Although I always carry a tide to go in my purse...and yes my cap always falls off too. I used on a NEW white t-shirt while in my car took stain out but a few hours later had 2 big yellowish stains on my shirt. Called Tide and spoke to MARY in customer service. She told me I needed to use a wet cloth on it afterward before going in the sunlight. She did advise me how to get the stain out...hope it works as it is a NEW shirt. The thing that bothered me was no apology, and not even an offer to send me coupon etc. as I told her I only use tide detergent and products...Sadly they lack Customer Service Skill:(

Stained my shirt & ruined it
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I had a tiny speck of chocolate on my white cotton tank top. No problem, thought I . I have a Tide to Go stick in my purse. I applied the product and went about my day...outside, sunny, gorgeous weather. Hours later looked down to see a yellow stain about the size of a quarter where I had applied the product. I had hoped it would wash out in the laundry. Did not. Now have to purchase a new shirt. Should have left well enough alone. The chocolate fleck was many times smaller than my new Tide Induced Stain. :-(

Cap falls off
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I used to always keep a Tide to Go pen in my purse, but the cap wouldn't stay on and the pen would dry out. I love the product, but inside my purse, the cap won't stay on. I will not buy anymore until Tide figures out how to make the cap stay on better.

Saved The Day!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

3 hours into our 12 hour trip to Hawaii, my husband got a small bloody nose and sneezed all over his new favorite light yellow shirt. Not only did we assume the shirt was ruined, but it meant explaining why there was blood spatter all over his shirt to fellow passengers and flight attendants for the next 9 hours. I had low expectations for the Tide stick, but I pulled it out anyway and went to work. We were shocked, but after 15 minutes of locating and cleaning each spatter spot, everything came out and when everything dried, you could never tell anything had ever happened and the shirt was saved! We could not believe it and have been touting the Tide stick ever since!

This Saves My Day- Daily
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

For some reason I am accident prone when eating. It never fails, I end up wearing my food. Once on the way to a family reunion, I dropped ice cream down the front of my brand new Lilly dress. The only store they had way out in the middle of upstate was Walmart, so I bought a sweater to cover up my mess. I wish I had discovered back when that happened so that I didn't have to cover up my beautiful dress. What size is Tide mini? Is it airplane regulation? 'Cause I am going to want that on my trip to Paris this summer!!!!!

I got a free sample of a tide to go mini and really loved it. This stuff really worked on chocolate and coke and ketchup. I used it immediately when the stuff got on my clothes and washed them the same day and it saved my white sweater 100% stains gone when a ketchup bottle splattered little drops on it.

Great product LOUSY cap!
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

This is a great product, but the CAP is horrible. These are meant to travel with you, hence "Tide TO GO" but if you throw it in your purse or bag, the cap tends to fall off. Then with it being in a bag or purse, the tip will get depressed and the Tide To Go leaks out and you are left with an empty Tide To Go stick when you really need to use it. This would be a wonderful product and I would rate it 5 stars if it had a SCREW ON TOP.

Removed my stain, and then created another stain
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I have used this product several times on different colors of different types of fabrics, including white and dry-clean-only clothing, since it was first purchased a month ago and was happy with the stain removing results. However, I recently used this product to remove three very small stains on a brand new pair of white jeans and was extremely disappointed with the results. To be fair, the stains were removed; however the excess liquid dispersed from the pen around the original spot of the stain turned yellow almost instantly and ruined my jeans. I threw both in the trash can.

04/18/2011
The Tide Team
I'm sorry the Tide to Go pen left a yellow stain. Please be assured, this is very unusual. Fortunately, the yellow color can be removed by pre-treating the affected area overnight with Tide. After pre-treating, wash as usual and add bleach (check care tag label first). To prevent a stain from occurring, our package indicates you should dab the treated areas with a damp cloth or napkin to remove any excess Tide to Go solution left on fabric. Hope you'll give it another try.

I CAN'T BELIEVE IT WORKED
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I pulled out an old dress that my daughter wore as a flower girl in my sister-in-laws wedding. To my surprise the dress had old food stains on it - I was so embarrased thinking how could I have put this away not realizing all of the stains on it. I remembered the TIDE TO GO STAIN STICK that I had in my purse - IT TOOK ALL OF THE OLD STAINS OUT - I was so shocked!!! Thanks TIDE!

04/17/2011
Great tool!
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

I carry the stain remover pen with me in my handbag and it works great! My only problem with it is the smell. It smells horrible and it sticks to your clothes. I'm sure there is something Tide can do to enhance the fragrance of the liquid so that it's more pleasant.

Good but dries out too fast!
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

This pen works well on stains, especially if you are on the go. Even so, the cap falls off far too easily and the pen dries out too fast. I like how it works for minor spills and dribbles, but it is a disappointment when you go to use it and it is dried out and useless. Another $3 down the drain.

04/14/2011
The Tide Team
I’m sorry the cap is loose on your Tide to Go. This isn’t something we’d expect to happen. Also, the Tide to Go is designed with a special valve to protect the stain removal solution from drying out, even if the cap comes off. Be assured I'm sharing your feedback with the rest of our team. Thanks!

Cap issue

Hit/Miss, Mostly a Hit
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

When Tide to Go works, it's the greatest thing since sliced bread! It took out a Hunann Chicken Sauce out of my New silk tie with only one attempt. After reading some of the cases when it didn't work (i.e. Grape Soda) there are some factors to consider. Temperature and time seem to be HUGE factors as to its effectiveness. I have found that: 1. The sooner you can get the Tide to Go solution on the stain, the better your chances of it working. 2. If your in a cold environment (below, say 40 deg F) the chemical reaction that removes the stain seems to be less effective. I agree with a few folks that a cap with more threads would allow for a tighter seal when the "pen" is rattling around in my briefcase (stamps and business cards do NOT like Tide to Go at all). You're on to a great thing! Keep on going and, btw I'm quite impressed with your acknowledgement of the customers' feedback.

Essential onboard an Airplane!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

As an International Flight Attendant for a major American carrier, your fantastic Tide to go mini saved the day onboard to Aruba yesterday. The Purser spilled some red wine on a First Class passenger's beautiful linen shirt sleeve. I ran to my tote and got my Tide to go mini and treated the stain. His wife was upset because she thought that it was going to bleach the area. But after blotting and letting dry...his shirt was pristine! The results were remarkable and I just felt compelled to write and let you know how invaluable your product was and I am going to recommend that all my co-workers carry the Tide to go minis in their flight kits so that when onboard spills occur...they can easily be removed with your magical and fabric safe product!!!

Didn't Get the Job Done.........
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I bought my 11 year old a new $39.00 Guy Harvey shirt for her birthday. Great shirt she'd been asking for it forever,she was so happy when she got it. First day she wore it she was drinking a grape soda box and came running in the house, tear-stained face "mommy, mommy, I ruined my shirt", It was only a grape juice stain the size of a pea. I prematurely assured her that I had a (TIDE TO GO) pen that would fix it right up, I felt so bad for her when it didn't work it only made it bigger, not even after we washed it was it gone.........So, why did it not work? Please help.....Punky

Unbelievable
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

At the last minute I threw the Tide to Go pen in my suitcase before heading off to Europe 2 weeks ago. Thank goodness I did. Already on my 3rd day, while at a restaurant, I splashed a greasy, paprika-based fish soup on my new light colored cotton tee shirt. I was totally crushed. Several hours later, I used Tide to Go on the stains and it COMPLETELY removed them. I was only able to wash the shirt 10 days afterward and there is no sign of the stains. On my first shopping trip back in the States, I went out and bought a triple pack! I noticed it said, does not work well on grease, but that was not my experience. I am eternally grateful! Thank you.

Hmmm
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I spilled a small amount of coffee on my white uniform shirt and as a consequence, I took a break to travel to the local drug store and purchase a "Tide To Go" Stain Remover. Unfortunately it did not work at all and the money I spent on it was a total and complete waste. I cannot even say that it worked even a tiny amount. When I put the stain remover on the stain, much to my surprise, it appeared that it was working. Then I turned the shirt over and found that all your product was doing was pushing the soil through to the other side of the fabric. I will never again purchase this product, nor would I ever recommend it to my friends and family. Thank goodness your actual detergent works and I was able to salvage the uniform shirt when I got home.

TSA confiscated my Tide To Go
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I love my Tide To Go. I have always carried them when I travel for any stains that occur when traveling. But yesterday my 2 Tide To Gos were confiscated by TSA from my quart liquid bag at Fort Lauderdale Airport. I was wondering why these are prohibited..

tide pen
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

I am writing to let you know what i think of this product. Overall i like it. I carry one in my purse, and it has saved me more times than i can count. It does work, it will, for the most part, remove the stain. I am also a waitress, and i carry one of the pens in my apron, i have made it a part of my uniform. I recently had a customer spill something on to her shirt and when i saw this i told her i could help. I got the one from my purse and told her how to use it and the stain was removed, she thanked me profusely, and left a nice tip. So from then on i got one to carry in my apron. I have only one complaint about your product, and that is that the lid will not ever stay on. I am always finding it off in my purse and apron. Please fix this. Can't you make it to where it won't come off? On a scale from one to ten, i rate this as a 7, fix the lid and it will be a 10. sincerely Tara M

I am glad to hear you like the Tide To Go. It is nice that you are sharing it with others. It is unusual that the lid will not stay on securely in your purse. We would like to get some more details from you regarding this incident. Please call us at 1-800-879-8433 with the product handy.

did not work
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

Sangria was spilled on my wife's sweater and slacks. The application of this product did nothing to remove any of the stains. When we got home other P&G products worked fine on getting most of the stain out, but this was not very satisfactory.

02/15/2011
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

My review is very low due to never getting to use it. I bought it for a cruise and of course I did my uusual of dribbling on myself. After dinner I went back to my room and took off my top and got out my tide stick. The first push down on my top, the top of the Tide stick broke. Needless to say, I never got to use it on my top. I was very disappointed as this was a new top and I wanted to make sure it did not stain.

02/15/2011

I am sorry to hear the tip of the Tide to Go came off when you first went to use it. This is certainly not what we would expect and I have reported it to the rest of the Tide team. We would like to help you with this, please call us at 1-800-879-8433.

BBQ
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

This got the BBQ sauce out of my shoe. I put some shout advanced and oxyclean on it earlier to soak but to get it out since it was on a tennis shoe and the drop had fallen on the mesh part I used this and it worked. All the bbq sauce came out. No one will ever know.

02/07/2011
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I thought it would work on all kinds of stains. I tried it on a t-shirt and a pillow case that had a dot of dried blood stain and then put the items in wash. The stains were still there. How come? Where can I find the answers to the FAQs on this page? Please help.

02/04/2011
The Tide Team
I am sorry you were unable to remove blood stains with the Tide To Go. I’m sharing your comments with the rest of the team. Please keep in mind our pen works on many stains, but no product will remove all stains. It works best on fresh food stains (tomato juice, grape juice, ketchup, BBQ sauce, coffee, etc.) but does not work well on ink, blood, grease, grass, mud.

It is a good product
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

This product kind of works but it doesn't work fast and doesn't get rid of the entire stain. It doesn't get dried stains out only stains that are fresh. Other than that, it is a good product and I would recommended it to all my friends. :)

01/31/2011
Great Product
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I recently bought the pens for work in case I spill my lunch or tea or something. I am a messy person, and I work in an office so I wear dress clothes. I was noticing an old pen-ink stain on a white dress shirt, so I decided to try it out (Dont tell my boss). The shirt needed a little scrubbing and it actually got it out! I was surprised that it got out an old ink stain, from a shirt thats been washed. Today I spilled Green Pesto oil on my white suit pants. Again, it took a little scrubbing, but after five minutes, the pants dried and no more green on white! I would certainly recommend this product! Thanks Tide!!!

Worked on grease for me!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I carried a bike up a flight of stairs, and (unknown to me) rubbed the bike chain up against my most expensive jeans, which were a gift. I had a mild panic attack, because I know grease is very difficult to remove from clothing. I figured the Tide pen was worth a shot, so I tried it and it took the small grease stains right out of my jeans! I was so excited and relieved. Thanks, Tide! I always use the Tide pen on all of my stains since then.

01/12/2011
my first experience
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I covered an old chair with a piece of scrap brocade material that was left over from a curtain project. It was white on white. I gave this chair to my daughter, because she love this material. She called me 3 days later apologizing because her son dripped grape jelly on it, and she wiped it into the fabric and ruin the chair. The next time I went to see her, I saw the chair and it looked just like it did the day I gave it to her, she said she used her Tide to go Instant Stain remover and it took it right up.My grandson was out of the dog house and I went out and got me one !

Wedding Dress Savior
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I didn't believe in the power of the Tide to Go pen until I was at a friend's wedding reception. She slopped spaghetti sauce all over her pretty white dress and had a massive red stain on the front of it. Her new husband ran to the convenience store across the street and bought a Tide to Go pen. The pen actually took the red sauce out of the white dress...you couldn't even tell it had been there. I now swear by the power of the Tide to Go pen and carry one with me everywhere and share it and it's amazing wedding dress story with anyone who has a stain.

Great Product
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This is such a great product that I not only have one in the laundry room but, one in my purse, desk drawer at work and even the glove compartment of my car. It really does what it is advertised to do. I wouldn't be caught without it.

Love this product!!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I am a busy mother of two teenage daughters & a very messy 3 yr old boy. I take my Tide To Go pen with me everywhere. There have been many times my Tide To Go pen has saved me from embarrassing stains. I had a very important interview for college & my son decided to wipe his chocolate covered hands on me, I whipped out my pen & used it immediately. Thankfully it took the stain out & saved me from hanging my head in shame. Thanks Tide, keep up the great work!!!!

ALMOST always works...
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I think this product is really nice and helpful about 80% of the time. I always keep this in my purse for whenever I get a new stain. I use this product a lot, and I feel I see a cleaner difference when the stain comes out. Once I had an article of clothing that said on the tag, stains will not come out of this material. I used Tide-To-Go anyway, just in case, and sure enough, it took the stain COMPLETELY out! Other times, it doesn't work, but it ALMSOT ALWAYS does. Thanks!

Only 1 problem!
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

Love this product!! Hate the LID!!! As I have scanned through other reviews, I've noticed that I am not the only person that has experienced the "loose cap" problem that I have. The Tide to Go pen has only one problem - it needs a screw-on cap! Have purchased several, now keep each in a zip-top bag in my purse to prevent them from drying out due to the cap coming off in my purse!! Please! Screw that cap on!!!!!

Wonder ~ Stick
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I purchased this new Tide Stick some time back and it is the best thing I have spent my money on. I have my family memebers and co-workers using it. Last Summer my dog got a hold of a ink pen and busted it. Needless to say it went all over the house and on the Carpet...... I had Paw tracks all over... I was in hesterics.... Brand new carpet at that. I had tried all kinds of carpet cleaners nothing would remove the ink. Well I thought about my Tide Stick and guess what??? It worked. All of the Ink came out the carpet- of course I had to go and purchase a few more to complete the job. The ink was even on the new Kitchen floors - Vinly Floors- It even came up off of that. So I must say this item is a keeper. Loyal Tide Fan for Many years, Melissa New Orleans, La.

I love this product

I keep the tide to go Instant Stain Remover in my pocketbook and one in my desk at work. It comes in handy. However, I find that often the cap on the to go comes loss and falls off in my pocketbook and then drys out. If the cap was a screw cap, I would find this the perfect product. I love using it on stains immediately and I have never had a problem with removing stains when I launder my clothes after using the instant stain remover. I only wish that the lid screwed on to keep it secure.

white jacket on New Year's Eve
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Went out with friends for New Year's Eve dinner, wearing a brand new ivory blazer made of polyester & rayon. The tag said "dry clean only". I proceeded to spill my dark chocolate mocha latte all over myself and had gigantic blotches the size of continents. No dry cleaners will be open for two more days. What to do??? Ran to the store for a package of Tide To Go pens, and had those stains broken up fast. When I got home I used a laundry pre-treatment and then washed the jacket, even though it was dry clean only. What could it hurt, with stains like that? ALL of the stain came out!!! Thank you so much!!!

Tide to Go
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

Use the stick on an ink stain on a white cotton blend turtle neck. I was disappointed to find that using the stain stick on the ink not only made the ink bleed and the stain got worse as it got bigger, after gently rubbing the stain as the directions stated the stain grew even larger and much to my disappointment -the ink was not removed and what was a very small hardly noticeable stain is now big enough that the shirt is ruined. I use Tide Laundry soap and really like the produce and thought the stain stick would be just a good of product however I am very disappointed and will not continue to use the product nor will I recommend it to anyone- on the contrary I will presuade friends to be leery of using it.

Saved the day

I was at a wedding reception and was wearing a white sweater. Needless to say, I ended up splashing red wine all over the front of me! I went to the ladies room, saturated the ares with my Tide stain stick and within 3 minutes they were almost completely faded! It saved my night!! Thanks Tide for making wonderful products!

12/29/2010
it WORKED!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I was reading those scary reviews talking about how there was an added yellow stain to the original stain which made me very weary about using this product I decided to give it a shot anyways and it worked PERFECTLY I have a white button up shirt with gray vertical striped lines on it and I had spilled some meat sauce on it I applied a little pressure and got the pen to release some of the bleachon it and after it tried which was in about a minute i couldnt tell where the stain originally was AWESOME!

12/02/2010
A great product!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

The stain remover has saved me many times and I love it! I have had it a couple of times where I got a yellow spot on a white item but it washed out. I haven't ever had a problem with the tip or odor. One goes everywhere with me!

Amazing
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My sister got wine cooler all over a bright green top. We used the Tide to Go and believe it or not every stain came out. This Thanksgiving my 4 year old nephew got cranberries on his good sweater. Well we put the Tide to Go on it and it came out as good as new. I take this product in my suitcase whenever I go on a trip. Don't leave home without it!!!!

Don't Bother Buying This Product
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

Like many others have said before, the smell is horrible, the point breaks off if you look at it funny (never mind trying to use it!), and when you do actually get to use it, it doesn't remove the stain and adds a stain of its own. If Tide doesn't take it off the market, then Shame on Them!!

Fragile tip makes product useless
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

Took the cap off a new Tide pen tonight, and the tip came off, too. With no way to apply the product, the pen is now useless. A friend had the tip on her pen break while she was using it. I've used the product before, and it did a reasonable job on some stains, but whatever they make the applicator from is too fragile to stand up to normal use. I'll be looking for an alternative.

Again ... yellow stain
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

My favorite shirt is ruined. It is white. I got an ink mark on it last Saturday as I was heading out the door. I grabbed my Tide To Go pen and the ink was gone. But ... after getting to town ... I looked down to see a big yellow circle on the front of my shirt. When I got home ... it went to the washer. Guess what ... it's still yellow. Even after treating it for stains. My pen went to the trash. No more Tide To Go for me ... it is GONE.

10/28/2010
Love it
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I keep a Tide to go in my desk at work, just used it to get rid of coffee dribbles on my pink shirt. I love it. I've not had the problem of the cover not staying on. If I did, I would probably wrap a little teflon tape around the pen portion to give the cap a tighter fit.

10/27/2010
More about the cap
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I agree with the problem with the cap coming off in my purse. The Tide to Go pen works beautifully but the cap keeps coming off and the pen dries up. I've wasted several because of this. Use a screw-on cap and I'll buy the product again.

Another review of a yellow stain on white clothes
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I have a white shirt of sweatshirt material (it's got a nice collar, not a cheap plain one) that I wear to work. I accidentally spilled a bit of Coke on it, I grabbed my stain stick and made quick work of the stain. About 10 minutes later a co-worker asked what happened to my shirt, there was a big yellow stain on the front of it. I tried to go over the stain thinking that maybe I smeared the soda, it was the first time I used the Tide stain remover, but the stain got worse. My shirt is ruined, no amount of soaking it, bleaching it, etc. will take that stain out. I threw the stain remover pen away! FYI: The lid stayed on my stain pen. I'd have been better off if the lid had fallen off and it had dried out. Working with the small soda stain on my shirt would have been better than the large yellow stain from the stain remover pen.

10/22/2010
Sorry cap
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I absolutely love the "Tide To Go" pen and make sure I always have it in my purse. However, the cap will not stay on no matter how many of the pens I buy. I think it would be a good idea to have a screw on cap. Otherwise, there is a large risk of the pen drying out before its time.

10/20/2010
Great when you have kids
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I agree about the cap coming off. I keep a Tide to go Mini in my purse. With 2 little ones they are always making messes of themselves and me too! I have not tried it on whites yet, we just don't seem to wear a lot of white (um...2 small messy children and whites=not a great combo). However it does seem to work great on the clothes we have used it on. It has removed some dripped pizza sauce, some chocolate, and some juice. Very handy!

Cap Issues Detract from GREATNESS of product
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

I absolutely love my Tide To Go BUT am sick and tired of it drying out due to an insecure cap. I too carry my stick in my purse and it never seems to fail... the cap falls out and is dried up when I need it the most. As others had recommended, fix the cap and you will make Tide consumers (and future fans) very happy.

Cap comes off...
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I love this product; but if you carry it in your purse or bag, the cap seems to come off. I think a new screw-on-cap should be put on it instead of one that just pulls off.

Big Yellow Stain
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I spilled a few spots of coffee on my white business shirt and applied "Tide to go". Unfortunately, the spot became yellow. After carefully soaking my shirt over-night, washing and hang to dry, the shirt still has a yellow spot. This was the first and last time I will ever use this product. This was recommended by a friend who unfortunately must be color-blind. Sincerely, RA

As if it never happened.
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My 4 year old daughter was coloring on my bed, and noticed she was using markers (Not the WASHABLE kind), and what do you know a HUGE orange stain on my comforter. OMG!!!!!! I yelled out, my comforter is ruined. After about 5 min of my temper tantrum, I remembered about my Tide to Go remover. I thought no way this will ever work. But sure enough right before my eyes the stain was going away. "WOW" I was impressed. After about 1 week later I washed my comforter and the stain was absolutely gone. It was as if it never happened, and it works better than any stain remover I've used by far. Thanks for this wonderful product.

Takes out blood!!!
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I used this product when I needed to take blood out of my blue jeans FAST! It actually worked! I just dapped the pen on the stain for awhile and held a paper towel on the otherside of the jeans. The blood came out onto the papertowel and my jeans looked pretty good! You could still see the blood but barely, so it worked perfectly till I got home! :D

YELLOW STAIN
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I used the Tide to Go on a "little spot" on a new Columbia WHITE sweatshirt...boy what a mistake! I now have a yellow spot that looks worse than if I had left the "little spot". Any suggestions on how to get the yellow out? I washed the sweatshirt within about 5 hours of using the Tide To Go. BIG MISTAKE, will NEVER use the product again.

09/27/2010
Who says it does not work on whites?
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My white golf shirt (all synthetic--sweat wicking ) had a Coke stain on the front that did not come out despite several washings and treatments with various products. Tide to Go took it out without a problem. Great product. I'll be carrying it with me on trips too.

09/27/2010
DO NOT USE ON WHITES!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I haven't used this product a whole lot but I know that I am not going to be carrying one with me anymore. I had a small dirt mark on a brand new white shirt that I treated today. Yes, it took out the dirt mark but within about 15 minutes there was a disgusting yellow circle on the front of my shirt....it looked worse than the little dirt mark that I had just treated. I was able to get the shirt in the washer within 2 hours and I could not get the new yellow stain out for anything....so thank you TIDE for ruining a brand new shirt!! And now by reading other reviews this seems to be a common problem. Wow...how unfortunate....that is some product failure!

removes coler in some clothes
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

While this product does remove a variety of stains we've found that it also removes the dyes in a lot of our clothes. Not a great thing on brand new clothes but maybe ok on older stuff.

Does NOT work on whites.
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

My new white jeans got a little coffee on them when I was in Target so I bought a Tide pen. I followed the directions and used the pen on my pants when I got back into the car. In the five minutes it took to get home, the areas I treated with the pen had turned yellow. Thanks Tide, I thought you were known for treating whites? Did you not test the pen on white clothing and watch what happened when it dried because I don't seem to be the only person that has been affected by yellow stains on their white clothing. I haven't tested the pen on colored clothes.

Tide To Go Is An Amazing Product!!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

When getting ready for work this morning, I grabbed a blouse I hadn't worn for at least 2 months. I had washed it right after wearing it back then and put it away. When I arrived at work, I noticed that the ink stain I thought had come out in the wash, was still there, so I decided to just try my Tide To Go pen. Imagine my delight and amazement when the stain came completely out within 5 seconds!!! You can't even see where it was!!! Ever since the first time I tried this product when it first came out, I have always made sure to have it with me at all times and I'm constantly recommending it to family, friends, co-workers and anyone else who will listen. I can't even remember the number of times I've been in situations where someone gets something on their clothes and I'm able to just whip out the Tide To Go pen and have their clothing cleaned up and looking great in practically no time!!! Would I recommend this product? Only every time I use it!!! It's just too bad I can't give it more than 5 stars.

09/18/2010
It was like magic
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I've never written to thank a manufacturer for a product but I was really in a hole and Tide to Go was amazing. I was on a bus going to NYC where I had a series of meetings. While on the bus I put my lunch bag on my lap. It was made of a porous material and I had included a rinsed pint of raspberries. I thought they had drained completely but boy was I wrong! When I took the bag off my lap, the thighs of my light khaki pants were completely covered with pink berry juice. I didn't have time to buy a new pair of pants and I didn't have a spare pair with me. I had a Tide to Go and figured I'd use it to pre-treat the stain in case it would help it come out later in the wash. I was resigned to walking through the rest of the day with an enormous pink stain covering the front of my pants. I painted the whole stain with the Tide to Go and couldn't believe my eyes. First, the stain spread a little and the area was wet. But when the cloth dried, the stain was 100% gone! I never expected that. thank you so much!

Problem with packaging
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I've bought the product many times. It's good. This time the product packaging was defective. The cap won't stay on and the white part around the nib is chipped. The outer packaging seemed OK. For the price, I do expect perfection.

WONDERFUL PRODUCT
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I had use Tide to Go immediately for small stains that I have gotten. It worked well and I got my father and mom to try it. While cleaning out my closet I came across blouses and pants that were old and had stains. I began to sort the clothing and had all the stained items in a pile to throw away because these stains were YEARS old. Suddenly my elevator went to the top and I thought why not try the tide to go. My brain was saying no way, it won't work. Some of these stains were 10 years old. WELL LET ME TELL YOU! I decided to try it anyway. EVERY SINGLE STAIN DISAPPEARED. I mean really, they went away. I am utterly amazed. Tide to Go will be my "BFF". Best Friend Forever. Way to go Tide.

Saved my stupidity!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

While I was subletting from a girl, I stupidly ate chocolate in her all-white bed... and of course spilled. Now, two weeks later and the day she's coming home, I freaked out and used the Tide To Go stick my mom packed for me-- and it worked perfectly! No sign of me eating in her bed, no stains, nothing. Miracle. Thank you!

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! Getting a cup of coffee at our office can be quite adventurous with our per cup coffee machine; it likes to spit and the end of its drip process. Get to close you pay the price. Thank you tide to go!

even on shoes!!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I have brand new white converse all stars that I somehow got yellow stains on. I was looking around my house when I found a tide to go pen my mom had purchased. It worked like a charm! all the stains are gone and the shoes look like new! LOVED IT!

Tide of the Round Table
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

Earlier this summer, my family and I met for Sunday brunch at a local lake-side restaurant. We had just received our food and not 5 minutes into it, my dad dripped ketchup on his pristine white, pressed cotton shirt. As everyone just shook their heads at him as he started to smear it in attempts to wipe it up, I yelled across the table "Stop! I have something just for that!" I reached into my purse and pulled out my Tide to go pen. My dad was skeptical but started using it mostly to appease me. Initially, the stain didn't seem to do much and I could see my dad thinking it was just a stupid product. After a few minutes, we all got engrossed in conversation until about 20 minutes later, my dad exclaimed "Wow, I just looked at my shirt and the stain is gone! I can't even see it!" Score 1 for the daughter. Nearly 2 weeks after the event, my mother called to chat and mentioned that she was so impressed with the Tide to go pen that she went out and bought some herself. Hooray Tide!

09/04/2010
I've even given these as gifts!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I love the Tide to Go "pen" so much that I carry one in my purse...and have loaned or given them to friends many times when a "stain attack" happens. I kept one in my desk at work, one in the car and one at my dressing table and in the laundry room. A friend of mine who is a nurse was the first recipient of one of my "gift" Tide "pens" and she has now given away a bunch to other nurses. Once in a while it won't take out a stain, but normally it does a great job. Great product!!!

Saved My Job!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I was shooting a local commercial and on our break I did something I was not supposed to do...eat in costume. Sure enough, I dropped some food (chocolate!)on me right before I was to shoot another scene. If I had to change clothes we would have had to reshoot the other scenes. I pulled my Tide Stain Stick out of my makeup kit (vital accessory) and got rid of the stain, before the costumer could yell at me too much. She said she used Stain Stick all the time as well!!! Thanks!!!

Love Tide to Go
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My dog had surgery on his mouth , and drooled blood on my white comfotter , I used the Tide to go on it and the blood came out. It was like new again. I am very impressed with this product and will tell all my friends how well it worked. This is a MUST HAVE product!!! Thank you Tide!

Tide saves the day
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I bought a Tide To Go pen and put it in my diaper bag, figuring with a little one, it would come in handy. I took my daughter to the zoo and while she splashed in the fountain, my husband and I sat on a bench under a tree. Wouldn't you know a bird in the tree pooped on my shoulder! I was mortified. I pulled out my Tide To Go pen and rubbed. It actually saved my shirt and my pride. Amazing!

Will never buy again
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I went for Chinese, and as usual tried to wear some home. Unfortunate for me I had a White blouse on. I had just bout a Tide to go pen and tried it on a stain that I had just gotten. It looked pretty good at first until later in the day I looked in the washroom mirror and there was this big yellow stain on my white blouse. How embarrassing. I have tried every product I could think of and cannot get the yellow stain out. Not even bleach worked! Had to buy a new blouse. I hace since tried to even dye the blouse and the yellow stain still shows thru. Will never buy this product again.

08/23/2010
not once but twice
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

Having a tendancy to spill things on myself, I purchased the Tide to Go pen in hopes of always having a solution to my problem close at hand,The first time I used the product, I was overcome by an offensive odor when I first opened the pen. As I continued to use the pen, the tip broke off and I never finished working on the spot. I decided to give it another try - and the exact thing happened again. I was being careful to not push too hard but the tip broke off as well as there being an offensive odor. I will not purchase another and I am disappointed in this product.

08/22/2010
AWFUL!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I was on my way to work one morning when I spilled some crumbs from a protein bar on my white top. When I tried to brush them off they left several spots. I drove directly to CVS to buy a Tide to go pen. I used it immediately in the parking lot only to discover that my top had turned yellow on the treated areas. Now it looked like I had spilled coffee on myself! I attempted to treat the areas with Oxy Clean later that day, hoping for a miracle, however the damage had been done. So my favorite white top went straight into the trash. If you cant use a bleach pen on white, then where can you use it?!

08/21/2010
Useless
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I bought this to take on vacation in place of a pre-treatment product. When the time came to use it, it was about as useful as a dry popsicle stick. Maybe this particular one was dried up and not any good, but I'm not going to spend any more money on another one to find out. This company has been around long enough that it ought to be able to package its products in such a way that they get to the consumer intact.

08/18/2010
Did not work
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I purchased Tide to go while on vacation. I got ketcup on my white shorts and this product DID NOT work I continued for at least 20 minutes adding more and scrubbing and the stain only got lighter but did not go away. So all it really did was make my shorts too wet to wear. What a waste of money.

08/16/2010
Oh No, My Sofa!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Someone spilled wild blueberry juice on my tan, soft fabric sofa. I was pretty sure it was history but tried the Tide Stain Stick from my purse. Unbelievable. 24 hours later, you can't tell it ever happened. Thanks a million, Tide. You saved my sofa!

08/14/2010
This Product Delivers Results!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This product is amazing! I spilled coffee down the leg of my light khaki pants and this product removed all traces of it. I felt it was important to let consumers know this product does what it says it's going to do.

A non-believer is now a user!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Out to lunch with girlfriends. One gal spilled something on her pants; it was a greasy drop from her fried coconut shrimp so she thought, no way I will just need to go home and change before next appt. I said "Oh no, let's try my mini stain remover!" (one of which I always carry in my car) Used on the spot, she was skeptical as it was still damp as she left me. Later emailed me..."It worked" and wondered where she could get her Tide to go stain removers!

08/10/2010
not a great buy
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I have heard that the tide to go pen works really well, I have tried it on several occasions and it has never worked for me thanks

08/08/2010
PERFECT!!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This product works PERFECTLY! I have had my Tide Pen in my purse for several months. I wore white pants to work today. I couldn't get out of the office for lunch so I ordered in. I am an Executive Assistant for 5 radio stations and have to greet and meet with clients all day. I dropped a spot of oil and vinegar dressing with a little roasted red pepper juice in for good measure (it really was an accident) on my white pants! I grabbed my Tide Pen as fast as I could and guess what! It took every speck of the stain right out! Considering the top had come off of my Tide Pen I wasn't sure if it was even still any good...but it was and is! Thank you, Tide!!!

Pants Saver
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My husband and I had a lovely breakfast at an outdoor cafe. I did not realize it, but I had sat down on berries, which stained my tan pants purple. I grabbed my tide to go and attacked the stain. When I looked at the pants later that day, the stain was gone.

BLUEBERRY OATMEAL
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

It's summertime and that's the best time to wear my favorite white pants. Apparently it is also the best time for my co-workers to eat blueberry oatmeal and spill it on my favorite white pants. I was mortified. Luckily the company keeps a Tide To-Go pen in the supply closet. I didn't think it would work. I was skeptical. I thought maybe it will fade, maybe I'll bleach them later, maybe I'll cry myself to sleep tonight over the loss of my favorite white pants. But after a good rubbin' of the old Tide pen, I found myself looking clean and fresh. I was shocked. My coworkers were shocked. And the white pants were beautiful. I cried that night. I cried tears of joy.

08/03/2010
Great product
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This is the best stain remover I've used since Carbona quit making their stain remover bar. It took care of 5-day-old dark cherry, chocolate, and coffee stains without any visible effect on the fabric itself. Was beginning to think that all of the great products no longer existed, or had been so "improved" that they were useless.

my dining room chair!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

It's one thing when your elderly father leaves an apple pie bite on your dining room chair, or a brother plants a blob of Thanksgiving stuffing, but when you stain your own white brocade with a clumsy fumble of tomatoe sauce it really gets you angry. What to do? I tried Tide to Go pen and it actually worked. I was so pleased I went around to all the old stains and they improved, as well. I even have great before and after photos, Tide! Tide to Go is an exceptional product and should be a first consideration for upholstery accidents.

The Wedding Dress Was Saved
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I was attending a wedding reception when the bride cut herself pretty good on a pin from her bouquet when she tossed it. She had blood all over the front of her gorgeous white satin wedding dress in 3 places. I ran to offer my tide pen and caught her just in time before she used a towel and water to try to remove it. Water would have not only likely spread the blood, but left a water mark that would have ruined the dress even more. After using a dry towel to emove the surface blood I used the tide pen to blot the blood and like majic all of it came off an dissapeared. Tide pens have saved me many times but this was really amazing. The dress was saved and you could never tell it ever happened.

07/29/2010
If you want yellow spots....
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I had on a new white t-shirt that had been through the wash once. I got a speck of dirt on it early in the day so I bought a Tide stick. The spot looked like it came out just fine, but once it was dry I was left with a large yellow spot where the Tide stick had moistened the shirt. Since that day I have spoken with multiple people who said to never use it on whites. That was a $25 mistake that I won't make again....Tide stick in the garbage, back to Spray n' Wash towelettes.

Saved my daughter's dress
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

While my 3 year old daughter enthusiastically ate spaghetti (with lots of RED sauce) at a restaurant, she dropped about half of the pieces onto a beautiful dress that was a gift from family friends. We were on vacation, but I stopped into a CVS next to our hotel, and used this product on each stain on the dress. Miraculously, the dress looks as good as new! Luckily I bought two of them, and will carry one in my purse from now on.

07/28/2010
Great when it works
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I have bought maybe 20 of these pens. I have used on furniture more than anything else. It worked pretty well. However, I have at least 2 pens with the tips broken off, before even using. Also have some totally dry & not usable. They do dry out too quickly because the cap does not fit tightly, but I keep in a zip lock bag. I have never used on colored items, only on white or almost white. It is too expensive just to keep handy, as dry out or are already dried out when you open.

07/24/2010
Embarrassment Saver
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I love the contents of this pen! It has saved me and others from spots on the clothes after eating and drinking. After experiencing the relief from spillage myself, I promptly, at a wedding reception, gave it to a gal wearing a white blouse, after the can of GRAPE soda she opened squirted everywhere. Amazing! The only pitfall - the cap does not stay secured and I have wasted 2-3 pens already due to the cap not staying on. Fix the cap, and you truly have a 100% truly miraculous product!

The truth, the whole truth, nothing but...
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I always try to communicate by following two personal axioms: tell the truth (unless it may be harmful or hurtful unnecessarily) and do so as simply as possoble so as not to waste everyone's time. That said, this I know...In this day of megahype and absence of truth in advertising, I find a product--Tide To Go--that is actually under-hyped, under-praised and (perhaps) greatly underappreciated respecting its REAL performance in terms of doing what it is touted to do! I"m sure you've heard some variation of this story before, but this ACTUALLY happened to me: I spilled coffee on the front of my shirt just before a business meeting. After I freaked out, I hurredly deviated to Wal-Mart while on my way, and purchased your product. I followed the instructions. I then waited. I was astounded! Tide To Go exceeded my wildest expectations--and just in time for my meeting. I now have Tide To Go at home, in my car, in my desk, in my briefcase... THE TRUTH: Tell the world about Tide To Got; finally a product that exceeds any and all hype, a product that actually delivers as advertised, and well beyond.

Another Miracle
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I was at a store the day before 4th of July and had just started using my new purse which was a very expensive and a gift from my son. Someone had left a melted cherry ice on one of the end caps and it fell on me when I came around the corner. It went all over me and my brand new purse which was white canvas with yellow flowers! I tried immediately to get the stain out with wet-ones and kleenex. I thought this is never coming out! When I got home, I tried carpet spot cleaner, laundry spray stain remover and plain soap and water. I even put it in the sun, hoping the sun would lighten the stains. The large splatters of cherry were still there. Then I remembered my Tide to Go stick. I applied it to all the stains, and within a few minutes they were entirely, totally gone! I am so grateful. I never could have afforded to replace the purse! Thank you Tide to Go!

Blood Stains Removed
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I didn't get a chance to finish my review. We were camping in our RV and didn't have access to a washer and dryer. My husband had a bloody nose and the blood got on my new 400 count sateen sheets. The next day I sent him to the store and asked him to buy something like Tide To Go but to make sure it works on blood stains, and he came back with Tide To Go but it said on the label "Does not work well on blood". I used it anyway just in case it would help a little. It didn't work immediately but I treated the spot several times over the period of about an hour and the stain was removed and there was no damage to the sheets. I am very happy with the results. Thank you.

Gone in a Flash
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Last Sunday was Communion Sunday at my church. The tray of cups of grape juice was passed to me by my husband. After I took a cup, my husband took his and moved his arm, hitting me and causing the juice to spill on my light beige slacks. I cringed and wondered how will I ever get these stains out. My husband tried to console me by telling me how good I am with the laundry and that I would find a way to remove the stains. Before the church service ended, I remembered that I had a Tide to Go stick in my purse. I had never used it myself but had loaned it to many friends who had spilled food on their clothing. I immediately took the stick and pressed its contents on the many spots of juice. About 10 minutes later, while at our coffee hour, a friend said how sorry he was that juice was spilled on me. As I looked down at my slacks to show him the spots, I witnessed the "miracle" of Tide to Go. Thank you for making such a reliable product.

07/07/2010
unreal- cherry juice gone!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I wasn't at work for 30 miunutes before I bit into a juicy cherry and got it all over my white tshirt. I knew I had this stain remover somewhere- finally found it after the dark purple drops dried. After rubbing this all over the drops- they were GONE within 30 minutes. I was shocked- since I thought this was a pre-treater. I have now seen where it clearly states on the tube that this is NOT A PRE-TREATER. I am going to buy more of this asap! Thanks a bunch!!!

Tide to Go saved my Granddaughter's wedding day!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Before the wedding ceremony, the bridal party was having pictures taken in the gardens outside of the church. A small black bug landed on my Granddaughter's beautiful white wedding gown in a very visable place. When an attemp was made to chase the bug away, it left a half inch black circle on the lovely gown. Someone had a Tide to Go stain remover in their purse and it was quickly used on the bug spot and just like that the spot was gone! Tide to go saved the day!

07/06/2010
Awesome!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

While on vacation at the shore a couple years ago we ate dinner at a local seafood resturant. As my husband attempted to get the cocktail sauce out of the bottle it exploded all over my brand new white blouse. The waitress felt so bad she gave me her personal "Tide to Go" and amazingly it removed ALL of the multiple stains. I was hooked! I have carried one in my purse ever since!

07/04/2010
I'd give it 5 stars if the cap would stay on!
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I really like Tide To Go. I work in I.T., and like most I.T. geeks, I'm always spilling food on my clothes. It's a great size. I can carry it around in my purse, and it's *almost* perfect. If only the cap would stay on.... Every time I go to look for my Tide pen, the cap is off of it. They should make it a twist top.

06/30/2010
New Use
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I would like to tell you about the new use I found for your Tide to go. I was reading my Bible while having breakfast one morning. I was eating black cherries and when I spit the pit out, it miscued and bounced across the pages of my Bible, leaving purple stains. Feeling badly because of what I had done, I suddenly thought about the Tide to go I keep for the laundry. When I used it on the thin pages it took all the stains out. I put a napkin between the pages, closed the book and left it to dry. When I looked at it later, there was hardly even any wrinkling of the paper. Thanks to the Tide to go, I now have a stain free Bible as well as stain free clothes!

Wedding Day Disaster Averted!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I got married in August of 2009. The day of my wedding it rained all morning and then cleared up around 1pm. While getting pictures taken at Fort Hunter, I slipped and fell right in the mud. My dress and shoes instantly had mud/grass stains on them. The second I got back to the church, I threw off my dress and shoes and had my mother-in-law and bridesmaids attempt to clean them. I had bought 4 Tide Sticks the night before so I grabbed them and gave them to the girls. Let me tell you...by the time they were done, the dress and shoes looked exactly like it did before I fell. As I walked down the aisle you NEVER would have known I had fallen in the mud an hour earlier. Thank you Tide for being there since I was a baby and being there on my wedding day. This stuff really does work!!!

06/24/2010
THE BEST PRODUCT EVER!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I cannot say enough positove words about this product. In one month this "Tide to Go Stain Remover" saved me on many occassions. The morning of my daughter's communion she got a grass stain on her dress- the stain came out with this wonderful product and her white dress looked beautiful. At work I someone dropped some of my chocolate bar on my white shirt-the stain came out yet again with this wonderful product. I cut myself on my finger at work and got blood on my pants-the stain came out yet again with this wonderful product. Finally this morning I somehow sat on blue gum while wearing white pants (not sure how i did this)-remarkably the stain came out!!! Kudos to the makers of this item at Tide!!!!

06/24/2010
Left a new stain behind!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I had a small stain on my white cotton shirt and had never used the tide pen before. My co-worker offered it to me and it did get the dirt out, but in it's place was a left a big yellow stain. I assumed it would come out in the wash and I even pre-treated it with another product to ensure it would come out. Sadly, I took it out of the washer and the yellow stain was still there. I would have thought white would have been the safest color to use with the pen. Yesterday my neighbor had on a white shirt and used her pen before I could warn her and the same thing happened! I will not use the pen again! I'd rather walk around with a stain on my shirt than ruin a shirt!

06/21/2010
Used to work better when it had a felt tip
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

When these first came out, the tip was felt and they worked pretty well. However, not long into the production cycle, they changed the tip to a hard plastic and ever since then, I don't feel they work as well. They barely get the stain out and what I'm left with now is a two-tiered stain; the area I hit with the To Go pen and the original stain itself. Until they switch back to the felt tip or improve the product, I'm done buying these.

06/20/2010
WHAT A JOKE
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

WHAT A JOKE, wish i never used it. had a brand new white dress that i got mascara on and i bought the tide pen on my way out. used it and now there is a HUGE yellow stain on my brand new white dress. washed my dress and the stain is very visible. so disgusted with this product...WHAT A JOKE

06/15/2010
Ketchup, White Shirts and Tide to Go a no no
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

Twice now when using Tide To Go on a ketchup stain on white material has ended up causing a bigger yellow stain on the material. The yellow stain will NOT come out not even with a bleach stick. Think twice before using the Tide To Go....which is worse the ketchup stain or a yellow spot. I wish I would have left my brand new shirt alone and kept the ketchup stain.

06/14/2010
It's Fantastic
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I go everywhere with it. I bought it for my mother and now she carries it. I have it at work. It works great and has saved me from embarrassing stains on many occasions. Even a little drop is no good. I love this product.

Red Belt vs Red stain
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I was on my way to tae kwon do with my family and I had just eaten a hamburger. Let's just say I was starving. The ketchup spilled on my shirt and I hadn't noticed until just before we walked into the building. Having a uniform it has to be presentable at all times. My mother had tide to go in the car and we used it. sure enough it cleaned it off quick and dried within a minute. It saved me from five hundred push ups that night ^_^

Save the wedding day
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

As I was heading to my son's wedding my daughter informed me that I had a large streak of what looked like lipstick on the front of my dress. I was very distressed as I didn't anything at home to get the stain out. I still had to set up the wedding cake that I made and therefore sent my husband to purchase a stain remover at a nearby Rite-Aid store. He came back with several products including the Tide to Go pen. I had never used it before, but I grabbed that first and amazingly it got every bit of the stain out of my dress. I was so relieved! What a wonderful product. I'm sold on Tide to Go and will keep it in my purse. Thank you for saving the day.

06/08/2010
I love this product
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I bought the Tide to go pen a few months back and have never used it. I was making spaghetti sauce and got some on a new white shirt. I was just berating myself for not having changed my shirt before stirring the sauce when I remembered the Tide to go pen. I really didn't think it would work. It took one minute to remove the stain from my shirt with the pen. I have to say thank you Tide, this is the best product I have bought in a long time. In the future I will keep one in my purse at all times so that next time I won't have to dig for it.

Wedding Day Disaster
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I got married on May 15. Right before the wedding, one of my bridesmaids cut her finger pretty badly. We had her all bandaged up but during pictures, one of the bandaids opened up and blood dripped all down the front of my dress! Thankfully, my planner had a Tide-to-go pen and was able to blot out ALL of the blood from my lace and chiffon dress. I don't know what we would have done if she hadn't had that pen to save the day!

06/05/2010
OMG!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Daughter received Confirmation 2 weeks ago. She wore a beautiful white rayon/cotton and lace sweater over a white chiffon dress. After mass she received many beautiful leis (as is the Hawaiian way). The first lei she got was made with Dendrobium orchids. WELL, needless to say it left a purple stain on her white sweater. My sister-in-law said the best stain fighter is Tide-to-go. We didn't have it here at our local market and I had to wait for someone to go into town to get it from a chain store. So the sweater sat with this purple stain until today! STAIN'S GONE-2 weeks later!!! Dendrobium orchids make beautiful lei, go ahead wear white -TIDE TO GO will save the day! Mahalo Tide!!! Mahalo sister-in-law!!!

06/04/2010
Great Product, Awful Smell
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I think the Tide to Go Pen is a great product; however, I wish it had a "Fresh Linen" scent. Everytime I use the pen, the awful smell of the liquid is all that I smell for the rest of the day. P&G, the product works, but please try and make this thing smell a little more pleasant.

Causes Yellow Stains

My daughter splashed her white shirt with Dr. Pepper, after using the mini Tide pen, she ended up with yellow stains in each area where I used the Tide pen. Even after using several other Tide stain removers, we still cannot remove the yellow stains.

AMAZING!!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Today I am testifying that this product is truly AMAZING!! During my lunch hour I ran to Target to get a couple of things. As I got out of my car in the parking lot I noticed that the place where all the store baskets are stored was really close to my car so I moved it over. Needless to say it wasn't heavy. When I got into the store I noticed that on my WHITE skirt were two greasy dirty spots. I was just sick about this because it looked awful. I was sure I would be sitting at my desk the rest of the day with my white skirt looking dirty. I decided the best thing to do would be to buy a Tide stick. I've used it before so I knew it would work...just didn't know if it would work on grease or not. Well I'm here to tell you that the Tide stick got out ALL the grease and you could not even tell where it was. I was thrilled. Thank you for producing such an amazing stain remover for all of us who love to wear white.

It's Fantastic
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I bought my tide pen in New York last summer, when my boyfriend his shirt stained. It´s really works, the stain disappeared. Here in Spain, I use to clean a stain on the tablecloth, and a stain in my white pants. All disappeared. I have told all my friends who go to the U.S. to buy me one because they do not sell in Spain.

Tips Fall Off
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I like the Tide Sticks, or "Tide to Go" which is the proper name, however, after about using 1/2 the stick, the tips fall off and are unusable after that point. Wondering if the company has had similar complaints and if they plan to do anything about it. I've had this happen to 3 of my sticks and am hesitant to purchase more if they continue to do this.

Not a Wize Choice
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

Having read the conditions to which I had to agree, and not having a battery of lawyers at my disposal, I hardly know what to say, or if it would get past the hurdles that the conditions impose. I will state the facts: I got a stain on my shirt, bought Tidetogo at a nearby supermarket, applied it, and the stain remained.

Nothing gets out curry
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Tide To Go has only been available in Australia since late last year with the arrival of Costco. I'd seen them on TV and thought it may help with some stains but probably only lightening them. I spilled curry on a white shirt tonight and thought I'd have to throw it out. I got out a Tide pen and rubbed it in. I actually saw the mark disappear before my eyes. My wife couldn't believe it nor could I. I am going to buy one of these for everyone I know. There is nothing I've seen in Australia that works as well as this, and I've tried quite a few stain removers. I estimate that by this time next year, everyone in Australia will carry one of these pens with them. Thanks for everything!

A Bluberry mess
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I was at a restaurant with my father, I had on a fairly new white sweater. I ordered the bluberry crepes. Needless to say I dropped a spoonfull of bluberries on my pretty sweater. I thought it was ruined. Then I remembered the Tide To Go that my daughter bought me for Christmas that was in my purse. WOW!! It was amazing, all the blue came out like it didn't even happen. The waitress saw it and also was amazed. Thank you so much.

My daughter received 5 Falcon Feather's
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My daughter came home and said, "mommy my teacher said you are awesome and I got 5 Falcon feathers today". (Falcon feathers- after so many each student collects, they get a prize from their teacher) So I asked what happened??My daughters teacher was just venting to her students about her shirt being stained. According to my daughter, the teacher dropped her makeup onto her shirt as she applying it. So my daughter raised her hand and said "Mrs. Polis my mom uses the Tide stick". Mrs. Polis then called the school nurse to see if she might have one and she did. Mrs. Polis sent my daughter to the nurses office to get the Tide stick. Mrs. Polis used it on her stained shirt and it worked. Mrs. Polis then told my daughter "your mom is awesome! go and get 5 falcon feathers... I thought it was a funny and cute story and needed to share.....

Lid to pen
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I have purchased two packages so far from Costco Wholesale only to find that the darn lid doesn't stay on the pen. It is soooo annoying. It keeps coming off in my purse. Sure would be awesome if it came with a screw on lid instead. Otherwise...I love the product. Everyone at work is constantly asking to borrow it. Plllllllease change the lid style for us! Sincerely, Kim

Gets Your Kids back on the court
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My, son plays basketball, and during a varsity game. He went up for a rebound, he and another player collided. The other player got a bloody nose. Well you can't play with any stains or blood on your uniform. So my son was sent off the court. We went into the hall and I used my Tide To Go Pen. It removed all the blood spots, and he was good to play again. Tide saved the game.

05/04/2010
Disappointed
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I have used the pen in the past with good results. I recently bought a new pen and found that it didn't really help at all. I dropped a spot of juice from a tomatoe on my shirt while eating a sandwich. I immediately used my tide-to -go pen on the spot. It made no difference, when I washed the shirt the spot was still there. What gives, have you changed the formula ? Barbara

Good Idea But.....
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

I loved this concept when it first came out. So much so, that I bought them for my travel case, briefcase, purse, car, desk drawer, etc. I travel a lot so it came in handy. However, I am very tired of the cap falling off and the pen drying out. The first company that comes up with a simliar concept that works, in packaging that works, will get my faithful business.

Red meat sauce gone!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This stain remover is awesome. I spilled red meat sauce on my shirt and the grease spread instantly. I tried to wash it out in the bathroom but the sauce left a large orange ring. Just like the instructions noted I pressed the tip onto my stain and watched the solution go to work. I could literally see the orange stain disappearing. A-maz-ing! I would recommend this stain remover to anyone who has a small stain (that has been pretreated).

04/20/2010
great alternative use
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I have a MacBook with white keypad buttons. Over time, they really started looking bad. I tried all kinds of ways to clean them, but a Tide to Go stick cleaned them up white as new.

04/19/2010
A suggestion to the company
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I LOVE Tide-To-Go sticks. However, it REALLY needs a screw on cap. I keep buying them and having them dry out because the cap comes off in my purse!!

Terrible smell
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I spilled something on my top and had recently purchased a Tide To Go pen. It seemed to work somewhat, it dulled the spot, but the smell was terrible. At first I didn't know where the smell was coming from but remembered the pen and smelled the spot I had used it on. I must admit it smelled like someone had vomited on my top. I went to a friend in the office who also had a Tide To Go pen to see if it was just my pen. Unfortunately they said the same exact thing. I wouldn't recommend it unless you don't mind smelling bad all day.

04/15/2010
ruined!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

My husband spilled a couple drops of strawberry lemonade on a hard to find tshirt he had just bought. It not only left a ring where the tide mix came out but also bleached out the fabric. Now the shirt is ruined. Extremely disappointing.

Removes stains like you can only dream!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Today, while working at the theater, I got black paint splattered on my new white shirt...bad idea to wear it to work in, but anyway...The Tide To Go pen got the stains out COMPLETELY in only about 3 minutes! I was positive that this meant the end of my new shirt, and I was wrong. Thanks Tide!!

Stained Clothing
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I just used the product for the first time on an all white top which I dropped a very small piece of tomato on. The stain did not come out at all and after using a second time the stain just got bigger. Since it was all white I then washed it with bleach and the stain did not come out at all. What was just a small stain to begin with, is now a 6 inch stained spot and the top is now unwearable. Since this is my first time using, I would not be comfortable using this product again in fear that I would completely destroy more clothing. This seemed like a good product when advertised and would have been had it worked. I am sincerely disappointed in this product.

An Unsolicited Commercial
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My husband, granddaughter and I were spending the day in New York City and were having lunch in a Japanese restaurant before going to a theater matinee. A group of women were seated next to us. One of the women, exclaimed, "Oh, no! I always get soya sauce on my blouse when I eat at Japanese restaurants!" Without missing a beat, I reached into my pocketbook and pulled out a Tide to go stick and handed over to her and said, "Be my guest!" She proceeded to thank me and work on the stains on her blouse. They disappeared completely, she handed me back the pen and said, "You made my day!"

Coffee and the opera
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

6 months ago riding the SF transport to attend a matinee of La Traviata I was gussied up for the event. Sport jacket, blue oxford, tie, kahki slacks. Drinking latte-to-go unfortunately with the top not tightly secured. Took a sip and spilled on everything. Cries from my wife and friends and mortification. Thinking I might have to sit, stained, through one of my favorite operas. A kind passenger witting next to me handed me a Tide to Go saying, "You need this." I had never heard of it but trusting his concern ujsed it. Half an hour nary a trace of coffee. Voila.

My Son's Wedding
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

On March 6, 2010 my son's wedding day. We were at the reception. My cousin Steve was enjoying the appitizer of terryaki steak on a stick. You guessed it the sauce dripped across his pure white shirt. Not in one place but in about seven different areas of the shirt. Like any man Steve said don't worry about it. "My tie will cover the stains". My cousin Michelle said "oh no, I have Tide stick". Well Michelle pulled out the Tide to go stick and proceded to go to work on Steve's white shirt. We stood around in amazement the sauce stain came out. Not a trace of any sauce on the white shirt. Michelle said I have six year old twins. I carry my stain stick everywhere I go. The wedding was in Arizonia and Michelle lives in Wisconsin. So the Tide stain stick did travel with Michelle to Arizonia. The talk of the reset of the night is how Steve's white shirt got clean.

Saved Needlework
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I recently did a piece of needle work that took me 3 months to complete. At the end of the project, I noticed that just by holding the fabric that oils from my skin had discolored the fabric surrounding my design. I was so upset because there is no way to wash this type of needle work. Since I could not submerge my work in water, I decided to give the Tide to Go Instant Stain Remover a chance. Wow!!! I was so glad that I did. It took out all of the stain and left my beautiful needle work unchanged. Thank you, Tide to Go..you saved the day.

Ruined my jeans!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I highly recommend you NOT by this product. My daughter was trying to get a makeup stain off her brand new white jeans and after she used the product we washed, bleached etc and soaked the pants and where the make-up spot was initially it turned white but where the makeup smeared from the tide to go application it was stained permanently!!! We have tried everything! VERY DISAPPOINTING and expensive mistake to use this product!!!

A complete lifesaver!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This morning I was running late so while I was driving to work, my attempts at multitasking completely failed. I was trying to eat my breakfast (Greek yogurt with honey) and ended up feeding my black dress and my car seat instead of my mouth! I first wiped up my mess with a napkin and it was NOT a pretty picture (try to imagine what a white yogurt stain does to a black dress...). I then proceeded to attack the stain with the Tide to Go pen, and just a couple minutes later - voila! - my black dress looked fantastic and my seat was completely stainless! Thank you, Tide, for making a product that actually works! It saved me from possible humiliation!

03/17/2010
Want one!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I spilled curry on my jeans at lunch. What a mess. I borrowed the Tide to Go pen from my co-worker and the stains are history. I'm buying one next time i'm at the store. This probably could have saved some items I wound up cutting into rags, in the past.

03/12/2010
It Works As Advertised
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

It is so hard to find anything that works as easy or as good as it is advertised. I bought a coffee and was in the car ready to attend a function when I missed my mouth and dribbled coffee down the front of my white blouse. When I got to the function I was going to, someone handed me the tide to go and all I could picture was the ad with the soldier using the Tide to G0 and the Sargent getting ready to yell at him. I laughed and said "I don't think so, it won't work as easy or as fast as the ad". Boy was a wrong. It not only worked as easy but I could not find the stain nor could anyone else. I never go without it anymore. And would recommend it to anyone to try it. I didn't know there was nor ever saw a mini Tide to Go, you guessed it, I'm going to look for one today.

RED PEN STAIN
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I USED THIS PEN IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE STAIN WAS MADE. I TOOK THE NEW PEN OUT OF THE PACKAGE AND FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS TO THE LETTER. THE STAIN GOT LIGHTER BUT DID NOT DISAPPEAR. I WENT TO THE LADIES ROOM AND USED HOT WATER TO HELP . . . . DID NOT HELP BECAUSE THE STAIN BEGAN TO SET . . . . NOW THE PEN CAUSED A STAIN AROUND A STAIN CAUSING A DRY WET STAIN - NEVER HAD THAT TO HAPPEN BEFORE. THE HOT WATER MADE THAT GO AWAY BUT UNTIL I GET HOME AND USE THE LAUNDRY DETERGENT - I AM JUST NOT SATISFIED WITH THE PEN. THANKS.

Tide to Go Saves the Day-by mother of the bride
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Last summer on the day of my daughter's wedding I went to slip on my beautiful mother of the bride dress to discover "mystery" stains down the front of the dress, starting at the neckline, down to the waist. Just before being ready to burst into tears I grabbed the tide to go pen from the "emergency kit" and figured what the heck do I have to lose and starting dabbing, while silently freaking out. Now with big wet spots down the front of my tissue taffeta dress I really wanted to cry, but waited a bit and saw that they were starting to dry-and the stains disappeared before my eyes. Thank God! I dashed into my daughter's room to admire her and everyone wondered where I had been. When I told them my horror story no one could believe it. We are all now converts and always carry a tide to go pen in our purses--we never leave home without one! Again, thank you for saving the day-I can't imagine what I would have done if it hadn't worked!!!

03/08/2010
Works? Yes and No
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

This product has worked well three times that I used it previously on students' dress shirts here at the school where I work. It took out grape jelly stains, Coke, and some other random item. However, I spilled tea on my white cotton sweater and treated it heavily with the Tide to Go stain remover about 30 minutes after the stain happened, but it did not remove the stain. On the back packaging of the Tide to Go container it lists tea and coffee as some of the stains that it will remove. Well, for me, for that sweater, it did not work at all. So I am just so-so about the success of this product.

Tide to GO Saved The Day
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I am an actor who was booked for a commercial today. I arrived at the location with a collection of wardrobe to show the director. He selected the light blue shirt and said the others wouldn't do. While taking it out of my garment bag, I skinned my finger and a dime-sized bloodstain landed on the collar. It was then I realized I bought a Tide to Go pen a long time ago (on impulse) and had it in my shoulder bag. Believe me, it took the stain out in about 1 minute. WHEW!

02/24/2010
it works wonders
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I was at work eatting my breakfast, and wasted hot sauce on my white collar shirt. I was so upset because it was so early in the day and I would have to walk around with my breakfast on my shirt all day long. Next thing I know, my co-worker whips out her Tide to Go stick and within 5 minutes the stain was gone and my shirt was dried. Nothing but rave reviews for Tide!

Wedding Dress Stains
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I found chocolate stains on my wedding dress in the closet, from eight years ago. I put some tide to go on the stain, just for the heck of it, to see if it would remove the stains. The stains are gone! This product is awesome! I have been telling EVERYONE!

02/15/2010
Terrible
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I thought this would be a good idea, but using this product means to create an even worse stain on everything it touches. you get rid of the original stain and end up having an even bigger yellow stain.

02/13/2010
Amazing!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I just finished lunch only to find I had spilled burrito sauce down the front of my beige slacks. Now what? I pulled out my Tide to Go, which although I had it in my purse, I had never used before. A few dabs - a few rubs and the stain was completely gone. I couldn't believe it. I have been a Tide user for decades but never thought I would find something like this. It's great!!!!

Wedding Day Saved
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My daughter got married in August of 2009. While the wedding party was outside shooting pictures the photographer noticed that the front of my daughters white wedding gown had little specks of yellow all over it. We finally figured out that it was pollen from the flowers. Needless to say my daughter was horrified and near tears. We tried, very carefully, all of the usual home remedy fixes by putting pollen on the back of her hem just in case we made anything worse. Nothing worked and we were running out of time. Fortunately at the last minute I remembered that I had a Tide to Go stick in my car. It worked perfectly and although it may sound silly, literally saved the day. By the time we got to the ceremony there was not a spot left. This is now a standard part of the wedding day story to everyone!

02/04/2010
Amazing!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This product is great! I had a couch delivered the other day, after the delivery people left I noticed a black grease stain on the one arm. I know it says that this product works best on machiene washable material and does not work well on grease, but it took it all off!!! You can't even tell where the grease stain was! I just blotted it with a damp papertowl after the stain was cleaned and my new microfiber sofa actually looks new again!

Fashion Saver!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I recently bought an AMAZING off white jacket. It's so beautiful and soft, and I never owned anything pure white before (because of fear of stains) but I simply had to have this jacket. Wouldn't you know it, though, it encountered a stain. I was studying for a test, juggling pens and highlighters, and my blue pen brushed against my jacket, leaving ink. I grabbed my tide to go pen, and after several minutes of carefully scrubbing, the stain was gone. Thank you tide to go, for letting me wear white without (too many) worries! :)

In an Instant
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

My husband went out to the garage to load up our gear right before a trip. He came back in, wearing his tan colored pants, exclaiming that he got all dirty rubbing up against the car. He showed me, I opened up the tide to go package which I have had hanging on a bathroom wall since I saw those funny commercials that were taken off (we must laugh at ourselves, even during serious times and situations, it helps the creative energy flow so that we come up with super solutions...that's what Americans do!) the air and we tried it, it worked to take off the greasy spots, even after my husband rubbed it in with the by then dried out tip (it had been over a year up there on the wall!) and my eyes couldn't believe what they saw. So fast, so complete, and after all the rubbing it in! AMAZING MIRACLE PRODUCT! Thank you so much.

01/18/2010
Are you kidding me?!?!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

It is so rare to find a product that actually works as advertised. 6:15am, my husband is taking me to the train station for my daily commute to NYC. We were out of coffee at home so I mentioned I would just get coffee at the train station. My husband said "are you nuts? You're wearing white pants. You know how much of a klutz you are". I don't know if he jinxed me or I was just especially nervous, but I spilled coffee all down the left quad area of my new white pants. When I asked for extra napkins the gal at the counter gave me a Tide to Go pen. On my train ride to work, I worked diligently on the stain and was amazed that it had come out! It took a lot of work, after all it was nearly a half a cup of coffee. I got to work and was telling all my coworkers... "Look at my pants! I spilled coffee all over myself this morning. This Tide to Go pen really works!" That day at lunch I went to the drug store and bought two of them to keep with me at all times. I have since "testified" to the effectiveness of this product. Thanks Tide to Go! You're in all my bags now!

I CANNOT BELEIVE IT ACTUALLY WORKED! I WAS SUPERVISING MY WORKERS WHILE THEY WERE USING LIQUID NAILS, AND I BUMPED INTO THE CAULK GUN & GOT GLUE ON MY DRESS PANTS. I ASSUMED THEY WERE RUINED, & WENT TO MY OFFICE & STARTED TO WORK & THOUGHT I'LL TRY MY TIDE STICK. LIQUID NAILS IS A PETROLIUM BASED PRODUCT, SO I NEVER EXPECTED IT TO COME OUT, BUT IT COMPLETELY DISSAPPEARED! THANKS TIDE!

Wedding Fiasco
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

The bride just entered the reception hall when a child turned around from the chocolate fountain with a chocolate covered strawberry and you guessed it, dripped the chocolate all down the front of the bride's dress. The mother of the bride panicked and started to use cold water only to smear the chocolate and make it worse. I then went to my camera case and pulled out my Tide to Go pen as I NEVER GO ANYWHERE WITHOUT IT, and started dabbing at the chocolate on the dress. A short while later there was no sign of the chocolate and a relieved bride and a very thankful mother. I carry my Tide to Go pen in my purse, my camera case and have one in my desk drawer because you never know when you will need one. My friends say I am a walking commercial for Tide to Go!

Tide to go saved my wedding day!!!!!!!!

Mosty Great...but beware of the sun!
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I've been using the Tide stick for a few years now. For most stains, it really does do a terrific job. lots of time even getting pen out of shirts! BUT..... beware of using it on a white shirt, then going out into the sun. IT WILL TURN YELLOW FOREVER! i've ruined many a shirt with this little stick, not knowing that the sun was the cause of the yellowing after using it (i just now read their disclaimer about wiping the area with a damp cloth.) my suggestion....just dont go in the sun if you're wearing a white shirt and use the stick. otherwise, its a pretty good tool if you're prone to drips and anything else that can get on your clothes!

Saved the Day!

I spilled red wine down the front of my wedding dress at the beginning of my wedding reception. I thought the night was ruined, until one of my bridesmaids pulled out the Tide to go and saved the day. Literally all of the red wine came out of my white dress! I recommend that all brides (or everyone) carry this product with them.

RED WINE!

I've used these pens for a couple of years now, but it really proved itself last night. We were at a cocktail party and my fiance spilled *red wine* on my black and white dress. I used Tide-to-go and it's completely clean! Amazing!

broken pen tip

I am so disappointed with this product.

Removal of an Old Stain
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I am a student of TaeKwondo, and for 6 years I have stared at a large blood stain on the bottom of the Korean flag that I have to bow to as I enter and exit the dojang. For the last 3yrs I have been toying with the ideal of trying to get rid of the stain but I did not know how with it being so old and I did not want to make it worse. I decided to use a tide stick,. The first time around it made the stain spread but it actually thinned the stain out. I waited for it to dry and on day two, I was able to remove all the blood. The stain is completely gone and the flag looks great. Just a additional hint, wiping the the spot with a paper towel soaked in cold water helps soak up any remaning remnants of the stain and leaves it to dry clear.Thanks Tide.

09/19/2009
Not consistent
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I,m a travelling salesman which means I eat alot in my vehicule and I have to admit that the product does work sometimes but not nearly enough as far as I,m concerned. Sometimes like today it cannot even take away the stains from canteloupe drippings on a beige shirt. Very frustrating after spending that type of money. Charlie

09/18/2009
love it!!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I am a college student and love Tide to Go. Its so helpful when I'm on and spill something my clothes or my friend's spill something on them. I recenty used it on my down comfortable and in seconds the stain was gone!!! I was so amazed. I love this pen and think anyone and everyone should have this with them at all times.

09/16/2009
great idea but........
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

Your tide to go stick does work on most things. I have the problem of the tip breaking off & not being able to use the rest of the product. Please make it so it doesn't break off so easily.

09/03/2009
Works pretty well, but needs a screw top!
StarStarStarStarStar3/5

I really like the Tide to go pen, but I can't keep it in my purse as I would like because the top comes off and it leaks all over my purse and dries out. That said it works supremely well on coffee drips, so I keep it in my desk, as I am always dripping coffee on myself. I works fairly well on many other laundry mishaps, but not perfecly on some. It also works really well on, of all things, tile grout. One tide pen is enough to clean all the grout in my bathroom one time.

09/03/2009
Horrible smell and not very effective
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I've used the pen several times with mixed results. There's never any guarantee a stain will be removed, and sometimes the pen leaves its own stain after use. Also, the pen smells terrible. I am sitting here right now having to deal with this awful smell for the rest of my work day and the pen didn't even get the stain out of my shirt. I can't believe it won't remove salad dressing, which seems like a pretty common type of stain.

09/02/2009
suggestion
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I love the tide to go sticks, I just have one suggestion. If you could make the product with a screw on cap it would be wonderful. The cap frequently falls off in my purse and leaks out.

While exploring Taiwan with my daughters, we stayed at a B & B on the Penghu Islands. I was horrified one evening when I spilled red wine on the pure white comforter on my bed, I was embarrassed and dreaded the thought of the lovely innkeepers seeing what I had done. Then I remembered the Tide Pen! It took out every bit of red wine!! I keep one with me now at all times!

Saved At the Family Reunion
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Last summer I was at a family reunion. Just prior to the photographer taking a group picture I was standing next to my neice in the beverage tent while she was making a drink with vodka and grape soda. Suddenly there was a large gust of wind which knocked over the grape soda. It splattered all over my white shirt, white sneakers and beige slacks. I went into the house to see if they had a Clorox bleach stick, but they did not. The only thing available was a Tide To Go stick. I figured I would try it and was AMAZED that the spots disappeared as soon as I squeezed the liquid on. The photographer took the picture about a half hour later and you would never have guessed there had been a problem! Now I always keep a tube of this in my laundry room and I am taking one along with me on my next vacation!!

Beware of Yellow Stain after use
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I used the Tide to Go on a pea sized coffee stain on my white cotton shirt that was brand new. I washed it and found a 25 cent sized stain from the Tide to Go. I could have just used some detergent or regular soap to pre-treat the stain and I would have been able to save the shirt.............now it's going to the rag bin..........what a waste of money the Tide to Go was.

Miracle - Removed Toner
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I'm a real estate agent, so I keep Tide To Go in my desk at work. I just got a new pair of white capris, and while sending a fax at the office, I got toner on my capris! I tried cold water and hand soap, but it didn't even fade the toner. I got out the Tide To Go stick, and it came out immediately!! I was telling the other agents in my office about it, and they all joked that I need to write an e-mail to Tide and thank them, but I really did!!

08/21/2009
Excellent choice!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Today I dropped a strawberry on the front of my white shirt. We were having visitors at work for an important business meeting. I used the TideTo Go pen, and THE RED SPOTS DISAPPEARED!! Thanks.

even works on self tanner...
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I spilled that gradual tan lotion on my bedspread (which is white with a bright green pattern) and THOUGHT i got it all out, but of course four days later i realized there was a dark brown spot right where i had spilled it!! It had gradually become darker over the last few days. At this point it was completely dry and I had no idea how i was going to get it out. I don't know if you have ever used a self tanner--but this stuff is extremely hard to get out of anything. Especially once it's dry, it is literally like dye. My bedspread is almost brand new and I did not want to lug it to the dry cleaners when I was pretty sure they wouldn't even be able to remove the stain. I decided I would try my handy tide pen, since i use it on practically everything else. After just ONE application, I came back ten minutes later and it was already faded. I did 2 more rounds of Tide Pen, letting it sit for ten minutes,and blotting it with a wet wash cloth and the stain came completely out. The white fabric is white again and the bright green is still bright green. Granted, this wasn't instantly like it usually is when I spill something and blot it with my favorite pen, but I am simply amazed that the stain came out! This pen has yet to fail me in any situation, on the go or at home.

Works good - smells BAD!
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

This product works ok but smells so bad! It smells like vomit...even after the spot is dry hours later. Makes me so sick! It works to get the stain out but leaves an off color spot where the stain used to be.

08/13/2009
Took out all the stains
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I cannot say enough about this product. It saved a great deal of mine and my children's clothes from the dump including my favorite pair of jogging pants that were covered in a blood stain that I could not get out with any other product. They were ready to be thrown out when I decided to try Tide to go. I was absolutely amazed. It simply vanished. I treated the stain and left them for about a day to "cure" and subsequently washed them. When they came out of the dryer they looked like new. Thank you so much Tide to Go! Not to mention my daughter's pretty tops that were covered in little food stains all over the place. All gone and looking like new. I wish there would be a larger size to keep in the laundry room for larger stains, but I also love the Tide to go size, it fits in my purse and I carry it with me everywhere.

08/12/2009
stained
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

after using the tide pen and then washing my clothes, there was a stain left on the clothing from where the pen was used. It may have taken the stain out while it was being used but left dark spots on the clothes after being washed.

Works well but tip breaks too easy
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I bought a tide to go and thought I would try it. It worked really well the first three times I used it. However, on the fourth time the tip broke off making the pen completely useless. Not worth the money for only three uses unless you really need it.

YELLOW STAIN BE WARNED!!!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

My daugher was a big fan of your tide to go until she used it on her favorite shirt to remove a stain and it left an ugly yellowed mark in its place. This is the second person I now know of who has had this happen. Be warned you may get the stain out but ruin your clothes in the process. Think twice before buying this product

07/31/2009
Husband loves it!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Hubby, does the laundry in our household and loves the mini's! We all have one and spot check as needed. Makes a dent in the laundry and in the clothes bill.

Great spot remover, bad odor.
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

This product works great on removing stains. This product also has the worst smell. Its a trade - either live with the stain or live with the odor. Surely the people at Tide could fix the problem if they wanted to.

07/27/2009
Slightly disappointed
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I can't seem to figure out what this product works best for. I thought it would work for any type of organic stains but I have had issues with tomato sauce and other stains. It is convenient and I guess I can use it to at least make an attempt to get a stain out, but slightly disappointed.

07/24/2009
life saver!!
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I absolutely love my tide pen. I always make sure i have a loaded pen in my purse- you never know when you will need it. But if you dont have it you'll be wishing you did..always. It has never hurt any of my clothes- only helped! Would recommend to anyone for any accident. it wouldnt let me give the product a 5

not for foreigners?
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I was sent one of these sticks by my mother, who lives in America. (I live in England) While wearing a white skirt, a waiter dropped fresh pomegranate seeds on me, staining my skirt. While he ran frantically to get his boss, I took out the stick and used it. By the time the manager came over, the stain was gone! I love this product, but cannot get it in England. Please start marketing it to Tesco's, Marks and Spencer, Sainsbury's and Waitrose, so that I don't have to lend mine out anymore. Thanks!

07/18/2009
A suggestion
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

I really don't have a quesion but rather a suggestion. I love your product because it is easy to use and efficient. I've recently stopped buying it because over a period of time the liquid inside smells like vomit. Then, I smell like vomit for the rest of the day after having tried to remove the spot. I encourage you to find a way to change that vomit smell

Tide-to-Go is a Keeper!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I bought the Tide to Go Pen not expecting much. I've tried Shout and Oxy-Clean and they all get out the easy stains and fail on the tough ones. My challenge was a white fabric shower curtain with three big stains--of permanent hair coloring. Washing, bleaching...nothing got the stains out. I tried the Tide Pen and lo and behold...the stain disappeared. Instantly. Gone. Just Like That. My only problem is, my daughter immediately took the pen and now I can't find it in my neighborhood supermarket. But I'll drive anywhere, anytime to get another one. This works better than other stain remover. I tried it on a pet stain on a pale green carpet and the results were instand and immediate.

Great Product - Not So Great Packaging
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I swear by the Tide stick, however, the cap always comes off in my purse. I can't be alone with this issue. As with most women, I am frantically digging around in my purse for keys, wallet, loose change. If this item had a screw on cap versus one that snaps on, I feel it would not come open in the bottom of my purse -- at least not as often. The product is great and works very well. It has saved me many times, unless it is all dried out because of being open in the bottom of my purse!

Took out an old stain!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I found this unbelievable dress at Goodwill for $3, and I was so excited...until I noticed the stain right on the front. I decided to buy it anyway and try my luck with the Tide Pen. It took out the stain completely without damaging the dress (which was marked "dry clean only"). I was so stoked that I made up my mind to write a review on this website, and I'm buying a bunch of them to take with me everywhere I go. Thanks, Tide!

Stain from Use of Tide Pen
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

Could you tell me how to get rid of the yellow stain from the Tide Pen. The pen removed the original cherry stain but left a yellow mark which makes it impossible to wear this new, expensive shirt any more. The shirt has been worn once.

Melted Chocolate on a Tux
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I spilled chocolate from a chocolate fountain on the champagne-colored vest of my rented tux and was very stressed about it. Luckily, the bartender had a Tide to Go pen and let me use it. The chocolate vanished and disappeared totally. You can't even tell where it was! Kudos to you Tide...you saved me a lot of money!

UNBELIEVABLE!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

OMG i had never even thought about using this product until i was in a morning meeting and a very juicy blackberry sprayed all over my beautiful light pink skirt. I was mortified and thought it was ruined. I know how hard those stains are to get rid of and i just LOVED that skirt. I asked a friend at work if they had a tide pen not expecting much out of it.. I used it for a few minutes and then went to the bathroom to rub some more. I let it dry and when i look down at my skirt a few minutes later.. i can't even find the place where the stains were!! It was like magic! needless to say i am going to buy one as soon as i go home tonight! this just SAVED my day! THANK YOU TIDE!!

Small " tiny" stain

Took out tiny stain,only to turn into large yellow spot in sunlight !that now I can't wash out. 100% cotton shirt worn twice.

Good for carpets too!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I have been using my Tide pen regularly lately and it works beautifully each time. Today, however, while having my house packed up for a move, one of the packers turned my printer sideways and leaked ink onto our beige carpet. Although I discovered the spot within minutes of it happening, my efforts with blotting, carpet cleaners and even the steam cleaner were not getting the stain. My husband suggested using my Tide pen. I did and the stain is gone!!!!!!!!!!! I love these things!!

the BEST stain remover
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

When we purchased white upholstery furniture, I made sure I bought the "best" stain remover - the most expensive on the shelf in the fancy furniture store. It turned out, after many spills, that the ONLY stain remover that actually works is the Tide To-Go pen. It's so effective that I buy them in bulk, keep one handy on the coffee table, and a mini pen in each of my purses. I highly recommend this stain remover - I have tried every other brand of stain removers (spays, wipes etc.) and this is the only one that will get out any and every stain (even old stains!!)

06/11/2009
Extremely Disappointed
StarStarStarStarStar2/5

While I have used Tide To Go with success in the past, Tide To Go ruined a brand new 55%/45% Cotton/Polyester Dress Shirt I had on for a business conference where I was a speaker. A young lady accidentally got some of her Ketchup from the side of her plate on my shirt while walking away from the food table. It was a minor stain, but nonetheless a stain. I ran up to my room to get my Tide To Go; (Tide Stick) as I call it, took the shirt off, laid it on the bathroom vanity and used the stick on (3) small spots of ketchup. I dabbed the pen on all spots and rubbed back and forth a few times. The spots seemed to blend together and made a bigger stain. Actually looks as if it discolored the shirt. Ended up wearing it anyway and many people were sure to point out that I had something on the back of my shirt. I sent it out to have it laundered and it still has the discoloration or spot. This was a brand new logo shirt only costing $40, but its the point and inconvenience that has me to the point where I will never trust the product again!

06/04/2009
Works Great! Cap Doesn't!
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

I love my Tide Pen! I have one in my purse, car and at work. It does take out stains and doesn't create a mess. However, the lids don't fasten tight. The lid falls off and then the pen dries out. Please fix this design flaw and your product would be perfect!

Saved the Graduates' Tuxedoes
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This is a day I will remember always, especially with a little help from my Tide to Go pen! I was changing purses for my grandson's graduation from Mt. St. Joe Catholic High School in Baltimore, MD and decided to include my Tide to Go just in case my son, not grandson, got something on his dress shirt. The graduates wore white/black tuxedoes and my grandson had a grease mark on his white jacket. The pen saved the day as other grads approached asking for help with their splotches prior to marching into the Cathedral. While sitting in his row awaiting his turn to be called for his diploma, other young men in his row were passing the Tide to Go back and forth working on their white jackets because my grandson had put it in his pocket. All of the young men were grateful for Grandma's Tide to Go pen yesterday. I never go anywhere without one and I'm certainly glad I, and my pen, were there to help them out on a day that will be in their hearts forever. Thank you Tide . . . . P.S. I use only Tide products and love Tide Total Care.

MY DAY WAS SAVED THANKS TO TIDE!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This a personal expirence that i will remember forever! During lunch i was eating blackberries (as you migh know thier a bit messy). I was wearing my expensive crisp white JUICY shirt that i absolutely adore. As i devoured my blackberries i was shocked to find a wine colored dribble going straight down my shirt. As my next class statted, i was so embarrased that i cover my shirt with the books i was carrying. Finally i couldnt stand it any longer so i asked my teacher if she had a TIDE TO GO PEN, she replied by saying no, however she reffered me to the nurses office. As i walked in the nurses offices, filled with a few sick teenagers, she arose in shock "Oh man, what a stain" she explaimed! I asked her if she had a TIDE TO GO PEN, she said she had see one in someones desk, so being the doll that she is she started calling the ladies in the office to find one. and AH HA one was found! The nurse rushed me to the office lady and she pulled out her TIDE TO GO PEN. Kids from the councling office crowded around me to see if this product actually works. SO i started rubbing the pen on my shirt, then the ladies in the office tooks turns. As a few minutes passed by,i stood up with glee and everyone was cheered " OH MY GOSH"! THE TIDE TO GO PEN worked wonders, it saved my expensive shirt and for that i would like to thank TIDE for all you do! thank you soo much for letting me share my story KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! ~toodles :)

Red Wine
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I bought a pair of white pants to travel to Egypt with. After a bottle of Egyptian wine, some of it landed on my pure white pants. I remembered I had tide to go in my hand luggage and applied it to see. It was magic, as I wore the stain free white pants for the rest of the day, no one noticed that I was drinking red wine earlier that day. I love Tide to Go. If you ever want before and after pictures, let me know! Cheers!

Cap to Pen
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

My family and I each carry a Tide To Go Pen. The actualy product works very well, however the caps do not stay on the pens. The caps fall off in my purse and the pen dries out. The pens are to expensive to use only once or twice and when you need it the third or fourth time, it has dried out. I'm sure there is a better cap design to prevent this.

Coffee's gone
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I had my doubts, but it worked on coffee. During my commute to work I discovered my coffee cup's lid was not screwed down correctly. Coffee had dribbled all the way down my top and I had a long day ahead of me. Fortunately, I had placed the Tide-to-Go in my purse. I had to work at it. I needed to repeat the process several times and blot with a tissue, but eventually the stain faded away. It saved my day!

Ruined my new blouse!!!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I used the Tide to Go pen as directed on a new white blouse that I was wearing for the first time. It ended up staining my blouse worse than the small amount of coffee that I spilled! I am usually very loyal to Tide products, but am now seeking an alternative.

04/30/2009
Terrible
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I have been using Tide for years, my parents used and now I do. I love their laundry detergent and the way it leaves your clothes smelling so good, the Tide to go pen; not so much. I used this pen on a pair of dark shorts after getting a drop of toothpaste on it. I wiped the extra toothpaste off and then applied the Tide pen, just like the directions said, to make sure that a stain wouldn’t appear. The Tide Pen bleached my shorts. I just bought the shorts last week and today was the first day I was planning on wearing them. Thanks Tide to Go Pen!!

Top Ten Invention!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

No joke, tide pen is one of my favorite things. It's like no matter what I spill on it, it always seems to remove it almost instantly!! I carry it everywhere I go! There is no better on-the-go stain removal product. TIDE TO GO ROCKS!!

My Shirts are trash NOW!!
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

When i used it the 1st time it took the stains out and i was im pressed. When i got home i went in the laundry basket and took out 4 more white T-shirts and used the Tide pen on them also.. The next day when i went to do laundry, I was like what the heck!, all 5 Shirts had big yellow staints on them, so i went ahead and washed them, but the stains fron the pen remain. You can bet on it i will be contacting them on the phone..

Happy in Charleston
StarStarStarStarStar4/5

We visited my son at The Citadel on Parents WE and they were in there dress uniforms with white pants. He was working with the cannons and we noticed where he had cut himself and blood was on his white pants. He did not have time to change and so his mom brought out a tide to go pin and within one appliaction the blood stain was gone saving the day. He was so pleased and keeps one close by at all times now and also recommends to the other guys. Happy in Charleston

Ruined my shirt
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I dropped some of my lunch on my white shirt at work. I used the tide to go stick to remove the stain. It took the stain away, but after it dried, it left a nasty yellow stain in it's place. I have tried to wash the shirt, but the yellow stain is still there.

03/17/2009
I LOVE IT
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I just recommended to someone a minute ago. I love this but want it in a spray version and a big scratcher with it. The only complaint is that its too small and I use them up too fast. I love this product so much that I would do a commercial for it! It rocks the house! Its removed blood, blueberry jam on white pants.. Make a big spray of this stuff and I am a lifer (customer).

Ruined my shirt
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

I have a Brooks Brothers Dress shirt that I spilled some salsa on. I used Tide to Go the stain is gone but I have circles where the Tide to Go was applied. Tide to Go has discolored my shirt and in natural light is clearly visible. I would not use this product on anything important. I read about the wedding dress I guess they got lucky!

Way to go, Tide to go!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

This is a superb product! Wish I had had it years ago when my kids were small. Would have saved a lot of clothes. I give them as gifts to my friends and family. They love having them too and I have won over a bunch of new customers for you as a result. The only problem I have with the "pen" is the cap. It always comes off in my purse and dries out the tip which means some of the remover gets wasted. Any ideas? Perhaps a screw-on cap?

Saved the day on my wedding dress
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I love this thing!! I got mud on my lace wedding dress while I was taking bridal pics and the Tide to go got it out immediately. I had to be very careful because the lace was so delicate and the solution in the stick worked with just light touch. I carry one of these in my purse at ALL times.

02/10/2009
I would buy stock in these!!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I ABSOLUTELY love the Tide to Go pen!!! I kid you not, people are always asking me if I'm secretly doing commercials for Tide. I first discovered Tide to Go when I was at a Halloween party. I had a white baseball jersey on and of course I dripped meatballs with marinara sauce right down the front within moments of arriving! One of my fellow coworkers let me use hers and voila! the stain was gone!! Needless to say that was the beginning of a beautiful relationship. Now I carry them with me everywhere I go and give them as gifts! The Tide to Go pen has saved me time and time again!!!

Coffee stain gone ... Just in time!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Recently, while I was getting ready to make a presentation to a group of dental professionals, I spilled coffee on my white shirt. While I was excusing myself to go get my jacket from the car to cover the stain, a dental assistant asked me to try the Tide to Go she had in her purse. Within seconds the stain was gone. I couldn't believe it. Now I have one in my car and one in my briefcase for such emergencies.

Not so good.
StarStarStarStarStar1/5

Well after seeing advertisements and commercials for Tide to Go I've decided on getting myself a marker. I'll advise DON'T! It's supposed to work for anything but it doesn't work well with markers or ink. My favorite SRH Spade hat was recently written on in black marker. So i thought the Tide Stick would work on getting it out. I was wrong. I'll keep using the Tide marker to see if it works on any other stains. But it is a real letdown that this product doesn't nearly get the job done.

02/04/2009
Love the Tide To Go
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

I love this product. I carry one in my bag and keep one in my car at all times. Works everytime! I do have one request. Can the pen be made with a screw on cap because when in travels in a purse, the cap does come off. Keep up the good work!!!

Saved My Day!!!
StarStarStarStarStar5/5

Half an hour ago, I dropped a red permanent marker on my light khaki cords. It left two long streaks down the front of my pants. I panicked becuase I'm at work and don't want to walk around in front of clients with red marker stains on my pants. I immediately pulled out my Tide to Go Pen and started soaking the stains. After adding a little water and detergent, my pants look brand new. I am in shock, I just knew that there was no way it would ever come out. Thanks Tide to Go for saving my day!
