Overall Review
For the second time, I have counted my PODs in my 42 pack only to find 27 inside. Last time, it was 25 and I figured it was temporary factory glitch. I am now convinced this is intentional consumer price gouging and false product advertising. I am beyond disappointed and will no longer use your product.
This is the best product since gain flings the quality is good for every type of wash
I have had it up to here with tide changing the scent of their products while keeping the same label. I have a lot of sensory with smells and I’ve used the tide original pods for years and loved them. They recently added “cold water clean” to the label, but no change to scent. And then with this latest batch- same labeling- they smell completely different. Somehow both more floral and acidic? It’s terrible. I’m using mountain spring powder for now but I am upset. They have done this so many times over the years and it’s beyond frustrating.
I have been using tide original powder for 30 years been very satisfied until I decided to switch to pods original thinking is the same light fresh smell product but that was not the case, too much perfume that smells like flowers or some bathroom spray… terrible mistake by tide you have ruined your wonderful brand ..
I am visiting my son in Virginia and helping with the laundry. I have been to multiple grocery and Target Stores in search of the basic TIDE with OXI to no avail. The chemical scent that comes with all of the new and improved TIDE is offensive and unbearable to my family and me. I can smell it when I walk down the street and pass a home in which the family is doing the laundry. It smells toxic to me. Please continue to provide the basic TIDE with OXI it works great to clean and remove stains and has a light non offensive fragrance, non chemical. I had to purchase a different brand due to unavailability of my preferred basic TIDE with OXI. I have used TIDE products exclusively for 40 plus years. occasionally trying a new and improved version but have always returned to my favorite TIDE. Please let me know where I might be able to find the basic TIDE with OXI, thank you for listening
I have used pods since I received my front load machines. My clothes come out clean and smell so good! I’ve tried off beat brands and they do not hold up to Tide Pods.
Come on Tide! Please stop changing your product! The product smells like a cheap knock off and it’s causing me and my kids to break out in rashes! Do better and stop changing the product for the worst! Might be time to change to persil.
Its clear from all of the reviews out there that its a big thumbs down on the scent change. Its like wearing a bottle of perfume. I just bought my first container of pods since the scent change and it is going straight back to the store. Already had to re-wash several loads with a different brand. After all these years of using Original Tide faithfully, I guess we are breaking up. PLEASE change the scent back. Seriously. Why did you think you needed to mess with it? #leaveitalone
I have used tide Original Pods for years and just recently the smell has changed. I’m not one to leave a review, but I can’t handle the smell now. I loved it and wish they would go back to the original smell. Am I the only one who noticed a change in smell?
But not anymore. I’ve been using the pods and it is definitely convenient however I’ve had nothing but trouble with them. The first order of them were stuck together, so I ordered more and they were fine for a short time and then all stuck together again. I tried once more and they too stuck together. Package says keep them away from moisture, easy to say but hard to do after all it’sa laundry room. I’m done. You pry them apart and they go off making a heck of a mess. To me they are a pain in the backside.
These always smelled fresh and clean and now they do not. Laundry came out smelling like it hadn’t even been washed. Used them in both cold and warm water with the same result. They will not make your laundry smell good at all.
As usual Tide has done it again! I've always enjoyed their original scent and was excited to try these! No disappointment at all! Actually exceeded my smell test! Also cleaned very well even some stains are gone! These PODS are so easy to use and am glad to see Tide making them! Highly recommended!
You have to wash clothes again because the plastic pad gets stuck to cloth ☹️. It’s disappointing and a waste of time.
You don't have to worry about spills or measuring detergent. Just pop one of these into the washer, your clothes come out clean and smelling fresh. Very convenient and economical. Definitely recommend!
Tide Oxy pods did Not clean my dishes!! I had to re wash many dishes after running a hit full cycle. A poor product I’m surprised for Tide!! I will never buy it again.
As a empty nester, I find that I need a smaller size for small loads or just to freshener up some things! I bought towels and wanted to wash them before putting in linen closet and felt that a small load with limited water, 1 pod was too much! So I borrowed some liquid tide from my sister ! Any other suggestions??
I love my tide pods as a college student...they are so easy to transport if you need to carry loads to other floors/rooms. I love tide pods for their convenience, but also for how effective they are! They smells great, clean my clothes well, and are affordable
I am so happy that I tried the Tide PODS Laundry Detergent- Original Scent. My clothes have never smelled so fresh, and they got really clean. I use a commercial multi load washing machine so I put 2 pods instead of just the 1. My T shirts and other clothes got so very clean. I am very impressed with this product and will definitely use again.
I was concerned about the price point but changed my mind after I finished my first container. I found I was using more product than I needed. Discovered this by how clean and fresh my laundry was after my first load. And only used ONE POD! My husband is an avid gardener and when I washed his work clothes they were actually clean! No additional stain remover was used. Even took out the older stains. Thank you Tide! You actually save me money, time and piece of mind.
Tide has always been a great product in my opinion and these pods continue to live up to the tide reputation. I love the convenience of a pre-measured pod that I can toss into the wash without having to worry about measuring out multiple products. My clothes come out clean, and they smell fresh which is what I'm looking for in a laundry detergent.
I love using these tide pods.. They are way easier amd more convenient. They rem8ves stains and smell amazing.. I use two for a large bulky load amd 1 for a normap load. I have a smart washer and 8t is able to use these..
I received the Tide Pods laundry detergent as a product review. I love the way tide pods smell. I was worried about using it when washing my boys clothes as we usually only use one type of detergent but they didn't have any reactions.
I like that these laundry pods are easy to use and dissolve with no problem even when using cold water. They work well and leave laundry clean and smelling fresh. I also like that they are mess free just grab and go.
If you are looking for the most efficient way to do your laundry without giving up on Tide quality I would say this is a must have. It does cost a little more but its really as easy as grabbing a pod and throwing it in!
I was extremely happy with my Tide Pods I received. It's so much easier using a pod versus measuring a liquid or powder. Tide has been my favorite for many years and Tide Pods did not disappoint. They were convenient to use, cleaned my clothes very good and left them smelling amazing. They will be my go to from now on and I highly recommend them.
Tide was the only laundry detergent my family used growing up and now that I have a family of my own, I also only use Tide. Tide original is a classic go to and the new Tide PODS make washing clothes even easier! No liquid gunk stuck to a cup or leaking detergent containers. Just throw and go! They clean clothes just like regular detergent and always come out smelling so fresh & clean!
I can't breathe wearing anything washed in this. PLEASE turn it down a few notches. And NEVER again on our sheets. I was awake all night with a headache.
I like the convenience and ease of these tide pods. They also seem to be cleaning my laundry just as good as the liquid option of laundry detergent. I might try a scented version next time because I enjoy a little fragrance in my loads of laundry.
Love my Tide Pods, they work in both cold and hot water, they smell great and always get stains out that I think won’t budge. I haven’t found laundry detergent that works as good as Tide. Definitely recommend it!
Tide is the best brand on the planet for your laundry, hands down. Tide PODS are a wonderful addition to the Tide family. They are super convenient to use with no mess. They make my clothes clean and keep my colors bright. The original scent is amazing. Tide PODS are worth every penny.
Ok, so I’m all about cold water washing, and that is what temperature I usually use in my wash for normal, every day laundry. EXCEPT for whites or heavy stains…then, I always use hot water. Well, my son dropped a whole cup of bright orange drink on my pristine white comforter. I decided to go against my better judgment and try the cold water pods….holy moly it ALL came out!!! My duvet is perfectly white again! Yep, I’m a convert! Good job Tide!
This is the leading #1 brand of laundry detergent with varying scents that all smell amazing, the pods make this extremely easy to use even for children 2-3 pods for large loads, 1-2 for small-medium loads. Detergent washes throughly off the clothing , no residue is left behind. This is my families go to Laundry Detergent for life, Tide Pods, if you don’t know, now you know.
I’ve been a user of tide pods for years now. I love the easy use of this with just tossing in the washer. This gets my clothes smelling nice and cleans them well which I need since I have a toddler who loves to have fun which means more messes.
These work well and smell really nice. They're very easy to use and I haven't had any issues with them not breaking or dissolving. It's also pretty convenient to be able to look at how many are remaining and instantly know how many loads you have left before they need replacing.
I love Tide - Tide PODS® Laundry Detergent Original Scent. I was using gain laundry detergent pods but when I received the Tide pods I get a load of laundry and it made my clothes cleaner, smell better that last longer and it seemed to make my clothes softer without fabric softener.
Tide has been a trusted brand in my home for years. I love these handy tubs of pods because for the number of washes you get, it takes up a lot less space than liquid or powders. I know my clothes will come out look and smelling clean and fresh. It is so convenient to just toss in a pod or two….no mess, no fuss and nice clean clothes in the end! Would highly recommend!
These are soo easy to just pop one into the washing machine no measuring needed! The clean is amazing and my clothes always come out fresh and clean! I would recommend to anyone looking too add a little ease to their washing routine!
Tide Pods are always a great convenience when it comes to laundry time! We enjoy using pods because we don't have to measure out detergent and just toss them in. We had been having some residue issues with our usual detergent and didn't notice any issues with these pods!
I have not found a single Tide product that I haven’t loved from the very beginning. My clothes always come spotless, even the kids clothes that are stained with markers, food, and dirt. And the smell is always great, but never overpowering.
These detergent pods work way better than the other brands. Three pods in a overstuffed washing machine and the clothes still come out sparkling clean. They work great even for set in stains. I love the fresh clean scent too.
We’ve been using these pods for a couple of weeks and the difference in how clean the laundry comes out is stunning. The scent is nice as well. No need for fabric softener. Definitely switching from gain to tide.
Used it to launder regular clothes and bed linens. All came out very cleaned and with a very pleasant aroma. I gave some to my son to try and he liked using the pods. It’s a product we will continue to buy
I love these Tide pods, they smell so good! They really wash my laundry so clean, and it has a nice scent. I had no problem using them at all. I only trust Tide with my laundry, and this did not disappoint! I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to try it.
I have been very pleased with Tide PODS. I use one pod for regular loads and 2 pods for large/extra large loads. I love the clean, fresh scent of my laundry. I have been extremely pleased with how clean my clothes look and smell.
Tide PODS is my favorite laundry detergent to use. It is so easy to use. I just pop a pod in my washing machine and start a load of laundry. It leaves my clothes looking fresh and clean. It makes my clothes smell amazing too!
I Just toss a couple of a a Tide pods in the washing machine, and my clothes are as clean as can be. No measuring or pouring detergent, that can get all over the place, but still cleans as great as traditional Tide.
I love Tide because it does the best job getting my clothes clean. These pods are especially nice because they are so convenient. They do just as good of a job as the Tide powder and liquid, but are neater and easier to use. I like to take them on road trips also because they hardly take up any space and are so convenient to just pop in the washing machine. Tide is the very best, so being in this pod form is just an extra bonus.
There’s something about these pods that I feel make your clothes cleaner than traditional detergent. I’m not a scientist and maybe it’s in my head but it is super satisfying using these Tide pods! Give it a try!
I have always been a fan of original tide, so getting to try the pods was great! So very easy to use, just toss in and don’t need to worry about measuring. They clean so well and never an issue with stains or getting dirt out. They smell great and no problems with leaking or being sticky. Just toss in and throw in laundry, so easy!
I really love these Tide pods. They make my life so much easier. Just toss one into the washer and it's good to go. They make my clothes smell so good and fresh. The scent stays in my clothes for days. I love these and I would definitely recommend them.
I've been using this product for a few weeks. I will honestly say that I'm not sure how well it actually cleans the clothes and takes out stains, as most of the clothes I wash are not stained and if they are, I use a stain remover prior. However, I will say that the container the product comes in is a nice space spacer.
I’ve trusted Tide liquid detergent for years but wanted to find an easy way to carry detergent around with me without risking spillage. These tide pods did the trick! They are so convenient and easy to use. Absolutely love the no mess no stress ease of use these tide pods bring.
I love how easy laundry is done with these pods. Just toss it in and start. No measuring, no accidental detergent mess, just drop and go. I use a compact washer and I've never had an issue with the pod not breaking open. The smell is great too and last a long time. Very pleased with them and definitely a repeat customer.
These Tide pods make it so easy to do the laundry. No more measuring out various liquids and getting soap on your hands. They cleaned our clothes just as well as old fashioned tide with much less effort!
My family is so excited about how this product makes our clothes look so much cleaner and have an amazing fragrance to them after using these pods. It is easy to just toss one or two packets into your load. No messing cups to fill and no measuring makes it easy. The pods have an worked with helping the outdoor odors my husband has from working outside. The overall is that this product is so worth it. For clothes to have a brighter look and aroma that is appealing to all is fantastic.
Tide is and has always been my favorite detergent. I usually use the liquid. However the pods were a fun change and way cleaner. I know when I toss one in that my clothes will come out be clean and fresh. Every. Time. the classic tide smell is just so clean. I wish I could make my whole house smell like this!
Tide is the only brand of detergent that I know of that can keep my clothes colors bright. It removes stains, and makes your laundry smell fresh, and clean. My kids can get pretty dirty, but this detergent makes their clothes come out clean. I love the pods so no measuring needed. The directions for use are very easy to understand.
Have been using the other major laundry pods for years but never felt they truly got my clothes clean. They never got that Fresh out of the laundry smell and if they did, it didn’t last. I will ALWAYS recommend these to anyone and everyone.It has never ruin clothing by leaving staining or residue due to improper dissolving like other pods did. This is my favorite laundry pods!
These tie pods formula are made with 100% renewable wind power electricity! They're free of phosphates. They give an amazingly deep clean in cold water. That saves us 90% of our energy saving us money. Tide pods has a special formula for cold water that keeps our clothes looking colorful and bright all in 1 step. The capsules dissolve completely in 1 step. I love how it fights stains! I'll never use anything but Tide!
These are now my go-to laundry soap. These are so simple and they clean so much better than the previous soap I was using. Also, they work with a cold water wash - which is much, much better for the world than hot/warm wash.
I've been a little hesitant to try tide pods just Being used to using liquid detergent and wondering if that little pod really is going to be enough to get my clothes clean. I will be honest I was totally expecting I was going to need to wash my load a second time. But surprisingly it it did not need it. The laundry was clean it smelled nice. I really am surprised. I am convinced I am switching over to the Type pods From now on.
I have swithced back and forth to and from pods. When teaching kids to wash, I think this has been a great way to do it as it is the pre-determined amount while having the strength of Tide I need for my clothing. I am and have been a big fan of the tide so I will continue to use them. I know I used a different brand that left what seemed like some sort of film on the clothes but noticed nothing on these clothes from the pods. Defiinitely recommend.,
The pods are easy and conviene to use, I like that Tide has the list of ingredients with their description and purpose online so you know what you’re putting on your garments. However I could do without the vibrant colorings. As a personal preference I’d like to see a natural, dye free pod and options for scents duro es from natural sources like essential oils. I always feel weird throwing something BRIGHT blue and green in my whites or light colored clothes. I know it won’t stain but still is an unnecessary additive in my opinion. More variety of light scent would be great!
The Original Scent Tide Pods are my favorite when it comes to laundry. The original scent always leaves my clothes smelling amazing! The pods are so convenient to use with the perfect portion of detergent. It’s a win win. You can’t go wrong.
We started using pods a couple years ago, and have tried many brands. We have been using a cheaper, generic brand prior to getting the tide pods. Tide pods are definitely the premium pods. I will never go to generic brands again. The feel and scent of our clothes after using tide pods is much better than any other brand we have used. Definitely recommend.
Tide has always been my favorite laundry detergent. Nothing cleans better than Tide. The convenience of having the pods is wonderful. No more measuring for each load. Just throw a pod in and go. I love the original scent. You can use it a regular washer or an HE washer with no issues.
First off I was always a bottle buying detergent person. I am hooked on the pods. Love the ease with no mess. These have a great smell and I found they did a great job on my washes. I would highly recommend them fresh scent and ease great for everyone!
Tide is the go to detergent I use for our home. I never have to worry about if our clothes are getting cleaned. The packets make it so much easier and no mess. Just throw in a pod and it's ready to go, no need to make a mess measuring.
I am always trying new things. These Tide pods make doing laundry a breeze. The fragrance is light, and last through the drier. It isn't too strong. I really like the individual packaging, that make measuring unnecessary, Great to take in the RV or camping too.
I’ve always used Tide, initially in powder form, then liquid. I didn’t use a pod because it just didn’t seem like such a small amount of detergent could handle a load of laundry. I have these a try and the pod cleaned the clothes just as well as using much more in the all liquid bottles that I had previously used
I have always loved Tide, and the pods make doing laundry so easy. Just being able to throw a pod into the laundry rather than measuring out detergent makes life a little easier. It still gives your clothes that awesome tide fresh smell as well.
I'll admit that I have for years bought the tide liquid, but decided to give these a go. I always assumed that the liquid was "stronger" than these pods.. Wrong assumption on my part. These pack a lot of punch both in cleaning AND keeping a fresh scent. Highly recommend for those that are looking for a more convenient way to wash clothes that has all the strength as the original tide liquid.
I've always used Tide detergent and am in love with the convenience of these pods. When going to the laundromat, I don't have to lug around a box along with my laundry baskets. I will definitely continue to be a fan!
Love TIDE! The pods are so easy to use. Just toss in however many you need depending on your load size and that's it. So much easier to use than having to scoop powder. Also takes up less space in the laundry room.
My latest product to review is the Tide PODS Laundry Detergent Original Scent. Tide has always been the best detergent for our family because it is the most effective fighting tough stains such as grass and food stains. We also like the lingering fresh fragrance of Tide in our clothing even days after the laundry has been done. The pods clean well in cold water too. Each pod contains detergent, a stain remover and a color protector. Toss a pod or two (depending on the size amounts of laundry that needs to be done) into the washing machine drum, add laundry and turn on machine. There is no need to measure detergent anymore. I received a 14 ounce bag containing 16 pods of Tide PODS Laundry Detergent to sample and to write my review. In my opinion, Tide has always been the best laundry detergent on the market.
The Tide pod 3 in 1 Cold water clean is detergent, stain remover and color protector all in one. Designed for use in cold water for tough laundry, it works just like it says it will! Love this product that cleans my work clothes without the added energy use of hot water.
If you are a mom/dad with teenage boys, I recommend these. The Tide Pod are the best when teaching my boys to wash their own clothes. The scent is important too. They will not use anything floral or “girly” smells. This scent is more like clean rain smell. The Tide Pod does a nice job with stains and teenage boy smells in clothes and athletic/gym wear which is a must. You will save $$$$ by buying pods if your children wash clothes. If I buy fabric softener and liquid detergent, it is either used wrong (fabric softer for the detergent) or fill the containers for liquid to the top when there is just a small load. They also dissolve well in my front loading washer. There is nothing worse than drying clothes to find a non-dissolved laundry glued now to your clothes. Trust me, that is a nightmare. Again, this is a win-win for everyone especially if you have kids who you are training to take care of themselves! Throw one in and press wash.
These pods are so convenient, just pop em in your washer with your clothes ,& let them do their magic. Your clothes come out smelling great! It gets rid of most stains as well. Would definitely recommend & will be buying more in the future
I'm not usually a fan of laundry pods. I feel like they don't always 'bust' open soon enough dueing the laundry cycle. Sometimes I find myself busting them open as the washer is filling up just to be sure. These pods seemed to open at the right time because my laundry smelled really fresh at the end of the cycle. The Tide scent lasts all day. I will continue to use this product especially when traveling or at our seasonal campsite.
The Tide Pods have a triple "punch" for laundry. Each pod is a detergent, stain remover, and color protector all in one. They're easy to use, just toss into the washer without any liquid mess, and they're compatible with all washers. Best of all, they're Tide.
I am a pretty firm believer and buyer in tide. It is also one of my all time favorite soaps.... I'm sort of wishing there was dish soap that was tide-scented. Because I would definitely buy it. But I do definitely recommend this.
Tide Pods Original Scent is my favortite laundry detergent of all time. I have 3 active, dirty and rough kids that are hard on clothes but Tide can hanle job. I love the smell and how great it is on all of their stains.
Tide is the ultimate product. I can usually guarantee that my clothes will be clean and not as worn. I love the easy pods because measuring liquid is never as consisent. not having to think about that little stuff really helps moms
I Bought the Tide Pods original scent and love it !! I love using pods. It’s so easy . No measuring , no spill , no mess. I love the original scent and our clothes are clean and fresh . I highly recommend!
First off, it smells much better than the cheap stuff where most of the scent is in the bottle. Also no issues with skin irritation so that's a definite plus! Best of all, its easy to use and the fresh scent lasts for several days!
After trying different detergents we had finally narrowed down to using Tide detergent only for last 15 years. Love the smell of the detergent and clothes always come out clean. So decided to try Tide Pods and absolutely love it. I use it in HE washing machine and the film that holds the liquids completely dissolves in cold water. Depending upon the load, you may have to use 1 or 2 pods but this is very convenient.
I used these Tide Pods in place of my regular detergent, and couldn't be happier. The pods offer superior cleaning for both whites and darks, while smelling great. Tide Pods is my new detergent and I couldn't be happier!
I love Tide Pods! It makes doing laundry so much easier! I don't have to measure out the liquid and then rinse out the measuring cup. I can just grab a pod, stick it in the washing machine and go!!!!!
I bought this to give it a try and it was great ! Excellent value . The smell is amazing they are very convenient don’t take or make a lot of trash the cleaning power was awesome! I highly recommended this product
I got this about a week ago and it's just like using the liquid laundry detergent with all the mess . The tide pods still clean your laundry the same way the liquid tide does. The tide pods still smell like the liquid as well and get your clothing just as clean .
I am used to a powder, unscented detergent, but wanted to try Tide Pods for their convenience. My colored and dark clothes came out clean with a pleasant light scent. I even washed my gardening gloves! The real test though, was whites. I was surprised to find they also came out bright and clean. That you just toss in the correct number of pods before adding the clothes makes it so easy, no measuring, no mess.
I love these Tide pods. Easy to use. No messy liquid to worry about. Pop a few in your washer depending on how much wash you are washing. Original scent smells great. Gets my clothes smelling fresh and clean. Gets tough stains out. I definitely recommend to others. Tide pods are a great product.
I use Original Tide liquid on a daily basis. We went on vacation and I decide to take Tide Pods with us to save room on the travel. They were an excellent choice because of an excellent performance I expect from Tide but without the bulk! One pod was plenty for the machine at the beach condo but if I were to use at home, I feel like I would need more because of the size of my washer. All in all, great product!
I definitely recommend this to all this poss are amazing works 100% Works easily and leaves no residue. Cleans the clothes effectively and leaves them in great shape. Will recommend this product.i love the way its work and make my clothes more comfortable and clean.. Great product love how my laundry smells when I use this product
These smell amazing!!! I absolutely love the smell of fresh clean clothes and I have been buying Unstoppables for years to try and boost that clean clothes smell into my laundry and even then, it was only a little with the Unstoppables. We recently went on a skiing trip and for the ease of using something in a rented condo, I bought a small pack of these same Tide Pods. After every load of laundry, we all just smelled so nice and that freshness lasted too!! I originally was just going to leave the leftover pods at the condo for the next family, but no way!! I brought them home and then jumped on Amazon to buy more! I have said goodbye to all my other detergents and I don't even need Unstoppables anymore, so while Tide Pods are a little more expensive than my other detergent, since I'm no longer using Unstoppables, it's actually cheaper!! I even recently gave someone a comforter that I had just washed with the pods and they messaged me asking what detergent I used bc it smelled so good!! If you're sensitive to that strong fresh laundered smell, this could be too much, but for those like me who LOVE that smell, this is the detergent for you!!!
Growing up, my mom always used Tide washing powder. With 8 in the family, we had some serious need to come clean! Fast forward and I still use Tide along with other detergents albeit liquid. The pods are super easy to use and work very well. My clothes come out fresh and clean.
These tide pods are very easy to use. I simply place one inside our washing machine, ours has a special place where they go. My clothes came out nice and clean and smelling great! My fiancé works construction and his clothes get very dirty! His clothes even came out of the washer clean. Overall I'm happy with this product!
i've always been a purex user and decided to give the tide pods a try - so glad i did - i am now a tide user - smells great and get my husbands dirty work clothes clean - so glad i decided to give it a try - i've been converted now!!
These tide pods work great on even the toughest of stains - and I should know - I have two kids and everything is dirty all the time! I recommend this product to all of my friends and family with kids!
I don’t typically buy name brand detergent but I do prefer using pods. They make it easier (especially for my teens) and keep things clean and free of drips. I have these a try recently and was pleased with how they worked and the fresh smell the left behind. Not sure if I will get them again because of the price but I would still recommend them.
I recently got these to try and will be the only pods I use from here on out. I love each pod is easy to throw up in. It’s powerful with removing odors and stains and leaves my laundry smelling good. Highly recommend
I am a huge fan of laundry detergent pods due to their ease of use. However I often find myself using multiples to get the right level of clean. I work out often, typically in hot yoga or humid gyms (I live in florida) so I need a little extra care. These pods did the trick and outside of a very large load 1 was enough. They also worked well with my whites, which I never imagined getting clean with cooler water.
I love Tide. It gets my clothes good and clean. The pods are so much nicer than the liquid or powder. You don't need to measure it out. You just grab a pod and throw it in with your clothes and your done. Doesn't take up alot of room to store them. I think it makes your clothes smell nice and clean. Try it for yourself I think you will like it to.
I'm a huge fan of Tide and have been using their liquid detergent for ages but this is the first time using Tide pods laundry detergent. I love how easy the pods are to use. It's very good removing dirt and stains. Makes my clothes looks clean, bright and smelling good. I will keep using these and will definitely recommend it.
I have used Tide Pods since they started selling them. They are very convenient; you never have to guess on how much detergent for a large load or small load. They keep my clothes clean and smelling good. I will continue to buy Tide Pods in the near future and beyond.
Fresh scent, leaves my laundry smelling fresh and clean. Easy to use pods make getting laundry done just a little bit easier. My towels and sheets still smell fresh after they have been put in the linen closet for a week.
I really like my Tide 3 and 1 pods. These pods work great in cold water making my laundry very clean and smelling great with the original scent. The instructions on the packaging are very clear and easy to understand, one pod for medium load two pods for large and three pods for extra large load. I like that the instructions advising you to use dry hands while handling the product. I will be telling my friends and family about the Tide pods.
I tried the tide PODS laundry detergent original scent and found it worked great on my household laundry on all types of loads. I have been using liquid tide for years but prefer the ease of using the pods.
The pods are obviously very easy to use since you just put them in the washer and don’t have to measure anything out and there is no spillage. They dissolve completely during the washing cycle and do a great job getting rid of small stains that I didn’t even pre-treat. I like that my clothes comes out smelling lightly scented, but not heavily. I’m very pleased with the ease of use, cleaning and fragrance.
I love these tide pods, they are so quick and easy to use. They fully dissolve even on cold settings. They also make it easier for our teenagers to do their own laundry. Just toss in 2 pods for a large load and everything comes out clean and smelling great. And the scent isn't overpowering at all.
I guess I have been living under a rock for quite some time now, and like the caveman I have been measuring out my tide and filling up my laundry with liquid detergent. So much easier to pop one of these bad little daddies in and turn on the wash and walk away. Love these things no turning back now
First off, the packaging is “child-safe”. Heck, I’m an adult and found it tricky at first! No one is going to get poisoned accidentally. Second, the pods were distinct and didn’t stick together. The gummy coating feel sturdy so they won’t leak. Third, not that it matters, but the pods are pretty. Fourth, they dissolve well and make minimal bubbles — perfect for my high efficiency washer. Fifth, they made our laundry smell fantastic, but when wearing my clothes the smell didn’t conflict with my perfume. Finally, my clothes came out really clean, including a stain my husband had on a shirt pocket. We are definitely going to buy more!
I LOVE these laundry pods! They work just as well as the normal liquid detergent, but I never have to worry about measuring the detergent and then dealing with the mess of a drippy cap. It seriously makes doing laundry so easy!
I have always been a fan of Tide. I was late to the game trying Tide Pods. My opinion of Tide has improved, if that is even possible. I bought a Tide package containing 16 Pods. My mission: get my husband's work clothes clean. I placed 2 Pods in our HE washer, because I had a large load of clothes. I set the washer on the cold water setting. I put the package on a high shelf so my Grandkids or pets couldn't reach them. The package was difficult for me to open but I don't take chances. After I washed, then dried my husband's dirty, smelly work clothes I was happy that they were 100% clean. They smelled fresh. I will continue to use Tide Pods because they are convenient and perform to my satisfaction.
I really like the tide pods coldwater clean. I love the fact that I can wash my clothes in cold water and they come out clean. There was not any leftover residue left on my clothes. The smell is amazing. I did have difficulty opening the plastic bag. I recommend the Coldwater clean pods for everybody.
I received a sample package of Three in one color water pods to sample and review, they contain detergent, stain remover and color protection all in one to help maintain the longevity of your clothes. I wear scrubs which are very expensive and I need to keep them looking good and have them be free of stains and this is where Tide Pods come in, they keep my scrubs looking like they were new and at the same time they they the environment, I save money because I only wash them in cold water and it helps to maintain it's new look .
Tide is my favorite brand. Been using both liquids and pods, and yet found pods to be more favorable. They’re easy to use and won’t make a mass. The pods dissolve well and clean well. I just don’t like the scent.
We have a big family and do a LOT of laundry. Im talking…two kids that play football, dad is a mechanic always covered in grease… type of laundry. Being able to just throw the pods in instead of having a bottle of liquid detergent is super convenient. No spills and messes. The laundry always comes out stain free and smelling amazing!
I love this brand. You get what you pay for when it comes to laundry detergent. If you want something that truly cleans your clothes and keeps them fresh you defiantly want this brand. I really like the pods because they are so convent to just throw in and be done without measuring out detergent. These are the way to go! Perfectly portioned!
I love using these Tide pods. I love the way our clothes feel and look. The smell is amazing. Brought the colors out on our clothing awesome also. I would definitely recommend to friends and family any day.
There is no better detergent than Tide to begin with and then you get it in an easy to use pod is even better. Tide cleans so well and smells amazing. I love these pods! I will be buying these all the time now.
I love Tide pods! They are quick, easy, and mess free! I just throw a pod into my washer with my clothes and that’s it! I don’t have to worry about liquid detergent getting spilled everywhere or making a mess. The Tide Pods are great and do the job!
Well I haven’t tried Tide in years until now! It is better now and it’s the pods. Your clothes are very clean, smell is amazing and very easy on your clothes! I love how my clothes smell and feel after using! They are the best ever! I recommend it to everyone.
Tide pods are amazing. I try to get these every chance I can, when the store isn't sold out. Great stain fighting power. Long lasting fresh scent. The great value Tide is known for. All in a tiny little economic package! Great job as always!
These are so much better than trying to measure out soap or spilling liquid soap all over the place. The perfect amount each and every time. The cloths come out perfect. I use these all the time now. No more liquid or powder for me.
Used a Tide Pod today for washing a two loads of laundry. Clothes smelled good when I got them out of the washer but not strong at all of a scent when I took them out of the dryer. Clothes got clean and worked well in Cold Water.
So much easier to use then the traditional powder or liquid detergents. No more measuring out your detergents or over using it. Pop one pod in your washing machine and your clothes come out smelling great. They are nice and clean.
I absolutely love this detergent!! It smells sooo good and does an amazing job at getting stains out. When you have kids that love to roll in the freshly cut grass this is very important lol. Will purchase more in the future thank you!
I have always preferred pods to liquid detergent. These work so well and let you use less product. The scent is nice and they keep your laundry nice and clean. Would recommend to anyone wanting to try out a new detergent.
I love Tide and all of the products associated with Tide. But the Tide PODS takes the cake. Easy and convenient are the words that I will use. Just with the name Tide we know that the clothes will come out clean. With the PODS washing clothes it now a step faster. Throw in clothes, throw in Tide POD, press start. That is it. So convenient.
I got these for the smell. They smell wonderful and I think they work. I don’t have stains on my pants now. I’m very happy with how my close are. Eliminates smells well. I would definitely recommend this to my friends
Tide cold water clean has a powerhouse cleaning effect in a pod that you can see and feel,and I love the clean scent.These pods are meant for removing the toughest stains.⁰0⁰ĺ I like how they clean so well in coldwater..very convenient, just drop into washer and that's it.easy.Tide is the best laundry detergent that brings clean in a pod that's easy and convenient to use,
We have been longtime powdered detergent users and this was my first time trying a pod. Tide Pods work great! It was so easy to just toss it into my washer (no scooping and breaking up clumps in my powdered detergent). I may never go back! They came in a safety sealed back, which I appreciate, and the scent is very classic Tide. No complaints here!
The Tide PODS Laundry Detergent is great. It leaves my clothes smelling great. I always feel like the clothes are so clean after using the product. Especially, since the pods are 3 in 1. The concentrated detergent, stain remover and color protector. They are safe in HE washers.
I received this to sample for my laundry. I noticed that my clothes looked better and smelled good.It is very simple to use and I don't have to worry about my clothes not being clean. I was happy knowing that my clothes will look good.
I was hoping to find a new laundry detergent that had a longer lasting scent and this is definitely it! Tide has consistently made products that work and this one is no different. My husband was pleasantly surprised that the scent is a bit more “manly” rather than a more perfume like scent.
I have used Tide for over 30 years, these pods are amazing! Tide has always been a name to trust and these have not let me down. Clothes smell great, feel soft, and look clean. My cabinet is cleaner and better organized with less product to worry about. No more spills of powder or liquid. READ the directions and don't handle with wet hands!! They slime up quickly!
Growing up Mom always used tide. Now I'm grown up and love my tide pods. Seriously cant get any easier than throwing a pod or two in with the laundry. I always stock up at sale time. My 6th grade was doing a laundry segment at school and had to help a parent with laundry and write a paper. I showed him how and he was shocked that all you need was a pod, lol. Apparently, he got to skip the writing about a pre stain treater, measuring out liquid, which dispenser to add it to ect. Guess I'll have him doing laundry now! My tide has never let me down.
Love these tide pods. They are great to throw into the wash and even can do cold water clean. I like that you can also throw in to travel bag for you washing on the go in the hotel or Airbnb if you are traveling. They are very handy and the smell isn’t overpowering.
Tide is a brand that I have used and trusted for many years! There are so many pros to these little convenient pods. Having 5 kids from toddler to teenager, I definitely need a detergent that is full of strength and stain busting technology. These work just as good using cold water as they would in warm, saving even more money! The new child lock also helps prevents my toddler from having access to the pods. It works hard on stains, but soft on the fabric, and leaves a very nice and clean scent that lasts for days. No worries about measuring any liquids, just toss and go! Love my tide!!!
I frequently use tide product, and these pods are my favorite overall. The pods last longer than original liquid, which I appreciate. They smell great and I pair them with scent beads to amplify the scent. The pods are great at removing tough stains, and truly leave my laundry looking and smelling fantastic.
I love this tide so much. It cleans clothes great and even gets out stains. The pods are so easy and convenient to use, you just throw the whole pod in the washer. I love the original scent! It’s clean and fresh smelling.
Tide pods are very easy to use. Grab one and throw it in the bottom of the washer and then add your clothes to be washed that's all. These 3 in 1 Tide Pods are great. The detergent, stain remover and the color protector all in one tab is excellent!!
The smell is amazing. We washed the clothes using cold water (which I prefer). They came out clean and the smell was amazing. We didn't use a fabric softener sheet in the dryer like we normally do, and yet there was absolutely no static when they came out of the dryer. These are going to be saving us some money during these tough financial times. This will be the only product that well need to purchase. Also just using cold water will help bring our electric bill down. These Tide Pods are a Win-Win.
Easy way to get clean clothes without measuring liquids or powders, just an easy grab and toss it in the washer. My clothes always come out smelling clean and fresh without having to wash multiple times
I love how clean these pods get my clothes and eliminates odor. Love how you don’t even have to measure, just chuck one or two in. And I have a toddler so we have some clothes that get messy. Highly recommend, will definitely keep this item on my shopping list
I love tide pods. The original smell just makes me nostalgic. It’s easy no mess to store it and put it in the machine . Although the box for storage is good I keep mine in air right fancy jars. It is easy to carry these to our number ours beach vacations that we take . Cleans the toughest stains that kids get back from their baseball games .cleans well even when we use cold water wash . Love the smell.
Tide pods are a great product. They do a really good job cleaning my clothes. They also have a nice fresh scent. I like using the pods because they are not messy and they are easy for my children to use.
Had to try these right away! It is so much easier to use then bulky heavy weight gallons and trying to size up how much of what I need. You just pop these pods in and go! Great product cleans great! Must have!
This is my favorite laundry detergent all the time. Is very good removing dirt and stains. Makes my clothes looks clean, bright and smelling good. I like the pods because is very easy to use with the perfect amount.
I'm a huge fan of Tide and have been using their detergent for ages. I love how easy the pods are to use - no measuring or anything, just ready to pop in and go! It's the easiest part of doing laundry!
This is the first time using Tide Pods Laundry Detergent. I’ve always used liquid tide. First time using Tide Pods and really like them. They clean just as well as liquid, the container is less heavy, makes less mess, and a lot easier to throw and go. Thank you Tide for making another awesome product to keep our clothes clean and fresh smelling.
I love how simple the pods are to use and how lightweight the container is. The best thing about these Tide Pods is their cleaning ability. They were able to take out an old grease stain from my husband's shirt!
I have tried all kinds of these type of pods. I always seamed to have a residue on my clothing after washing them. These Tide pods worked great had nothing on my clothing and they seamed so much fresher
Tide is always a great laundry detergent, with a great smell. Now they have taken it a step further and added in stainlifters and fabric softener all in one pod. I noticed not only were my clothes cleaner but stayed fresh longer. My family and I have very sensitive skin and can tolerate this brand.
I truly love this brand and their original scent. Having the laundry pod takes the guesswork out of measuring for each load. I do wish it was a bit cheaper, but other than that I have nothing but love for it. Would definitely recommend
We have been using Tide Pods for years. I love how well they work to both clean our laundry and keep the color in our clothes. The original scent smells nice but is not too overbearing. They always get our clothes clean, includidng those of my young children.
Tide pods never dissapoint with getting my laundry clean. These pods are easy to throw in the washer and make clothes smell great! These can be used with coldwater and you throw in 1-3 pods based on the size of your laundry load.
Wow I think I found my forever laundry detergent! In the past I always used generic liquid detergent that left my clothes smelling weird and didn't always feel super clean. I recently started using these Tide Pods with their original scent and I'm now converted for life. It was so easy to use, all you do is toss one in for normal loads of laundry and it does the heavy work of cleaning and left my clothes smelling lovely. I highly recommend trying these out!
I love these tide pods. They make doing laundry so easy. No more having to measure liquid laundry detergent or cleaning split detergent off my washing machine. The packaging specifies how many pods to use depending on the size of the clothing load. The clothes come out smelling fresh and clean. The detergent is also gentle on my kiddos skin and the packaging is child proof!.
Why haven't I tried PODS before? They are so easy to use! They are great for the family to do their laundry without me worrying they will use too much liquid detergent in the washing machine. Cleans well and leaves a fresh scent.
These pods are fantastic. I just throw one in with my load of laundry and it goes to work. When I open the washer lid it smells so good. After drying them I bring them upstairs to fold. As I'm folding I can still smell the fresh scent. Tide gets my clothes perfectly clean. I don't have to add any additional cleaners to my washer while using Tide pods. It does all the work by itself. I can pull a shirt out of my dresser drawer a week after being washed and it still smells amazing. I would definitely recommend.
Wow…I can’t believe I haven’t tried these before. I do alot of dirty laundry and these pods certainly do the trick. They are easy to throw into the washing machine especially when my arms are usually full of laundry walking into the laundry room. Although I was leary about the power of cleaning, they did a great job. Although I’ve found a new friend, I will always have a bottle of liquid Tide for my stain treating. It’s all good!!
I've used these pods for a while now and have had no issues until recently. I washed my white comforter and when I took it out of the wash there were blue and green stains like the colors of the pods that weren't there before. I tried rewashing with bleach, detergent, and stain remover with no luck. This has never happened before and I'm honestly very sad my comforter has stains. Might have to switch back to regular detergent.
Ive used multiple other products from this brand but I recently switched from the breeze scented pods to original, but that was a total mistake. After I used these pods with some of my lighter colored clothes turned BLUE. I thought nothing of it until I used the pods again but in an ALL WHITE load and everything came out with a blue shade. I don’t recommend this product unless you want to turn your fabric another color.
I have twice now since switching to pods went to put dress shirt on and the pod has totally stuck the shirt together. The outside has dried on the cuff once and in the inside. Not a good product...
Tide has always been the best detergent out there. It gives my clothes the best clean and keeps colors looking bright. It fights against tough smells like when I was the dogs bedding. I am always amazed at how well everything comes out. AND CAN WE TALK ABOUT THE CONVENIENCE OF PODS?! It makes doing laundry so much easier and avoids messes that happens with liquid detergents.
I can’t tell if these are the HE pods, but we only buy the HE pods. This is otherwise what we get, and they do a good job of cleaning the clothes. Every once in a while, a pod won’t break open all the way, and I will find a partially dissolved pod on clothes. I will have to re-wash some items, which is annoying. However, that might happen once a year—if even that often.
Works amazing and leaves clothes with a nice fresh scent that smells clean. Pods are the way to go and they dissolve at any temperature so it's perfect
I don’t use the tide pods but I use tide laundry detergent but I love all tide products and know for a doubt that these work just as good a the laundry detergent yes would recommend to anyinr
These pods got our clothes clean, collectively. When son comes home from work, his clothes need great cleaning, due to food and all being on them. The pods clean our clothes and his clothes effectively! And they smell great, too! Bargain in your pocket!
I really like using these 3-in-1 Tide pods! Super easy to throw in the wash and leaves no mess! I love the 2 pound pack because it lasts me a while. I definitely like using this over liquid detergent! I won’t go back unless I need to.
Very expensive. Need more sales or coupons but product was good. Would use again if was not so pricey . Great product though
This is not the Original scent from years ago. Nowhere on the packaging says you reformulated the products scent so your packaging is a downright Lie. I agree with the may others that this scent is seriously overpowering and very harmful to your health...not to mention the blue dye stains on my clothes. I will never use a tide pod again.
I’ve been a loyal tide customer for 28 years I used the pods because of my new machines and all my kids clothes got stained I figured pay for the best and you get the best and I was wrong I’m very disappointed
I have a been a loyal Tide user for more than 50 years as it has always been the most reliable detergent. Cleans well and smells great. And with the convenience of Tide pods I love it even more. However, I absolutely hate the plastic container that they come in. For mature people it is difficult to pick up with one hand and hold on to. I thought about buying the smaller containers with the "zip" top, but it is more economical to buy the larger sizes. Would be great if Tide could modify the pod containers to have a handle like the liquid containers instead of the indentation grab holds.
I had a brand new sweatshirt I had never worn and it along with an entire load is now ruined with blue stains ALL over them from the detergent. I rewashed the load with no detergent and also with detergent and it did not make a difference so many of my clothes now ruined. As a college student I am beyond disappointed because I cannot afford to replace any of it, including my work clothes. I am so upset do NOT buy this product.l
I had to quit using Tide pods because were destroying our clothing. They don’t dissolve like Tide claims. Therefore destroying sheets, blankets, t-shirts
I can’t stand the smell. I had to rinse my clothes 4 times. I had a large load, so used 2 pods. Way too much perfume. Not cheap either. Should come with an eye dropper.
The scent is so overpowering and not the original scent that I have been using for years. It smells of cheap perfume and it lasts for days on clothes. I will have to find another brand.
I bought Tide Pods as a convenience. I cannot get the child proof lid off by myself. The span of my hand is not wide enough. My husband had a terrible time today removing the lid and we decided we won't buy Tide Pods anymore. There has to be a better way! People need to keep Tide Pods away from their kids (watch them) and keep the government out of your business.
I do like the pods. The only reason I didn’t give. 5 star is that I have noticed when they melt in the washer sometimes they melt on my laundry. I’ve noticed this on my sheets and other clothing.
I am not sure if the TIDE 3 in 1 pods have changed their formula. We love TIDE because we do not get an allergic reaction to the formula. HOWEVER, I have a consistent problem with the outside not dissolving away leaving a hard sticky substance on my laundry. I have been using the pods for years in the same machine and had no problems. This past year, all of my laundry loads come out with one or two garments having the hard sticky stain. I have to use shout to get the sticky off the garment because another wash does not do the trick. I am not crazy about washing a clean piece of clothing twice, but the sticky stain on my clothes and towels and sheets results in a required second washing.
I can’t get the container open, I will never buy this container again. I have been using tide my entire life, but I will have to switch to something that I can use. I have to go to a neighbor to open my tide pods before I can do my laundry! That is really maddening!
I recently purchased the 10X power pods-I have been a life long Tide user but this weekend I was very upset to pull my sheets and a brand new lighter color pair of jeans out of the washer completely ruined by the blue substance in the pod-blue stains all over the sheets and my pants!
This is the third time I have purchased the Tide pods 42 pack capsules. No problem as far as how well Tide cleans my clothes nor the convenience of the pods, BUT they will stick together and right now I have a container of 5 pods left and all stuck together. This is continually happening so I have had to change to liquid Tide in the big bulky container. Problem there was that I had to wait till someone came to my home to open it for me because there was no way I could due to arthritis.
I use nothing else. Tide pods are the best. All my mom used was Tide. Like mom like daughter. Something I’d like in my pods would be lavender sense. Love lavender. During these pandemic times I think Tide Pods lavender would call all of us. Thanks
Dear Tide, I have used Tide for over 40 years. Tide is the best detertent on the market for me, but I hate the strong perfumy smells that you are putting into Tide. Can you please change them
I use liquid Tide original scent all of the time; a good product. Purchased and used the Tide PODS 3 in 1 Original Scent and had to throw them away. Seriously over scented. I even left the washed laundry out for a couple of days and the room was almost overwhelmed with the scent. Had to rewash the whole load.
I have use Tide for many years. It stands out above all other brands. When you want the best results, you buy the best product....TIDE!!!
Do I recommend Tide Pods? Yes and No. Yes, I think they get clothes clearn......except for dark clothing. The pods leave white residue all over the dark or black clothing. I have to wash all of them again, all by themselves without detergent, in order to get out the white streaks the pods make. It's very aggravating to me.
I have a nighty Tshirt that I’ve worn almost nonstop since March .2019, I got one for my daughter too so sentimental. It is black background with different color sleepy time print. Wold not even venture a guess how many times it’s been washed. 1 wash with this and it was like new black not faded. I didn’t even realize these pods “rejuvenated” I was so shocked, I investigated more about this product. Unbelievable! How did that happen, and totally removed oily salad dressing from light grey shorts, grey shoes everything. I’m mystified and impressed.
The child-lock bag will not close. I even tried the instructions for what to do when it doesn’t close and that also didn’t work. Is it that hard to engineer a bag that is simple to close?
bought 4 packs & really disappointed. The dark color in them have ruined three of my tops. Have to dissolve in a cup & add to washer
My laundry looks great & they smell so fresh!! But the best part, no skin irritations! Tide is the one & only!
I'm glad to see that other are not happy with the scent of Tide Original Pods. It's overpowering and lingers. It was also strong in my folded clothes.
have trouble sticking to clothes after taken out of dryer. can,t get it off. like a hard glue .
I have to say something about the product because Tide won't let me post anything about their marketing
Bought a couple new "original" scent bottles. I must say WHAT HAPPENED? I had to return them and bought another brand. Terrible odor of the new scent. You lost a reliable customer.
I switched to pods so I would not throw out the jugs. I hope that P&G is considering switching to a cardboard package.
I’m so disappointed that Tide changed its formula. This new formula is so strong and perfumy I had to return it. I will have to look elsewhere for a new detergent.
This product now smells like cheap perfume. Had to wash clothes twice to get stench out. At least tell the consume before you change it.
it is a very good product the fragrance in clothes is fresh so lake
Please don’t tell me to use a liquid, and please declare whether you will ever make a good pod again, so we know where we stand and whether we should move on.
It's a great way to start teaching your kids to do their own laundry. It's quick and you don't have to worry about them using to much detergent! No messes.
Tide pods has become my favorite laundry detergent to use. Only thing I ask is for Tide to change the original scent back as it is the main one I use! Thanks tide!
Dont know what happened to these pods, but they r not the same. They do not dissolve any more and get stuck on the clothes. Will be going back to liquid, not as much work or xtra step. They r terrible

When the family asks why the clothes smell bad you know it's not good. Why change it and keep calling it "Original"? I tossed a pack thinking I got a bad batch. Nope! The next pack smells the same.
Last batch of Original Pods I bought smelled AWFUL.WHY change a scent that has been loved for decades?With no indication?VERY unhappy.I’ll have to start using another brand since I can't trust Tide.
CS said Original Scent was changed, and the old Original Scent is now Mountain Spring (not made in Pods). Very confusing! You lost me as a customer because of this, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
I hate the new original scent! Bring back the old original scent! I have to buy a different brand now.
How can you change the scent and still call it “original”? I’ve used Tide Original exclusively for decades, but it’s changed recently and now I hate the way my laundry smells! Will not purchase again.
I use to overpour the soap into the washer all the time, and had always wasted soap. Now the Pod is the perfect amount. No more stains!
The new scent is too strong and horrible. Not only are you losing an older generation but based on my 20+ aged kids and their college friends, you may have just lost the next generation as well.
Original scent was great. Why change it?? I will not buy this again. Now I have wasted tide pods that will never be used. I wish they would change it back to the "original".
Original scent means original scent and not a new scent. Now that you've changed these, the smell lingers on my laundry and it's awful.
Original now is so overpowering and stinky. I've used tide for years and have been very happy. No more Unfortunately I have 140 unused pods of the original scent. WHAT a waste of money..
Please P&G change the original scent back. I’ve used these pods for 10 years but I will have to switch to another brand. It’s not the same scent and is too perfume smelling.
I’ve used tide pods for years... will no longer be using due to this overwhelming scent!
Sorry to have to say bye-bye Felicia! Tide pods original 96c This Stinks! The original scent is no longer original- totally overpowering ... it is false advertisement!
These do a great job, and I really loved the original scent. The new scent is way too strong & gives me a headache. I would give these 5 stars if it was like before.
The new sent is absolutely Unctuous! Tide has numerous scents to choose from.. I found the Original sent to be clean and refreshing.
My daughter loves the original scent. We also like the sport scent because my son plays collage soccer and he gets pretty dirty.
I purchased 96 ct original pods on 5/17/19 and noticed after washing clothes the scent is overpowering and not as pleasant as previous 42 ct original pod packs. Has scent changed?
I’ve been a loyal user of the ORIGINAL scent over 20 years. This changed version is no longer the “ORIGINAL” smell and is too perfumed. I’m over Tide and switching to another brand.
I am so disappointed that the original scent in your Tide Pods has been modified, it's over whelming and cannot tolerate it. I am now looking for a new product, Good bye Tide
it punched me in the face with it’s overwhelming scent. Looks like I’ll be shopping for a different brand.
The new scent for Tide Original is terrible. It's overpowering and it stinks for days. Why wasn't the package labeled new fragrance? After 30+ years of use, I will stop buying Tide.
We LOVED the old original scent and were very disappointed when we did the laundry. At least be honest and let the consumers know that this is a new scent, not original.
Don't buy if you liked the old smell, they changed it! I had to wash jeans 3 times to get the odor a little less & I can still smell them as I type this (that's after having worn them once already)!
I bought a new pack of original scent pods. After I opened them I noticed a terrible smell. I thought my husband had left some solvent in the laundry room but the source of the smell was the pods.
No mention of new scent on package. Smells like cheap perfume. Incredibly strong and do not like. Will not use again. Actually want to RE wash the load I did to get rid of smell.
Why oh why would you change my beloved original scent? This new scent is so overpowering, my entire house smells like perfume just from doing laundry. So disappointed. Off to find a new brand.
I agree with the others, the new scent is horrible! Doesn't seem right to continue to sell as original when it clearly is NOT! Please ditch the new formula and bring back the TRUE original scent!
Disappointed in the change and the lack of warning to the customer of a scent change. In the past, I have purchased the original scent Tide pods for a light, yet fresh, scent. Will no longer buy.
When did you change the scent? Please tell me you will be coming out with the Original old scent soon. Until then, you have lost a customer.
Bought what I thought was original scent and was hugely disappointed! No labeling indicating change and now stuck with entire container of pods I cannot use. Smells like cheap perfume!
Bought what I thought was original scent & was hugely disappointed! No labeling indicating scent had been changed & now stuck with entire container of pods I can’t use. Stinks like cheap perfume!
What were you thinking. The stink coming for my clothes is offensive. The low scent original original is the reason I buy Tide brand. Maybe you could add Olestra to the formulation.
The original scent tide pods have changed! 4/9/2019 I bought a new bag and I hate the scent. Why did it change. Boo. Need to find a new detergent now. Hate the “too smelly” stuff.
Have used Tide for over 20 years. This recent scent change has missed the mark (without warning). Heavily scented and overpowering. Too strong, not warranted. Why mess with a good thing? P.U.
The scent is WAY to powerful, it will make your clothes smell like perfume for days! It stinks up laundry room and whole house. Please bring the "original" back and fix the perfume smell! 1 STAR
Whoever decided to change the scent of Original Scent Tide Pods should be fired. My clothes smell disgusting now. I will never but these again.
Pod has ruined a nightgown and has messed up a few other items also. I loved the pods worked well for years and then they quit dissolving and am finding the plastic and product stuck to my clothes.
Bought a new pack of original pods - they are NOT the same smell! They smell so awful I’ve had to re-wash 3 loads of laundry!! PLEASE bring back old sent and not this new “woodsy” smell!
Although the original clean scent has be gone for years, this new original is horrible. It will make your clothes smell like they are covered In perfume. Even my laundry room smelled like perfume!
Original by definition means from the beginning. Don't change the original scent after decades! At least label it as a new scent and don't sell it in the exact same container with an unchanged label.
Following the instructions on label and clothes still come out with the plastic on them
I can’t stand the smell of most detergents but this one smells clean and not overpowering. Thanks Tide for a great product and clean laundry!
Original Scent pods are my favorite they are easy to use Easy to store one pod gets a load of laundry smelling fresh and looking clean and new Tide Pods is all I use
i used these on my sons football uniform, trying to not only clean but also smell better.And theses worked like a charm!!! I DONT use anything else now! Thank you TIDE
Have always loved tidepods but recently did a load and must have melted or something and stained my sheets.
BEING IN MY 70'S WITH ARTHRITIC HANDS I FIND IT VERY HARD TO OPEN THE PACKAGE. IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO PRESS DOWN AND SLIDE AT THE SAME TIME.
Please do not use if you are using with any colors! So sad to have used with my blue towels, no bleach but now have white spots in all my good towels.
Pods would not dissolve fully no matter how large the load or what setting my washing machine was placed on and stained my clothes with blue dye and the plastic melted to my clothing.
I did not realize how great they were until my washer broke down. The ability to grab a couple of the pods and take to the laundromat was great and so easy.
I follow instructions,pods first, don't overload washer, & added extra rinse.Soaking clothes over-nite & re-wash increase time & cost of doing laundry & extra wear & tear on items. Not worth hassle.
The tide pods are becoming a nightmare!! At the end of a wash I will find a piece of clothing that still has remains of the pods plastic/soap, harden on them.
Pods outer plastic layer stuck to bedsheets & clumps of the detergent still in the machine after the wash. The plastic gooey substance leftover RUINED the sheets: now have gross stains all over them.
This product worked extremely well,and I wouldn’t have used any other.I am glad I bought this product.I highly recommended it to anyone that has any doubts about it.
Washed my brand new lulu lemon joggers and they came out with lighter patches all over. They've also stained some of my other clothes and it was very disappointing.
If the pod material has been 'improved', please change it back. I don't have time to check, soak & rewash the affected items!
in 10 yr. old LG FL, now found melted pcs. on washed/dried clothes in brand new LG FL. Clothes are damaged; returning to liq. once pods end. (12/2017)
This is product so good . I love Tide it's the best for are family . Tank you for such a good product.
The tide brand does not disolve properly. they leave a sticky mess on clothes that must be soaked off and you must rewash the item.
These green ones stink and we stopped using them when they took away the original ones!
This commercial makes me laugh every time I here it. The imagery I get in my head with the contrast of voices is spot on (get it...spot) and very creative.
I will not use this product because of the most annoying Pandora ad singing about tomato soup
Occasionally Tide Pods failed to completely dissolve, leaving a gooey mess. If not discovered before machine drying, the mess hardens and is difficult to remove without damaging clothes.
Brand new HE machines both washer and dryer. The Tide Pods are the only packs that don't dissolve! Gel sticks to wet fabric and comes out hardened like dried super glue. SKIP THESE!
This new packaging is not only child safe, it's senior safe! Had to finally cut open the package after trying several times to follow your "open" directions. Not good for seniors with arthritis!!!
Don't dissolve regularly when directions followed, leave jelly wrapper in the rim of the washer (front loader), requires checking each item for residue before drying.
Too bad i cant post the pic Looks like it melted on the pants.
I found remnants of the pod and some goo at the drum outlet, obviously did not fully dissolve. I am going back to liquid.
The last 2 81 ct Pods leaked in the container on the others. Can make a huge mess. May determine my continued use.
Leaving blue stains on my clothing after washing, so not happy!
Twice in the last two weeks the pods have not fully dissolved and "glued" to clothes. I've used the pods since the beginning and never had this happen. I always use warm or hot water cycles.
Had a couple of instances where the casing of the Pod didn't dissolve fully. The result was a slimy square patch that clung to an item of clothing after the cycle.

LOVE the idea, but out of 5 packages I've bought, 3 have had bursted pods in them, making for all the rest of pods to be slimey and sticky
BEEN USING FOR YEARS, BUT IT RUINED A FEW PAIRS OF SHORTS, SHIRTS AND A COMFORTER. NOT DISSOLVING AND MELTING THE POD CASE TO CLOTHES.
Pods melted into the fabric of my clothes too many times!
My 4th blouse ruined by pods not dissolving, stains do not come out. I am finished with Tide!!!
I have same issue as many others...not dissolving in my FL washer...disappointing..
the PODs do not dissolve fully, have to run the wash a second time defeating the purpose of having an energy efficient front loading washer.
It didn't dissolve and ruined my clothes! was stuck like hard plastic to the clothes that is impossible to remove!
Tide consumer for decades. Pods are a mess. First issue staining - much more than once. To bring laundry out to be done. Pods aside and the dreadful things melted. Tide lost a customer.
I only use 1 POD per load. In my latest bag I have found 6 attached PODS. You try to pull them apart and BUSTED. Is there a safe way to separate these little twin PODS?
The plastic from the pod didn't dissolve all the way and melted onto some of my clothes in the dryer. I re-washed 2X without success. >$200 in clothing items ruined!

The reviews I read are for removing stains from the Pods, nothing about the melted plastic on my clothes. Tide was the best.... now its the worst.
Pods don't fully dissolve & plastic gets stuck to my clothes. Tried to remove plastic and tore my shirt. The pods also causing blue/purple stains on my clothes. Dollars going to Tide competitor now.
We have lost many articles of clothing due to the pods sticking to our clothes and not dissolving properly! I've always used Tide and I'm so disappointed. :(
Horrible product leaves undissolved packet on clothing. Lost several items as a result, and nothing fixes it. Lots of complaints on web about this; avoid these!
we love them because easy fast cute and smells great . and has stain treatment that actually works so for not so stubborn stains its great and hassle free!
I have pics of the Tide Pods that didn't dissolve and backed up my water flow and flooded my kitchen ... what a mess I had ... you owe me a explanation on why this happened
blues stains all over light colored clothing - third time this happened finally realized it was the pods damaging my clothes - HORRIBLE
Not only do Tide Pods leave my family's clothing clean and fresh, I was amazed when they removed hydrogen peroxide stains from a black scrub top. No pretreatment, just Pods in cold water. I am hooked!
Has ruined so many of my clothes as they do not dissolve and end up staining the load. Very disappointed. DO NOT USE!
I used the pods as directed. Pods first then clothes. Plastic stuck to 2 of my work shirts and 2 pairs of socks.
Tide pods are not dissolving in my new front loading washer! Change the formula please!
I was very disappointed in this product. The pod did not dissolve and stuck to an article of clothing and ruined it. It was like a hard spot of yuck! I was not happy.
I love my Tide pods, they make my clothes look good and smell fresh.
Did not dissolve completely and thus where unknowingly transferred to the dryer. The undissolved portion stuck onto our clothes and literally "melted"
The scent on these things is wayyyyy too strong! It's like someone marinating in too much perfume; I can smell myself all day! It's only gone when I wash it again in another detergent. Blech!
I put the PODS into my front load washer then queen sheets and 2 bath towels. I discovered a swatch of bleached out area on a new towel bottom sheet. THE PODS ARE NOW IN THE TRASH...NEVER AGAIN!
Itchy Dry Eyes after using Tide Pods on your bedding? Put your bedding on rinse/spin cycle after the wash. No more Dry itchy Eyes. It's not an allergy after all!
I have followed the manufacturer's directions, and no matter what I try, I am left with melted plastic on clothes and stains that will not come out! I will not buy this product again!
Had a jacket that had ring around the collar. Washed it twice with tide pods. Didn't do a thing. Won't buy it ever again.
Many times after a wash and dry I find melted tide pods on my clothing. Several items have had blue and orange stains as well. Very disappointed and won't be buying again.
Tide pod didn't dissolve totally. Got stuck on clothing and needed to wash several times to get off clothes (color and plastic)
The tide pods stain my clothes and the plastic stays suck on them as well.
I had no idea I would have to check my clean clothes for tide pod residue so I tossed them into the dryer and now I am out some nice clothes. Tide Pods are GARBAGE and should be taken OFF the market.
The plastic outer shell doesn't dissolve. The detergent stains clothes and is impossible to get out. The plastic waste, and detergent stains have ruined numerous clothing. Wouldnt recommend.
Your PODS have made doing laundry so much easier! There's no need to measure out detergent liquid now! They can be expensive depending on how often you have to buy them.
Tide Pods do not dissolve properly so often that every wash I have to check if the plastic casing is sticking my clothes together. Not worth the hassle or the embarrassment if I miss one.
I buy these all the time but only thing is at the bottom they start to get stuck together and I have to rip them apart and always lose a couple
Pods do not always dissolve. Residue melts to clothers while drying. On average this is ruining one garment per month. Will be looking for a another brand.
disappointed! the pods did not dissolve and one was stuck on my blouse and it melted in the dryer. They say you get what you pay for, in this case i did not.
I was so happy to find a product that didn't irritate my skin.
The pods do not melt even when using hot water. They have stained my sheets, clothes and towels.
This keeps leaving residue from the pods on my shirts. Used directly in drum as the instructions say, in our LG front loader with cold (not tap) water. Our city water is great quality too
I love the convenience of them, always using one before clothes are added, but now they don't dissolve and leave a gummy residue on my clothes. Never had an issue before my restock.
The pods do not dissolve unless you let them sit for 20+ minutes in water before adding clothes
Awesome!this product is exactly what I needed it controlls the washer and other cloths and its awesome
its just awesome detergent.................best than any one else
Recently I purchased Tide pods and have ruined many clothes due to the pods not dissolving thus leaving a hard plastic residue on clothing.
Tide pods first time user here. What a horrible product this Tide Pod is. The Tide Pods don't dissolve and stick half-melted to clothes and filter section. How on earth did this get through QA?
Tide pods are great! They clean very well and I love the way my clothes smell after wash!
This is possibly the greatest thing that I've seen! We have a high efficiency washer and the PODS work amazingly well with it!!! Keep up the great work!!
I love tide pods and they are so easy to use. Jst throw and go. I have 4 kids and my honey so it saves time and cleans fantastic! We have tons of laundry and love ur products jst wish it was cheaper
I love the fragrance of these PODS! The only issue is when you have busted pods in your pouch. Just glad they didn't all stick together!
I tried 4 different loads and all pods did not dissolve. The pods actually stuck to mine and my family's clothes. Its disgusting and ruining my clothes.
I have had 5 different articles of clothing ruined because of the pods. Not all of them dissolve, about half stick. I will never buy them again.
Several times plastic wrapper didn't melt during the wash cycle and clothes had clumps in them due to dried plastic that stuck on the fabric. The detergent itself stayed on the clothes.
Every time I did laundry at least one article of clothing would be covered in a gooey, thick substance (outer layer of the pods). My clothes are ruined! I would not recommend these!
Several times plastic wrapper didn't melt during the wash cycle and clothes had clumps in them due to dried plastic that stuck on the fabric. I don't recommend this product at all.
: I brought tide pods because I heard how awesome it is! Well, to my surprise it didn't work at removing grape juice stain after two washes however, it did lighten it up a little bit. :(
Notice melted plastic on our clothes. Pods are not dissolving in the regular wash cycle. Stay away from these
Why are the pods not always dissoling? Some of the gel sticks to some clothes and I have to rewash.
Using these pods have ruined hundres of dollars of clothes. Leaves bright patches on clothes and sometimes doesn't disolve all the way so I have to rewash clothes.
After finally trying Tide Pods I found that they leave marks on the cloths and they do not dissolve completely causing me to have to rewash laundry. Which is a waste of time and money.
It makes doing laundry very simple and easy and easier for me to get other things done
Using hot or cold, the gummy, hard to remove mess is horrible. Can't scrub off residue with hot water & toothbrush! When you have to re-wash 2 or 3 things twice, waste of time and money? No more!
I wanted to like them bc of their convince but they ruin your clothes. It leaves a plastic residue on your clothes. It doesn't matter if you use cold or hot water.
Did not totally wash out of my clothes and left big clumps on clothes. Ruined them. Only wanted to rate 1 circle not 1 1/2 on both value and quality. Not worth it.
I would definitely recommend Tide pods to anyone. A+++
I've used one of a relative when I ran out of mine and it works great for me
I have used this product forever. Would not change ever.
I am a very Loyal Tide Customer. This product does not dissolve quickly! This product leaves Your clothes stained with a purplish streak
I am not impressed. When use these PODS we either find half of the pod un-disolved and stuck in the water return of the washer or after drying kind of melted and stained blue on a piece of clothing.
Quite a few loads came out with clothes being stained with a sticky jelly like residue. I found it is coming from the pods. Very disappointed. not sure if I will use what I have left. Wow tide!
I just used Tide Pods with my whites and one shirt came out stained blue from the detergent, and another shirt was partially melted from the plastic casing!! Now I have to throw it out. Thanks!!
Have been using for over a year. Was working wonderful, but last couple of loads have left some of the plastic on the clothing. Have a couple of pictures of last two loads leaving some on jeans.
I like to know hoe to remove the stains that the pods leave behind? My laundry has stains from the pods. Dark shadow like on my cotton and polyester blend clothes.
3 ruined shirts and one ruined pair of pants. The pods left a blue stain that cannot be removed.
Convenient but only work if you use two pods per normal size load. This make them a terrible value. Like most products from P&G these days lack luster at best.
Follow the instructions: pods first then clothes, but there is pod residue like melted plastic which requires a second wash. Complete waste of money having to constantly rewash.
These would be a great idea for college students but they melt on my son's clothes and don't come off, even after repeated washings.
Garbage. Ruining my clothing by depositing hard melted lumps, sticking them together. Going to find another brand of detergent. Done with these and Tide.
Would definitely use this product. It really does make a difference. Thet fragrances are very pleasing aromas.
I have used these for a while successfully. Now they are not dissolving properly and my clothes require rewashing.
I followed directions exactly, putting 1 (or 2 for XL loads) in my washer before putting in my clothes. So far, they have left blue and orange marks on a bath mat, an expensive shirt, and bedsheets.
Easy to use and clothes come out clean every time.
Love these!! They are so good and they always keep my clothes smelling clean and fresh!!
As directed, I put the pod in the drum first, then clothes. Both loads so far the pod melted on my clothes and I needed to rewash. I really wanted to love these, but they're a waste.
I start to use the Tide Pods from the first time I saw it in the Store. IS THE BEST, easy to use, Great quality, and there are variety to choose.
I use the tide pods as directed, and I place them in the drum prior to loading the drum with clothing, and I have had the pod melt onto my clothes twice. It has ruined a pair of pants and a blouse.
This product is great for small loads of laundry but when it comes to big loads I do not like using two of the pods, I feel like it is a waste. Other than that use this product on a daily basis
We typically like the quality of Tide, but the pods were a big disappointment. First use ruined two clothing articles. Not sure we'll gamble on using any more from the package.
LOADS of ruined laundry! Re-washing has been a nightmare and doesn't work. my brand new machine is too efficient for these ridiculous things. I see why there is a 200 character limit!
Horrible product, all stuck together, exploded when I gently pulled apart for use. If I didn't have glasses on, it would have gotten in my eyes! I will NEVER again use or recommend this product.
This Product is exactly what I needed! This Product is exactly what I needed! This Product is exactly what I needed! This Product is exactly what I needed!
his Product is exactly what I needed! his Product is exactly what I needed! his Product is exactly what I needed! his Product is exactly what I needed!
I used as directed and my clothes had bluish purple stains after washing in cold water on delicate cycle.
The last two containers have left hard blue spots on my clothes. Put them in first. Do not overload and use warm water. I shouldn't have to jump through hoops and rewash my clothes.
My clothes are cleaner and more refreshing. I found my new soul mate thanks tide!
Several loads have had to be rewashed as the pod ended up being stuck to my clothes like socks, sheets, shirts and other garments.
Recommend tide liquid not pods, but keep an eye on your drain, 2x we have had solid plastic blockage from undissolved pods. H2O warm 90% of loads and laundry never overloaded.
Pods get stuck to my clothes and do not dissolve completely. It has ruined several shirts. I have front load washer, and cannot add pods to water first. Not a happy customer!
The Tide pods have ruined several articles of clothing. I have washed, soaked and re-washed stained items and the blue marks do not come off. Terrible!!!
I've found undissolved pods on both my clothes and / or the washing machine drain, after warm and cold washes, normal and delicate cycles, on a front-load washer.
I love these tide pods and have had no problems at all with them. I am just wondering if I can wash a 100% polyester comforter with them?
The pod melted to my favorite shirt and is now ruined
The pod did not fully disappear during the wash cycle. During the dry cycle it melted into the fabric of my shirt. Will not purchase again
I will not recommend this product. It ruined some of my clothes, the blue marks from the pods wouldn't come off no matter what I did. I don't buy cheap clothes. Don't buy it...
This product is great! It's to use. I wish it was a little less expensive for the convenience.
I use Tide brand for a long time,i chang this pods now,is exactly what I needed.
I love Tide and have used it for years. I never use any other product.
The product had a great scent it also left my clothes super soft. I really liked it. Just a little too expensicd
The label says the product dissolves at all temperatures - but this just doesn't happen. Say goodbye to High Efficiency, because you have to wash everything twice.
Easy to use - clean washer and clean clothes - seems pricey at first but once you've used up the current ones and use the pods, only the pods, you've saved some money
Very good product. Prefer buying when on special or with discounts.
If I could afford to, I would purchase these every time! easy to use, no measuring, no mess. Clothes are thoroughly clean and smell nice!
Only works in HOT water, apparently. The package claims this product works in all temperatures, but obviously it does not. Misleading info on the package.
I'm so glad to have the Tide Pods because I never have to worry if I am using too much or not enough. It works great with my HE washing machine.
We've had problems with the pods no completely dissolving and then we have to attempt to dissolve the remaining pod that's on the shirt and rewash.
i have used Tide liquid and was happy with that. BUT!!!! this product does not dissolve properly i have had stains on my shirts, i had red and blue undissolved soap i am not happy with this product.
in very convenient small bags, good smell and price, good washing experiences
this is good job,I like it. I needed this TIDE PODS wash my clothes。
This product washes well and is easy on clothes whereas other products I've tried fade material.
Tide pods are great for the clothes and easy to use.
I was impressed with this product, as my laundry seemed cleaner and fresher than usual! As a busy single mother, time is valuable. This product helps me save time!
I love the convenience of this product! It's not messy and it does a great job getting my clothing clean.
Whirlpool washer drips detergent outside of the front of my machine if I open the door to add an item. This is a solution I need. Thank you!
This product took all of the dirt and grime out of my husband's clothes. He works for the railroad and gets really dirty. Great product! Thanks for the free Sample!
This product isn't tailored to the specific load. If there's more or less laundry, it still uses the same amount of product. Perhaps it could come in a few different sizes.
It works even when using cold water. Such quality, just what I need to get clean, fresh clothing every time.
I love the ease of the Tide PODS. Toss them in and close the door. Even my kids can do their own laundry!
I really like using the Tide Pods now. Oh my, was I surprised!! It really cleans well and even in cold water.
I probably would not have purchased this product off the shelf. I received a sample and was very surprised at how well it worked. My clothes were much cleaner?
I put the Tide pod in first and then loaded my sons clothes in the washer. After drying, I noticed hard dried melted plastic-like spots all over his clothes.
super easy and convenient and great for those allergic to likeminded products. highly recommend
THIS IS A GREAT PRODUCT FOR ME MY CLOTHES ARE CLEAN, THEY SMELL GREAT AND THE PRODUCT IS EXTREMELY EASY TO USE
After trying it for the first I really loved it and it smelled really wonderful. Excited to have discovered it. Thanks!
Loved the scent and how the clothes smelled and cleaned
I liked the fact that there was no measuring of the detergent, just drop in the pod and away you go!
PODS are ruining our clothes. Either a chunky residue or streaks from the blue & orange die. Nothing comes out!
Like using TIDE, one of my favorite brands, great quality and do not need a lot of detergent compared to other brands. Laundry always looks clean and smells fresh.
Yup, works really great! And supereasy to use. But find it expensive in some stores...
Would like to receive more samples.and coupon. GREAT PRODUCT
It's one of the best laundry detergents I have used in 40 years! The ease of use and the reduction of having to measure is a delight.
I love how simple and clean these PODs are! The detergent itself keeps my clothes bright and smelling wonderful! Tide is by far my favorite detergent!
I have always loved Tide. It's one of the best detergents on the market! I have used it for years but stopped 4 years ago when my income was cut in half.
Like this product and will recommend to my friends
I have always used Tide Products, But this the best product yet. Easy, does the best cleaning job on my clothes with my new clothes washer would recommend this Tide product
Tide is great. Pods are the best. Easy to use, excellent cleaning, stain removing with a delightful smell!
This product is new to me but now will be on next grocery list.
Tide PODS have true cleaning power! A pod that packs a punch on dirt! Wow! I will be adding these little power packs to my wash routine. They also leave my laundry smelling fresh!
Really like the smell and the feel of the clean wash!
this is so easy to use and it smells amazing !!! it cleans your clothes so well with no work
I enjoy the product. fast and efficient it works and speeds up my time with her at the laundromat and or at home
I have issues with my hands not working well and the ease of the pods make my life a lot easier and no mess.
Just can't afford to pay for products a little too expensive for me.
It smells great and so convenient to use. I will be buying this from now on. Thank you for the sample.
The pods are so convenient and the storage is so much easier than a large bottle of liquid. I Will have to buy a full size package after trying this sample.
Easy to use, but I don't like the smell. Won't purchase.
the product is good and smells fresh and convenient.
Spring Meadow Tide emitted a lovely, clean smell to my clothes. Not only did my clothes smell wonderful, but it also left my grandchildren's clothes stain free and fresh.
This product was really good, it made my clothes smell really fresh and they came out really clean too!
I liked it. It's so easy to use and the clothes came out clean.
I love the convenience of the pods; prior to this I sometimes felt I overused liquid products by just pouring the amount I thought I needed.
I love this product. It's easy to use and makes my clothes fresh and clean. I have found that the pods work really well in warm and hot water.
Tide is a great, reliable product. Now in the convenience of a pod. Love it!
Love the scent! I definitely would purchase this product in the future.
With one Tide pod no mess simple enough for my daughter to even do a load of laundry left closthes so clean and fresh. Thank you Tide
Loved the product! Super convenient to just toss in the wash before you put in your dirty laundry. PODS are a little pricey though.
So convenient easy to use. it's light and not to heavy takes up very little space. I loved the smell and my clothes were cleaner than ever.
Even through I can not use it in my clothing. I used it in my family clothing. Stains that I did not think would come out did. Grandson plays baseball so you can imagine is uniform.
I have always Tide as my mother did. I extremely enjoy the pods. It makes it so easy and quick.
Easy to use, works perfectly, nice to my Miele washer!
It's a good product. My closes were clean and smelled nice w the inclusion out f d downy lavender softener.
Just did a load of clothes using the Tide pod and I think I will be pleased with the results.
I have arthritic hands so the fact I don't have to lift anything is fantastic. Same great product and ease of use. What more could anyone want. Thank you P&G
OUTSTANDING CLEANING POWER WOULD RECOMEND THIS PRODUCT TO ANYBODY WITH STUBBERN STAINS AND LOVES THE SMELL OF CLEAN AND FRESH CLOTHES
very effective in its cleaning power -and a very refreshing fragrance.
This Product is exactly what I needed n also make my clothes smell really good
The outside of the pods melted onto my clothes and messed up two of my favorite pairs of really expensive Calvin Klein boxers..
very convenient. just the right amount of cleaning product
My clothes have never been this clean, or smell this good without having to spray them with a scent in a bottle. I never used tide pods before, but find them easier to use
It is very convenience to use, just put 1 capsule into the cleaning machine with the clothes. My clothes are cleaner and smell good at all.
Great smelling works great so convenient not bulky like regular soaps
Works great, certainly convenient, but I really prefer unscented laundry products.
I never bought Pods before because I just thought they would never do the job. After receiving a sample and using, I was completely surprised by the power that little POD packed.
These are very convenient but I prefer laundry detergent that is odor free and uses less chemicals. The smell of this product is strong but they do clean well. I am a Norwex consumer.
THE PODS MADE A BIG DIFFERENCE IN SOFTNESS, FRESHNESS, AND HOW BRIGHT MY COLORS CAME OUT.
Tide Pods make laundry a breeze! I simply toss in one Tide Pod, then add clothes & water. No more measuring or spilling for me! It's like magic! What a genius invention!
I used this product and it left my clothes smelling fresh! I love it.
These pods are simple and work great, They make doing laundry a breeze.
I am always looking for different ways to save time doing laundry and this is one that helped me. No hassling with soap dispensers, just pop-and-go! Loved it!
I take these on vacation and it cleans the clothes.
I USE TIDE PRODUCTS SINCE 1963, FIRST THE POWDER THEN LIQUID. THE PODS ARE A DELIGHT. I USED BEADS YESTERDAY FOR THE FIRST TIME. TIDE AND DOWNY ARE A HIT WITH ME. THANK YOU.
No worries though, they aren't ruined. I soaked my clothes in the wash with a cup of vinegar and it all came off.
My clothes were very staticky after coming out of the dryer. The smell is okay, but I always buy Tide with the pink Downy scent. My clothes felt clean, but as not soft. They are also too expensive.
These pods are great to take along on vacation or on the rare occasions I must go to the laundromat. They take up little space but still have the power of Tide.
I received a sample of Tide PODS, and decided to test it on my children's muddy uniforms. It did a great job of removing the grass and mud stain from knees. Will continue to use in the future.
I HAVE BEEN USING FREE AND CLEAR PRODUCTS FOR YEARS. TRIED THIS FREE SAMPLE, CAN'T GET THE SMELL OUT OF MY HOUSE. HAD TO REWASH THE CLOTHES AND THAT IS SAD BECAUSE I HATE WASTING WATER.
Perfect for my HE washer! I loved the PODS and will purchase them again.
The Tide Pod are great with no measuring needed and having a great scent.
THIS PRODUCT MADE MY CLOTHES SMELL SO GOOD FOR DAYS
I didn't believe that the stain remover would work but it did! It removed some light grass stains from jeans without my having to pre-treat. Did not fade the jeans or leave light spots at all.
I know my clothes will come out clean! Any tough stains are removed! I just toss it in the washer and it quickly dissolves!
Love it, clothes are bright, fresh and smell luscious.
I feel sometimes like I am not really getting enough product into my machine. Like it is really not enough soap . I know it says it is but it is new and scared me a bit Lol
As a college student, I'm constantly looking for more efficient ways of doing things. With Tide PODS doing my laundry isn't an inconvenience anymore.
This product is easy to use and makes clothes feel clean and smell like a spring morning.
THIS PRODUCT IS PERFECT FOR MY FAMILY. I JUST LOVE IT!
Satisfactory but not exceptional. Other products cost less and do the same or a better job
I can always count on Tide to safely clean my clothes and prevent color fading. Would highly recommend this product. Love the new Spring Meadow Scent as well.
This product is great when you run out of detergent, or are on the road. Quick and easy to travel, and easy to use.
Have a 13 year old and love the fact that I can toss it in and go, no messy liquid or powder to spill. Works well on stains that you might not have known were there too.
No more messy laundry measuring cups! Just drop in a tide pod and you are on your way to clean, fresh laundry.
It was great receiving a free sample in the mail. Hopefully, I will win the contest; then I would be able to afford such a nice product.
I've been using another brand for so long, that I haven't given this brand a chance. It smells so great & our clothes came out clean and fresh!
This product smells great and was so easy to just toss in the washer.
New product was very easy to use. However we had no idea as to what size laundry load to use it with. the phrase "most loads' doesn't hack it. Sorry
Using my pod at the moment Saves time and I love it
I love this product...no measuring...so spilling...NO MESS!!!
Usually I use tide sport. Wanted to use up the Tide pods I had. I had two pacs of tide pods that were YELLOW. One of the pacs were unopened. I'm sticking with Tide Sport. I'm done with Tide pods.
The product helped clean my dishes nicely in my very tired dishwasher.
These Tide Pods are lighter to carry than the liquid detergent, and I love the TideFree Pods for us chemically sensitive people. Thanks for leading the way, Tide!
I've always loved Tide products for their quality. I like the new PODS because it's super easy to just throw one in the wash without mess or measuring. They are great for travel also.
I really like the quality and convenience of this product. I started using them when I was teaching my kids how to do their own laundry. It will be extremely convenient for my kids at college.
It is convenient, easy, efficient, and cost effective for a student. Thank you Tide for making his washing and cleaning simpler.
There is a smell I like. The Product makes my laundry pleasant and soft. I would recommend the Product to my friends and relatives
TIDE PODS AND DOWNY WERE GREAT PRODUCTS. WILL CONTINUE THE BUY BECAUSE I LIKE THEM VERY MUCH. WILL BE BUYING MORE WHEN I CAN GET TO THE STORE TO BUY MORE.
Love this product! It cleans my clothes great and smells amazing...nothing better then clean smelling clothes!!
I definetly like Tide as a product, and I think this Pods are certanly awesome because yo have the exact measure, and its smells great. The clothes are very clean.
It's easy and you always put the right amount in each load of laundry. It makes having the kids help out with laundry easier. They make doing laundry faster and more hassle free.
great for no more dripping/messy pour detergent bottles, quick, easy and efficient!
This is great because it is neat and clean. I HATE the messiness of bottles of detergent.
I dissolved these in hot and cold laundry before adding it in the washer. I never overfill my washer. I have had to throw away clothes and sheets away due to purple/blue tinted stains.
Tide Pods are Perfect. I just throw in one or 2 for a Super big load and Tide takes care of everything. No measuring or pouring. The Pods are Great!!!
I have a teenage son at home and he is a little uncoordinated. This product takes the guess work out of how much detergent to put in the washer. I would like to see better stain removal performance.
its been a long time since I used any detergent that wasn't fragrance free. I'm allergic to it, so I used this on my husbands clothes. They cleaned up fine. But they wreaked of "detergent".
I like how quick and easy it is to use this product. It just makes laundry duty easier and who does not appreciate that?
Easy to use, especially when I'm in a rush. Just toss it in and that's all!
the original is the best for me. I do not care for a strong scent in my wash.
I love the product. It is easy to use and convenient.
The pods leave my shirt with an annoying residue. Pods don't melt completely. Leave a thick purple gel on my shirt. It ruined shirts and jeans. Tried picking the gel off and washing again but no luck.
These are the perfect laundry product, just toss in and there's no mess and they're perfectly measured. Everything you need in one little pod!
I'm a 3rd generation Tide user. After trying Pods my clothes were clean, smelled fresh, & were softer! No measuring or spills! I converted my Mother to Tide Pods after using Tide powder for 50 years!
I enjoyed receiving this sample. I was not sure about this product until I used it. It worked great. I will buy this product in the future.
It gets my clothes clean and fresh smelling in my HE machine
Tide pods make doing laundry so much easier not to mention it cleans very well and leaves clothes spotless and smelling fresh. I love this product.
I have grown up in a family that used only Tide powder, way before the liquid,or pods. Still mine and I now use the pods. If the store is out I use the liquid.
Tried this for the first time after receiving a sample and enjoyed the convenience of not having to measure. One POD handled a large load of jeans and cleaned them thoroughly.
Tide PODS work great & take the stains out. It's nice to not have to measure any messy detergent...just toss the PODS in the washer and go.
I USED IT IMEDIATLY....HA A LOT OF LAUNDRY SO I GOT RIGHT ON IT.
I haven't tried product yet but intend to on next wash cycle. I grew up using Tide detergent so I'm excited to try this product instead of powder.
Love the ease of use of this product. Clothes smells terrific and come out spotless
this product is very easy to use. I like that you don't have to lift a heavy detergent bottle. it is also very clean to use. no messy detergents
This PODS are excellent for all types of laundry and smell is very good!
As I took it out of the washer it stained my clothes with a purple/blue color and the plastic that is holding the detergent is suppose to dissolve but it never did, it was suck to one of the shirts.
i like the product it worked well cleaned all the stains
I've never heard of these beads before wow I was so in love I only used a little each wash to make the sample last hahaha I will hopefully win this money to buy more hahhaha it's my birthday March 2
tide found a way to make life a little more easy. NO measuring, NO thought process, just toss your clothes in with a POD and press go. my clothes have never been more clean with tide pods.
wash came out very good. when shopping i don't go for the more expensive brands but may buy with a coupon & only use it for normal to big loads.
I have pictures of me doing my laundry in Viet Nam in a helmet in 1969-my mother and grand mother used it-there is no equal. D. Blue
Works great and convenient but is very heavily scented and harsh to the skin if you have sensitive skin. Also on the pricy side. value is in how much you get out of it.
I received a sample and so gave it a try. It is so easy to use. Much more convenient than measuring out the liquid.
Tide Pods Original are easy to use, effective detergent, and scent is as good as Spring Meadow, which is my regular Tide Pod
I like the fact that the pods don't make a mess like normal liquid detergent. Also, once the container is getting low, I can move the remaining pods to a ziploc bag and it saves space.
Easy to use. I only had one and washed a large lightweight load. My sensitive skin has had no problem with the clothes. The fragrance will reduce in the dryer.
Clothes look very clean ,,,not visible stains was seen on my daughter's white top(uniform) Scent was awesome and fresh. Definitely will be purchasing Tide Pods
this product is great in the fact the measurements are accurate too the load of clothes and no more spill or mess with liquids or powders. The extra money you pay makes up in convenience and time.
Gets the stains out, brightens my laundry and is soooooo easy to use! Thanks, Tide.!
i love not having to over or under pour or spilling.
When I first seen the comercial I thought it was crazy,until I thought I would try them, they where great don't need to use dryer sheets anymore and my laundry comes out clean and fresh.
Tide Pods make doing laundry so convenient! Throw in a pod, clothes, softener and that's it! Love Tide Pods!
THIS IS THE BEST PRODUCT I'VE EVER SEEM; REALLY EASY TO USE AND WORTHLESS. THANKS.
Frequent sales enable me to purchase more of this product.
I love tide. And I love the pods. Best and smells amazing
Never dissolve in our HE front loader, plastic mush & seen spots on clothes, fans of Tide but they don't work unless we use hot water, long wash. Can't smell scent either.
To make it short and sweet, I've tried most every laundry detergent there is and found out Tide cleans best, including tough stains, leaving your laundry smelling fresh and feeling soft.
So very squishy!!!!! No thinking required when using the squishy.
So easy to use and cleans very well. the scent is wonderful also!
I tend to not waste time measuring detergent and use too much on a regular basis. The pods eliminate that problem as there is no need to measure! Smells great and cleans as well as Tide liquid.
I love the tide pods. They are easy to use. No more messy measuring cups.
I am picky about my detergent. I have three small children and do a lot of laundry. Pods keep our clothes clean and fresh! Another great product from Tide!
So excited when I found the original scent. Had even emailed my wish begore. Thank you.
Clothes Smells Amazing and feels CLEAN after washing and drying! Even my husbands work clothes smell good! Highly recommend.
This a great product! I would highly recommend it to all my family and friends! It cleans your clothing really well and the smell last for weeks! You will love it
I appreciated getting a sample along with my purchase. I haven't used the pods in a while and it was nice to try them again. Will most likely buy them in the future (if the price is right).
We love TIDE PODS, have been using them for years. Tide is hands down the best detergent out there and it smells amazing! I love when someone asks me how I get my laundry to smell so good!
Tide PODS can easily be dropped in the soap dispenser.
it destroyed and stain 3 items from my laundry, it is a bad product it doesn't dissolve completely
My son works in a fast food restaurant and his clothes are grease stained and smelly. The Tide pods Spring Meadow actually removed the grease stains and the fried food odor is gone. Thanks Tide!
Fun and a new way to do wash A very pleasant smell.
I like the ease of use for this product and it was a great item for my husbands winter coats! Thanks!!!
Great product!!! Love the convenience. You don't waste any. It smells good and easy to you.
have been using tide for years & will always use. gives a great clean & feeling to my laundry
I love Tide Pods! I used them in my front load washer and it was SO EASY! Tide Pods also make my clothes smell super fresh and I love the smell of laundry!
I love how clean and fresh my clothes are after using tide. Tide is the only brand I trust for my family's' clothing.
I received the product for free and figured I would give it a shot. Very easy to use, no pouring liquids into the little cup and spilling all over the place. Just throw it in the bin.
This is the only laundry product I need, does the job the first time.
Its just and amazing no other comment would describe it
Like to use the pods, no need to measure detergent, I am lazy :)
With Tide Pods, when I go to the laundromat I don't have to lug around this huge jug of laundry detergent, and make a mess..They're simple, fast, and easy!
The product performs just as describes. I was delighted with the results. Thank you Tide!!! What a peas urge using this product. No Mess and great outcome
SO EASY TO USE! NO MEASURING, NO SPILLING, NO MESS! TIDE PODS ARE SO EASY TO USE..YOU JUST TOSS THEM IN!!!
I personally prefer liquid for the flexibility when I wash a smaller or larger load.
I love using the pods as they're easy to use and not messy. Tide is the only detergent that really gets my clothes clean without leaving any residue.
I liked the product because it was very easy to use. There was no need to measure and the were no spills, no mess and no drips from the dispenser.
Followed instructions, but at end of wash cycle, most of the product hadn't dissolved, blue goo all over the washer gasket, and had to run wash cycle again! I had high hopes, but was disappointed.
Brightens your clothes with a smell that lasts thru to the next wash!
Easy to use, no measuring and works great in my HE machine. I'm sold on Tide Pods. Still gives that fresh tide smell and great cleaning. No more liquid detergent for this guy!!!
Washing clothes has never been cleaner. No mess. My clothes look and smell great.
The convenience of using a small pod has helped me to turn the bothersome task of doing the laundry into a much easier experience.
I love how simple this is to use. Toss one and done! Our 6-year old can do his own laundry now without supervision and we know he'll always have the right amount of detergent!
Tide PODS are a great value for the number of PODS you can receive in one container.
Great product! Smells great and does what it is supposed to do.
I believe that purchasing this particular pod will save me money and that's always a plus!
I have never used it before, but this PODS is actually convenient to use and my laundry felt more clean afterwards.
This little pack of detergent goes a long way...awesome and smells wonderful.
No more wasting detergent, it makes clothes smell great, and my clothes seem cleaner then they were with my old detergent.
TIDE PODS IS GREAT AND EVERYTHING WHAT I NEED DETERGENT,STAIN REMOVER AND BRIGHTENER I DONT HAVE TO BE WORRY THAT IM MISSING SOMETHING EVERYTHING IS TOGETHER IN ONE POD
I was so thankful that I received a sample in the mail to try. I used one pod on a large load of laundry, and it came out clean and smelling fresh!
I received a sample of this product with a recent online order and was blown away. One pod cleaned a large load and took out some tough stains — including a set in wine stain! 5 stars!
I sometimes feel like more detergent is necessary & that the pod amount is too small.
I LOVE THIS PRODUCT, IT SO GREAT WITH MY CLOTHES. IT'S THE BEST
This product does exactly what it claims to do, it will remove any stains, all of them, my laundry comes out 100% clean every wash! I would never use anything else!!
It get's the job done without measuring the detergent; great for husbands! :)
It's a great product and easy to use, but it's a little expensive.
Too expensive and shouldn't need perfumery if it's doing its job. With liquid you can use a little or a little more without doubling or tripling the amount. Tried the pods recently. Wasn't impressed.
Tide is synonymous with clean. I really love the original scent
I love Tide Pods Original they are easy to use they are great if you have sensitive skin. Tide Pods Original is safe on my skin and never had any problems.
Tide pods are so easy to use and is the most convenient laundry product. Ever since this product came to market I never buy liquid detergent. No mixing or measuring is wonderful.
I fell in love with how convenient and effective it is. I put 5 pants, 5 tops into the machine and when they came out, they are totally clean and smells lovely.
I love this brand and the pods are concentrated and do not cause any mess when pouring since they are in a plastic coating that melts right away in the wash. Works just like regular Tide, only better!
I've used Tide LIQUID for many years. I received a sample of the Tide PODS in a package, and after trying it, realized I really enjoyed the mess-free, simple usage.
love tide packets they are easy to use and there is no drippy mess or left over liquid that you can not get out.
Tide Pods is a genius way to add detergent to your wash load. Love the fact that there's no detergent mess in my laundry room. Love it.
I FOUND THAT MY CLOTHES CAME QUITE CLEAN. i WOULD CONSIDER BUYING IT IF i HAD A COUPON BUT THE PRICE IS A LITTLE HIGH FOR MY BUDGET
THIS WAS MY FIRST TIME USING IT. THE CLOTHES CAME OUT EXTREMELY CLEAN AND SMELT FRESH AND NOW I WILL BE BUYING THIS FROM NOW ON!!!!!
Works great. No more liquid mess but it is a bit pricy. Price should be decreased or quantity should be more
It did a great job, but I don't know the price an entire package. That make me able to compare better to other brands.
This is an award winner in my book. It gives my laundry that fresh from the retail plastic packaging scent! Wow.
i have always used tide, the tide pods makes laundry day so much easier. no more measuring . i love that tide cameout with the tide pods.
This product makes doing laundry so quick and easy! Just drop a pod and you're done!
I have love the pods! They smell amazing and are so much easier to use. I have a stackable washer/dryer and it was always such a pain pouring the liquid into the machine.
I alway use pods now with my new HE washer. I bought All because the offered coupons more often and we're about $1.50 less expensive per package. I will say I do like Tide.
Tide PODS have worked so well for my family, we use them a lot. The smell of clean laundry really stays in the clothes!
Tide pods dont dissolve completely. They stick to my clothing & then harden. Ruined my clothes, I cant salvage them. So upset. I dislike this product.
I have not been able to locate the plastic wrapper the fluids were encased in. The thought that it is someplace inside a piece of my clothing disgusts me. I won't be buying this product.
Best detergent I have ever used. Everyone should at least try these once
Very convenient for folks with shaky or arthritic hands as well (no difficult package to open, no spilling detergent).
Tide products are my favorite product's for washing clothes this is all I need and use. I usually go purchase the tide pods. It makes the clothes cleaner.
I have been using Tide Pods for quite some time now. The pods are very easy to use. Just take one out of the bag and pop it into the washing machine. So much easier and cleaner than powder detergent!
I was so pleased with how well this product worked, even on tough stains. I will continue to purchase the Tide PODS.
Fantastic smell and all the items were so Clean and smelled very fresh.
I love how easy it is and his great it works! No more messy lids! Lol
This made the laundry smell awesome. I have switched.
It is well-contained and easy to use. I use liquid before but sometimes it gets messy. pod is quite small and clean. smells ok. and Tide brand is no debt good quality.
I used two last week - perfect. Went to use today nothing but a pool of goop in the package. They discintegrated!!!!! Stored in laundry room on a shelf Don't understand!!
By using this product, I don't need to carry a heavy laundry detergent to the laundry room.
The product is easy to use...no measuring, no spills, and it cleans very effectively.
Easy to use and extremely portable. Wish they offered unscented / hypoallergenic options.
I had no idea it would work so well. I would highly recommend it, and will purchase this in the future.
Convenient, but unless there is a huge coupon it's too expensive per load t bother.
Love that this is a fast, easy, and clean easy to use detergent!
This Product is exactly what I needed! I truly was surprised. I use for everything (and it shows) actually looked clean, smelled clean without perfumes or detergent odor, and felt good
Tide Pods Spring Meadow is just great, my clothes smell delightful and look cleaner than before
I received a free sample. These pods did a good job getting my laundry clean. I need to learn more about its environmental impact and test it on more heavily soiled clothes before giving five stars.
I had not realized Tide Pods could be used in the energy efficient front loading washers. How wonderful to see that "He" on the packaging.
I love the simplicity of using Tide Pods. I have always been a Tide user, but this has made it more convenient with less waste. Thank you!
I love the pod idea and the product. Very convenient and easy to use no mess. I do think that it is a bit pricy. That would be my only complaint.
The smallish pod seemed to clean the clothes well. I was a bit surprised. they looked brighter as well -- I only used it on my colors since I had only one pod to try.
This is a wonderful product. It get your clothes clean and smelling great. Not to mention how quick and easy it is to just load your washer and pop a pod! Pop a Pod and go!
Love it! Easy to use and very effective. I like the scent and cleaning action. But most importantly I know I am using the right amount without measuring. Life is easier with Tide Pods!
I simply LOVE the whole idea behind the pod for laundry detergent and with added stain remover what a concept! Simply WOW!
There are several different people who do laundry in my house and I was buying laundry detergent every time I went shopping. Now, not so often! No over-use or wasting with Tide Pods, they're great!
I LIKE MY REGULAR DETERGENT THANKS. THESE PODS ARE WRAPPED IN A PLASTIC I DO NOT WANT IN MY WASH MACHINE OR ON MY CLOTHES.
Tide Pods leave clothes feeling fresh and clean. The scent lasts all day and clothes are left feeling soft and colors aren't faded!
Convenient, simple to use, and a time saver- plus it smells great! Highly recommend.
Tide Pods perform very well as a convenient way of dispensing laundry detergent. Personally, I look for a pod type detergent that contains OxyClean and a mild scent, such as Fabreeze.
I love it when I get to use it is so much good! Thank you for tide pods make me happy and feel good
The Tide pods are easy to use, with no mess. Great product, with all in one.
I really like using the pods over liquid laundry detergent. The pods deliver a very nice clean laundry with great smell.
Works as well as regular tide without the mess. Only downfall is having to use two pods for large loads (all of my laundry loads). This makes it more expensive than the Tide liquid.
I only use Tide detergent, but I hesitate to use the pods. A couple of years back, I used ALL pods (given to me) and the leftover plastic stuck to the clothes in the washer. I guess I'll try this
Outside wrapper did not disintegrate in the wash, hardened to all of my clothes, and caused one of my shirts to rip. Emailed company about incident and no response! Will not be buying again!
I usually use a less expensive detergent. I used my sample on my load of white towels. It did a superb job of getting them clean. I love the convenience of a pod.
This product is very easy to use, just throw it in the washer and you're done. It's also a pretty good value for the amount of packs you get when you purchase the full product.
Tide pods are easy to use, disintegrate with no trace of powder and powerful enough where I only need 1 or 2 pods for my laundry loads in order to get my clothes clean and stain-free. love it!!
I love how they smell,I haven't seen them with the frebreze in them yet.
TIDE PODS ARE CONVIENIENT AND EASY TO USE. WE LOVE THEM. WE WOULD NOT EVEN CONSIDER BUYING ANYTHING ELSE. LAUNDRY COMES OUT FRESH AND CLEAN WITH GREAT SMELL AS WELL. VERY SATISFIED. THANK YOU TIDE.
TIDE WORKS AND SMELLS GREAT JUST WHAT I NEEDED CLEANS GREAT
These are great & so very convenient. Yet, there is a perception of going through your detergent more more quickly than bottled detergent. Regardless, I still always buy the pods.
THIS IS A GREAT PRODUCT.. IT IS ALSO GOOD FOR THE KIDS TO USE WHEN WASHING, AND IT TAKES AWAY THE EXCUSE OF, "I MIGHT DROP THE BOTTLE, MOM"! SO, BOTTOM LINE, EVERYONE CAN USE THIS PRODUCT.
Not only did my clothes come out clean, they smelled terrific!!
we are all looking for something to make laundry day less of a chore. I really enjoyed the scent of this product.
I will definitely purchase this product. Makes my clothes smell good and it lingers in y he drawers.
Smells wonderful and does a great job! I would most certainly recommend this product.
i highly recommend this product to my friends and family. its affordable, easy to use (no mass) and quality is just great
Love this product,I'm a truck driver an it works well for space cleans awesome.And it smells fresh.I can take in to Wash my clothes only what I need.I turn on other truckers on to these as well
I travel constantly and Tide Pods are perfect for doing laundry at hotels. They are portable, packable in a suitcase and effective. Please make a smaller size for half size loads.
lIKE I SAID, IT'S GREAT TO TAKE TO THE LAUNDRAMAT, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE OLD AND DON'T LIKE TO CARRY HEAVY STUFF. i LIKE THE BEADS, TOO. lIQUID CAN GET MESSY.
I like the freshness, and how clean my clothes are.
Seemed to work Ok but would have liked more of to sample
great for travel, but too expensive for every day.
Mess-free, small enough to fit in your purse, and fights tough stains- Tide PODS is the way to go!
Leaves blue marks on your clothes over and over again. The blue gel in the pod wrecks your lighter color clothes when it breaks open in the wash.
Cleaned and made my clothes smell fantastic! Really enjoyed the easiness of the product. Would recommend to anyone!
I USE IT, AND I LIKE HOVE ITS WORKS. AND MY FAMILY USE IT. iTS VERY EASY TO USE, BECAUSE WE HAVE LAUNDRY ON BASEMENT SO YOU CAN TAKE JUST PODS AND USE IT .
Smells great and laundry looks great!! Smelling fresh is always important
I think tide is an excellent product and the pods are no different. Its just a bit overpriced and the scent isn't as pleasant as Gain
I really liked the convenience of the pod - just throw it in and press start on your machine. There's no mess of slinging powder around and there wasn't any residue on my laundry.
Easy to use; no mess! Tide gets clothes clean and smells fresh.
Received this 1 sample of Tide original pod with purchased item. With using one pod could complete medium loaded as well as I expected.
no need to mess with liquids anymore, this pod is so easy, just drop it in and it cleans the entire load!
As a college student doing laundry at a laundromat far from my apartment these have been very useful Just pop a couple PODS into my pocket and I'm good to go.
The scent leaves your clothes smelling fresh. So easy to use. This product is exactly what I need for fresh smelling clothes, clean and bright and very easy to use.
I like the fact that you just have to throw one in the laundry and it has everything you need in it.
I enjoyed using this tide podl I especially like the spring meadow scent.
This is my 3rd container of the pods. The first 2 were great. About 2/3rds of this container is still attached to each other. When trying to get them apart, they burst, causing a mess.
THE ONLY ISSUE I HAVE WITH THESE ARE IF YOU USE THEM WITH A DELICATE COLD WASH THE LINER DOES NOT DISSOLVE COMPLETELY LIKE IT SLIMED THE CLOTHING
I LIKE IT WITH NO FLUID THAT MAY EASILY STAIN SOMEWHERE
GREAT PRODUCT, HAVE ALREADY RECOMMENDED THIS PRODUCT TO SEVERAL FAMILY MEMBERS.
I never even thought of purchasing tide pods, but after getting a sample and using is im sorry i didnt try sooner!!!
The pod would have been better without a scent. I do not like perfumed detergents. Easy to use.
To have detergent, stain remover & brightener in one small pod is genius. It's so easy to use and really gets your laundry clean, bright & smelling great?
Saves time! One pod provides a great amount of product.
This product is exactly what I needed! Really great product!
Loved it! This product leaves a nice scent after laudry is done, and it is safe to use on different colors.
We have well water and this product works well with the heavy deposits in the water. Also, keeps the colors in the fabrics from fading.
I thoroughly enjoy using Tide Pods for laundry - there is no measuring and no spilled detergent. They are convenient and do a great job cleaning my family's clothes.
It's so easy to just throw one in a washer. No mess from spilling detergent when trying to perfectly measure.
I found this product economical and convenient to use.
Clothing came out smelling great and looking even better
Loved using this as my 11 month old son loves helping me with washing the laundry and this is a whole lot less messier than using the liquid. All you do is throw the pod in and hit start.
HAVE ALWAYS LIKED THE RESULTS FROM TIDE, HOWEVER TENDS TO BE A LITTLE PRICEY COMPARED TO OTHER BRANDS.
I love the way my clothes feel and smell after each wash!!!
They have everything you need for a really clean wash. I love that there is no mess. Great product.
Easy to use...just tossed in my front loader and it dissolves in either hot or cold water.
I like the feeling of my cloths, sheets and towels after every wash.
I love how I can just fling a little pod into the washer and not have to worry about spillage or using too much detergent. Just be sure to keep it out of reach of small children.
The power of Tide in convenient pods. Reasonably priced.
TIDE pods it exceed my expectation and i will recommend it to friend and family.
i really like my sample of Tide Pods and will be my next laundry soap worked great smelled great and easy loved it.....This product is what i need
The Laundry shining On the spot came out everything is clean and smell gorgeous
I was pleasantly surprised. My clothes smelled cleaner than they did using Oxyclean and original Tide detergent.
I generally like the convenience and ease of pods, but I do not like the price. I sometimes buy pods for my daughters, who need them because they do not have a washer and dryer at their residence.
No worry about the splash of liquid detergent. Perfect if you do not have a washing machine at home.
Without pods we always seem to use too much of the liquid or powder soap so we spend more money on the product then necessary. With pods, it is designated so we don't have to worry about overuse.
Love the product but since I do not work and disbaled I can not afford to buy it. For people out there it is a good product.
I found the product to be very convenient in my hectic life. It was very refreshing and worked well.
Im so glad I tried this product. its not messy. the bottles would get dirty. Its light I take as much I need. no extra detergent and weight. love love love it
This is a great product! Cleaned my laundry so well and left it smelling so fresh!
Awesome product. Smells great and easy to use. No mess.
tried a previous sample and really enjoyed the smell it left on my clothes and my washer.
like the scent and convenience, does a good job of getting clothes clean
I love tide pods they clean my work clothes very well and no more measuring how much to use.
Received as a sample and loved the ease of it. We've only used Tide because of our family sensitive skin.
In 3 loads the Pod did not dissolve & stuck to clothes, ruining them. Yes, I put the Pod in the bottom of the tub & did not overload. Soaking in hot water did not fix it!
I really loved getting this as a sample and loved the ease of use and the smell...
This product has certainly made doing laundry on the road much easier for me. Instead of measuring out powdered detergent I just pop a few of these into a zip lock bag and into my suitcase they go.
I've seen this product in stores but never considered buying it. Having sampled it, I've now converted to using Tide PODS. No more bulky containers. No more spilled liquid detergent. Thanks Tide!
easy to use and really did a great job. saved money by not having to use non chlorine bleach as well.
Great product. the only downside for me is that I often do small loads of laundry so I think it would be costly. I intend to purchase in the spring for larger loads.
OMG!!! That's a miracle! That product is everything when it comes to baby clothes.
I was happy to receive a sample of Tide Pods! I used it right away and noticed after washing that the clothes were clean and fresh!
Very convenient. No waste because it is pre measured and you get concentrated product. You use less as a result.
It seems like lately, they are not dissolving. I have had to take out the slimmy, packaging of the pod itself from the water because it isn't dissolving all the way.
Something new, and I love it! Wish I got extra 2 of them!
I used my sample on my bedding, smells great on sheets!
this product makes cleaning laundry easy it is very convenient for me
Tide pods and downy have been my normal laundry aids for some time now.
I recieved my sample pod and tried it yesterday. I LOVE IT !!! So easy to use, don't have to lift a heavy liquid detergent container. It smells great and worked wonderful. Can't wait to purchase.
I enjoy using the Pods, much easier and less mess. Will continue to use them in the future.
Cliche as it sounds, my grandmother, my mother, and I all use Tide. Looking back it has always been there, from powder to liquid to now pods. I admit, I'm glad I'm on the pod end of the spectrum.
always uses same amount of detergent. no waste, saves money in the long run
love it I will definitely recommend it to all my friends.
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK PROCTER AND GAMBLE,SO FAR YOU HOLD THE TOP SPOT AS FAR AS LAUNDRY SUPPLIES AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED.
I received the Tide Pod in a package I purchased. Love it and will purchase! Highly recommend to others ... Thank you! A+++++
Was very pleasantly surprised with the way clothes turned out. No soapy residue on any of the dark clothes in my HE washer. I will definitely purchase the pods going forward.
I like this product. It takes the work out of guessing how much detergent to put in with the wash
Super easy to use just pop them in the washer, no measuring, no mess, fresh clean smell ...
Not good in a front loader. The pod does not dissolve completely and sticks to clothes where it then dries to a hard plastic in the dryer... ruining the shirt or towel it lands on.
Never thought the outcome would make such a diference. stains completely removed and scent is superb. Definately recommend.
Never bought before. Is definitely worth the cost. Clothes are visibly cleaner and brighter. I'm a convert
I love how easy it is to use the pod, and it's a lot less messy!
It is very awesome and it works fantastic! I am so excited have received this product. I hope to receive more of these samples in the future. Thanks!
I love Tide whether it is tide pods or liquid detergent. It removes any kind of stains very well.I love the smell. Brightens the clothes.Even in India It is No.1.I highly recommend this Tide pods.
Easy to use, clothes very clean and smells wonderful
I NOTICED MY CLOTHING WAS VISIBLY BRIGHTER THAN THE DETERGENT I USED TO USE, BUT THE SMELL CAN BE A BIT OVERPOWERING.
They are easy with no mess or measuring. I always had detergent dripping out of the spigot or down the side of the bottle. The colorful container fits neatly on the shelf above my washer.
The pods have cleaned my spouse's work clothes better than most products I've tried.
Love the smell the fact that it's quick and easy that I would trust our 11 year old to do laundry. The cost is more then I would consider paying.
My clothes smelled very good after being washed, I liked it.
A great product. Convenient and easy to use. No measuring and cleans well. Represents the Tide brand well.
I'm happy with tide. Excellent quality and very practical
this product is perfect for woman that are new in house keeping, I mean I don't know how much detergent use with certain amount of clothes, so I really liked it, because it has the perfect measure .
It takes the guess work of how much of detergent, stain remover and brighter should be used! The fresh laundry smell lasts for weeks.
Too bad PODS leave oil spots on our clothes. I'm going back to using liq. soap & hope stains come out. Very disappointed clothes are worse than before I washed them.
PERFECT INVENTION. NO MESS. NO SPILLING. CORRECT AMOUNT OF PRODUCT ALWAYS! I LOVE IT!
I can not believe how great my laundry looks and smells. I am definitely switching
I was skeptical at first, I mean how much easier could Tide PODS make doing laundry? Well the answer is SO MUCH EASIER! I love not having to worry about measuring and messy drips.
Barely enough detergent to wash a single load. The smell is weak, they dont dissolve easily and can leave stains on light colored clothing/linens. The concept is a good one, but needs work
This product works fine, but not spectacularly given its high price
I REALLY LIKED THIS POD. IT HAS EVERYTHING IN ONE. I NORMALLY BUY JUST LIQUID DETERGENT BUT THIS WAS REALLY CONVENIENT TO USE. I WILL INVEST IN THIS PRODUCT.
Loved this product. It worked well in a front loading machine. No more drippy, sticky detergent bottles! Thanks, Tide! I didn't think I could love your any more... but now, I do!
This product is easier and makes less mess than traditional liquid laundry detergent but still works great.
These adorable little pods clean like a dream! I was seduced by the colorful, tightly packed pre-measured pods, so I tried one. I was delighted with the result!
It smells good and is convenient to use! I think I would buy it once again for daily use~ and the price is fair~
Tide of any kind I love it. I never get enough of it and trying the new ones as they come out make me love tide more not just from the name but smell and how clean it get my clothes.
I love using any type of tide. It gets my clothes clean and it leaves them smelling great.
I found this product to be most convenient. No spills of powder or residue left on the clothes and no measuring! Even with dementia, my husband can still do laundry due to its ease of use. Thanks!
For me as a beginner in housekeeping, the tide pods is a product perfect, because i have some problems in the decision of how much detergent use depending the amount of clothes, so for me is perfect
I had no intent of trying. However, the sample changed my mind. It was great and my laundry smelled so good. It saves a step and works great. I liked it so much I went and bought some.
It leaves my wash bright & clean, just as regular powder Tide. It is a very respected brand of detergent which I trust will deliver.
The one small pack had me skeptical that it may not be enough or sufficiently do the job but my clothes came out clean and smelling good.
I used to get Gain but now tide is my go to detergent. It keeps my cloths fresh and new.
Just received a sample of this in the mail and wow!!! I'm super impressed and have switched from Gain to Tide Pods Spring Meadows. My clothes are extremely clean and smell amazing!
I tried it for the first time and I love it. Definitely will use it in the future.
Unfortunately these pods have left residue on my clothes with every load. I have to pay per w/d load so it's literally money down the drain. I want to love them, but at this point it's money wasted.
Definitely the product I needed, I tried it and I will buy it again! It is great
I have very sensitive skin and decided to try Tide as the brand I was using was not working well in my HE washer. Clothes are cleaner, washer works less, skin not irritated. Bravo Tide!
I dont like the smell, and i think it washes clothes as good as other products
I think these tide pods might be the go to detergent for me. Laundry was surprisingly fresh. Clothes had that brand new straight from the retail packaging scent!
It's really great to be able to just pop it into the washer. No spills, no messes and no measuring.
My clothes came out nice and clean and I liked the smell left behind. No problem with it dissolving completely and I think I will be buying more in the future!
This product worked great. The small wasn't to strong but i can still tell the difference between what is clean and what is not. i will recommend this product
I was so surprised to receive a sample of the Tide Pods original in a package I got,and I am so impressed. I would 10/10 recommend these to any of my friends and family!
I love Tide, it's a great cleaner. My clothes always turn out very clean. Now they smell great, too.
Love Tide pods. They light to carry, work well on my cloths and the spring meadow scent is lovely.
I don't think it works with my front loader, but I bought it on a trip and used in the hotel machine. Good, small packaging. Worked perfectly for what I needed.
My wife uses Tide detergent in liquid form but I like the ease of this product.
I really enjoyed the pods. However, my husband is a construction worker and I would have to use too many of these to get his laundry done. With the cost it is not economical for us.
I love pods because there is very little waste. They cost a little more but I save by not overusing detergent. If dirt is heavy I do use two pods. Tide free has no perfume!
TRIED VERY GOOD ONE simple and cent excellent no stain and very smooth fluid
This product is what I want to use for now I like the smell stay longer and feels fresh specially when I use for my sheets ! I'll try to buy this product next time !
Call me Old School but I prefer pouring the liquid detergent.
Very simple & easy to use. Just pop in the washer.
I used it for delicate clothing which I received from my favorite online store, Beyond The Rack. I'm very satisfy and I'm looking forward to purchased more!!! This Product is exactly what I need!!
This is the easiest product to use, no measuring, spilling, mess to clean required, and I feel like it's a better value because there's no waste!
Doesn't dissolve all the way and gets stuck to clothes. Ruined about half of my clothes!!!
This product is good smell nice and fresh and there is no mass.
Tide cleaned the clothes very well-got out most of the stains the kids got into.
Easy to use. No measuring! Clean fresh scent! Love it!
Convenient, easy to use, no mess from pouring a liquid and your laundry comes out super clean! Whats not to like??
Tide pods really made a difference in my laundry. I noticed a big change in the brightness and cleanliness of my family clothes. Definitely switching my brand to Tide!
The pods are very handy with no mess or fuss. Product smells great.
but if I didn't have the PODS I would use Tide liquid
Smells awesome and w/o softener my clothes felt good and the smell was still present. The clothes looked fresh and vibrant and no effects to my sensitive skin at all.
After using Tide Pods i noticed my whites and colors where more bright and looked real clean and smelled real fresh.
My family has always been tide users and would not think of buying anything different. It does what it says and gets clothes clean, fresh, and protects the colors.
I love Tide anything. It is the best detergent around. If they leave out the water why does it cost so much? If the cost was comparable to their bottled detergent I would definitely switch.
This product was introduced to me through a sample. It was a pretty cool thing for it to have three actions in one. Just wish they would have provided more than one sample per package.
I will Include tide in my shopping lists when next I shop
I love these pods! They clean and brighten, and my laundry smells clean!
I was surprised at the noticeable brightness that my clothes have when I use these. I really like Tide pods. Worth the money!
This is the right product for me since I never know the right amount of the detergent for my launder, until I used this product.
Easy ! PERFECT product to use! Easy to carry to laundry room !
it's definetatley better than other laundry power in cleanning clothing and pants
Tide pods make doing laundry so much easier. I've used Tide all my life.
Good quality product. Love the convenience and ease of use of the pods (no mess, just add additional pods for whatever laundry load size you are doing). I use the fragrance and dye free version daily.
I was skeptical about this tiny pod. I was wrong. Little amount of detergent works great enough to wash strong stain on my son's socks. I love this product!
Thank you for the sample! Everyone needs detergent!
Awesome product, with three dogs and a cat , our blankets get smelly , one wash and we are good again, cheaper brand had to wash several times to get them smelling better
Clean well and smell well. The color is also good and let me feel comfortable. Easy to use.
I'm a big guy with big clothes, so I was surprised when one little pod cleaned a huge load of my clothes in only one wash.
I have heard about Tide PODS before but I never really tried them because I just don't really think about laundry. I received a sample of this product and after using it, I fell in love with it!
I have a full size front load w/d in our apartment (rare in NY) and Tide Pods are easy to use and keep the w/d clean.
Smells very good easy to use............................................ Thanks
This product keeps all my clothes incredibly clean. I use it all the time. When I find it on sale, I always buy more than I need so that I don't ever run out.
Loved receiving this product it made my laundry smell good and feel great!
Will use it more often and will buy it every time I do shopping
I got one of these little Tide Pods in a package the other day, and I've used it in my last load of laundry. I like the fact that you're getting concentrated detergent and not a lot of water.
After using these tiny Tide Pods I was really impressed how clean my laundry was... I'd say just as clean as my normal Tide liquid detergent but the pods store better. Awesome product!
this product is perfect for what I need, but it is expensive
So excited about getting these samples, had to use it right away, the smell is so great, leaves your clothes and washing machine with a very fresh scent. Love it.
I use tide pods to clean my clothes and my baby's clothes its just perfect to remove the marks of everything I love iiitttt!!!!!
WOULD LIKE A FRAGNANCE FREE PRODUCT. THIS SMELLS GOOD BUT WOULD RATHER HAVE ONE WITHOUT A FRAGNANCE
The pods never fully dissolve even in hot water. Goo is stuck to my clothes, and once dried melts to them and has completely ruined multiple items.
I have used pods in the past and have generally been happy. They have left a blue stain on some loads.
Great Product great price exactly what I needed in my life so cool love it. would recommend it to any one who needs to clean up their lives.
I always used Tide powder. I bought these bc the store didn't have my powder. I LOVE them. My kids can do laundry without "oversoaping" but I can toss in 2 for big, sports-stinky loads!
This tide product eliminates the waste that is generally associated when you use either the liquid and/or soap powder.
My laundry came out very fresh scent however, did not totally removed big spots of stains(salad dressing) on my T- shirts. Bed linens came out bright color.
the only thing which would make this better would be if it were fragrance free
Great product. It works on the toughest dirt and stains. My son soccer uniforms are white, after games I put two pods in the washer, when the wash is done, they are lily white
Love this product and use it every day makes laundry so simple I look forward to doing my laundry now and my clothes come out so clean and really smell nice
Perfect to get clothes clean and smells fresh. Exact measurements every time with no mess.
I really like the convince of it. No mess to clean up.
I HAVE ALWAYS USED TIDE BEFORE ,BUT HAVE'NT TRIED THE PODS UNTIL I RECIEVED THE SAMPLE ,WILL DEFINATELY BE PURCHASING THEM FROM NOW ON . DOES THE JOB AND LOVELY FRAGRANCE ! THANK YOU FOR MY SAMPLE
LOVE LOVE LOVE MY TIDE PODS!!! I USE THEM ALL, ORIGINAL AND DIFFERENT SCENTS!!! GETS FILTHY CLOTHES CLEAN THE FIRST TIME!!! :)
The ease and convenience of Tide Pods can not be beat. No more measuring or spilled laundry soap, just throw it in and you are done. Clothes come out bright and fresh! 5 stars Tide- Thank you!
Usually more expensive than other detergents the bottom line. I needed detergents that Saved me time and hard strong cleaning power.
So easy to just toss in. No over measuring. I also like to take on business trips where we stay in condos with washing machines.
LAUNDRY TURNED OUT FRESH AND SOFT. EASY TO USE AND CONVENIENT.
I'm happy that I got it. It works just like I hoped it would. You should get some to if you have not.
worked well less waste than liquid, smell was very fresh after wash.
Did a great job on our stinky dog blankets! Will definitely buy in the future. Glad I got a sample to try it out...now it's worth the investment.
Washing clothes is an art. And I get frustrated when I do not get a good wash. And Tide Pods gave that to me.
I really didn't expect it to work very well so I was surprised at how well it did clean the laundry. Will definitely recommend it.
It's easy to use and very easy to transport when I have to travel.
As far as liquid detergents go, Tide is the best. The PODS are very convenient.
The Tide PODS product did a good job on my laundry, but pods are just too expensive. I am capable of pouring and measuring detergent so the "ease" of the product is irrelevant to me..
The pod didn't dissolve entirely and ruined the fabric
Product made my whites very clean and bright and colors were not digny looking
Really convenient to use! There's no measuring or mess. You just pop it in and you're done!
My kids are teenagers and do their own laundry. I don't have to worry that they will put too much detergent in my front loading machine.
This Product is exactly what I needed in laundry detergent it Remover Stain
Love how easy it is to just throw a pod in with my wash instead of dealing with messy liquid detergents. Makes my already crazy life much less crazy (and messy).
This product is simply amazing! Left my sheets soft and smelling great!
ONE LESS THING TO DO IN THE LAUNDRY ROOM. MEASURE. YUK NO FUSS, GETS THE JOB DONE. CLEAN CLOTHES, WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT FROM A LAUNDRY DETERGENT? FOLD YOUR CLOTHES FOR YOU??
I love my Tide Pods. They make doing laundry so much easier. Just toss one in and you are ready to go. They do a good job of getting stains out, too.
I like the product but wish it were a little less expensive.
I love that this product is easy to use and doesn't make a mess!
I'VE USED THE TIDE PODS BEFORE THEY WORK GREAT ON STAINS AND SMELLY CLOTHES
This just an awesome product. It gives good wash with very less effort and less amount. I am completely satisfied with this product.
I never thought anything could break me away from liquid laundry detergent but I have now found it! The Pod was so easy and tool away all the drippy mess left by the liquid. I'm sold!
Easy to use and confident it is quality product that will clean.
Great Product! It is perfect for a busy working family. I can always count on Tide PODS to do there job while I am doing mine.
AFTER THE FIRST TRY, I'M GONNA SAY I'M SO ENJOY IN LAUNDRY NOW! THE POD IS VERY CONVENIENCE AND THE PACKAGE IS CUTE! TRUST ME YOU WILL LOVE IT.
I just love this product. It works great and smells good. Thanks, Jacki
Tide Pods are exactly what I need to get the laundry quickly and cleanly! With 2 kids in college, it makes getting the laundry that much faster without measuring and coming out clean is perfect!
VERY GOOD FOR WASHING WITH LESS WORK IN APPLICATION
I always use this product for my work clothing. It get my dirt cloth cleaner than other products.
The Tide PODS work as well as Tide liquid, except I don't have to tote a heavy bottle down to the laundry room along with my clothes. I just bring as many as I need! They are also great for travel.
Love the single pacs. The kids don't waste detergent and the single pacs are easy to take on the road
Neat & tidy easy to use no measuring or messes good clean smell
i wanted to love it since i love tide, but whatever the blue part of the pod is it has stained my sheets and some of my light clothes with blue! so disappointed!
This is so convenient--just throw the pod into the machine, fill with clothes, and off you go.
I enjoy using Tide pods. They are easy to use, just throw it in. They are also fast, no measuring needed. Any one can use the pods. I have used the pods for about a year now.
This is a very easy to use product that does the job!
My family always use this product, and this product is exactly what I needed!
Its amazing how well these little things work! I purchased the 72ct. and it works out to about 25 cents per load. Clothes come out clean, and smell great!
Does a great job, since it is an "all-in-one product. No pretreating, does brighten my load and gets it very clean. Saves money since I won't have to buy stain removers.
Good one I will buy it and will recommend to my friends as well
This product is amazing, I love it because I just use the correct amount therefore more money for more shoes.
I liked the fact that it was compact, easy to use and my clothes came out clean the first time.
This product is exactly what I needed! It is awesome!
Surprisingly economical. Great scent. Less mess. There are sometimes pinkish spots on my clothes, but they go away with the next wash.
I love that these little guys! They are fun to use and throw in the laundry, and clean super well!
GREAT PRODUCT, GOOD RESULTS WITH LAUNDRY AND SAVES TIME.
Pods laundry detergent I love it will use it every day. I love the easy way to put it in the machine
My husband mentioned that when I started using the Pods the clothes had a much fresher smell to them.
Easy to just toss and go. I am often tempted to put too much in the machine. The detergent works very well also. I use them on stains by rubbing directly to the spot which works amazingly well!
I liked the cleaning and convenience of PODS, a little on the expensive side but worth the convenience.
I love the convenience and no measuring out (and spilling) liquids. Love the fresh scent it gives my bedding and clothes!
I simply love this product! My family clothes get so clean and they smell so, so fresh! Please do not discontinue this product.
I like this kind of detergent. It's easy to take out and good to use.
This product can control the amount of dergent each time. Really efficient!
They make doing the laundry much simpler. I know my clothes will get clean.
This Product is exactly what I needed, but I hope it can be more cheaper
I love how easy the Pods are to use. I don't like how much they cost.
i got the sample, just use half of the pack to wash around 10 clothes (mainly made by cotton). and it just did a great job. make every clothes clean. but it is a little too fragrant.
I hate pouring detergent and these individual pods make doing laundry easier and faster ... and Tide continues to outperform all other brands by keeping my clothes looking brand new!
I just love how easy it is to pop a tablet into my washing machine
I have been using Tide Pods since they came out on the market. I love how easy they are to use and how clean they make my clothes.
It cleans like I expect tide products to be. will definitely get a big package!
product is perfect! exactly what we needed, no stains left and easy to use!! thanks!
It makes my life more Easier to not have to mess around with liquid detergent , all I have to do is pop it in , and take out fresh clean clothes
I would buy Tide more often than I do if it was more affordable. It works great and smells good.
Does the job neatly without mess or measuring. Clothes are clean and smell fresh.
Great product. Highly recommended. Make doing laundry so much easier.
Much easier than pouring detergent from heavy containers. Plus no need to recycle.
This Product is exactly what I needed!Its very good.
I enjoyed the ease of use grab one and go. This is very useful in comparing to large bulky bottles which can sometimes spill never can gauge amount to use in the wash Great product
I like the scent and the texture of cloths after using it.
What I like most about this product is that it is totally mess free. My clothes came out clean and fresh with minimum effort. I'm glad I was able to try this product!
This product is exactly what I needed, I recommend you to buy it.
so simple to do laundry, just pop this in the wash
I tried it on towels that I used for my cat and old towels. Not only got them clean, but they came out smelling great. It's not easy to get rid of the "cat" odor, so I was very pleased.
Did a great job on my clothes, but too pricey for my budget.
This is a grate product and price is good considering the quality. Remember you get what you pay for but with this product you get more.
Several pods stuck together and when I tried to separate them they burst, squirting me and the counter! Considering their price, I don't want to waste even one
The Tide pod is convenient but pricy per load compared to the liquid detergent. Tide cleans well and smells great!
The product is measured out exactly and you do not have to mess with the drippy measuring cup with the normal bottles of detergent. I like it.
I've seen this product but wasn't sure it was compatible with HE machines. Tried it ... it worked fine.
EASY TO USE COMPACT AND MEASURED IN THE RIGHT AMOUNTS
Have always used Tide products and this is by far my favorite
It was very nice of you to send this sample. Tide Pods are all I use and I have tried other scents besides the original that I really like as well. Thank you!
I've been using this product for 2 months now. They are so convenient and work very good. Just drop in the washer! So easy! I like the smell too.
GREAT PRODUCT AND VERY EASY TO USE, WILL NOT GO BACK TO LIQUID!!!!!!
easier to use than liquid soaps, will keep on using it
I love the convenience of the pod. It cleaned the clothes well and made them smell wonderful!
A very pleasant fragrant pod. Smells exactly the way my clean home is supposed to smell. Does its work perfectly. Removes minor stains.
This product perfect! Exactly what I needed! I ike it.
This product is easier to use and good at effect. I like it very much
Great smell and get dirtiest clothes clean. i would definitely recommend to friends family and strangers
This product is exactly what I needed!! Its a great stain remover also.
I will be looking for this product at my store to give it a good trial.
I love the great smell that it brings to my clothes.
It has everything like scent, cleansing, and good value
So easy to use and makes clothes look and smell great!
JUST HAD ROTATOR CUFF SURGERY AND THE PODS ARE PERFECT FOR DOING LAUNDRY LIGHT NO NEED TO MEASURE
The convenience is great and you have no messy measuring cups and residue.
the product is easy to use and i guess makes the laundry space less messy
Pods are pricey, but make doing the laundry very easy. No messy powder or liquid to deal with anymore.
I will be taking the Tide Pod on our next cruise. They are very light, take up very little room in a suitcase, and if you are doing laundry on a ship it is a great idea to bring these along!
My clothes come out clean an smelling great! An the pods make everything so much easier and no more messy detergent!
The pods are easy and convenient to use. No spills, no wasting of detergent. I like the fact that it is already "portioned".
This product smells good. And I have heard about it before but have no chance to try it.
It made my clothes nice and clean. I defitnely will be buying this product again..
I used pods before, its easy and comfortable to use, especially if the laundry is outside the apartment/room. No spills or other mess.
I love them! You can smell the freshness in your clothes, and see the cleanliness. A lil to pricey tho.
Love Tide Pods Original. I especially like that there's no dripping, no powder to deal with....the pods are "clean" and easy to use.
This product. What I need because. It's taken. Out stained. In my clothes
I used the sample, and it cleaned well, but I found the fragrance a bit overwhelming. I find this to be a cost prohibitive product.
GREAT PRODUCT EXPENSIVE TO BUY MONTHLY , BUT OK FOR EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE
I LOVE THE CONCENTRATED FORMULA AND THE LACK OF MESS.
thank you but cannot aford worked good love the smell
this is a great product,a finishing touch on my laundry!
The PODS are "neat" to use, no spillage...they take up a lot less shelf space and clean remarkablely well. A triple win, win, win :-)!!
Love tide but have little space to store stuff. This is perfect
i liked getting this product but I use Tide to pour on stains in my laundry so I would have to buy both types and that would be very expensive
My family goes camping freauently and we always bring Tide PODS with us. It's convenient for packing and taking on the go.
Like tide products but not the pods because of the plastic coating, which does not dissolve.
Great product. Convenient and cleans well. Highly recommend.
I have used tide Pods before. I love them but I feel that they are pricey.
It's easier and even better to store since it does not take up much space. What's even better its not messy!
This product is exactly what I need .I use it alot
Unfortunately the first time I used it was on my sheets and now they are stained. It looks like someone put some dark blue die into the wash with them.
My clothes have never felt better and the colors are so vibrant. Having little ones and laundry in the basement means short cuts are nice and just being able to toss and go saves the day.
Makes my clothes very clean and smell amazing this product is the only kind that doesn't break my husband out
Son had me try. Now I just love them. Telling whole family about them.
I love tide pods!! They are easy to use, do an amazing job at cleaning my clothes and leave a light fresh scent, very pleased that tide came out with pods in the original scent keep these around!!
unfortunately I am not going to be purchasing again. the pods do not dissolve all the way leaving a residue in my detergent compartment
Tide pods. Very easy to use, nice scent. I recommend using two pods per wash. I received these products complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes."
Tide is my favorite laundry detergent and I was exited to try Tide Pods. It is very easy to use, it has a light scent, and is not messy at all. This product is perfect for a quick wash since detergent, stain remover and softener is in one little pod. For a bigger wash i would strongly recommend adding 2. P.S. I received this product for testing from Influenster. All opinions are my own
I'm a college student living in a dorm, and trudging up and down three flights of stairs with a hamper of clothes is awful when you're lugging a big bottle of detergent as well. I just bought Tide Pods in the Spring Meadow scent, and so far they've been a life saver. You just bring one or two down to the laundry room. The only problem I've had is that once (just once) the pods left a bit of gunk on a sweater of mine, but that was quickly solved when i washed it a second time. The trick with these is to avoid overloading, otherwise obviously there's going to be a stain on your clothes, because they don't dissolve. I like them a lot, will definitely be purchasing again.
It is amazing how all my clothes shine after every washed. I will definitely recommend Tide to all my friends
I have previously used tide pods with no issues, but recently, this has not been the case. When I had city water, the pods worked like a dream - now that I am on a well, its more like a nightmare. Loads of all sizes come out with melted in pod residue. I have tried reducing my load size (washed a load of three towels on a full load size), to no avail. I suspect it is my well water that is causing issues with the disintegration of the pod. Going back to liquid detergent ASAP.
I used the Tide Pods to do my laundry. I have never had a problem with them before, but the last couple of times I have done my laundry, the plastic that surrounds the detergent has melted into my clothes. It has completely ruined three of my shirts and damaged many more. I will not be buying these anymore.
I have been using Tide pods for about 8 months and I love the concept-- BUT I've been noticing that my white things are now a silver gray color and my husband even remarked that his socks look a little blueish!!! I am returning the 2 bags I have and will look for something without that pretty blue and orange color, and see if I can salvage my laundry.
It was at first really awesome because it was easy to use, but then after using them for all semester, more often than not my clothes have been RUINED by Tide Pods! I thought at first it was a problem with my college's laundry machines, but it's because the Tide Pods don't dissolve quick enough and then gunk up on my clothes like dried gum and ruin them! So many cute clothes ruined! It's really quite unfortunate because it would seem like a great and easy way to wash your clothes, but it's really only a great and easy way to ruin them.
When it comes to laundry detergent I only use the Tide brand. Typically I use liquid Tide, but thought I would try the Tide pods. Even when following the directions of how to use the Tide pods, I have had many items of clothes ruined because of this product. While I've had the previously mentioned purple stains, the most frequent happening is the outer plastic melting into clumps on the clothing. Overall, stick to the liquid!
I have refused to buy Tide Pods again as I have had two instances where they have not dissolved all the way and left a purple stain and plastic stuck to two different shirts (one was white!). I have been able to get it dissolved out of the second shirt after being able to figure out what it was but I am not sure I'll be able to get it out of the first shirt since it has been a little while. I will be trying as soon as I'm done leaving this review. I was looking for an easier way to do laundry without having to lift the heavy bottles of liquid, and while this is only twice in 6-7 months of using them, it is not easier when having to re-rinse clothing to get the melted Pod to completely dissolve.
I thought Tide Pods were great until I did my most recent load of laundry and discovered that the Tide Pod had melted all over 2 of my work shirts, ruining them. The pod left hardened white stains from the coating of the pod on the shirts that will not come off. They were my favorite shirts and I was very upset that they were ruined. I'm going back to regular laundry detergent immediately. The pods are horrible. I won't risk ruining my clothes again.
I've used the pods for a while now, and liked them a lot. But the last time I bought them there was evidently some broken ones in the bottom which caused the others to get wet and disintegrate. The previous times I had bought a smaller amount. Now I know not to buy the 72 pack of pods again. It's evidently too heavy. I hate having lost $18.00 finding this out. But I love the idea of them.
This shouldn't even be recommended for side-loaders simply because it takes too long to dissolve. Worked okay for my top-loader on the 2nd try after I let it dissolve in the full drum of water before dropping clothes in and starting the rest of the wash cycle. Took about 8 to 10 minutes to start breaking down before the water becomes diluted with it. Hope that helps for those stuck with the product like me.
I have used Tide for years and was delighted to try the Tide pods. I thought I was using them successfully until I started to notice lavender/blue splotches on my husband's white undershirts. Eventually, my whites have become stained also. I realize now that this is a Tide Pod problem. I used them correctly and any efforts of remediation (using bleach, re-washing, etc., etc.) do not work as the clothes have been washed AND dried and those stains are SET. Thanks for nothing, Tide. I will be using other detergents from now on.
Recently tried Tide Pods because they seemed like a great idea and I have always liked Tide products. Our $200 Sheex sheets came out with a big stain and plastic stuck to them, but I blamed it on my husband. Over the next couple of weeks we both did some loads of laundry and then when wearing the clothes noticed plastic stuck to them. Not even considering that it might be the Pods, we looked inside the washer and dryer trying to figure out where the plastic was coming from and what we might have left in a pocket. Finally we went back to our old detergent and no more plastic. We have ruined several items of clothing, including a new expensive shirt.. So now I do a google search. I am so disappointed and furious that this is a known problem and that P&G has continued to market this product without warnings and without fixing the issue.
I have always used tide. Recently tried the pods and have been greatly disappointed. blue spots all over white t shirts and other whites.
I am a long time Tide user. I usually use Tide liquid original scent for HE washers. I tried the Pods and at first they were great. No drips, easy to use and the same tide clean. After a few weeks my 7 year old broke out in a bad Eczema rash all over his shorts area, armpits and belly. He's had Eczema in the past but we've had it under control for a few years and it was never this bad. After some detective work and elimination I realized it was the pods. I will use Liquid Tide again but not until his rash is gone. For now it's organic dye free scent free stuff. Just wanted to let other mom's and everyone know that the Pods are not for sensitive skin.
I tried the Tide pods because Tide powder, which I would normally use, is no longer available. Like many others have pointed out, this product is the absolute worst. As others have noted, the pods do not always dissolve completely. And before someone from P&G customer service replies to ask, the answer is yes I do put the pods in the drum first and NO the machine is not overloaded! Nonetheless, I still end up with purple blotches on my clothes. Before, whenever I did a load of laundry, I always programmed an extra rinse cycle. However, since I've been using the pods I find it necessary to add an extra, extra rinse cycle - and even that does not always work. Ocassionally, I still end up with purple blotches from the undissolved pod. Having to add an extra, extra rinse is obviously a complete waste of energy and water, and it's a step I should not have to take! The idea of the pods is commendable however execution is sorely lacking. Designers need to go back to the drawing board and find a better dissolving material to encapsulate the detergent. I guess I'll have to start using the liquid from now on.
I just did a load of lights and as I emptied the dryer folding everything I found the pod completely intact. I put it in the washing machine first, it was a large but not an oversized load of light weight items. I guess I'm really lucky it didn't open in the dryer, but now I have very nicely folded dirty clothes I have to wash again. I love the concept but I won't buy again.
I've been a Tide user for many years so I assumed the Pods would do a great job with less work. Now my whites have wide blue streaks in them, hubby's shirts have streaks or stains that I can't remove. I do read the directions and put the pods in the machine first. I will have to discard the rest of the Pods I'm sorry to say.
Absolutely hate this product! I was done washing my clothes so I put them in the dryer. When I took them out I noticed a hard light purple spot on my clothes. I soon realized that it was what was left of the pod. It apartently did not disolve all the way when they were getting washed so when I dried my clothes they were little hard spot on multiple clothing. So I washed them again with a liquid digergant from a different brand, and it turned out great! No hard spots and I didn't have to wash my clothes twice. I would not recommend this product to anyone.
I am so upset this pod ruined a TON of my family's clothing before I realized this was actually the culprit! I have had to throw out multiple pieces, some that were worn once!!!!, because of big bleach spots. :( :( :( I have a brand new HE washer machine, so I know it is really the product. I switched back to liquid detergent and haven't had a problem since.
We have been washing clothes for decades and have used Tide exclusively for all of these years. We recently switched to Tide Pods and immediately noticed bluish/purple stains appearing on clothes, bed sheets, and wash cloths. The stains seem to be particularly bad in the perspiration area of shirts. Numerous clothes have been ruined. The Pods are always put in first, we never overload the machine, and the washers are less than two years old. There is a problem!
I used Tide Pods as a sophomore in college and I also used them as a freshman. Last year, they did alright, but occasionally left a gooey/sticky mess on my clothes from the plastic pod. This year, they've dyed blue splotches in many of my favorite clothes (luckily it washed out with warm water and stain remover). As I write this, at least five of my clothes are being re-washed for the third time this semester. I'm switching ASAP to a different brand.
I bought the Pods because they seem faster and cleaner. I just bought a new washer the front loader Duet. For some reason the pod is exploding on our clothes. Every few loads I see purple or sticky stuff on our clothes. I really like the idea of the pods I just don't feel like the new batch I bought is dissolving as well as it used to in my old washer. I don't know if I can keep using them if this keeps happening. Pods are a GREAT concept. I just wish they dissolved more efficiently.
This product has a problem. It leaves blue stains on white or lightly colored (ex.; light yellow) and other garments. And subsequent washing with Tide Pods or Tide detergent doesn't resolve the stain. After decades of using only Tide I will be looking for another detergent. I really hope you can get this problem solved.
Use Tide Pods HE as soon as they came out. At first I did not use it correctly, and learned how to use it correctly when I called Tide. They kindly educated me. Learned to place the pod at the bottom of the tub and towards the front, UNDER the clothes. Never had a problem after that. Use it in conjunction with Tide Liquid HE directly on stains as soon as I discover a stain. By the time I do laundry, the Tide Liquid HE would be dry. Then I used Tide Pods HE in the laundry room and Laundromat. Love it because it does not make a mess. They are easy to transport in a plastic bag. If kept around for a long time, the white part becomes dark, but it still works just as well. Know of no other brand that works as well!
I have been a Tide user forever. Anytime I try a brand I am disappointed. I love the idea of the Tide pods for making the laundry one tiny bit easier. I started noticing purple stains on my husbands white t-shirts (just about the only white clothes in my household). I could not figure out what he was doing to get these stains. And then I realized they weren’t on the shirts BEFORE I washed them and it occurred to me that it’s from the Pods. I do everything “right”... Pod in first, not overloading at all, not using delicate, cycle runs a full-length, wash in warm, etc. But still we get stains every time on whatever shirt happened to be sitting on top of the pod. Very disappointing. Fortunately for me these are all undershirts, so not visible. And the stain does eventually wash out on it’s own. No more pods for me. I’m giving the Gain pods a try right now, but I’m guessing Tide liquid will be back on my list. These should NOT be used for whites of any kind.
I was shocked how great these pods work. I normally used Tide Free liquid but had to add things where stains were present. These Tide Pods got ALL problem stains out the first time! Amazing is what I call these Pods just try them you'll see............
This is an awful product - Stained and ruined my favorite white shirt - Not the first time . Never buy !!!!!!!!!
I too have had issues with blue staining in my laundry while using the Tide Pods. After reading all of the negative reviews, when can we expect a solution. How about remove the blue dye in the product?
I am tired of seeing people being told that if instructions are followed as directed, the pods will dissolve completely. This is not true. I've had a sticky residue "lump" left on my clothes at least three times, (doesn't come off, btw) and now my favorite white shorts are stained with a blue streak. There are times I have to fill the washer completely and the pod still doesn't dissolve, and then I have to run it with no clothes in for a minute to get the pods to pop. Then I have to add the clothes, pushing them down into the water. FAR from convenient! It's sad when you have to check your clothes completely when they come out of the washer to make sure you don't set the stains by putting them directly into the dryer. And the sticky lump will also remain on your clothes after the dryer. Again...how is this more convenient?
Tide Pods turn all my white arm pits purple and cannot remove them. Tried bleach, peroxide.
I have used Tide product for a while but most recently have switched to the PODS. HUGE mistake!!! They have destroyed bath towels and clothing by leaving a blue/purple stain on my clothing. You do not notice on dark clothing but can not hide it on light colours. I will not by this product again.
Have used this product for months with great results but lately the pods are not fully dissolving and have left plastic residue on my clothes. This residue is impossible to remove. I will have to stop using the pods until they correct this issue.
I normally buy liquid Tide with no perfume, but I thought I'd try these new pods. Since I could not find unscented pods, I tried one of the scented ones. Big mistake. What a horrible cheap smell! It permeates the whole house, and I had to re-wash my clothes with other detergent to get rid of the smell. I ended up throwing away the rest of the pods after the first wash. I know these things are being sold because enough people buy them, but I can't imagine walking around smelling like this. Needless to say, I'll never buy this again unless unscented type is offered.
used Tide pods for 3 reasons, less waste, convenience, good cleaning record. NO LONGER THE CASE! I followed the directions and ruined so many clothes I could scream. a brand new uniform is RUINED as well as a new T and some other clothes. RUINED with PURPLE/BLUE STAINS. and I didn't notice them until they were dry and nothing is taking the stains out.
I have always used tide laundry detergent because I Love it. I decided to try the tide pods 90 pac. I used them and noticed that it didn't dissolve all the way so i re washed my laundry and it was fine. The next load i did i made sure i put in less laundry thinking that would help, but again it didn't dissolve all the way leaving blue and white slimy detergent and plastic on my clothes. I won't ever use tide pods again. I would really like to be reimbursed so I can buy regular detergent that won't ruin my laundry!!!!!
Tide pods work great if you are not a) using an he machine, while also b) washing larger pieces of fabric, like sheets, robes, blankets, etc. The pods will become tangled in the fabric and fail to dissolve adequately, but you won't notice until after you've already dried your clothes and the undissolved plastic/detergent has already melted into and/or stained your clothes. And yes, this happens even if you place the pod in the bottom before the clothes, put an appropriate amount of clothes in the machine, wash the load on the appropriate setting for the load...in other words, actually follow the directions on the packaging (which also plainly states they dissolve in all temps- guess that's not true). Brand new sheets, a blanket, and a favorite shirt ruined. Thanks.
Pods DO NOT Dissolve. 1st time user and last time. Our first use and all our laundry is BLUE with sticky residue...very disappointed.
I have used a store brand of pod and had no problem. Tide has always been a strong, effective detergent that I grew up with. Thought I would try the Tide Pods. The 1st load, my quilt came out of the dryer with areas that were stuck together w/ blue stuff. The 2nd was cotton underwear, had a pair that again was stuck together with something blue that had melted onto it. The plastic POD did not full dissolve,melting onto the garment/quilt. I could pull the quilt apart, but the underwear were ruined. I have this very large container of PODS that I will need to pre-dissolve in a cup prior to use in my front loading washer. I will not buy the Tide Pods again, but will by the store brand.
I always use tide liquid and never have a problem, but I bought the tide pods because I was moving and knew I needed to travel with detergent.. anyways my boyfriend and I both did laundry on separate occasions and both times left with stains. I, of course, thought he used them wrong and I did a load of clothes a week later and ruined half of our things... I hate this product and will never use it again. id rather pay and use the liquid than have more of my nice expensive work clothes ruined. I honestly do not think I will ever use tide again. Don't buy these people, you will regret it.
I love tide and it has been great with our cloths for years. I got tired of my boys wasting the detergent so I bout the pods. At first it worked great, then after a few times washing, I noticed blue stains under the armpits of all our white cloths. Then I noticed when we use the boot pods...we now have Pink tinted whites all over! all of my sons teeshirts are ruined and I have tried baking soda and other stain removers with out bleach to get the stain off. Nothing works. I though I was alone in this situation, however I now see there are many complaints. Help!
I been trying out these pods thinking they save me the mess of the liquid. But twice now i have these glue stains on my clothes. First time i thought it could've been something else but now i know its the pod. i still have a full bag and out of money which we don't have.
Tonight I reached in to the Tide container to pull out a Pod for a load of laundry I was about to start and I found a gooey, sticky mess. Apparently, some of the Pods had melted and leaked. If that wasn't enough, the remaining Pods are all stuck together. There is no way I'm going to get them apart without breaking more. My laundry room is in the basement which is the coolest area in my house and it's only May. Can't imagine what I would find in August. Luckily, I won't be buying them again so I won't be finding out.
I've used other brands and had spots on my clothes and had to rehash to remove them. I thought I would pay a little more for the Tide brand with hopes to not waste so much water. I was wrong! Nt only did I have to rehash clothes that were spotted, also I've had 3 loads I couldn't save due to the pods not dissolving and sticking like super glue. My clothes were stuck together and wouldn't come apart. I was able to run very hot water over some to unstick them and them had to run another cycle to wash it all out. However, I just washed a new set of King size luxury Egyptian cotton sheet set and the same thing happened again! I tried to separate the material but again it was like glue and TORE my NEW sheet! I'll NEVER RECOMMEND OR USE AGAIN!!! Furious!
I really like the pods, they clean well, and leave a great scent on the clothes. I have been using the pods for about 6 months. I have recently noticed white streaks on T-shirts, towels and sheets. They are permanent and look like bleach marks. I never use bleach as I am on a well/septic system. I am very careful to follow instructions to avoid this sort of damage to garments. I see other reviews mention purple or blue marks, although I did not read every review to see if anyone else has experienced the white markings.
I got these, wanting to simplify my laundry room, having a pretreater, oxi, and tide pods, but its not meant to be. I read the instructions, and followed them to a T. My laundry came out with the casing fused to my husbands clothes, and with blue dye all over. I use soft water, and a great washing machine, so what gives? I have resorted to pre-dissolving my "easy and simple" pods before I add them to the wash. I am doing this, just so I don't waste them. I am really unhappy, as other tide, especially Tide Ultra white and bright with bleach was rated really well. I am just so upset that all my husbands work close were destroyed. If this is happening to you, I advise you to get ride of them, or dissolve them immediately before use. Really shocked that this is a tide product.
I always wash in warm water, and these have left stains on some of my clothes twice. At first I thought something was left behind in a pocket, but the 2nd time I knew it was the pods. At first I thought they were ruined, but simply washing them again removes the stain. I think the blue part must not be dissolving quick enough in some of the packets. This is my 3rd box of Pods, and its only happened twice. Still...It was really unnerving when it happened.
I wash my clothes at a laundromat since I live in NYC. It was nice to not have to lug a big bottle of detergent with me along with a big bag of clothes! I first used it in cold water and got the same results as everyone else....gobs and purple stains. I realized I could not use them in a cold water wash do decided to then only use them for hot water and the SAME thing happened! I would then go home and try to hand wash these gobs and stains out which was a pain to go over every piece of clothing that you just washed! Of course I would miss a few and the gobs then dried and became crusty and hard. I don't understand Tide's CUSTOMER SERVICE. SO MANY people have complained on this site and they just keep sending the same automated/pre-written response instead of acknowledging that the might actually be an issue! I have used TIDE for years and my mother used to use TIDE as well but I am so disappointed that I may switch brands all together just out of principle!
My recommendation should really read yes AND no! I have used the Tide Pods now for quite a while, as they are very convenient and seem to do a great job when using warm water. Unfortunately, when using them in cold water loads (I have a two year old Whirlpool front loader), I am getting a sticky blue mess/residue on many of my items. It has happened with towels, sheets and basic clothing and it's inconvenient, to say the least. It also "gunks up" my washer well by the door with the same sticky substance. I find it a pain to have to have liquid detergent on hand for some loads and these Pods for others, so I may stop buying them altogether. Too bad because they do clean the clothing and linens well...when they work and they're so easy. Please fix this, Proctor & Gamble!
As many others, I used the Pods and my clothes came out of the washer with purple gunk that left stains. Stain remover and soaking has not helped. I see from this site that many other have had the same experience. Response to the reviews say that Tide is confident that the fully dissolve...hmmm. I think I'll use something else. Maybe I'll try again if Tide changes the formula.
Bought 2 containers of the Tide pods at Sams Club. The product seemed like a great idea and is simple to use but unfortunately when I wash whites many items come out with blue-purple stains. The stains are difficult to remove but can be done if soaked with stain remover. I always place the pod in first before the laundry and never overload but this always happens when I wash white clothes. Very frustrating! Will likely go back to liquid detergent or try other brands.
Just like everyone else, I have stained clothes and sticky goop in the door gasket of my front loading washer. A friend stayed for a weekend recently and I washed his white oxford shirt with Tide Pods and it was stained purple and the stains could not be removed even when bleached. I was embarrassed. Since then I have switched to All Free & Clear Pods. There is no dye and they are half the price of Tide Pods. I will never use Tide Pods again.
Wish I could insert the pictures I took of my purple stained clothes, left behind pod gel in my machine and broken pods (about 6) in a newly opened canister. You really need to improve this product or else I will need to switch brands!
I have been using pods in my HD washer for over a year however recently I have noticed that there some purple discoloration in my white cottons, particularly T-shirts. As others have mentioned, there is the occasional random purple spot which may be associated with the pod getting stuck and not fully dissolved for 30 seconds or so. However more frustrating, I am also noticing the purple color seems to be accumulating on white t-shirts on the underarms. With each wash the color gets deeper and it is not just one person in our family. Perhaps there is a chemical reaction that is occurring to the pH or deodorant residue on the t-shirt which is attracting the purple die? I don't know, but I am switching back to the old liquid for my whites.
Why is Tide pods making my white t-shirts purple, also my husbands undershirts under the arms?
As any college student would be, I was very excited about the convenience of these tide pods as I often have to travel to campus to do laundry. However, I would highly recommend customers buy a different brand or different type of laundry detergent. Tide pods are supposed to be an easy way to ensure the cleanliness of my clothing, including the removal of stains, when it did the exact opposite! The "stain removal" swirls on the top of the pods STAINED my clothes! I read the instructions, making sure that my loads were not full, washing on the warmest water my clothes could handle, and putting the pod in the washing machine first. What happened? --> in the very first load, 4 articles of clothing became stained with dark blue dots, and a few orange ones. Being a college student, as mentioned before, I do not have the spare money to go out and buy new clothes. I do what I can to take care of my clothes, ensuring I get the most use out of them, and Tide Pods have prevented me from doing so. Unfortunately, I bought the giant bin of these pods at Costco and will be donating them to a shelter. I am very upset with this product and have told my family and friends to start using Arm & Hammer products from now on.
I have used the Tide Pods for over a year and they were great in the beginning and now due to the pods not completely dissolving the goop has built up in my front load HE washer. I do not overload my washer and the pods leave a goop on the clothes. I just washed a blouse on normal setting and there were clumps of goop on the blouse. I am so glad I saw it because the set of sheets were ruined because the heat front the dryer caused the goop to harden to the sheets. I tried to wash them again without a pod and the dried goop would not come off the sheet! I ran several empty loads with bleach to clean my washer. Will NEVER use pods again! Just terrible what happened to my clothes & bedding!
I do NOT use tide products EVER. I received a sample of Tide Pods and LOVED it! The smell was amazing after washing and lasted for days. Immediately I bought a huge amount of Tide Pods. After drying the clothes, there is no smell what so ever like the sample pack. It seems to me they put more ingredients in the sample pack so they can sell more and I am highly disappointed that such a well known company would do this. I am NEVER buying Tide products again!!!
I have used Tide on and off for many years now. When the pods came out, I decided to try them simply for the convenience. Although others have had problems and complaints about the product, I haven't seen any problems at all. My clothes come out clean and smelling fresh each and every time. I will continue to use this product in the future.
I love these little things! No more mess from spilled powder or drips from liquid. I have never had a problem with these and I have been using them since they first came out. My niece complained about them staining her clothes but she is known for overfilling the washer. In fact she broke my sisters washer when she was home last doing just that. Love Love Love them!!
I started using tide pods almost a year ago and loved them until recently. Now all my whites are coming out with purple spots all over them. I'm going back to liquid even though I love the convenience of the pods. Tide has a great idea but need to improve on their idea. A lot of stained clothes will be ending up in the landfills. Can't even donate to charity due to stains.
I have always used Tide and had no complaints until now. I've been using the pods for a couple months and had no issues with them until tonight when the pod failed to dissolve and left hardened, purple residue on clothes. Luckily, only a pair of pajama pants was ruined but now I'm afraid to use the rest of the pods (I have 1 and a half bags left that I got at Sams Club). So Disappointing!
I have used Tide detergent all of my adult life - first powder detergent, then liquid detergent, and now Tide Pods. I've always been happy with the results until just recently. I am using Tide Ocean Mist 72 pack of pods, and I noticed that my nice white sweater had a purple stain on it AFTER being washed, not before. I tried twice more washing that sweater and the stain was permanent. I didn't make the connection to my tide pod. I wash and rinse in cold water and the package clearly states the pod will dissolve in ANY water temp. 2 more separate sessions of laundry, and now each time I wash with the pods, there is a sticky purple mess like gum or glue stuck to my clothes after the rinse cycle. I will never buy these pods again. And I'm a 35 year long customer. I have wasted a big chunk of money on this 72 pack of pods which are now useless and have ruined my favorite sweater. P.S. I'm from Calgary, Alberta, Canada, but the pull down menu did not allow me to choose Canada so I picked a random state.
Am a second generation Tide-Only user, and this is the first time I have not only been dissatisfied but actually disgusted in Tide's performance. These pods are a slimy mess! I have a year-old front loading washer, and when the cycle is finished, there is a glop of colored goo in my front rubber gasket. Cold water wash is the worst. I experimented today to see how long it would stay there before dissolving when I ran more loads (if I didn't wipe it out with a paper towel), and the colored slime never dissolved through 3 more wash loads! Unfortunately, I had bought the 90-pac size of detergent, so I am stuck with it, although I returned to the store and bought both the liquid and granulated traditional Tide. P&G, you really let me down!!
When Pods first came out, I absolutely loved them. I was having trouble with my front load washer and liquid detergent staining my bath towels, and I thought Pods was a great solution to that problem. They're very convenient to use.. but then my whites started getting purple stains on them, and for a while, I couldn't figure out where the stains were coming from. Then it dawned on me..the pods are very colorful, and low and behold, one of the colors is purple! Mystery solved. I won't be purchasing Pods again, unless the purple color is removed from the mix. I've had to replace a good many of my husbands undershirts, which has been costly. When I contacted P&G about the problem, they essentially said there was no problem, due to extensive testing on their end with no stain results. They're sending me a coupon in the mail for a free Tide detergent (up to 64 uses). I don't understand how so many people have stained clothes, and P&G thinks there is no problem. That's baffling.
Leaves what looks like melted blue plastic on parts of clothing, I tried twice just to make sure (and I did follow directions)
Tide is the only detergent I use. I have tried many others and am always disappointed. However, I am disappointed in Tide Pods. My husband noticed he was getting blue stains on his white T-shirts and we weren't sure why, until we noticed the stains were the same color as the color in the Pods. We always make sure the pods are in the bottom of the washer so they are able to dissolve. This was very disappointing to us...we loved the concept, but we won't be buying the pods any more, especially at that price.
I have always used tide liquid in my laundry. After getting a new washer and dryer for Christmas I decided I was going to try the tide Pods. Never again...... I wash my kids clothes separate from mine and my husbands. Before I allow my kids to wear new Christmas clothes I washed them. Big mistake with the Pods. Purple stains that will not come out of brand new clothes. "Not cheap clothes either" $500.00 in clothes ruined. Such a bad product. Worst product ever... Guess I will be sticking to Tide liquid.
When is Tide going to come in different types of tide detergents? How about Tide with downy in pods??? Coldwater etc. With all the different kinds of tide, why not have them in Pod Form also. You can't beat Pods for convenience and clean, but I would like to see the others in Pods too! COME ON TIDE GET WITH IT !!!!!!!!!
I have been noticing areas on my blue and dark tan towels where it appears that they have have been in contact with bleach. The spots have an orangish color. Even a new set of towels that I had just washed once had some of these spots. Just wondering if the spots could be caused by the pods. I can think of no other thing that could have caused this problem. Otherwise, I like them very much
I would not recommend the Tide Pods. I have had trouble with them leaving purple spots on laundry and the plastic case not dissolving as it should. P&G should really take this product off the market. Nice idea in theory, but they do not perform well at all.
Love the smell of these pods so I gave 2 stars...but it has stained all of my white clothing and T-shirts with purple streaks. I don't use any other products with my laundry either. I will not purchase again.
I love Tide Pods! I no longer have to deal with messy liquid detergents or powders, that's a bonus. They do an awesome job keeping our clothes clean and bright, without having to use any treatments - unless it's a bad stain :) IMO, Tide Pods save me time and money, since there's nothing to spill or treat. I've tried them in my old standard washer as well as my new high efficiency machine with awesome results in both. Recommend!
I would like to briefly share my experience using Tide Pods. Started to see bluish/purple stains on all of my white clothes. Took a while to figure out that the root cause was the Tide Pods. Had already thrown out/cut up for rags many of these stained clothes/sheets as the stains would not come out. I contacted tide "customer service" (I use this term loosely). I was told that no problem existed and that consumers who had these stains were not intelligent enough to follow their label directions. Even though they insisted no staining problems existed, I was given a SIX step process to remove the stains. Hmmmm. Let me see - no problem exists, but they have a process in place to correct said nonexistent problem. For anyone with internet access, please research for yourself to see whether or not Tide is for you. Although the company says no problems exist, there are many, many testaments out there to the contrary. After the Tide "customer service" response, I have decided that it is not for me. Using their product should not require a SIX step process to correct the resulting damage this product causes.
These little guys just don't work! They don't clean the clothes and they don't have that great Tide smell like the liquid detergent. Tide should remove them from the market.
All of our underwear has turned purple, then today I washed a very expensive set of sheets and they are stained purple in about a dozen places on both sheets. Why do you have to have that purplish blue dye on the pods? I think you have a great product except you definitely need to remove the dye. If not I will be forced to buy another brand without dye. I can't afford to buy all new clothes and it does not wash out even with bleach.
I was loving these pods for my home and business until all of our white towels started turning light purple. All of my white exercise shirts and shorts developed purple stains on them and I've had to throw them out! I've probably lost close to $500 in clothing because of these pods. I'm not sure if my color clothes are stained or not. Either way, such a shock that such a trusted household name allows this to happen! We've used Tide since I was a kid. No more until they resolve this truly unnecessary problem.
Incredible! I read the reviews, followed the instructions, added extra water to the wash, have a new washing machine and still get the spots on white items. P&G doesn't do this! Please admit it is a mistake and take the product off the market. My husband worked for the company, we are stockholders and this does not come close to the values we expect in products.
The Pods sounded like a really good idea. Upon their use, however, I found that the material that encases the detergent doesn't always completely dissolve. When this happens, it tends to go right into the dryer with the clothes, and then it sticks to the fabric. If the fabric is 100% nylon, it sometimes even melts. I have holds in some of my slacks and panties now because of this oddity. I won't be buying this product again. Ever.
I like this product. It cleans my clothes but, it leaves stains on my clothes.
I have always used tide liquid in the past and thought that the pods were just easier than pouring out liquid. I get soap scum on them and have to rewash when I use cold water. I have been using warm water to use them up so the scum from the pod is still there but it seems to peel off when I use warm water. I will go back to the liquid.
I am a college student who is forced to live in a budget - I thought Tide pods would be a great convenience to me. It turns out they only made my life more difficult - they ruined three of my shirts and one of my bras with the sticky blue residue that does not come off when I try to stain wash it. Save yourself the money and stress, just get a different detergent.
This product was great for the first 10 loads I did. The next 2 loads I did, the packets did not dissolve all the way leaving a sticky residue on 2 of my sweaters and then it hardened to a stiff blue plastic mess on the clothes. I really loved the product but learned that they are not reliable and I had to re-soak and re-rinse both of the sweaters twice to get the product out of the clothes. Bummer waste of my time :( Especially because I don't have a washer/drier in my apartment and had to go to our building laundry mat! Stick with Gain, Apple Mango Tango folks!
I got the small packages of each of the scents to try them. Liked them, scent wise, however, I'm really weird about soap scum (residue) and feeling and hearing it in the clothes and that pretty much goes for all laundry detergents I use. I have found that liquids leave more residue than powders, but my husband, being a former plumber, says powders are bad on washing machines, so I use liquids. If I use just a little too much liquid, I have to rinse twice. That is what I found with Tide Pods. I thought they cleaned well, and perhaps, I didn't use them enough to see the blue discolorations others are pointing out, but our water bill is way higher than it used to be because I've had to do two rinse cycles with Tide Pods. I know this isn't the company's fault, but there are times when I have very small, small and medium loads and the Pods are just WAY too much for that, so I end up having to buy other detergent to use, so where's the savings there? I really like the concept of the pods, but I think they would only work really well with large Laundromat type washing machines where they have really good, long rinse cycles. Other than the residue issue, I really liked the idea of the Pods, the smell and how well they cleaned. Unfortunately, Tide has out priced itself, for me, anyway, and I'm sure others feel the same. I can't afford to pay the prices of Tide. It's like do I want to pay $11 for a bottle of Tide or the $15 for Pods or do I buy more food for my family? Hhhmmm, which is more important?
I bought a small bag to Tide Pods because I was curious about the product. Much to my dismay, my clothes stunk to high heaven after washing them with this product. I actually had to make a special trip to the store to buy a box of your tried and true Tide Plus Bleach Powder to rewash the entire load. Awful product, never again!
Consumers have lodged the same complaints since 2012! The pods don't dissolve completely. It effects my linens more than my clothes. It's awful and such a disappointment.
I buy tide pods every month to do my clothes in and this month when doing my clothes then drying them ive noticed blue stains in my daughters clothes then tonight i washed her new bed set witch her sheets are white with flowers well the tide pods stained her sheets with blue spots everywhere and i know i didnt wash to much cause it was only a toddler bed set two small sheets and a small blanket im very upset with tide and im about to change from buying tide to something else cause of this
This is the first and last time I will use Tide Pods... I had to rewash my clothes because the pod did not dissolve completely and left a mess on my clothes. My time is valuable to me and using this was not a good use of my time. Very disappointed because Tide is the only thing I've ever used. Going back to my liquid Tide.
We have been using Tide Pods in my household for about 3 months and WE LOVE THEM. My husband actually introduced me to these and I'm glad he did. We try to keep these in the house as much as possible! They work great with not just tide detergent but other detergent as well and it leaves our clothes smelling great! I can't seem to understand why some people have given the pods bad reviews because I wouldn't want to use anything else!!
When washing in hot water with my white clothing the purple in the pods stains the clothing. It is never a full load so it is not from overloading the machine. It is possible there are stains on my dark clothing too but I just am not seeing it. The website says it can be washed out...it can't. The stains are set. A simple solution would be not to put a color in the solution in the pods! There are alot of complaints about this on the internet, so many people are having the same problem. Tide really needs to discontinue this product or fix it! DON"T BUY THESE!!
I was very satisfied with Tide Pods until I used them on my beautiful, very expensive white towels. I now have purple stains on every single towel. I've tried everything to remove the stains, but nothing has worked. I spoke with Tide's customer service, and I was informed that I "misused" the product. Apparently, the pod is supposed to go into the washer (I have a front loader) before adding the clothes. The CS rep stated that the pod should dissolve as the water fills in the drum from the bottom -- before it touches clothes. So, I guess I am technically to blame; however, if there is even a chance that staining would occur, I really feel as if there should be a warning on the box. I did wash a load of old white towels using their instructions, and that load also had stains. The pod did dissolve -- all over my white towels. I'm still a huge Tide fan, so I will purchase a different product -- just not the Pods.
I would not recommend using the pods as the outside of the pod does not always dissolve and gets on your clothes and ruins them. Going back to liquid soap. Can't believe they still sell them with this problem.
I have noticed from experience if the cover is not closed on the container the pod covering does get hard. Could be the reason some have a problem with dissolving. I even run the pod under warm water to dissolve for hand washables in the sink. I love this product and I am saving a lot of money rather than over pouring the liquid.
I have used Pods for quite some time. I had been very satisfied with this product. Now this last container I purchased leaves a gumy residue on my clothes. Causing rewashing. I doubt I purchase this product again
The pods seem to work well on colors but leave dark purple splotches on all whites. I've tried everything to get the stains out without success. Any suggestions?
I've been using Tide for as long as I can remember. When your company came out with Tide/April Fresh I couldn't believe anything could make your clothes smell so good. Please consider using this in your pods. The fragrances you have now are rather a little too different I will continue to use the Tide w/ April Fresh detergent and hope you add April Fresh to your pods because they are easy to use. I feel certain there are other women who would agree with me.I can't compare Tide with any other detergent because I have always been satisfied with the way my laundry comes out so clean.
I purchased these pods and can't figure out how to use them. Every time I use them I end up with the undesolved pod stick somewhere on my clothes. I washed my clothes and packed for vacation only to find that the pods never melted and changed to hard lumps of dryed detergent shriveled up on my limited wardrobe that I traveled with. Really annoying. Would like a refund !
The pods are not fully dissolving and are sticking to my clothes or the door of my front loader, going back to liquid. Disappointed I spent money on something I cant use and have to throw away.
I tried Tide Pods because my sister loves them. I am not impressed. They don't dissolved and have ruined some of my husband's nice dress shirts. I am going to go back to my old laundry detergent which by the way isn't even a Tide product. Very disappointed.
very pleased with the clean feeling, and smell of this.
Husband bought these by accident. After getting aggravated at him, I was going to bring these back to the store. I am so glad that I decided to give these a try. They work great- so wonderfully easy to use, and like regular Tide, clothes come out clean and smelling wonderful!!
Having to wash everything in the house today. A while back I bought a years worth of Tide pods from Sam's Club. Two months ago I started using them then I developed a severe rash, After reading online I found that a lot of people are have the same problem. So I have to go back to Gain and wash everything in the house twice just to make sure I get rid of it. The second time is with water only. Thanks Tide! Never again!
I have used Pods now for about a year, mainly for whites on the "warm" water setting. I was concerned after reading all the terrible reviews but I have to say, I have not had any issues at all. I have a top loading, non-HE washer and drop a Pod in while the water is filling, let the water run over the Pod for a couple of minutes until there's about 3-4 inches of water in the tub then add my clothes (as per the instructions). No residue, no undissolved pods, no goo, no pipes clogged (as far as I know, but after a year of use I don't expect problems). Clothes come out clean, bright and smelling great. Super easy and convenient.
I was told by my step-mom to give tide pods a try. She uses them at their house, and says that they keep my brothers(who is disabled)clothes looking new even after accidents. We however, had not had such luck. I have had three experiences where the pod did not dissolve and left huge blue stains on our clothing. I prefer Tide over any other brand but I am disappointed by these Pods.
Used Pods as directed didn't dissolve ruined clothes
I received Tide Pods samples in my orders from Beyond the Rack. I read the instructions and used one. I was so overwhelmed at the results of the wash - the bright whites and colors - I told several friends of my astonishing experience and they all agreed they should give them a try. I will use Tide Pods from now on. Excellent decision to send samples w/orders from BTR., otherwise, I probably would not have bought them and had such a surprise.. Actually, I could not believe how noticeable the difference was. Thank you for sending the samples.
i have used Tide, Tide w/ Bleach, Tide with Fabreeze... and I have to tell you I am VERY disappointed in the product.. being from a military family Tide is what we used and grew up with. As an adult I want the cleanest clothes I can get... my husband works with the public so clean clothes are a have to....I gave these "NEW" Tide Pods a 6 month try, and I tried them all.. but it did not get my clothes clean even when I'd 2 to 4 in each load... I stopped using it a month ago because the pods sure weren't economical, didn't get my clothes clean, and often still had body smells [sweat] smells... do the math a large tub of pods @ $ 29 for 6 months dang I wasted way to much money giving Tide a faithful chance that they failed.
After getting so frustrated with using so much detergent, Tide Pods flashed across my TV and I decided to give it a shot. IT WAS AMAZING. Don't have to guess if I used the right amount of detergent and I use lavender dryer sheets which work well with Spring Meadow. I tell everyone to switch to Pods, they are so simple, keep my clothes smelling great and my husband loves the smell. I just got my mother in law to buy them as well. THANK YOU!
I have been using the Tide Pods for quite some time and have had no issues. I drop it in once I start the water in the washer and then put in my clothes. I have had none of the issues some people have had with the "purple spots". I use them in every load of laundry and I think they work great. Very easy to use and generally last much longer than a bottle of liquid detergent. I think it's a great product and will continue to use them.
It would not remove a mustard stain out of my shirt after two washings, and would not remove grease stains.
I was so excited to try the pods. They are sure easy to use. No drips or spills,however I ruined several of my husband's white shirts. The pods left giant purple stains all over them. Nothing I have tried seems to get the purple out. Now I am afraid to use them again. What a waste! I hope you will make these with the same wonderful fragrance but no dye!
I tried these pods for the first time while on a business trip. On a new pullover shirt pods left residue ie "goo" because it got wrapped up in my shirt. I used them in a white load and pods left purple blotches on almost everything. The commercial washer was not overloaded and was using warm water. These pods are clearly a bad product that ruined my clothes at very worst time.
I always use tide, and have tried the pods, for about 6months but will not buy anymore they always have one or two the bust and then they all stick together. then you lose about 10 to 12 pods because they all stick together.
I was surprised when I saw the negative reviews here. I never had any issues using this, and it actually lasted a long time compared to using regular detergent. I also like that the scent is pretty strong and fresh that I can still smell it after drying.
Tide Pods left purple stains on all my white cotton garments - especially where the garment has been in contact with underarm deodorant - the stains are permanent!
I bought pods for the convenience. I have ruined two pairs of my good jeans when using the pods. They left white bleach spots which do not go away. I will not be buying them again.
Im one of the lucky few who don't have a issue with the pods. I do laundry in a commercial establishment (heavy duty washers) so I don't have a issue with pods not dissolving. Clothing comes out clean. Does the work well. Not sure if I see any advantages compare to the liquid detergent.
I have used Tide with Bleach forever - when these pods came out I decided to give them a try. Absolutely love these, the clothes are just as clean and I use "just the right amount" of detergent to clean them
I had to quit using the pods. Although I love the idea of the convenience the pods continue to get stuck on my good towels, pillow cases, white tops etc. Its very frustrating to take things out of the dryer and find the pod remains stuck on something. I can't trust them anymore with our good clothes and towels. I am very particular! Also I have a brand new Samsung front loader. If the pod isn't on the bottom it ends up un-dissolved in the door gasket. Then I wonder - are my clothes clean? I won't use any more.
I bought the tide pods and I hate them. they don't dissovle and the slim all over my clothes and have to rewash them more then once to get the pod off my clothes. What a waste of money. Please take them off the shelves.
I don't usually buy tide unless it is on sale, I am not one to care about brands. I thought I would give the tide pods a shot and I was so wrong. When I pulled my white work shirts out, THEY WERE TY DYED PURPLE! $30 a piece, 3 shirts. I should have stuck with my bargain brand, would have spent less on detergent and I wouldn't be out $90 for new shirts.
I am a loyal Tide customer and have been for many years. I started using Tide pods about 6 months ago. I had clothes occasionally show up with weird purple stains. I thought something had been mixed in with my light clothes by accident. I just recently discovered when washing something in a very small load of all whites that it is the pods making the purple stains on my clothes. It is impossible to get the stains out. Even soaking the clothes in chlorine bleach doesn't get it out. I am so disappointed and I really don't want to go back to powder or liquid. I have no choice but to do that or switch to a brand that has pods with no dye. I have definitely purchased my last Tide Pods, at least until they come out with a dye free version.
I have loved the Tide Pods for several months now, so I bought a package of the 77 pods. I used a few off the top and when I went to get one today many of them are stuck together. You cannot get them apart without all of them opening up. What a mess this caused in my laundry room. Please do something so that these pods will not stick together. I love the product but can't afford to pay $20 for 77 pods and only able to use less than half of them.
This did not dissolve completely and stained my favorite shirt. This was a mistake that cost me 60.00
I am a nurse & wear white scrubs every day. We started using pods because they were convenient & could be used with HE washer. I started noticing purple discoloration to my scrub shirts & undershirts a couple months ago. Bleach doesn't help. Spray & wash doesn't help. I now have to go and buy new scrub tops. I still like Tide liquid, but pods are not a good product.
I purchased the pods due to the ease and I like the concept; it's been very convenient for my teen to do laundry without the liquid mess. The spring meadow scent is another story - HORRIBLE! Even my boys can't stand the smell so I've had to supplement the loads with scented fabric softener. Stay away from this one - select one of the others.
I usually use Gain, and tried something different with the Tide Pods, and the Spring Meadow does not have a fresh smell and makes my clothes smell worse.
I have high regard for Tide products. However, this product made me second guess. I appreciate how easy and clean it was to do the laundry. There are no spills or residue on my hands. However, it faded my load of laundry!!! This is NOT ok. Good idea, bad product.
I was a little apprehensive about buying the pods, but decided to get them anyway. I absolutely love them and they worked so well. Even though they are more expensive, I am willing to buy them every time I need laundry detergent.
I don't even know what to say.....I have ruined at least one item of clothing in each load ive done. And I have tried every temperature and the pods still didn't dissolve and left purple stains on my clothes. Really thought this would be quicker and cleaner than the liquid. Looks like I'm going back to liquid and I'm upset I wasted money on this product!
Tide PODS have ruined my daughter's school uniforms, my husband's work clothes, and my maternity clothes. I will never use these again and would rather use the cheap powder soap before using any Tide product again.
I have purple stains on three t-shirts and one blouse. These items are no longer wearable in public. I have tried 3 different commercial stain removers and one home made stain remover to no avail. I finally broke down and used bleach (twice!) to see if the stains would come out. No such luck! I am incredibly disappointed with the pods and will never use them again. These pods could not have gone through a very thorough product testing or the testers would have realized the problem with the purple staining.
They don't quite dissolve in the washer had to repurchase a whole liquid bottle which then became a waste on the pods!
It is quite ironic that a product claiming to remove stains has actually stained and destroyed hundreds of dollars worth of my clothing. It is one thing when a product does not live up to promises by failing to remove stains, it is quite another matter when a product that claims to remove stains actually creates stains. Disaster product!!
I USED THE TIDE PODS AND IT RUINED ALL MY WHITE CLOTHES TURN THEM PURPLE! IT ALSO LEFT SPOTS ON ALL MY JEANS! HATE THE PODS WOULD NEVER USE AGAIN! I HAVE A BRAND NEW FRONT LOAD WASH MACHINE AND IT DONT HAPPEN WITH THE TIDE LIQUID OR THE POWER! HOPE YOU FIX THE PODS ARE CONVEINENT BUT NOT WORTH THE MONEY TO BUY NEW CLOTHES! RUINED MY DAUGHTER NEW $60.00 ZORBAA SWEATSHIRT WORE IT ONE TIME!
I like using the pods, but it does not have the fresh scent that the liquid has. If you could add a fresh scent to the pods, I will continue to use them, if not I will probably have to go back to the liquid.
Even it looks like a good product is a very bad idea, the plastic do not dissolve with water and it get stuck in your clothes, i ruined 2 blouses,
I used Tide products many years ago and stopped because there would be blue stains randomly scattered on the clothes. When the pods were rated so highly by consumer reports I decided to give Tide another chance. To my disappointment most loads of laundry contain the sticky remnants of the blue packaging on at least one item of clothing. Unfortunately I purchased a large quantity at the local BJ's and I'm now stuck with them. I will definitely not buy this product again and will not recommend it to anyone.
I'm so upset with the tide pods. I got them because i thought it would be easy to just toss and go. Its not that easy. I used them in every temperature as it say it will desolve in all types. Not at all.It was stuck to my clothes and i had to rewash many times to get it off my clothes.I am a busy mother and don't have time to rewash all the time nor do i have the money to waste to replace my clothes or to run my water over and over again. Please save your time and money and don't use the tide pods.
I received a few of the vivid tide powder pods from a friend - I was excited to use them. I followed the instructions, but all three times I used the pods, they ended up undissolved on the rim of the plastic door liner of my front loader. Only after 30 minutes into the load did the water finally remove the soggy pod from the rim, which meant 30 minutes of washing with no detergent. I had to rewash all three loads. Perhaps these would work when you dissolve into a top loader...but isn't that more work - and isn't this product supposed to make your laundry chore easier? AVOID.
my tide pods burst in the bag that it came in and i'm not satify all but 4 was good and i brought the bag that had 14 in them and i use tide all the time so for me to continue to use tide i would like that the pods in bust in the bag
This product destroyed 2 of my favorite shirts, one recently purchased, another from a different country. This product is terrible and should never be purchased. Living in a dorm I thought it would make doing laundry easier, instead its destroyed my property. NEVER BUY THIS!
The pods do not dissolve as promised, ruined a 6 month old comforter. Whites come out greyed. Extremely unhappy
I am NOT satisfied. They do not dissolve as stated. The residue clogged my new machine. The maintenance call to repair the machine because of the PODS made me very angry. I tried dissolving them in a dish before placing in washing machine. the white part opened but the other two did not. The material surrounding the white liquid was slimey and had to be thrown in the trash. TIDE should do more testing before selling such a shoddy product. I will never use the PODS of any kind again.
I am in my 70's, and my mother introduced me to 'Tide' many, many years ago. I like the new pods (reason for my 5-star rating), but wish they came in a container with an easier to open top. My poor old fingers just could not open the container, and I ended up with cut fingers in the process of trying. Finally had to ask a friend to open it, then just left it open. Unfortunately, being left open brought about very sticky pods due to humidity. My hope is that the container opening will change to 'easy open' for older folks, and for those whose fingers are not as flexible as they once were. A softer, more flexible lid latch would be appreciated.
I like Tide. I have used other detergents and came back to Tide, because I found in the long run it's a better value. It may cost more, but it works better than other brands and so I find it's worth the extra money spent. However, I have tried the new pods twice now. I don't remember which scent I chose the first time, but the second time I chose the Alpine Breeze. This time I am noticing that my cotton clothes seem to have retained an odd smell. It's hard to describe, but it is definitely NOT pleasant. The best way I can find to describe the odor is that it smells like a homeless person. None of my clothes had this smell before I laundered them and I cannot think of any other reason they might smell this way. I definitely won't be using the Alpine Breeze scent ever again. Most likely, I'll just go back to using the liquid Tide. While I like the convenience of the pods, I just don't find it measures up to the additional cost for me.
I normally cant afford tide too often but i saw it on sale and figured i would give it a try, so i had purchased the tide pods thinking it would be easier to just throw one pod in a load instead of measuring with cup. I noticed after doing 2 loads of laundry the pods didnt melt all the way and had ruin some of mine and my sons clothes which doesnt make me too happy since i am on a tight budget and havent got much $ to replace them :-)
I have a new HE washer and continued to use Tide liquid for all my washing as I had done before. Then I started adding Tide Boost. Everything was OK until this month. I have done two washes that the white items have come out light blue! Nothing was in either wash that had not ben washed before. I now have three white shirts the most awful color light blue!
In a new LG HE steam washer, one pod went through both the sanitary wash and hot dryer without dissolving. The load was top and bottom twin sheets, mattress protector and square of hospital sheeting. I've had them open and not completely dissolve but this is the first time finding one that went thru both machines unopened. I will be checking each load more careful.
I completely ruined a set of sheets, and 2 shirts before realiizing it was the Tide Pods that were creating the problem. The outer packaging of the pods does not properly melt causing it to stick to things, I have not been able to remove the left over plastic. I want to be very clear, the set of queen sheets were the only things that were in the load so it wasn't due to an over loaded washer. I NEVER overload my machine. Very disgusted with the product. Would not recommend it.
I have been using Tide Pods and loved them. As I pulled my sons new dres clothes out of the dryer, some items looked like I had splattered them with a drop of two of Bleach. His dress shorts and a sentimental shirt are ruined. It is sad because I loved this product and now can't use it. I have a bunch left too!
I love that the Pods do not make a mess like liquid or grainy detergents. Also, the ease and quickness of their use is attractive. Most of the time my clothes are clean and everything is normal, which is why I continue using them. HOWEVER, on occasion, my whites get ruined. So far, I have probably lost about $250 because of this. I am planning on purchasing a separate detergent specifically for my whites :-(
I bought Tide Pods for use on vacation as a convenience. The first time I used them I found a bluish slime on a pair of khaki shorts. I thought maybe I had left something in the pocket. Then, after washing a very expensive set of white sheets, I found the same blue stains all over them. Then read the reviews. I even tried putting a pod in a pan of boiling water to see just how hot it would need to be to dissolve. After 5 minutes in a rolling boil there was still blue plastic residue on a spoon. Would never buy again!
Pods work without any problem in top loaders, (I have one which I use for things that need overnight soaking) if you put in the pod and then add the water and clothes. Some have complained of residue from Front Loaders with Pods. I also have a Whirlpool Duet Front Loader. I have never had a problem when I do a full load, as my washer automatically adds additional water. If I was only doing a small load, as my housekeeper sometimes does, then I have simply cut the pod, adding the liquid detergent to a cup of water and then put that into the drawer dispenser, and then put the colorant and stain fighter into an additional cup of water and added that to the automatic beach dispenser. Works like a charm and the entire load is wonderfully clean. I use only cold water and even aged grease stains have come out with Tide Pods.
I have used tide products my entire life and I loved them, so I was shocked when I had found purple/blue stains on my very expensive white bed linens after using a tide pod detergent. I thought that maybe if it was just extra detergent stuck to the linens it would just wash out, but after rinsing numerous times the stain wont budge. My advise is stick to the liquid detergent!
Used Tide all my adult life. stoped using for awile, ie seamed to smell funny, moldy, had new washer. I asked a few friends. all agreed. tried pods much better no bad smell. will stick with pods. thank you tide....
Very hard to use when doing smaller loads of laundry as the pod is pre measured and more suited towards a full load ...
I switched to Tide pods a year ago after using a variety of other liquid detergents and powder. I've been getting them at my local Costco (105 count and now 120 count). I haven't had any problems with it. They are easy to use, no need for measurements, just toss one in. I used to pour a whole load of detergent in the wash, and am now definitely saving using the pods. They wash great and the clothes smell and feel great. I've used them for light, medium, heavy and extra heavy loads using cold, warm and hot water, and have never faced a problem with staining, residue, etc. Will definitely continue to use them for a long time to come and would recommend them to family and friends without a second thought.
Simplicity is how i viewed this product but i was very wrong....The tide pods not only stained my clothing, it left behind plastic on them which is impossible to get off. i have tried rewashing in hot water to see if they would melt, i tried ironing it out to see if that would help. nothing. the $4 bag of tide pods i bought and used ruined at least $200 worth of clothing in my house. i would NOT recommend this product to anyone. i will go back to making my homemade laundry soap.
I love Tide! I have not had a problem with the Pods...yet! But if you look at the recent reviews, you'll see that many have had a problem with staining and plastic. Last year when the reviews started, there were no complaints...except a rare one. Perhaps they're having quality issues. I hope no customers are lost and they can fix this soon. I have an LG HE washer and find the Pods so much easier than measuring and pouring into the small hole for the detergent. That's why I gave 3 reviews. We need UNSCENTED. Also, not sure why you need to buy Tide Boost to help your Tide. Why don't you just 'perfect' the Tide? I never buy the additional product, Tide Boost...don't know why we need that.
I decided to try the pods to see if they work. The plastic that house the ingredient do not desolve completely. It leaves some of the detergent on the clothes. Then you have to rewash the clothes again. Which causes you to spend more time washing. Wen its should save you time. I guess I have to go back to using the liquid detergent and throw away the rest of the pods that I have left. This is just wasted money for a consumer. Maybe you guys need to take another look at the plastic that you are using for the detergent.
I purchased the Tide Pods (102 count) for my HE front loader. The product leaves a slime all over my clothing and gasket of the machine, even when using warm water. I have tried extra rinse cycles to no avail. I have used another brand pod with good results - guess I'll switch back to the other brand. Tide needs to improve the water solubility of this product for it to actually work. I do like the smell (spring meadow) - have not noticed any bad smells mentioned in other reviews.
I have a front loader and I really like the pods. No more mess in the detergent drawer. It also takes the guess on how much product to use. I like the small space that the box takes. Rarely does the pods get stuck in the inner gasket but if they do they still dissolve , and I find a small piece of plastic. I noticed that the time that it got stuck it was when I washed large piece of clothing like bed sheet or comforter. I wish they would be a scent free pod though if I can suggest. Good product overall
Tide is a well known brand but you don't always get what you pay for. The pods do not dissolve all the way. The plastic sticks to your clothes or gets stuck in the door of my front loader causing the machine to stop in the middle of a load. I've had numerous pieces of clothing ruined because of purple stains that will not come out. I did write Tide and they sent me a free coupon. More clothes ended up the same way. I'm ready to send Tide a bill for all of my ruined clothing, sheets and towels. I will never buy these again. A total waste of money!
The only problem with them is, if one breaks in the container. I have 6 stuck together!!! Not happy with that.
This product has cost me more in ruined garments then it has ever saved me in time. The product leaves plastic like residue on my laundry that does not come off. Will not use again.
I am in the military and this was one of the best purchases I have ever made. They are so easy to pack in your ruck sack without having to worry about lugging around a big bottle of detergent that has a change of spilling. I am a mechanic as well so my uniforms can get pretty filthy and it just took one tide pod to get my uniforms clean! I will be buying these from now on!
I have always used tide and no other detergent for the last 16 years, so when pods came out I could'nt wait to use them, "they are the greatest!! the portion sizes helped my family save money as my husband never measured the liquids. Last year I took pods on a cruise vacation to do my laundry, and since I went with a group, I shared my pods with 2 other families, they are now Tide Pod families.
I like the scent of these Pods, and they're great for traveling but they are very mediocre at cleaning in my HE machine. I usually have to use two pods to get results comparable to the smallest load amount of powdered Tide HE or line 2 of liquid Tide sport. Coupled with their ludicrous price per load, I will only buy them if they're on clearance or sale or I need a few for a trip. I have had a couple not dissolve properly and leave blue marks on my clothes, so I started throwing the pods directly into the dispenser which eliminated that problem.
Pods are horrible! I got a large container of pods as a Christmas gift - I usually use liquid free. The pods do not dissolve the entire way in my front loader. Even more frustrating, my husband keeps telling me he is noticing NEW stains on our clothes (he does all the ironing). I just did our queen size sheets - when I went to put them on our bed, the fitted sheet had a large area of blue hard plastic melted onto it - I had to rewash the sheets. I am giving the rest of the container away. I cannot keep doing this anymore. I also dislike the weird smell the pods leave on my clothing.... just very disappointed. Will definitely only use liquid.
I bought Tide PODS after a friend said they were easy to use. I have a front load washer so I read the instructions twice to be sure I could use PODS with it. I put the POD in the washer, then loaded the clothing in. After the washer finished up I opened the door to find a slimy whitish pink substance. Figuring it might just be from one of the kid's items I threw my clothes in the dryer. Upon removing the clothing from the dryer and folding them I found two of my white TShirts had blue and orange stains all over them. Very disappointed in Tide PODS!
My step daughter and her boyfriend moved in with us about a month ago. This past weekend, my husband had to "snake" the drain pipe. The water from the washing machine was backing up and coming out of the hose behind the washer, spilling onto the floor. We were baffled as to what could have caused that line to clog. Today, my step daughter comes up to me with her $25 shirt she bought from Disneyland last week with a big blue stain on it. After some quick research on these pods, I put her shirt to wash with a batch of my husband's clothes using a little of tide's free and gentle detergent and a cup of white distilled vinegar. The stain came right out. I proceeded to keep reading reviews on these pods and saw at least four reviews stating that the plastic coating from the pods clogged their drain pipe, causing them to call a plumber to fix the problem. Eureeka!, there was our clogging problem. We have lived here for over 6 years, and have NEVER had a problem with the drainage. Thank goodness my husband is a "jack of all trades." For what this product costs, which is probably for the "convenience" alone, it is ridiculous for so many people to have to throw away clothes, call a plumber, or wash their clothes again multiple times to put a dent in the stains.This product is seeming to cause more hassle and money than convenience. My stepdaughter is a college student. She cannot afford to keep buying new clothes, and I shouldn't have to rewash clothing items with vinegar. The tide pods are no longer allowed to be used in our home. I would warn everyone I can to steer clear of the tide pods!!!!
Over and over again the pods didn't dissolve leaving the sticky outer packaging on my clothes and ruining several items. I contacted Tide & they sent me a coupon to buy more. Why would I buy more when the product is ruining my clothes. Not a proper response to my problem. They also said to use warmer water to wash the clothes. It says on the container that the pods dissolve in all temperatures. This product is definitely not worth the money. Not counting the countless items of clothing that were ruined! If I could have given no stars I would have done that!
I'm not sure why other people are having trouble with the pods because I absolutely love them. They always completely dissolve, my clothes feel and smell great & it prevents my kids from "over pouring" laundry detergent. The only time I do not use the pods is when I wash towels and that's only because I don't use fabric softener on my towels because it makes them less absorbent. Anyone who tries Tide Pods and isn't happy with them, feel free to send the remainder to me! Sincerely
i love the tide pods there not even as heavy as the liquid bottles even when you buy the biggest package.i always buy the biggest package of pods which carry 77 of them and it lasts me a long time....not only are they not heavy to carry but they also clean my clothes very well and they leave my clothes smelling nice and fresh keep up the good work tide and keep these around cause its all i will buy!!!!!!
I have been using Tide Pods since they appeared on the market in my local area. I love the fact that I can just throw the pod in the washer and not deal with pouring a liquid. Like others I have had a few instances when residue has remained on my clothing, such as a blue stain or plastic that has not dissolved when washing an extra heavy load. When I cut back on the load I have no problems and my clothes always come out clean and smelling great. My teenage children do their own laundry and also love the Pods. In fact they insist on doing their own laundry since it is so easy. Thanks Tide for helping this busy PA mom out!
This product is amazing. I love Tide products. GO TIDE GO.
This product was not satisfying. It did not remove stains easily, and it did not brighten my clothes. I do not recommend this product.
I am a mom of 4 boys, so I do a lot of laundry. This product is horrible. These pods do NOT completely dissolve. I am using the hottest water possible to avoid this, yet my family is constantly finding the plastic coating embedded in our clothes, towels and sheets. Forget about using cold water. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. I am using the pods I currently have and never buying them again. Tide should not sell these pods on the market.
i bought tide pods and used them to wash my white blankets when the wash was finish there was blue stains all over them i had to wash them over with javex to gets the stains out tide pods are now in the garbage i will never use them again hersma
I like the pods but I use tide powder for cleaning also, have for years. Please put out more couponds for tide ultra.
do not buy - I have ruined numerous items with blue stains that needed rewashing. New issue is the plastic melted on the shirt and has left a sheen of plastic. Too expensive a product with all the frustration - rewashing - and now ruined clothes!! They need to take this one back to the table and do a remake!!! Great idea but horrible product!
I first started using the Pods at my MIL's and boy do I wish she never bought them!! It seemed like it was working at first, but I didn't realize how long it actually has been ruining my clothes. As you can see, MANY people with front-loaders are telling you that it doesn't dissolve in cold water-- LISTEN! I've been finding little plastic pieces on some of my clothes for some time now and realized it only happens to cold cycles that I wash at her house. This week I'm house sitting and praying that the gigantic purple/pink/blue stain covering at least half of HER king-sized sheet will come out! I noticed that the Tide employers had the audacity to not only remind others to not overfill their load, but to not run cold cycles in the winter! Well, 1. I know when to stop adding laundry and 2. it was 90 degrees out that day. Unfortunately I was in a hurry, so I didn't see the stain before putting it in the dryer (but I did notice a weird smell too; it must be what others talked about). If P&G is concerned enough about dissolving issues to recommend not running cold cycles in winter months (and to always use the warmest water the clothes will allow), then it shouldn't be advertised to dissolve in cold water!! How many people have to report damaged/ruined items for you to actually do something?? Giving bad advice to random reviews doesn't cut it! I will definitely warn everyone I know about this!!
I like Tide Pods, it is a great buy and before I started using the Pods I was not using it as much and I will continue as long as they make it. It is simple, if you use it the way it is described and it dissolves perfectly. Place it in the bottom of the washer before you put your clothes in and zoom, it is working. It is not messy, I hope they continue manufacturing it.
I love te tide pods. people say they don't dissolve properly..I find that they dissolve perfectly if you put them in the washer with a little bit of water before you put your clothes in. That always works for me. I have never had a problem with them.
I bought Tide pods to try. I have a front loading washer. I will NEVER purchase this again. I have tried using the pod with hot water, cold water and warm water. It just doesn't matter what water temp. I used, blue stuff was left on the clothes. I had to rewash each load to get the blue off each item. I do think pods are too expensive and a royal pain to use. I definitely would not advise anyone to waste their money and buy this.
The pods are leaving a hard plastic stuck to my cloths and a blue stain! I'm very disapionted because the pods cost more and my clothes cost a lot. I have been a life log Tide user, so Tide listen up and pull this off the shelf
I've been using pods for 6 months we have well water so it's nice to just pop in a pod and not have to use a ton of different products. However i have had a few not dissolve all the way only when washing large blankets though..after reading other reviews Iam worried about them clogging my front load washer due to the fact that we already have hard water to fight
After using this product several times. I also noticed the sticky residue pieces on my clothing. I thought at first it was because of cold water, but it does the same thing with hot water. I love Tide detergent, but am very disappointed in Pods. I won't be using these again unless Tide acknowledges and corrects the problem.
i have a beautiful white skirt from Melanie Lyne that i paid an absolute fortune for...blue stains all over it...after reading the reviews, i feel as though tide should probably invest in improvement and make a half-decent attempt at correcting their stupid mistake...i am angry, almost persuaded to buy from another competitor
I was skeptical of the Pods because they were new and though I use Tide exclusively I still wondered if I could get the same clean that I get from Tide Vivid and the answer is yes! I will continue to use both the Pods and Vidid for different reasons. The Spring Meadow scent is so very lovely and sweet. I love it. The clean is consistent with the excellent nature of Tide. My grandmother used Tide and I use and love Tide and always will. Thanks for another terrific and tested product that we can count on.
After using Tide Pods for several months I started to notice hard plastic spots on some of our clothes. I did not have staining or any other problems. Because our clothes washer is in our basement and drains below the sewer line I had a laundry pump system installed 7 years ago. Our current washing machine is a 3 year old front loader. Six weeks ago I was doing a load of laundry, the laundry pump jammed and the tank that contains the pump overflowed and leaked all of the water from the entire laundry cycle into our basement. I cleaned up the water and shook the tank and the pump started working again. I flushed the tank and the pump worked fine. I realized over the last 6 weeks that the pump works fine if a load of laundry was done using warm or hot water at least once every few days. If we did not do laundry for 4 or more days the pump would jam and we would have a flood. I purchased a new pump system and tank ($220) and went to install it today. I took the vent pipe off the old system, took a flash light and looked into the tank. I saw that a thick coating of clear/grayish gunk was coating the inside of the tank, the pump, the pump float and other components. I realized right away it was probably the pods not totally dissolving. I looked up the reviews on this site and saw that some other people were complaining about undissolved pods and problems with their front loader machines getting clogged. I am hoping that I can flush all the pod gunk out of the pump system so I can return the new one I purchased and save us a couple hundred dollars. I will never use the pods again and will go back to using Tide liquid immediately.
I have been using Pods since they came out. And I must say that I have not had a single problem out of them.. I love the one scent more than the other two, but I wish we could get Pod coupons in the paper monthly. It would be more convenient to buy.
Pod doesn't dissolve completely, it breaks up into many small pieces and sticks to your clothes. If you do not pick them off before you dry your clothes it will become a hard plastic like material that is hard to get off.
I don't know if anyone else has this problem but when ever i use tide pods my clothes, come out smelling like a wet dog. I have done everything to make my clothes smell better. I even use 3 on loads. I would not recommend this to anyone. Tide liquid is so much better and smells amazing!!
I've been using this ever since it came out and I love it. I've not had any issues with the pack not dissolving completely(as previously stated). My clothes look great and smell wonderful. The pods make laundry so easy even my Husband and Son (he's 19) have started pitching in a little more. Thanks Tide for making my life a little easier. =D
Have been using these for the past month n havent had any problems, Makes it easy for everyone in the home to do laundry without using more than necessary. If the pods dont dissolve all the way maybe its what is in the water. have spring water n never had a problem with it.
At first, this product was great, but in the past month I have had to throw clothes away due to its "wrapper" not dissolving throughly in the wash ( I do pre-soak, Stain cycle, and extra rinse on ALL my wash loads). The film does nto dissolve all the way and then when I put the clothes in teh dryer, it turns into a hard plastice like substance that sticks to teh cloths and stucks them together. It is impoosible to get out and I have to throw stuff away! I suppost my kids and self on under 2600 a month, I cannot afford to just throw clothes away!!!! At first I thought my kid left something in a pocket, but after MANY washes having this occur sporatically, it came to see if it happened with a different type of Tide and it did not; it ONLY occurs when I uses these Pods! iF YOU CARE ABOUT YOUR CLOTHES, BE FOREWARNED THEY MAY JUST BE RUINED BY THIS PRODUCT!
Manufacturer has changed the Tide Pod packaging from clear to solid orange. I have to open the container to see how much is left inside and I think the orange color is ugly. Also, why don't you issue coupons for Tide Pods? It is more expensive than the liquid Tide, so coupons would help with that. The pods are more convenient than the liquid, but is it worth the cost?
I received the Tide Pods as a free sample and finally tried it today. After reading some of the reviews, I decided to only use it on some white shirts and underwear in case anything went wrong. I put in the pod, ran the water cold for a medium lod and added the laundry. My results were great! The clothes looked great and it was easy. No issues of residue or coloring issues. I'm not sure if I will purchase. I would have to look at the cost, but I was pleasantly surprised with the results and the ease of use.
I will never do pods again, they left blue marks all over my clothes. Very disappointed in the product and very expensive to replace damage clothes.
I love Tide Pods! I pop one or two(for heavy soils or large loads) into my washer, start the water and then add my clothes. I've never had an issue with residue or stains. Everything comes out clean and smelling great, even my towels! I'm also saving money because when I used liquid detergent I tended to use too much.
I love the fact that I can start the washer drop in a pod or 2 ( my Boyfriends jeans need a lot of help being covered in oil and grease from his job), finish shorting my piles and drop in the clothes. The come out clean and smelling great i have not had any problems with residue or smells from my pods. I love the easy to use design, I do wish that the container was easier to open one handed, my son loves to watch the pods explode while we wait to put in the clothes..
I found out the hard way that the Tide Pods stain clothes...not just whites! I have a front load HE washer and was under the impression the Pods would be a good fit - so disappointed...especially at the cost of the product!
leaves stains on clean clothes, I hate the pods. Am going back to liquid.
I have used Tide for over 40 years and have used almost of their products at one time or another, but these are by far the most disappointing product I have used. Not only did the product stick to, and stain some of my things, but the odor is disgusting...it smells fishy to me. The first time I thought it was something else causing the odor, so I re-washed, the next time, same thing. Unfortunately, I have a very low income and live in an apartment with pay laundry machines, and the last thing I needed was not only spending my money on Tide Pods, but now I have to go purchase new detergent, and once again, spend the money to rewash everything.
I purchase the Ocean Mist pods and was very disappointed. The pods were stuck together and when I tried to pull them apart they tore. Detergent poured out. This was a real mess. The ones that didn't tear did not provide the cleaning power I expected from Tide. I will not use this product again.
I think I just ruin brand new sheets. I washed it with a Tide Pod and when it came out of the dryer it had a bunch of hard spots on it. After reading the other reviews it must be the pod that did not fully dissolve. I have a front load washer and have found undissolved pieces in the machine before, but it never did that to my clothing. Guess I will get rid of these pods and switch to a different brand. Love the concept; hate the results!
I've tried Tide Pods for 3 months and never had a problem. Id start the water then added the pods before i put my clothes into to let the pod dissolve , and never had any issue. Clothes had a very clean feel and scent.
I moved to Tide Pods from the liquid Detergent. I love the Pods! It makes laundry that much easier. Once or twice it did not desolve. However, those where times I stuffed a king size quilt in my front load washer. I have discovered, if you put the Pod in first (with large loads) then your clothes (quilt) on top, it desolves as it should. Thanks Tide!!
I have been a Tide customer for years. I bought the Tide Pods for convenience. Unfortunately, the pod itself had attached to my clothes and did not dissolve. It has ruined some of my articles of clothing because the plastic ended up being stuck to them and even wasted a doing an entire load of laundry.
I have used liquid Tide for a long time, but the Pods looked as an item to make laundry even easier. I followed the instructions to the letter, but the pods did not dissolve. The pods were attached to my clothes. I had to wash all over. What a mess. I expected better from a company that promotes so many worth while products.
I also loved the convenience of the pods but I was getting blue spots on my clothes therefore having to wash them twice. Went back to the old tide. Very disappointed.
Like everyone else, I bought it for the convenience factor. Grab one, toss it in the washer and walk away. I had been using them for a couple of months with no problem until about a week ago. I was washing an expensive duvet and pillowcases. One of the pillowcases had melted plastic stuck to it surrounded by a huge orange spot. Ive tried everything to get the plastic off but nothing worked. I have finally accepted the fact that they are ruined. I told a friend from work what happened and she said she had to pay a plumber to unclog her pipes that had been stopped by the plastic pieces of these pods. Does anyone know if Tide will compensate for damage caused by its products?
I bought these because I liked the idea of just tossing it in the wash and going. That didn't last long. After my first load of whites turned blue, I lost my excitement about the product. I hate wasting stuff that I have already purchased, so i stood at the washing machine and made sure that the packet completely dissolved before I would put my clothes in. Lost the convenience factor. I finished the bag I bought, but I have not used them since. Just buy the old fashioned bottle.
Sometimes the Pods stain the clothes permanently! Before I figured it out they ruined several pieces of my clothing. I finally did a search to see if others had problems like me and found many, so buyer BEWARE!
Tide pods are great, and very easy to use, and they make your laundry smell so clean and fresh, i wish i had tried them a long time ago, Thank you Tide,
I recently decided to try out the tide pods, even though they are much more expensive then my regular detergent. My very first wash stained ALL of my white tank tops, and left stains on several other shirts. I carefully went through everything to make sure I didn't accidentally leave something in a pocket.. After several washes with no soap, the stains came out a little bit, but not completely. I decided to give it another whirl, this time without putting any lights in. After taking my clothes out of my dryer and folding them, I realized the pod had got stuck on two pairs of my name brand sweats, completely ruining them. I threw my whole 72 pack container away and WILL NEVER BUY THESE AGAIN. The damage of just a few loads cost me over $200. not acceptable.
The Mystic Forest fragrance smells like wet dirt. I will buy a different frangrance once my "wet dirt PODS" are finished.
So I googled this problem to see if anyone else was experiencing it and here it is........I was thrilled to purchase these even though MUCH more expensive than my current brand because clothes smell good and it's less messy. However I'm finding a white residue on many of my clothes and then I found the pod skin sticking to clothes. Rewashing everything and ruined clothes do not save me $$ or time. I have started just snipping pod with scissors and squeezing it under water while filling to get all the stuff out and discarding the pod skin - I will not put the pod in my washer. I'll be using what I have and moving back to my old brand and hope they resolve this issue.
I do everything, whites to blacks, delicates to rugs, using only Tide Pods and have never had a problem. My secret to success is always putting the Pod in first, then a few inches of water, then whatever is to be washed. The Pod has always dissolved completely and my laundry has been worry-free. The 90 count size is just right for me. Thanks for a great product !
Two tops were ruined with purple stains from the pods.
Had purchased this product at Sam's Club because I had just purchased a new washer and couldn't use liquid so I thought I would give the pods a try and just fell head over heels for them. The only down fall is can't find a single coupon anywhere. Seems to me the company doesn't want to help out the family woman.
I really like the simplicity of the Tide Pods. I have just opened my second package of 90 pods. Clothes come out very clean and smell fresh. Every once in a while the pod does not disolve completely and becomes stuck (securley glued) to the clothing. If this problem can be solved a would gladly give the pods 5 Stars.
I have been using the Tide Pod's for the past couple of months and this is not the first time I purchase them either. Recently, I found that one of the pods was melted to my sweater, and some of the left over detergent had transferred on to my other clothing. Very upset as I cannot replace the sweater or remove the melted-plastic-like "pod"casing from the fabric. Looks like some further testing or guidelines need to be made regarding which types of fabrics these Pods are not suitable for!
Like many other young families, we are on a strict budget. We have been making our own laundry soap for over a year now, and it was time for a change. As opposed to going back to buying a lower cost, sub-standard detergent, I took a friends advice and tried the Pods. For around $.21 per load, our clothes are now super clean,brighter, and smell incredible! With toddlers, and a puppy there is a lot of laundry, and Tide Pods make laundry less of a chore. THANK YOU!
I prefer Tide Pods, because they are an all in one product. Most importantly though, they work! My clothes are clean and stains are gone. I have a front loading washing machine and the convience of just throwing in Tide Pods and knowing my laundry will be stain free and clean means alot. I don't have to go back and re-wash things, they get clean the first time.
I looked up the reviews here to see if anyone else was having my same problem with the pods, and sure enough, here it is. The Tide Pods gave my white jeans purple spots all over them. I rewashed them without detergent and the spots came out but that is more cost to me for having to run the washer/dryer again. They also leave a white residue on clothes that I ended up having to scrub off by hand, which was time consuming. We have 5 teenagers and started using the Pods due to getting tired of cleaning up detergent that was spilled. Looks like we're going back to cleaning up detergent. Thumbs down on this one Tide.
Clogged our LG front load washing Machine and lots of water damage!
man the pods are the best thing since toilet tissue, throw it in the machine and let it go. no more measuring, no more bottles of detergent spilling i love the pods but would love to get coupons for $3.00 or more dollars off tide weekly for these items the pods are great but tide is so expensive when you have a lot of laundry to do
stain clothes, don't clean thoroughly, expensive. A product that is badly executed. I have only used Tide in my home, and I am so disappointed in the general performance of this product. I am no longer a Tide user because of the damage these pods caused to my clothing.
I had purple staining on white clothes. I can't put the pod in and let it dissolve before putting in the clothes, I have a front loader. I tried putting it in the detergent dispenser but it doesn't dissolve all the way. Will go back to liquid.
I have always loved Tide. It works the best and these pods are simple, easy to use. Makes laundry simple and fast and effective. Always put any detergent in the water first, let dissolve and than put in clothes. Your laudry will come out beautiful.
WHEN I START THE WASHER I PUT A POD IN, LET IT AGITATE SO IT BREAKS AND THEN AD MY CLOTHES, I NEVER GET RESIDUE ON ANYTHING. PRETTY SIMPLE....
it seems like the pods don't always dissolve completely. in three separate washes, we found residual from the pod on an item of clothing. We always use cold water and maybe that is why? The residual left on 2 of the pieces even showed some of the blue color. I am sad oit made laundry so easy. I will be going back to using liquids only.
I like the pods BUT I too have the problem of the blue staining some clothes. It's ruined several items so now I only use for dark clothes; which means I have to buy 2 types of detergent. I'm going to look for a different brand of pod, with light colors in the formula.
I love tide pods!!! I have used many , and I do mean many products on my children's cloths only to watch them be ruined, or just not as clean as they are when you first buy them,thought I would give the pods a try since they were on sale, it worked, I throw in a tide pod and 1/2 cup of my cheap non name brand all fabric bleach powder and it even made our old dingy clothes bright and beautiful again, I am hooked for life, yes tide is more expensive but the money I save on buying my kids new outfits every payday just so they have nice new looking clothes equals out to "I am saving more money buying Tide " instead of new clothes My family Loves the Tide pods, please , please please don't ever get rid of them , I have never had a problem with them not dissolving, or getting messed up in the bag,
DO NOT USE on light colors. It discolored my clothing. Very expensive, brand new clothing. It is okay to use on dark dark colors but it leaves stains on my lights. It stained blue streaks. Ive been using Tide for years, never had a problem. Then I decided to try Tide Pods. Big mistake. I will be looking for the receipt to return. NEVER AGAIN.
the pod does not dissolve completely sticks to clothing and leaves blue stain in which I have to hand scrub and rewash more work....front load washer HE
I went to the Tide PODs after using liquid laundry detergent, then ALL PODs. The liquid laudry detergent was painfully heavy in the size I purchased. And if it fell...there goes ten loads spilled... The ALL didn't seem to quite give me that sense of "clean" I like. I used to use Tide in my twenties and thought let me go back to it.... If I find I like it the cost is worth it. Well, I've only had a few not dissolve. Like one other reader my husband actually (sans reading the instructions) placed the PODS in the dispenser without any issues at all. I however still use the drum but may rethink it if I have encounter other non-dissollve issues. We have front load machines. I'm going to write the company and see if they have non-chlorine bleach in an all-in-one detergent. I don't just want brightener I want germ killer too...there is "ick" in certain clothing that needs a little bleach from time to time. I rated it a four for the wasted PODS
I received a sample of Tide Pods and was excited about the way it cleaned. I have grandchildren ranging in age from 18 years to a bun in the oven. I do their laundry when they stay with me and I am thrilled at how clean the clothes are and the odor being gone, especially since they are all boys. It is so easy to use since I don't have to measure. I just open the pack, get out a pod and toss it. How easy can it get?
Purchased you Tide pods (90 I think in jar) and have discovered today that some of the pods leaked and made the other pods in jar stick together and are impossible to separate and therefore impossible to use as intended. A REAL GOOIE MESS. Such a disappointment. I believe your pods need more study before they can be marketable. I placed them on the self in a dry area but the pods did not survive. VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED. About 80 of the pods are useless now.
The pods did not dissolve. I even put it in a cup with hot water to try and dissolve it but it didn’t work. The pods were a great idea but poorly exicuted.
If only the pods cleaned and rinsed out well. I have a front load HE washer and it takes at least two full wash cycles to get all the suds out. And with the second no-detergent-added wash, i see a tub full of suds. Clothes don't come out smelling or feeling as clean as when I used the liquid--and I'll be switching back. The pods dissolved well, but needed hot water. What a disappointment and a waste of money.
I loved the idea of just throwing a pod into the washer....but we have found faint blue stains on several different articles of clothing. Sorry, there will be no more pods in my future. I just hope I can get the stains out so I do not have to throw away the clothing.
Poor Product, non dissolving while leaving residue
I have been a Tide customer for as long as I can remember. Even in my toughest times when I had to count pennies during college, I would purchase Tide over other less expensive laundry detergents because of the proven effective results of Tide over other leading detergents. I've been using Tide in the liquid form until recently when I switched over to the PODS, unfortunately I have been dissapointed with the restults of the residue that is left on the fabric where the POD itself does not COMPLETELY disolve in hot or cold wash of my front load HE LG washer. The convenience of an all in one POD is excelllent, and I will continue to use Tide, however I will return to the liquid form in order to avoid the stuck on residual of the POD packet. I do hope that Tide will take into consideration the customer feedback with regards to the POD and improve on this problem.
I've recently moved to Europe. Here the pod detergents are not new to the market. The thing I realized is that the detergent pods here sold under the brand Ariel has stronger better smell than our Tide Mystic Forest pods that I brought with me from the states. The overall performane of the pods are good even here in Europe in the European washers. I wish it had stronger scent to it. I haven't had any problems with the pods so far. They dissolved all the way through and left no residue on my washer. (Maybe because the washer runs longer here and it has a built in heater so the washer is originally installed to a cold water faucet, it heats up the water itself) The only stain that was hard to be removed for the little pods was a pizza sauce stain on a white table cloth. Even in the hot wash (140 F) it was impossible for Tide to remove it. Overall great product the only thing I need is STRONGER scent!
For you out there thinking that you are getting and easy all in one product with the Tide Pod...your wrong....as I sadly found out. Terrible to NO stain remover, dissolve of pod not great and in general clothes came out just as I put them in!
I threw a Pod into my washer as a last resort for a white baseball cap that my husband wanted clean. I had put it through the dishwasher with dismal results. The Pod wash got it cleaner and brighter than I could have imagined. I have used it since then on other items with stains that had not washed out in previous washes with equally great results. I highly recommend the Pods, but wish they came in a no scent variety.
I read some of the other reviews, and for those who have had problems with the pods not desolving well, i had that happen a couple of times but, have found that when i actually use them in the dispenser they work best. I have a Cabro Washer.
Since all of my children help with or do their own laundry, I was excited about the convenience of Tide Pods for my front loading HE washer. I continually have problems with the pod not dissolving and finding sticky hard gobs on clothing when we pull it out of the dryer. I don't have time to search washed clothing for undissolved packet pieces before drying. The convenience of the product has been negated by the ruined clothing I now have to replace. Going back to Tide liquid.
I have been using the "pods" for nearly a month. i have a front load washer and have NEVER had one instance of the the pod not dissolving, discoloring my clothing, or residue in my washer. I love the product and have switched to only the pods for ease and convenience.
Do not wok leaves blue stains on clothes I use one pod for load.
I love the convenience. I love the way this product makes everything smells and comes out completely clean. I wouldn't use anything else and I have recommended to everyone.
Just purchased a bag of Tide Pods today to change up my normal Tide routine. So upset!! Went home and began washing clothes. Followed directions to the "T" and still found that the pods didn't dissolve in all three of my loads (two loads on HOT). This product is in no way simpler to use and one of my towels had a faded streak on it! Sorry Tide, but I would never buy this product again!!
I was so excited to see this product debut in our local store and I was even more thrilled to start using the product. The concept is great! However, each time I used them I noticed they do not fully dissolve (in all water temps). And like some of the other reviews, I too, noticed the remnants of the pods inside my washer door (initially top load regular and then with the new Front Loader) as well as on the clothes. I unfortunately did not catch one load before putting them into the dryer and got a few stains (blue) on pure WHITE linen and towels. Disappointing. Love the idea though. So please listen to your consumers and make improvements. Thanks.
I loved the idea of only putting one thing in my laundry (I was using liquid with a detergent booster) but the PODs or not dissloving. Some loads go well but in most I find the plastic stuck to a piece of clothing and sometimes the blue detergent is left too. It then takes washing it a few times to get it out and if I don't catch it and the plastic goes through the dryer, its very hard to get off. I have tried hot and cold water, putting it in first with water running before putting clothes in and putting less clothes in, but nothing seems to help. Hopefully they can continue to improve the product...
When I first purchased Tide Pods I was soooo happy with them and loved the idea of just being able to pop them in the washer and not have to mess with liquid ever again. WRONG! After about the 5th or 6th time of purchasing them I have noticed that they adhere to my clothing and if you don't catch it before you put it in the dryer it leaves stains. AND... the last few times I have found the coating on the rubber strip around the inside of the door. ( I have a front loader) This has happened whether I use hot or cold water, small loads or large loads. I LOVE the idea of pods sooooo please, please keep testing!!!
I purchased a large 57 Pod container and love the Mystic Forest scent. However, I wondered why my husband had put two of his shirts in the "donate" pile shortly after I had laundered them. The plastic "goop" ruined his shirts and created holes when he tried to unfold them. I continued to use them, washing a set of double sheets; as I was just making the bed with the sheets, I noticed the plastic "goop" had hardened on both sheets, making them unusable! I have them in the wash now, with very hot water, hoping the "goop" will dissolve so I can put the sheets back on the bed. I'm off to look for the Wal-Mart receipt so I can return the pods to the store for my money back. I WILL NOT BUY THEM AGAIN UNTIL THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN RESOLVED!
The capsule does not dissolve. It ends up stuck to your clothes in a melted mess and sometimes stains the fabric. Great idea but needs further development to be as reliable as regular Tide products.
i have used tide pods successfully for a while, however, recently i bought new towels at jcpenney and they all faded out. after returning and getting a different color they too faded. i came to the tide site to discover it is probably the pods. i will go back to regular liquid tide. i have a new cabrio whirlpool top loader. no problems with goo globs.
The drain pump on my Samsung HE front loader had to be replaced most likely due to the pods. Found a bunch of plastic pod casings when the machine was drained. The repair person said that the Tide Pods don't work well on all front loaders, especially if you do most loads in cold water.
Horrible.. ruined my clothes... Will NEVER use again. Left sticky reside like GLOB (can't get it off the clothes) on a lot of my clothes!!!
The Forest scent pod is horrible. All my clothes ended up smelling like I spilled male cologne on my entire laundry basket!
In theory, I like the Tide PODS. However, they stick together and you can't get them separated without destroying a "glob" of PODS. Our laundry area is in the basement so it's not too hot and it's not too cold. I've read about this problem all over the message boards! I want some coupons for the "real" Tide!!!
I have trouble with the pods sticking to each other. Then when I try to get them apart they rip and fluid goes all over the top of the dryer. I love the boost pods. I don't have the sticking problem with them and I think it is because the boost seems to use heavier plastic. I love the pods I just waste them because of the sticking and tearing. I have quite a lot of liquid in the bottom of the container. HELP!!
I have been buying Tide for over 25 years. I was excited to try the PODS because I liked the idea of having less in the recycle bin, and making it easier for my kids to help with laundry. The PODS were all gelled together, and over half had to be discarded. The few that we could use didn't dissolve correctly leaving gummy deposits on garments and towels. After repeated washing with Liquid Tide, the residue was still there. We had to throw the items away. So not only did I waste money on the product, but I had to replace items as well.
I've been using Tide pods for almost 2 years, and I have never had one issue with pods not dissolving or causing discoloration on my clothing. They make laundry easier... the clothes smell great... and they're economical. I don't use nearly as much soap as I used to when I bought the liquid. I've been reading some of the negative reviews, and I don't know why people are having negative results with Tide pods. I do know that you cannot overload your washer or the pod will not work effectively. Other than that, I intend to continue using Tide pods. They're amazing!
After having used about 15 Tide PODS successfully, and with good results, one ruined my daughter's knit sweater today. It's such a shame. I followed the limited directions on the package and the purple sweater came out with several bright yellow spots. It looks like bleach damage. I cannot continue to use these and will take the remainder of the carton (about 40 left) back to Kroger. I cannot continue to use them because I do not know when they will do this again.
Let me re-cap quickly. Tide pods destroyed 3 different sets of costly (thanks for the dis-coloring), basketball uniforms (thanks for the blue stains all over them) that I can't replace, countless number of socks, t-shirts, and miscellaneous clothes. I feel like such a fool for trusting Tide and even more of a fool for not realizing how much it was destroying. I will never ever buy a Tide or P&G product again. These items don't dissolve and please, Tide, don't respond with your canned messages on tips that I should wash in warmer water when it's cold - I live in Southern California for gosh sakes and you indicate on your package that it WILL DISSOLVE. Not true.
I bought the tide pods, they fused together & I had to use multiple pods for one load or try & sit & peel them apart which did not work. Very disappointed Will not be buying them again
I recently bought a new front loading washer & dryer. Tide Pods has made the laundry "chore" so simple. Toss in a pod....throw in your clothes....press start. I don't need to use dryer sheets anymore. My clothes smell so good. Thanks Tide!!!
My husband is a marine mechanic and between gear oil and brake clean his cloths are pretty funky. I have always used Tide and when the pods came out I fell in love with Tide all over again! I personally see that the pods clean his clothes better than liquid Tide. I have not had any of the pods not disolve, I use a top load machine. Now, I know you cannot add before clothes in a front loader, but since I am using a top load I add the pods then start machine filling before I add the clothes. I really really like the pods and I hope they keep this product around!
I got angry at my wife when I found a sticky glob on my towel. I thought it was chewing gum. My wife said it was Tide Pods. She has used Tide exclusively for many years and was disappointed that the "Pods" created such a mess. It is a bad product and I told my wife that Tide may not be the best product to use.
as i was reading the reviews im glad it wasnt just me who has ruined about 200.00 worth of clothes and bedding thanks to the tide pods that didnt disolve in the washer and went in to the dryer and dried on the clothes and blankets, i just bought a new front load lg washer and dryer...my concern is that your dont use these in them they do NOT disolve like they say they do...
Years ago, I switched to inexpensive powders and liquids and paid the price with dingy whites and stains that just wouldn't some out. Then I saw the ads for PODS - and I thought, how stupid. Then I tried them. Our clothes smell great, and the whites have brightened substantially. This makes it fast for me, and easy for my kids when its time to swap the laundry. I was also told by our Maytag repairman that the PODS are the best thing you can use because incorrectly adding too much detergent can cause the seals of a front loader to grow dry and brittle. I don't know why some people are having problems with them not dissolving completely, I've used these now for a year and never had that problem UNLESS my washer was messed up. But I know why their washers are smelling bad - that's a front load washer problem. Our first front loader was disgusting to smell and after buying the second, I finally discovered you should ALWAYS leave the door to a front loader open when it is not in use so the remaining moisture in the drum doesn't sour. ;) I've not had any problems with my second front loader smelling bad and we never ever close the door unless its in use.
I have been using the Pods for a couple months in a standard washing machine. I have never had a problem with them ruining clothes or not dissolving, and I always wash in cold water. Now, today my front load washer gets delivered and the first thing I'm going to do is start washing clothes. I will review again if I find a problem. The lady at Sears didn't recommend the Pods in a front load, but everything I've seen on the internet says they will work just fine.
I bought the pods looking forward to the ease of pods. What a huge disappointment. I have 4 ruined pieces of clothing and 1 sheet that I cannot use due to undissolved pods that I missed and went into the dryer. There were 3 other items that I caught and didn't get dried. These things are not dissolving in my HE front loader, even on small loads. Probably lost $100 worth of laundry. Also did not do well on a piece of laundry that was smelly. Came out of the wash still stinky! What a waste. They need to be removed from the shelves or designated only for top loading regular washers. I'm going back to the liquid.
When I married my husband, he demanded using Tide for the laundry. So I switched and I liked the smell. The clothes got clean and when you came out with Tide Pods, I changed. The question is why does the Tide Pods not smell like Tide. I am not fond of the new scents. Please make the pods smell like the liquid,
I have always bought cheap laundry soap (purex)..But i just bought these just to try because i tend to waste laundry soap and these are easy to throw in the washer and be done ..and i am so glad i did these are so amazing because my clothes smell great and feel better after i wash them i will never buy anything else besides tide pods ...worth the extra little bit of money for sure because you spend so much for clothes love love love!
My wife bought the Tide Pods thinking this would be an easy and quick way to do laundry while running our home with 5 children and 3 adults. Her time is very valuable. However, after using this product we found blue stains on our clothes from the detergent in these Pods. Also the plastic exterior only desloved 2 out of 5 loads. Many of our clothes have been ruined because of the stains left by these non working Pods.
The pod package says specifically that you can use either top or front loading machines and that the pods will dissolve in any temperature of water. Then why is it that every time I use a pod it gets fused to one article of clothing? I am also seeing that because it does not dissolve it is leaving blue stains on my other clothes. I am not impressed.
My husband and I have been very loyal tide customers and wanted to try the new POD product. We have tried it for 2 weeks, and now the washing machine absolutely STINKS. We have never had an issue with the washing machine stinking in the past. It is a musky odor. We have tried bleach, vinegar etc, but nothing cuts it. And now it is getting into our clothes. I found it interesting that now tide is selling a product to get washing machine odors. Funny - I wouldn`t need to buy that if I didn`t buy the PODs in the first place.
i hav been using tide pods for a almost a year and i love them i will not use anything else from now on. i have never had any that have not disolved. my whites are whiter and my colors are brighter i have saved money i no longer have to buy clorox 2 or stain remover and i dont use fabric softner because the pods leave my clothes smellin great
I love the convenience of the Tide pods, as a busy mom who works two jobs, I look for the little things to make my housekeeping tasks effective and efficient. I thought I had that with Tide Pods, until I discovered they no longer dissolve in the washer machine, I find there is no "fresh" scent and don't see a lot of suds. I think its time to scap the pods as I now have to waste even more time looking through my wash to ensure the pod did disolve and I have to shake the bin each week to "try" to prevent them from sticking and breaking apart, which then leads to another mess/ task of cleaning all the pods and the mess it made on the floor and washing machine. Looks like Tide took some short cuts. Not so sure I wan to trust Tide with my laundry anymore.
I have personally used about 120 Pods, and my girlfriend has used over 200. We have never ran into the issues of staining or not dissolving I see mentioned by some users; but we followed the directions on the package to place the Pod in the washer, start the water, then add clothes. It could be that I am using a 18 year old washing machine, and it just does a better job, or it may be the product really does need to be used as the directions say to use them.
I like most people have used the pods and have noticed that after drying my clothes on article in particular had a hardspot on it after drying. At first I was angry that my favorite hoodie was ruined but upon closer inspection I realized that it was just dried detergent. I ran it under some water in the sink rubbing it together until it all dissolved and then air dried it. My hoodie is perfectly fine.
I grew up with Tidealways a great product, one that could always be trusted. Now I just toss them in the wash,, and go. The past 6 months have been the worst washes possible. I would always just load the dryer from the washer, never thinking. Now I am checkjng for wadded up sticky pods. Who would not trust Tide after all they always had a great product. Next I see coming the down the pipe product line is UNgunk the Pod This would now become next great product, So long, Tide Pods. Call me when you get back, to your old self..
I have used a couple packages of your new pods. They do not completely disssolve and leave a film. .I washed a pair of new slacks that are machine washable. The pod did not dissolve and the "plastic" was melted on my one of the legs of my pants in the dryer which I will now need to go replace. Tell me how I can restore my pants and how to prevent this from happening again.
I am a bachelor and use a public laundry center in my apartment complex. I used the Pods on the recommendation of a friend. I noticed several articles of clothing with hardened plastic embedded in the fibers. I got angry at the facility thinking the machines were no taken care of. Come to find out, the Pods were not dissolving right. I had to apologize to the landlord.
I just recently started using the "pods" and thought I had found a great product.... But NO... After washing and drying a load of brand new jeans, there is now hard bits of plastic stuck all over them! 300.00 in jeans! I was told to keep soaking them in water and it "should" go away? why should I have to go though all the trouble when thats why I buy your product to do a good job on my laundry? I was told they would replace my detergent.... But what about my cloths? I will defenetly be replacing my brand of detergent!
I agree with those reviews regarding the pods that do not dissolve. Just last week, i bought a new pack of tide pods and did my laundry this week end. I noticed that blue sticky plastic is on my clothes and they are working clothes. Never had this problems when i first started using tide pods 2 months ago. did you change something? You should do anything that would alter what have been a good product.
i started using the pods and now i have ruined about 3 shirts of my husband, 4 of his pullovrs, two of my bowling shirts, jeans and my sports pants, it is awful because i did not know to check to see where the little plastic cover was going to be i have always just shook out the articles of clothing and put them in the dryer but doing so i ruined the items i am a tide user but if it is not the powder i will not be us8ing it again
The pods used to work great. My favorite black Old Navy Fleece Pants got destroyed. I thought maybe someone put glue or gum in the washing machine, but after reading these reviews, I see it was from the Pods. I want to be reimbursed for the cost of my favorite pants!!!! Or at least send me a sample of a product that will get the stiff white residue off of them.
I have always used Tide, my husband works in construction so Tide works great on getting stubborn stains out. I also have kids and it works great on their clothes as well. Here recently I have noticed blue stains on our clothes and sticky stuff on them as well. After accusing my son of leaving gum or candy in his pockets I realized that it was from the Tide Pods that I was using. I have ruined numorous items from the Pods not dissolving properly and I will no longer be using this product due to the fact that I cannot afford to purchase new clothes every time I wash. This was a great product at one time but not anymore. Don't change something that is working.
I used to love my pods now I hate them. They are not dissolving. They are staining my clothes if I do not catch the article of clothing that the pod is stuck to before putting it in the dryer. Tide must have changed something just not dissolving like they used too. Worst part just bought a mega pack at Costco.
We live in an apartment and for YEARS I would take my big container of generic liquid detergent down to the laundry room. It was heavy, messy, frequently fell off of a full basket, and I felt like I was probably using more detergent than I needed. Then Tide Pods came out and laundry became enjoyable again! I just toss a pod in my pocket along with quarters and I'm good to go. If I am doing a load of my kids' clothing I also toss in a stain boost pod, so easy! I have never had a problem with staining, and only once did the "plastic" not dissolve completely (we were washing a comforter, and I think there wasn't enough room left for the water to flow properly). Pods make laundry so much easier for me I doubt I will ever stop using them, even after we move into our house. These things are awesome!
I wanted to love these pods - so easy and you don't have a cup to clean out. However, recently I started to get dark blue stains on a few items. And there have been hard plastic-like residue sticking to items. At first I thought that someone was wrong with the washer or something was in pockets. But then it happened on a load of sheets. After a little investigating I became suspicious that it was the Tide pods. Sure enough I look at reviews and others have the same problem. I don't mind paying more for convenience, but now it has destroyed my new Jennifer Adams sheets, towels and some clothes!!
I love the Tide PODS. Easy to use and superior cleaning results. I have a new HE top loading machine and have never experienced any of the negative things I have read here. You have to start the water and put the pod in the machine before the items being washed. That's how the pod dissolves. It won't dissolve properly if you throw it in on top of the dry laundry.
Up until recently you would have gotten a five star rating from me ...but....Recently I have noticed that the pods are NOT disintegrating the way they - were- / were intended to- NOW - frequently the pods leave a dark blue stain on clothes - however you have altered these pods - please stop. Up until quite recently I have been extremely happy with the quality of these pods and more importantly - the results- right now - I'm trying to figure out how to get the blue out of the clothes - and yes I am sure it's the pods - I'm finding the " plastic " wrapper (as it were ) in the washer after the cycle is completed.....
It's really a good product for people who like an easy solution except that I found the plastic clear portion sometimes does not dissolve completely. I have had a few shirts ruined that way because I did not notice the clear film before I dried it. It does not happen often but it is something I worry about every time.
One does a whole large load. If I have a garment or two with a tough stain, I'll add 2 pods. Ocean Mist is the best!
so disappointed. Tide usually a good product. Cannot dissolve in front loading washer. tried tying in a washcloth, tried putting in a sock. Still had plastic sticky residue on my laundry, not just the washcloth or sock. Did not matter if using hot or cold water, still had consistent sticky stuff.
I'm into Tide, always have been. I grew up poor and still am poor, at 54 years old, but have always spent the extra money on Tide. I was very excited to check out the new pod but please believe this consumer when i tell you the pod does not dissolve good, it is destroying clothes and it is hurting the Tide name. Please dont let that happen.
I highly recommend Tide Boost Pre-Treat Spray. It is a great stain fighter. I have used it on set in stains that I had used another pre-treat product and Tide Boost removed the stain. It has saved several items of clothing I thought were permanently stained. I followed the directions on the Tide Boost Pre-treat Spray and to my amazement the stain was gone, I couldn't be more pleased.
Tide is the only detergent that doesn't make my allergies so crazy. No more rash! The pods make it easy to make sure I am using the right amount so I don't have the left over residue that can cause those rashes. The pods make it easy to just throw them in and walk away. I like the liquid ones best as the powder ones don't always fall apart like they should. However, Tide did offer to replace those, but I figured as long as my clothes were clean, why waste time. they still got my clothes clean!!
I have always used Tide after I got my HE washer a couple of years ago. Love the smell and always cleans well. So, I decided to try the Pods even though there isn't one with the Downey scent. Overall, they are very easy and quick to use. BUT... they may need to get back to the lab about the way they dissolve. Every couple loads there is "detergent gunk" on some article of clothing. I always rewash the item and so far the gunk has come out, but kind of a hassle to rewash what just came clean from dryer. I think P&G is a great company but just tweak this one thing and it would be 5 stars!
I love this product, I use the Spring Meadow, my clothes smell clean longer. Really like being able just to toss the pod in my front load machine without having to measure out anything! Clothes come out clean and fresh!
I bought the 90 count pods for the first time and the container I bought the pods were all stuck together. They were not cut aprt when being made, it is a mess they have leaked all over the container and I have to use 2 for some loads due to the leaking. some I even had to throw away. Dissapointed.
I used these pods several times and the results went from bad to worse. The first time nothing seemed to smell like it had just been washed. The second time the pods did not devolve all of the way and ended up embedded into a $60 tee shirt that I have. I tried to get it out and was able to remove the solid parts but there is still stain. Another shirt in the same load has a nice bright blue stain now as well. I would never buy this product. I think it should be removed from store shelves. Come om P&G a great company that is taking something simple and making a freaking mess of it. Trust me poor innovation is no substitute for a high quality, reliable product. Now I will not buy Tide I will go to something that has worked in the past.
I followed the directions very carefully. There have been several instances where the product did not disolve propertly ruining a few items. I did put the affected items through a second rinse, but still did not have the results I wanted as residue remained. This is a very inferior product and I will not take another chance with my laundry. Its expensive to have to re-wash your clothes. I hope Tide pulls this product immediately and/or offers a refund. Unfortunately, I purchased the large container at Costco's and am now stuck with it. I have been a faithful user of Tide, so will go back to the former HE liquid products, but that doesn't help me with the products that were ruined. What a disappointment!!.
the tide pods are the only thing that my family uses, my husband lays tile for a living and I could never get all the grout and other things off his clothes. I tried tide and it works amazing! Thank you tide :)
I only us Tide laundry detergent . I decided to switch to the pods because I thought it would be easier... They do not always dissolve well and they leave a hard plastic on the clothes ...the pods also ruined my brand new sheets. My sheets looked bleached.. I will switch back to tide liquid now.. I do not recommend this product at all .. I am very disappointed with Tide
The label said it was fine for HE washers. I have a 4 year old Maytag Duet washer. The pods make WAY too many suds. Now I have a huge container of Ocean Mist pods that I cannot use. I love Tide products but these pods are not for my washer. Back to liquid HE Tide. Disappointed.
I have been using the Pods for 2 months now, and I have no problem with them. Matter of fact I love them. I have 3 frontloads, and used them in all three, I make sure I put the pod in first in the center of the drum, than put the clothes on top of the pod. I use warm water wash, and even did a load in cold water and had no problem with the pods dissolving. I am looking forward to Tide Totalcare coming in Pods, can't wait. I hope Tide co. will make them in all the different kinds of Tide detergent.
We just purchased a new Samsung front loader. We had a new pack of Tide Pods from our previous washer and liked their convenience. However, We have now used our new washer twice wtih the pods and found them only partially dissolved in the detergent tray. Its too bad becasue now we have a bunch of pods we can't use. Both Tide and the Samsung sites said the pods would be okay but obviously they were wrong.
I love using tide ipod. I love how it smells!!!!!!!
The product leaves heavy plastic and glue-like stains and purple/blue residue when washing dark clothes or light cycles. I'm not sure why, but the product doesn't seem to break down completely and adheres to clothing. I had one brand new sweater ruined (we weren't sure what it was)... and now have realized after two more episodes that it is the pods. We like the ease of use, and 90% of the time the product worked well. However, as we can't afford to have our detergent ruin expensive clothing, we are not going to buy the product anymore. Message to Tide... fix this stuff. It isn't worth the hit your customers are taking because the product wasn't fully tested.
Not sure why the complaints, unless front loading machines are different. Start the water, put the pod in, add the clothes. Never once had a problem with undissolved pods in my top loading machine. Super convenient and the clothes come out great!
So disappointed with this product. Have always thought of Tide as one of the premium detergents. But these are horrible. And it took me about 4 loads to figure out the culprit. The plastic casing does NOT dissolve completely. And I did not realize until the loads came out of the dryer. When the undisolved casing makes it through your dryer it hardens a sticky wad of plastic into something resembling super glue. If you dont catch it before the dryer, your clothes/linens will be totally RUINED. Perhaps the plastic goo could be rinsed when it is still wet, but once it goes in the dryer it will never come out. When I tried to pull the hard plastic apart it actually ripped the fabric. It is like hard plastic purple/bluish super glue. And I always wash in warm with a warm rinse. And I do not run overfull loads. I have a front loading HE. I will never use these again & warn everyone else to stick to the liquid. I wouldn't use these if they were given to me for free. Very disappointed at the various ruined clothes & linens. Tide should pull this product.
Tide Pods are awful, stained and ruined our clothes.
Our family made the mistake of trying Tide pods after the Christmas holiday. My husband got a some very nice performance fleece pants and shirts. We used the pods for weeks with no problem. All of a sudden the load with the fleece came out of the dryer with dried plastic all over it. It seemed to stick mainly to the fleece items but ruined pants and socks as well. We didn't know where the plastic had come from till we looked under the light and saw the ultra violet color to the plastic. Now my husbands new fleece is ruined and can not be replaced because these types of items are seasonal and no longer available in stores. My husband was very disappointed...thanks so much for ruining his Christmas.
love tide brand laundry soap but the pods left stains on our clothes,they are convieint but not worth the extra work of getting the stains out after using.
First time i used pods it didnt seem to breakdown all the way. From that point on i put the pod under where the water flows in to the machine and have had no issue since. Works like a champ.
Have used it several times, but I am getting marks on some clothing. Is the POD suppose to dissolve before loading clothes? I have 'splotch' marks on a few clothing items and a towel appears to have 'bleach' markings on it. I like the convience of the product, but if it continues to ruin my clothes, I will go back to the liquid.
It does what it says! I start my washer and then drop in the pod letting it desolve. Then I add my clothes. Not only with the pods but with the liquid and or powder. Laundry 101. It prevents staining and powder residue. Hope this helps. Happy Washing!
They exploded all over my clothes several times now, ruining my clothes. Just now I just took my wash out and the blue completely dyed my white work shirt. They constantly explode ruining clothes, and make clothes feel gross. I love Tide, but will be going back to regular detergent by them instead.
I liked at first, thought it was great I did not over use. But now I get blue stains on my cloths. I have to keep re-washing. Had to go back to the regular liquid Tide.
I have switched back to HE liquid. The pods get caught in the shoulders of blouses and if not caught, the dryer melt them into the material. It took me weeks to figure out why my shirts were wrecked. Tide HE is fantastic and I should have never switched.
I Love the pods. My husband is in the military and comes home covered in grease and i use tide pods to wash his uniforms, i would recommend to a friend and i have to other military wife's. LOVE THEM!!!!
Convenient - yes, but it left gooey purple stuff on several items of clothing, including a brand new sweater, dress pants and a sheet. Will not buy anymore, nor use the ones I have left.
I was a laundry soap swapper until tide pods came out. I won't buy anything else and my whole family is in agreement on that every one is quick to remind me if we are down to a handful of pods to pick some more up. Before they would never say don't forget the tide but now the guys do. I find it amazing that one little product could get the boys in the family to request it by name for the shopping list!
I have always used Tide. But recently I used the pods recently and I would like to say my clothes come out clean and smell fresh. All you have to do is toss one in and let it do its job. Keep coming up with great prodcuts!
Okay I have used this product for several months now. I live with other people and have noticed more and more that my clothing and more importantly my Expensive sheets are fading.... it almost looks like bleach spots. I first ruined a load of t-Shirts.... Very strange but I thought maybe someone used bleach in the load before.... To my surprise, I have ruined 3 sets of nice sheets...... I Love tide and their products.... it is a great brand with a mostly great reputation. I am quite particular when it comes to doing laundry... and I ALWAYS put the pod in first and start the water on at least warm to help the Pod get started.... that just made sense to me.... I have always used these in a front loader washer and I have suffered the discolored clothing/sheets in both. Again, Love Tide but not using or recommending this product to anyone...Please fix this before others ruin their clothing too. :(
I used the Tide Pods detergent save space and time for doing my landry. The pods don't delute well in the machine it left spots all over my clothes. I was very disappointed because it messed up some of my favortive clothes. I tried to re-wash them and the spots still didn't come out!!
Not happy with this product. I have been using Tide Pods for a few months now. I thought how easy to use and just the right amount to go in each load. Well since I have been using these my washer is getting more clogged. My washer is about 6 months old and should NOT be clogged. As this is the only product I have been using so these little pods are not desolving properly! I am now having to go back to liquid once more... so much for a "great" idea... ruins the washer in the long run!
I have been using Tide Pods for the last 6 months and highly recommend to friends. My husband is a mechanic and tide is the only detergent that gets his clothes clean. I enjoy the pods because I have limited space for detergent bottles. The tide pod container is easier to dispose of then the large detergent bottles. I have never noticed any stains left from pods.
I had used the pods for a few weeks without problems and then today had a horrible stain on a maroon sheet. I washed it again with regular Tide but the stain won't come out and the sheet is ruined. I won't be using the pods any more because i don't want to risk ruining any more items.
At first I was excited about trying this new and easy product. But after numerous loads with pods stuck to and ruining some of my clothes, I am searching for a new product. Your research team needs to get back to the lab so that the pod actually "dissolves in all temperatures" as advertised when mixed with clothing.
I purchased a 3 pack of 35 package pods from Sam's club for a total of 105 pods. I have used tide since I was old enough to do my own laundry. It was all my mother every used. I didn't think that I would have to do a trial run.I have a front loader washing machine. These things are terrible. The leave a sticky mess on just about everything. Socks,under clothes,sheets, and much more. Now I'm stuck with a bad product. Thanks tide for being my trusted laundry detergent.
This product does not dissolve and leaves blue spots on my white clothes. I didn't notice that the pod didn't dissolve until folding my clothes (after putting them through the dryer). The blue spots partially came out when I washed them again in water, but I was very disappointed in the product. I'm returning them and buying a different brand.
I LOVED THE IDEA OF THIS PRODUCT AND AS SOON AS I WAS ABLE TO I BOUGHT IT FOR MY HOUSEHOLD. I WAS TELLING EVERYBODY ABOUT IT BUT THEN I DISCOVERED THAT IT DOES NOT DELUTE RIGHT IN THE WATER AND LEAVES SPOTS ON MY CLOTHES. I DO NOT THINK I WOULD BUY THIS AGAIN. GOING BACK TO MY LIQUID TIDE.
Was not going to listen to all of the bad reviews, wanted to try it out for myself. BELIEVE THE BAD REVIEWS. Tried the pods 3 different ways. 1. putting in the drum before adding clothes 2. putting in the despenser 3. putting on top of clothes. Didn't make any difference. Still did not fully disolve and made more work for me in the long run trying to get out the stains the pod left behind. And barely left any scent at all to the laundry.
What is wrong with Tide. My clothes no longer have that fresh clean smell. I have used the pods for many many months and this last container i purchased can not be the same tide. Something has been changed in the making of the product or omitted in the making. I have stopped using Tide and started back with Gain.
Ive been using Tide pods for a few months and have come to love them. However, I just got a brand new high efficiency washer and have found that the pods do not dissolve completely! No matter which water temp setting I use, I wind up with a blue sticky residue on a couple items of clothing in the load. I'm disappointed, as the pods are so easy & mess free. Not anymore. Back to liquid I go.
Was sadly disappointed- undissolved pod in warm H2O left in rubber liner of front loader or worst, stuck in clothing-YIPES! convenience has not served and now back to liquids 1,2,3 :( more recent ratings seem better-is there new formulation????hopefully y'all are getting it with as many poor reviews
I have used Tide detergent for years and love it. Tide removes stains better than any other detergent on the market. However, I bought Tide Pods expecting the same results I get with regular detergent and was very disappointed. The Tide pods did not dissolve completely ruining my husband's favorite shirt. I have had to wash the same loads over and over again to get the detergent out from the pods not dissolving correctly. I would stick with Tide's regular detergent.
Can the pods go bad, or spoil? My clothes do not have a good smell when done. I've even cleaned my front loader in case that was the problem, but it didnt help. Never had the problem before just with this last container of pods.
I am very disappointed in the pods!! I have brand new towels that have lost color! If you have any insight on this please let me know because I am frustrated!!
I loved the PODS after I received a free sample. They are so easy to use and my clothes were cleaner and brighter than I had seen in a long time. Unfortunately, I just got a new machine with the water smart sensor and find that the PODS are not dissolving completely. Back to the liquid detergents...
I love Tide but I've had clothes ruined from the pod not completely dissolving. I have a Kenmore HE front loader and thought these would be great because of the convenience of not having to measure the liquid. I think Tide needs to do a little more research as to how to make these perform like they claim that they do.
I'm not sure how, but the bag got moisture in it. Now, all the pods are stuck together. When I try to separate some of them, they "pop" all over...making things worse. Not sure that I will get these again. I had such high hopes. They seem to clean the laundry ok. We don't have extremely dirty laundry for the most part. I will probably just use the powder from now on....unless there is something I did wrong??? Dee
We've used Pods with NO PROBLEMS until the last package. Now, we're having clothes ruined by undissolved Pods! We're washing the same way we always have. Something's gone wrong in production. Please figure it out. Thanks.
Just started to use the Tide pods & I absolutely love them. They have made my laundry duties so convenient, and they launder better than anything else. Our clothes seem cleaner, fresher, brighter, and softer, than ever before. Something happened to me since switching to theses magical pods, I now love doing the laundry, miracle.So love this product I am telling everyone!!!!
I am not sure how the people are using them that are having problems but I have never had a pod not work since using them when they 1st came out. Living in an apartment with laundry in basement it is so easy not to carry heavy bottles of liquid. Best idea ever. Dont let the "not diluting remarks" sway you, not being used right.
I only wash in cold water and the TIDE PODS work great!!
I think that pods are too sudsy for HE washers, they are problably better for top loaders. Does anyone have this complaint? I love the smell though, and they do clean well. I dissolve the pods in warm water, before I put the clothes in. I would give it a higher rating if they were not so sudsy.
I really like how long your clothes smell so nice. It is very refreshing. Simple and easy to just plop in the washing machine with out measuring anything.
All my whites and light colors were covered in permanent blue stains. After two more washings the stains still remain
I've unfortunately had the same experience with blue gummy stains as many here. They were not permanent, I was able to soak the clothes and scrape the solid portions off. It took a few times to realize it was the pods causing this. It would have saved quite a bit of hassle if I'd realized sooner. When they do dissolve fully, they seem to do a fine job cleaning and I like how they smell. For my cold washes, I now use something else and save these for my hot water loads only. No sense at all to have to dissolve first, and then add, as some here have recommended. It defeats the whole purpose of having a 'pod.' I still like Tide and am willing to bet they aren't the only company with the pod problem. So, I'm disappointed. It is a good idea, but still needs some work. Changing to warmer water settings is unrealistic for most of my work clothes. I don't pack the washer, but I do fill it, and don't have any problems with other detergent types. I'll use up what I have left in my hot washes and I won't buy these again.
To all of the users below me who are saying that the tide pods ruined your clothes, you have to put the tide pod in the laundry first and let the water run before you put your clothes in, that way the tide pod will dissolve. if you have a machine where the water doesnt start until you close the lid, than squeeze the pod and break it before tossing it in the washer. if you wait till all the clothes are in the washer and then put the pod on top, this is where you are left with the blue sticky stuff because it is not dissolving quick enough! I am in college and these are great and so convenient! They are so easy! I wish they had these when I was 10 and learning to do laundry!
I've used Tide Pods since they were released in this area. I follow the directions and use only cold water and have never had a problem. They are wonderful, they clean well and my clothes smell fresh and clean. I would recommend it to anyone.
After reading many of these reviews I cannot understand why the tide PODS users who are disappointed in the product are not thinking that it may be a problem with their washing machine? I have used Tide Pods since they were on the shelves of my supermarket and I would not consider any other product. They work Beautifully and never have I had a problem with blue stains or the plastic adhering to my clothes. My only disappointment in Tide is that they do not yet make the pods for their VIVID detergent. When they do that will be the only detergent I buy. Yes!! no more detergent for whites and another for darks. Hurry up Tide!
I'm a nurse and have to wear white scrubs. The pods have left brown spots all over my scrubs:( loved the convenience of them...but has cost me 3 sets of scrubs:( I have also had problems w the shell not completely dissolving.. And sticking to my clothes:(
I really wanted to like these pods. They are super convenient (especially since I live in a high rise and the laundry room is on a different floor), are very economical, and smell great. Unfortunately, in every load of laundry in which I have used the pods, I have had a piece of clothing ruined because the outer plastic failed to dissolve completely. For instance, in one load the outer covering ended up in a sleeve, effectively fusing the sleeve closed. I wash my laundry warm and hot, so there shouldn't be problems--Tide advertises that the pods can be used in both hot and cold water. The product seems to be faulty in this regard. Until I use up my supply, I will be cutting the pods open and throwing the covering away. I will not buy the pods ever again.
Do not use in cold water, it never dissolves. I have to smash it every time with my hand or the blue stains light colored clothing. They need to fix this. It works great on warm and hot temps, but they really need to correct the cold water problem as their statement of working in hot and cold is not accurate.
I got a free sample of the Tide Pods and I love them. An quick and easy way to add detergent/softener etc. in one pod! It keeps the clothes looking like new also! I will continue to use these for my laundry!
the pods are great for full loads, but I rarely have a full load other than sheets and towels. Would like to see smaller pods for light loads and maybe use two for the bigger loads. I like the nice scent - not overpowering. Have not noticed any problems with dissolving. I use warm to barely warm water.
I love these little pods they are so convenient, they clean the clothes and leave them smelling so good.What I like most is if its 72 counts that's 72 washes. I never double up on my pods because one a load does the job for me. I just want more fresh scents.
I'm a long distance trucker looking for an easy solution to carrying liquids and powders in the truck. Pods look like an ideal solution, taking the place of a two products I would use for an optimal wash, a detergent and a brightener like OxyClean. But according to the reviews, the outer part of the pod doesn't dissolve fully and melts into your clothes permanently, ruining them. Then the bluing agent may also not dissolve, ruining your clothes even more. A lovely idea, poorly executed. Didn't you people do your research? I'm not buying junk like this.
I have always used tide detergent. I have on occasion tried other brands but were not completely satisfied. Recently I purchased tide pods. I thought it would be much easier to use being that everything was pre measured and all you had to do was drop it in the washer. I am not totally convinced this is a good choice for me. After having to discard a few articles of clothing belonging to myself and my family thinking the kids had put bubble gum or glue in their pockets...I have to realize the pods were it completely dissolving in the wash. I even tried adding an extra rinse cycle and lightening my loads. I does not happen all the time but still does. I will still use tide...but I am switching back to the liquid and powder I would normally purchase. I am not convinced tide pods are right for the front loader machines.
i have been using tide pods for a couple of months. im very satisfied. it gets my clothes clean. and i dont have any problems with not dissolving in any temp water. i will continue to these pods. and i never had it stick together in the container either.
I started using Tide pods about 3 months ago and I will continue to use it from now on. I have always used Tide liquid detergent and decided to try the pods with amazing results. My laundry smelled wonderful and was clean with no residue. I have read the reviews about the plastic package not disolving but I have not had this problem...although I do not use a high efficiency washer (uses much less water)
I have used Tide detergent for many years and have been very satisfied with the product. However, I decided to try the Tide Pods. I purchased the Pods 2 weeks ago and have been very disappointed in them. The first thing I noticed is a plastic residue in my washing machine because the plastic coating did not disapate during the cycle. Now today, I was doing my light colored sheets and my light load of laundry and there is blue dye stains all over my laundry from the blue rince agent. I guess this is a lesson learnt. I will not purchase the Tide Pods again. I will use what I have for dark colored loads to use what I have left. I sure hope the blue stains come out of my clothes; if not I guess I'm out a couple of hundred dollars to replace what is stained. I will continue to use Tide Laundry Detergent (liquid form). Very disapponted in your Tide Pods.
I1st got Pods for my RV washer so I wouldnt spill on carpets but clothes got so clean & bright I continue to get them in my main home in my HE front load washer.Love'em!!
I bought the Tide pods a week ago and the first time I used them when washing new clothes from christmas. Bad idea!! my daughters new american eagle jeans are ruined because the plastic pod did not disolve and it melted to her jeans. they now have a hard plastic and blue stain on them.
I live with Earl 48, Earl Jr 14, and Kobe 11...the "tide pods" are my EYES to make sure that my husband & sons do not kill the clothing or washer. Eye Love It! Eye Pods!
I have had the same "disappointing" issues with the tide pods as most people here. I simply won't buy them again (problem solved). What I'm really upset about is the LAME responses from Tide Customer service, especially this one, "product was extensively tested". As far as I'm concerned and most importantly YOUR customers are the real testers and the determining factor if your product gets a thumbs up or a thumbs down, as of now my thumb is point South. I hope to see you LISTEN and take YOUR customers and product more serious.
I will not by this product in the future. I have had many issues with the pods. They have ruined clothes. Now to get rid of them I dissolve them in the washer before putting in any clothes. I have to keep it under the water and squeeze it when it gets soft. Tide needs to do further testing on this product. It does not work well. Stay away from the pods!
I have 7 in my household, So laundry is a must everyday.. I was spending lots of money on the cheaper brands and using way too much to get the clothes clean and smelling fresh. I tried the pods a few months ago. Wanting to control the amount of detergent I was going through and the amount of money I was spending weekly for a 96 load jug.. I Love them.. As long as I do not overload the washer, I have only had one load of clothes that I found the pod in tact but the detergent was dispersed. I have gone through 2 of the 72 loads and 1 of the refill packs. Now I can even ensure a load is done correctly with my kids doing laundry. I always drop the pod in the stream of water coming in the washer. Maybe a hint for those of you having issues of them not dissolving. Thank you for developing these little wonders..
I typically love Tide products but this detergent leaves me very disappointed in the lack of quality that I come to expect from Tide. I recently removed a load of laundry from the dryer, only to find that the pod did not dissolve in the washer like it is expected to do and was instead melted to my pillow cases, which were also discolored! I always wash my clothing in warm water so I am at a loss as to how this could have happened. I was unsuccessful in my many attempts to remove the product... If anyone has any ideas as to how I might be able to get this off, I would very much appreciate your ideas because these pillowcases were not cheap. Very Disappointed!!
Bought tide pods for new washing machine....stuck to all the clothes and left a sticky goo on the clothes..had to rewash with another detergent.....waste of money and time.
I purchased the largest package of Pods and only did about 5 loads of clothes and decided to not use the pods any further. My problem is not the Pods sticking together in the packaging as some people are suggesting.....it is the Pods do not dissolve at all! I did it like the directions said., Also the package says it will dissolve in all water tempertures, I tried cold, warm, and hot! I tried to dissolve the pod in a jar first and the Pod still didn't dissolve all the way. It left such a mess on my clothes, blue stains, sticky stuff on the clothes. If you didn't see it before you put it in the dryer, you had a huge baked on mess when you took the clothes out.. Then it is extremely hard to remove the hard plastic on the clothes. I quit after 5 loads. Not worth all the headaches rewashing, removing stains, etc. Now what do I do with my 96 Pod container? It cost alot of money.
I always seem to use too much tide in my laundry and my clothes smell waay to strong. I was excited about the Pods because I could better control how much detergent to use. Anyways I bought the Tide Pods and the next day went to use them and they were all melted together and when I tried to take some apart that were lose a Pod squirted on my brand new pants and after washing the pants twice there is a huge stain on them from the Pods. I am so bummed but I will just have to stick to the liquid soap from now on...
I have just read through a lot of the postings here, and the responses from TIDE customer service. I am not sure what is going on - my pods are kept cool and dry, are not stuck, broken or damaged in any way. I have used them on cold water, warm and hot washes - and they still do not completely dissolve - instead they get trapped in the door of the front loader, and then stick to laundry as I am trying to take it out! I have used them on a full, half and EMPTY wash - no difference. They still do not completely dissolve. They smell great in the container - however there is absolutely no scent when my laundry is completed - probably because they are not dissolving properly. The concept is great - however the damage and inconvenience of having to rewash laundry, clean out the seal where the pods have got stuck are considerable, when all I was trying to do was avoid the residue that is found after pouring liquid detergent into the cup. I will stick with liquid detergent, and try another brand. Very disappointed.
I have been using Tide Pods since they came out, but have had a baby who has sensitive skin and needs the free and gentle formula which I am disappointed is not available in the pods! My regular store has basically stopped selling liquid detergent in favor of pods so I am forced to buy a sensitive skin formula for his clothes in another brand. I would love it if Tide starts making them in the free and gentle as they are so convenient with the baby... Just toss it in and go!
I have been using the pods for about a year now and i love it...it takes all the stain off my children's clothe and cleans very well...leave my clothe smelling great.....i normally buy the big pack and last me for about 3 month and when i use to use liquid every 2 week i would have to buy...so its a money saver..which its great when you have 3 kids...i would recommend this product to everyone....
Very nice product! Tide Pods not only clean as advertised but they also save by not "over-using" Tide liquid; a tendency guys seem to have. (If a little is good more is better!) Those with Pods "breaking" in the container I may suggest caution in only handling the Pods with DRY HANDS. The Tide Pods also help in keeping the laundry area cleaner by eliminating sticky detergent residue from the counter and side of the container. Kudos P&G to your R&D Department; Great Product! Thanks. JJ
I totally love these Tide Pods. I use alot less detergent and my chothes come out clean and smell great. If I was Oprah it would be on my favorite things show. For Christmas I bought each family a contaner.
I had high hopes for Pods, but like many others I found that they didn't dissolve well. Leaving behind a gunky blue gel that made some of my clothes stick together, so not only did I have to manually scrub the articles of clothing but then wash them again. I tried putting less clothes in, changing the temperature settings, etc, but still the same results. Ugh. I will NEVER waste my money on these again, nor would I recommend them to ANYONE.
I love Tide. I have always been a tide user.The problem I am having with the pods is that they don't dissolve like they should. They clogged the motor on my new machine after 4 months. I had to call a repair man out to find out why my machine was acting the way it was. He pulled out so many of the pods wrapping. was told to sitck with the liquids detergent .
My family wasted laundry detergent in the past but not with Tide Pods, Thanks a million for helping me save.
I have used the tide pods for about a year now and I noticed there was soap in the clothes so I have to rewash all my loads just to to the soap out. Then I discovered that it works better if I dissolved it first ,so I let it sit in a cup of water,either hot or cold and then pour it in the machine a lot to have to do. Invent something else. Thank you.
the pods need individual packaging. one busted in bag which covered the rest of pods with detergent. they all stuck together and if u pull the good ones left apart, they bust. had to use 5 pods for 1 load so i still get use out of it. what a waste. so mad. already to expensive to buy let alone waste half of it. dont think u thought this product through.
Wow, I hope you will consider making a fragrance free pod!!!! PLEASE! I love the cleaning action I just cannot take all the perfume! Thank you!
I received a sample of Tide Pods when they first came out. I used them and found they were so much more simple than liquid. I am a Tide user and have been for a very long time. I used Tide Pods for about a month and finally I had to admit that, simple as they may be, they don't work. They stick to clothes. They don't dissolve completely in cold water. My laundry did not smell fresh. I have gone back to Tide liquid and I will stick with that. Tide pods are a great concept. They just need a lot more work before I would even consider trying them again.
I was excited about the new Tide Pods when I first saw them on the market. That excitement quickly evaporated when I realized my light colored clothing were being stained by the Pods. I have had to throw several light colored pieces of clothing away due to the stains. I only use the Pods in my dark colored loads now. When they are gone I will not purchase them again. I'll stick to my liquid Tide I have used and trusted for 20+ years.
Do not purchase Tide Pods if you value the color of your fabrics. I purchased and used these Pods this week and it faded 2 loads of brightly colored clothing. I am very disappointed because the Tide brand is the only brand of detergent we use and I have never had a problem with fading in the past. Also, we tend to buy well made, brand name clothing that lasts for years. A few my favorite items were extremely faded. Please do not buy this product if you have nice clothing.
I was blown away! I did not expect the cleanliness level, the static free effect and the perfect amount of scent left on my clothes after I got them outta the dryer. I also didn't expect the scent to last 3 days later when I pulled them outta the drawer to wore them! Looks like I'm now a Tide Pods customer ;) I rate this product 2 enthusiastic thumbs up!
I discovered your pods through my sister and have been singing from the roof tops to all. Have converted all friends and family. I just came back from replenishing and after doing a load of laundry realized that the frangrance was not the same. Argh I bought Spring . So dissappointing as the fragrance was the most appealing part to me. Sorry that you have to take a great product and ruin it by making it smell like a cheap air refresher.Will be sure to shop with my reading glasses in future!
I bought the Tide Pods thinking that they would be a quick and simple way to do my laundry. They seemed to be working ok, but not as good as the liquid Tide that I have ALWAYS used. I figured I would use up the rest of the package of Pods that I had bought, and then return to the liquid. Well I put the Pod in the bottom of the machine (like the directions say to do) and added my comforter to the machine. When I took the comforter out, there is a huge purpleish stain on it that I CANNOT get out. Needless to say, I will not be using the remaining Pods that I have.
I am unsure of all the posts as to sticky residue, ruined clothing, broken stuck together pods...I keep my pods in their container above my washer and dryer...closed. I live in a VERY humid part of the country during the summer...and my pods have never been stuck in a closed container. I toss my pod in to the side of my clothes, front loader, and have not had any spots or stains. A bad batch maybe got out? My biggest complaints would be: Cost....can't we even get coupons??? The pod shell often does not dissolve, but gets stuck in the door seal...almost every time. The product works well and is a great gauge to the loads I wash...I ALWAYS know if I have enough for that week...but with liquids, not always so.
I have ruined clothes by insanely using the pods again and again hoping for better results. This product leaves a blue plastic residue on whichever article of clothings rests near the pack.
I was initially pleased with Tide Pods when they first came out. I bought them multiple times, and did not have any problems. Recently, I bought a new package of Pods, and have had nothing but complaints about it. In the 10+ loads of laundry I have completed (in both hot/cold temperatures), there has been hard and sticky residue left upon my clothing. I then have to re-wash the items by hand in order to try and get the detergent off. In addition, MANY of my clothes have been stained purple and orange. I have tried bleaching items to remove the stains, but have not been able to clear the stains completely. I am extremely upset and disappointed with this product. I will no longer buy Tide Pods after so many of my items have been permanently ruined. Something that was meant to be so simple and easy to use has turned into making laundry more work than it needs to be. I would NOT recommend this product to anyone.
This is a wonderful product for whites. I would like to see you make some though that just has the Tide and the Stain lifter in them. I feel that the brightner fades out some of the colors.
I have always been a tide user. Buying the liquid form for many years. While grocery shopping for my 3 year old I went to buy my bottle of tide. He seen the pods and was like, "pop goes the world", you have to buy tide pods mom! I did, it was so much more convenient to do laundry for a family of seven. My older kids can do laundry without getting me to help measure, simple toss in the pod. I told my mother the story of her grandson insisting on the pods, she tried them and now she is also a fan. Thank you Tide for taking care of my family's clothes for years.
I'm not sure what the reason some people have had with this product. I have been using it in a front loading washing machine with very hard water. It seems to completely dissolve in my washing machine without any problem. It gets my clothes clean and is convenient to use.
I loved the concept of throwing one little pod in and getting clean, fresh smelling laundry. I knew it sounded too good to be true! I just bought a bag of the ocean mist pods last week and have used them in my new Kenmore Elite front loader and they don't dissolve all the way and end up sticking to clothing! This has happened with a white load and two colored loads - so different temp settings. The first time I chalked it up to user-error and figured I didn't put it deep enough in the drum or something. The second and now third time I realize it's a definite flaw in the product. Will never use them again!
This is probably the worst product you have come out with. I have had cheaper product clean my clothes cleaner than these do. I love tide so I thought I would give these a try bad decision on my part. My clothes were not clean at all when I used these. I will stick with the liquid tide. Thanks
Picked up a large pkg of new pods. Looked easy to use. Still had liquid tide left and read label about team gear offer. Went to tide website and saw reviews of the new pods so read them. Seemed like many folks were having problems with them. One lady said to dissolve first, then use. Figure I'd try that before running into non-dissolving and staining problems. Put pod in cup of water prior to needing. Hours later, portion of the pod still not dissolved. First load, added to drum as instructed. Towels smelled as if not washed, had to re-wash. Next load, added to detergent cup ( have top-loading machine). Of course, I removed the un dissolved portion of the pod first. Not worth it. Hard enough for Mom's taking care of families to have to "manage" the detergent before using. Didn't notice any great smell and they were expensive. From reading the reviews, can't see tide taking any responsibility for the problems. Oh yeah, seen responses where tide tells how to remove the stains the pods caused....what's wrong with this picture? Aren't we doing laundry to get clothes clean and remove stains....not get more stains from the detergent we use? I've used tide for as long as I can remember...if they accepted responsibility for the problems with pods, I'd continue to use their products. But with the lack of responsibility I see for problems caused, hard-to-use pods, tide... You are losing a former lifetime customer.
I was a loyal consumer of Tide.I was using Tide from the day it was launced in Canada. The last pack I purchased from Costco with ink jetting(May be this is the lot #(2157172777750 9:41. The pod did not dissolved completely and sticked to on of my expensive (Tommy) shirt.This shirt was never washed.I can send you pix. Now I am affraid of using the product.Please advise what you want me to do.
I buy Tide pods and detergent every time I get coupons or its on sale. My clothes stay newer looking longer
I only use TIDE. The pods however didn't dissolve and clogged my plumbing. I am back to TIDE liquid. :) cb
This product seemed great, easy to use, cheaper, a lot of bang for your buck. However, after serveral loads we started to notice spots on our clothes. Like grease spots. After the use of spray and wash spots still showing up. On the front, back, side, Everywhere. Also, we noticed hard plastic like material on our clothes. Ugh, now we have at least 5 ruined shirts, 2 jackets. I would recommend Tide do more product testing. This totally sucks. Prefectly good clothes ruined by this stupid product. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT TO ANYONE!@!!!
First, to all the people complaining about them sticking together, they need to be kept in a cool place. Otherwise they will melt and stick together as a lot of poeple seem to be complaining about. My mother turned me onto these. She bought and used a 72 pack and gave me half a dozen to try. Back to what I stated above, she keeps them in my nephew's bedroom, who like to keep it cold in there, and hasn't encountered a single pod that was stuck to another or melted, nor has she had any that didn't dissolve in the wash, so I'm not sure why other users are having the issue. Possibly over loading the washer? Anyway, I used up the 6 my mother gave me (ocean mist scent) and I absolutely LOVE these little guys. We used to use liquid detergent in my house and it always went too fast as everyone seems to use more detergent than necessary. With the pods it's simple; drop in one pod per load and you're good! Clothes come out clean, soft and they smell great. Highly recommended.
When I first used the pod I thought how great is this! I purchased the new PODS. Then first load my sheets had stuck together like super glue. I didn't know what happen. Brand new had not even used them. Next load my husbands clothes and his shirts that have his work insignia on them. He wore his shirt to work and the back side was stuck together imagine that for a VP of a company. I had to bring him another shirt. Next I did my whites well I checked every item and found the residue from the pod it was blue gooey mess. I was able to get it out as I had found it prior to drying it. It did leave a light blue stain but the gooey came off with boiling water. Are these PODs not good for front load washers? Please Tide reply to let me know if reimbursement will be made for my husbands work shirt. Boiling water didn't work on it as it had been though the dryer already
The pods looked to be a great idea saving a few minutes in the never ending chore of laundry so I bought the large container because I've never had any problems with Tide. Worst mistake ever! First most of the pods were stuck together and trying to seperate them just ended in a mess of detergent everywhere. Even with that I still pushed on as a single income household every penny counts. Then one of the pods did not dissolve correctly ruining the sheets to the bed set my husband bought me for christmas last year I finally got brave and had used them and like all sheets need to be washed....my first matching set now ruined
I love Tide Pods. The only real complaint that I have is that they do not fully dissolve in hot or cold water. Also, I can't just "drop" them in the wash. While I do love how clean my clothes get after using the pods, I have had to make some adjustments to use them. I always dissolve a pod fully in a cup of hot water and then add it to the laundry water. Then I add the clothes. There are no problems after that. For those who complain that the pods are a clumpy mess in the package, my advice is don't reach into the container with wet hands. They dissolve in water so of course they are going to stick together if you introduce water into the package. Other than that I have no complaints. No staining, just clean great smelling clothes.
When I got my new front load washer I had some pods left as I had used them with my old top load washer. When I put one in the detergent dispenser I had water on the floor. When I went back to liquid detergent no water. The diagram on pack of pods container shows the pod going into the wash drum. But the owner's manual for my new washer says NEVER put laundry products in the wash drum.
I bought the 77 count of Tide Pods. I've only gotten about half way through the container, and many of the pods have leaked, and there's a HUGE clump of pods stuck together. I can't get them apart without breaking them and further gumming up the contents of the container. I have to dig in the container to find pods that are still intact, and it's a mess. I wanted to use them all up, as they were expensive. I don't plan to buy pods again, and I won't recommend them to anyone. We've wasted a lot of money, and we weren't able to wash our clothing properly with Tide Pods. So disappointed.
I can't remove the sticky residue and blue stains that Tide Pods left on my clothes and sheets! Clearly there is a problem with this product and it should be pulled from the shelves based on the number of negative reviews about ruined clothes on this site alone! Tide- you should be ashamed about these issues and offering solutions to remove the residue left on our clothes. Step up and offer some real options for your consumers or you will certainly lose your trusting consumers.
I started using Tide Pods about 3 months ago and never had a problem with the product. I recently purchased another package of 66 count Pods and when I open the package some of the pods had bust and the other we're all stuck together making it next to impossible to use product. I am very upset and had to go buy more detergent.
I am a lifelong Tide detergent user and was excited to try the new Pods. They are convenient to use and it seems like the big bucket will last a long time. But unfortunately, they ruined my sheets and the cover of one of my couch cushions. I'm not that upset about the sheets, but the couch cover is devastating. I have to contact my furniture manufacturer for a replacement which is going to be expensive. I would never use these again and recommend everyone to stay away from them.
I have been buying the pods now for awhile. Lately I have noticied Im getting blue spots on my whites. I always make sure that the pod is dissolved before putting in my cloths. Also, the pods in the container stick together and have burst inside the container. You cant even pull them apart because when u do u break the POD its self. So now I have a clump of 20 PODS stuck together that i really cant use. I also have a container full of pods soaking in the detergent that as leaked out from the other pods. I dont think i will be buying any of your products anymore. Im not going to spend 20$ on a thing of pods when i barely use half of them.
My husband bought these pods and told me to try them, I did and they work and smell great! Sorry Gain, my new friend is Tide! Great product and my laundry cap doesn't end up getting lost because there is no need to use one now! Just toss in and close the lid! Easy!
I am in love with Tide Pods. I wish that I could get coupons for the pods to make each purchase a bit cheaper. I love the scent used. Thanks so much for this product!
Normally, I buy Arm & Hammer laundry detergent. However, I was doing laundry at a friend's place and they suggested I use their pods so I wouldn't have to grad a huge bottle of detergent out of the car. I love them!!! Like my friend, I wash everything on cold, and don't normally separate the colors as long as delicates or new clothes aren't involved. I experienced no problem with the pods dissolving in the cold water, nor stains of any kind even when I washed a very heavy winter sleeping bag. Everything came out clean and smelling wonderfully. I'm now using the pods myself, and love that I can put a couple of pods in my hamper since I have to carry it down the stairs and down the block. The product is wonderful, though I do agree that either a lighter scent, or an unscented option be made available. Over all, I love this product, and have permanently switched! Thank you Tide!
I noticed a lot of people are having problems with stains. I have a top loading washer and I toss the pod in and let the machine begin to fill with water...after a minute or so I lift the lid and squeeze the pod and mix it around before I load my clothes in. I have never had a problem. I do the same for all temps of water. I love them! No more heavy jugs of detergent for me!
I received a Tide Pod sample and was eager to try it on a load of white laundry. I followed the instructions, and discovered blue spots on a couple of my shirts, socks, and a towel, as well as an undissolved pod stuck to one of my long-sleeves. I'm extremely dissatisfied with this product, as it ruined almost half of the load of laundry. I will not be purchasing this product, or recommending it to others. (especially after reading other reviews, I'm glad I didn't use it on a load of towels or sheets!) P.S. This website it terrible. Links don't do what they should, and information is falling off the page, so Canadian e-mails can't be seen/sent properly.
I love Tide because it cleans goods and leaves a nice scent on my laundry. I started using the Pods and noticed some bleach looking streaks on some of the darker clothes. I realized that it was the pods not melting enough. I put the pod on the bottom and the laundry on top, which ever item of clothing that land on top of the pod seems to get the damage.
Expensive, purchased hoping to save money as I tend to use too much liquid detergent...which this was a success. However they DO NOT dissolve properly and leave blue stains on clothing. Very disappointed with product, especially with the price you pay. Tide is usually better quality than this.
I usually love these things they are so easy to use and they usually work great but... I had used them in a gentle cycle with cold water and they left blue stains that look like nail polish stains because the pod itself did not dissolve completely... it ruined two of my nice shirts and I am not happy about that.
I really like Tide pods, but like others here I was everything in cold water. I have 'blue gunk' appearing on my clothes and its very difficult to remove. If you don't notice it before drying the clothes, then (for example) socks will glue together and have to be thrown away. I really want this problem solved because I want to continue to use the product. The concept is great, and very easy to use.
My mother, going on 90, likes being as independent as possible. Using Tide Pods has made it possible for her to continue doing her own laundry. No more trying to pour and measure liquid detergents. One pod, per load. You can't ask for more than that when it comes to ease in washing laundry and getting good results.
After reading through some of these reviews it seems that a lot of people are adding the pods to their laundry after adding their clothes and then starting the cycle. Why would you do that?? I have been using the pods for a while now and have never had a problem. I put one in my machine (non HE) let it dissolve and THEN add my clothes. I can't say what would happen if a massive flood occurred in my laundry room, but I'm guessing that ruined detergent would be the least of my problems. I don't think Tide are claiming that their packaging is air and water tight and could withstand nuclear attack. I feel like a little common sense would go a long way...
I was very happy with the Tide Pods up until recently when I started noticing blue stains. I ruined several blouses because of this! I wash everything on the cold cycle and the package claims that they can be used in cold and warm cycles. Clearly this is not the case. The responses on here from Tide also suggest that if you 'use as directed' there shouldn't be any staining. There are not such instructions on the tub. Even if I wanted to 'use as directed' I don't know what that is. Apparently I need to use a warmer cycle to fully dissolve the pack. Would have been nice to know ahead of time....
Tide Pods are the only thing that I will use for our laundry! The Tide Sport, though hard to find, is the only detergent that I have found that actually makes our gym clothes smell fresh. My husband is in the military and often "forgets" to take his gym clothes and towels out of his bag, which causes a Horrible smell that has been nearly impossible to get rid of. One time trying the Sports Pods and I am hooked. I do not use it on our everyday clothing, because it tends to be a bit to harsh, but it does the job when I need it the most!!!!
No good! Two times they didn't dissolve and stuck to my underpants
Wish I would have read the reviews before purchasing the pods. I didn't think there would be a risk in buying these, but I thought wrong. The pods didn't dissolve all the way (even though it wasn't a full load) and I didn't notice until after they were dried. I guess I should be thankful that Christmas is right around the corner, so people can buy me new clothes. I guess it works for some people, but I don't think it's worth the risk.
So easy and lightweight to use in the dorms instead of carrying heavy detergent up and down steps!
tried the tide pods, found that when i went to use some of the pods were stuck together.when i went to separate they started to leak.
I had read the comments regarding this product and was skeptical. I'm not sure what others are doing incorrectly to make the Pods not dissolve or laundry smelling funny. Today was the first time I have used them and my clothes smelled great and the Pods dissolved completely there were no stains on my clothes. Will definitely will start buying these for their convenience and cleaning.
I have been using Pods for quite a few months. There fore I buy it in bulk from BJ and when ever my local supermarket has a sale I purchase it as well. My laundry room in located in my basement. As a result of the flood, I had 8 feel of water in my basement that destroyed everything. The packages that the pod came in are not air tight, so I lost approximately $100 in Tide Pods products. I still had some tide liquid and that is what I was able to save. Going forward, I will only use the tide liquid as the container is not air tight on the Pods. I was very disappointed. I will say though, that they work. Tide needs to work on the packaging.
After buying these on a whim I will never go back. These little things are amazing you just pop one in and that is it no measuring detergent and you don't have to use a dryer sheet. Love how they are completely mess free and do not hardly take up any room at all. Thank You Tide for creating what in my mind is the perfect product.
I purchased the largest tub of tide pods and they were all stuck together couldn`t seperate them without breaking them getting every where i feel i wasted alot of money for nothing to say the least i was very unhappy with product i only bought them because i had purchased a small bag of them and they were great so i decided to buy a large container of them BIG MISTAKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The pods stick together and tear when I try to separate them. They turn my fingers blue and they leak all over!!!
I bought a package of the Tide Pods because I had a coupon and wanted to give them a try. I do not buy Tide because it is over priced. The only way I buy Tide is if I have a very good coupon. The pods do not dissolve. I have pictures to prove this. I have to rinse and rinse and rinse my laundry to get all of the gooey mess off that the pods leave behind. I followed the directions on the package to the letter, and I know it is not my machine because it is brand spanking new. Maybe I got a defective package. All I know is that I won't be using these anymore. I'm going back to regular detergent.
I just happened to see these one day at the supermarket, and thought it was a novel idea, so I thought I'd try them out. I will never use another laundry soap again! How easy can it get? Separate your clothes, drop in a pod and done! No muss, no fuss...and no messy liquid or powder. Love it!
Can I just say from this point on I will only buy Tide Pods!! My daughter in law bought and gave me a couple to try and I am hooked! My laundry was clean and smelled wonderful. This is a task in its self with a house of 5 boys and just me the only girl! Thanks Tide for this amazing product. I hope to try out more of tide products!
they started leaking and i lost almost the whole container. i purchased the largest container and as a single dad i cant afford to lose all my laundry soap. i have used tide my whole life. not very happy
This product is horrible. I have used it to wash sheets and towels. It faded the colors, made them look like they had bleach put on them or were tie dyed. I just bought a new set of sheets and used the pods, it ruined them before I even got to use them. It makes sense when you think about it. This pod is sitting on your laundry why its dissolving its concentrated formula right on the laundry. It has ruined about $500 worth of towels and sheets. I will never use Tide products again.
This pods are the best invention ever, my clothes are impeccable after washing. The saving on detergent cost was dramatically reduced since I stared using the pods and most importantly the clothes no longer itch from overuse of detergent. Great Buy, A+++
Ive use other brand pods and they work great in my HE front loading washer. I saw Tide had some and was psyched because Tide smells and cleans great. However, for about a week every load at least one garment had something purple and gel like on it. Unfortunately I would catch it after they came out of the dryer and it was hard as a rock and wouldn't come off. I blamed my son for leaving candy and gum in his pockets. Then I realized what it was (my new TIDE pods). I thought I must be doing too big of loads so I tried them in smaller loads of maybe a pair of jeans with four shirts. The same thing happened. My guess is that these would work great in a regular washer but not in the HE, as they use so little water....the pods cannot fully dissolve. I will have to go back to using a different product. Bummer!
I started using Tide Pods when I went to college because I loved the idea of not having to carry a heavy bottle of detergent around with me and could instead just grab a pod and go. So far it has been the best decision I ever made. I just throw it in with my laundry and never have to worry about measuring or the mess of liquid. They leave my clothes smelling fresh and looking clean. I also know exactly how many loads I have left to the pack instead of trying to get a rough idea of when I need to go shopping for laundry detergent again- which as a college student can be a hassle to do, now I just count how many pods I have left and shop when I'm down to about 3 or 4. I have recommended these to everyone I know and so far the ones who have tried it love it also, especially my friends from school. If you've never tried them please please please do so they will save you a lot of time and hassle and you WON'T regret it at all. Also if you want to send me a free sample for those I recommend it to that would be GREAT! Thanks!
The Tide Pods are great! I would highly recommend them to everyone to try and I'm sure they will love them as much as I do.
MY MOTHER-IN-LAW GAVE ME A SAMPLE OF TIDE PODS ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO. UP TO THAT POINT I HAD NEVER PURCHASED TIDE. I'M NOW STUCK ON TIDE PODS! MY LAUNDRY HAS NEVER BEEN AS EASY TO WASH WITH SUCH WONDERFUL RESULTS. THANKS FOR A GREAT PRODUCT.
It removes stains without any other products. Leaves clothes smelling great!
Tide Pods have been my lifesaver. My washing machine just broke.I have physical disabilities and can't afford a new washer. I have had to resort to washing our clothes in the bathtub. A painful, tedious and time consuming task for me. With the TIDE PODS, I just toss 1 under the running water in the bathtub as it is filling. They dissolve very quickly. I give it a quick stir and add my clothes. I leave them to soak for about 30 minutes or so. No scrubbing needed, just swish around halfway through, then rinse. My clothes come out sparkling clean, any stains are gone, the whites are white and they smell great too. I am very picky about our clothes being clean and this by far exceeded my expectations.I also will save money as well. I would just pour in the liquid tide, and I know I more than likely used way to much. Thank you for creating this wonderful product.
My family of four really loves the ease of using Tide Pods! But does it come in unscented?????? Would love the product even more if it were unscented!
I LOVE this product! Measuring out laundry detergent may not seem like it takes up that much of your time, but as a busy college student these pods are so convenient because I can just grab one, toss it in, and press start! AND they work so well - my clothes are always so clean and smell so good!
I like Tide, but not the tide pod. They stick together and when you pull them apart they brake open all over your hands or in the bag. Go back to drawing board on Tide Pod. Thank you
PODS ARE THE GREATEST INVENTION. MAKE LAUDRY A BREEZE. I WISH I COULD FIND COUPONS FOR THEM.
I absolutely love this product, it has made doing laundry so much faster. The scents are great and I will never switch to anything else. Tide Pods are the best products out there!
LOVE LOVE LOVE these Tide Pods. I used to use Tide liquid and Downey but a friend told me about the pods. I swear my laundry comes out cleaner and smells so nice! My husband even asked me if I used something different cuz the laundry smelled so good!
I am absolutely in love with Tide Pods. I love that I can just grab and throw them in, then I put my clothes in. I have a top loader so I do not have the problems others have had, although I did use a TIDE POD with my Afghan and I am not sure that was a good idea but those blankets are so touchy anyways. I really love the PODS and only buy a small bottle of liquid for those tiny loads. I love that I know how many more loads I can do with the pods and get the exact amount of loads it says I can get. If you do the liquid the measuring is not always so accurate. For those who have problems with front loaders DO NOT BE DETERRED, simply put your pod in VERY FIRST and then put your clothes on top. It doesn't take long for the PODS to dissolve. GOOD LUCK and thanks for the awesome product!! If I could get a FREE product for such an awesome review please feel free.. haha THANKS!!!
Ok so I love the product in terms of convenience and efficiency, but please please please get new scents!! Perhaps a clean linen, I don't like that the only options are very scented.
I dont like this product at all. Didnt dissolve and ruined brand new nautica sweater in HE machine because the outer shell went all over the bottom of sweater. Wish I could return for refund.
I tried Tide Pods with my front loading washer and they don't dissolve. It was stuck to the bottom side of glass door at end of cycle. I would not recommend these if you have a front loader!
After receiving Tide Pods in the mail, I simply refuse to purchase any other laundry detergent. My clothes are brighter and smell simply marvelous!
After reading some reviews I had to write my own. I have been a Tide user for over 19 years. When I switched to the pods I fell in love. I have a HE front load washer. Putting the pod in first and then the clothes lets the water get to the pod and dissolve it. My son mixed it with the clothes and found it didn't dissolve all the way. It eliminates the left over detergent in the bottle and I know exactly how many loads can be washed. Sent my son off to college with his pods. It's really important that people remember to put the pod in first.
We have used the tide pods for about a month now and we loved them at first, our clothes always smelled great and they are so convenient. About a month ago I noticed some of my work jackets had what looked like bleach spots on them but we don't use bleach. Tonight I solved the mystery when I opened the washer and noticed that the pod got stuck in a pair of my khaki pants and wasn't dissolved all the way and now there are streaks down my pants! I am guessing from the brightener but I am very upset and dissatisfied. We use TIDE for QUALITY not quantity because they aren't the least expensive detergents but I think from now on we will not use the PODS anymore.
I love the Tide Pods...no more messy measuring and getting the liquid or powder all over the place...it is a Tide product so you know it cleans and smells the best...I checked prices for the Pods, and the best price is at Winco if you have one in your neighborhood and then Walmart is a close second...Enjoy the time you save.
We purchased one bag of Tide Pods to give them a try & are very happy we did. Our clothes smell great after washing using Pods!
I have a HE top-load washing machine. I purchased one of the 55 Tide Pods packages. The cleanliness of the clothes wasn't a problem I had - they were clean. The problem occurred after drying the clothes. As I folded the laundry, I found several pieces of clothing that had plastic melted to the articles of clothing. After further investigation and thought, I realized that the Pods weren't fully dissolving. I assume this happened because of inadequate amount of water due to the machine being HE. I no longer use the Pods, and won't recommend them to my friends.
I usually buy the big bottle of tide but this time I bought the Tide Pods to give them a shot especially since times are a little tough right now. Im happy I did :) The product does its job and your clothes come out clean and smelling great! No spills or messes to worry about. Just pop them in and your all set and ready to go!
I washed two expensive Columbia Sportswear brand polyester shirts using a Tide "Mystic Forest" pod. My machine is a top quality front loading He washer, and the pods are advertised as compatible with such a machine. Both of my polyester shirts came out of the wash a dull greyish blue color, and this tint has not faded after treatment with both liquid bleach and Oxyclean power. Why can't the pods be formulated without the destructive dye? They are otherwise a great concept and I have had good results with other fabric types.
After spending $20 on tide pods, my second load was a disaster. I had sheets in the load - the "pod" did not dissolve, left blue stains and discoloration on my expensive bamboo sheets, and even the normal cotton sheets had blue gummy stains. I think Tide should recall this product - maybe a top loader would work, but front loader HE machines do not have enough water to dissolve the pod. You would think they would have tested this so I didn't have to find out with expensive sheets! It says right on the package that this works on HE machines.
I have used tide for about 20 years now and love it. I was hesitant to try the pods because I was fearful they would stain my clothes because the pod sits in the washer. I was in the store with my husband and we were looking at them and a lady passing by said she loves the pods and her clothes are cleaner and smell better so we gave it a try and now we are hooked. the scents are great and my clothes look GREAT!!!
As a single mom, pods are the best for my pockets.
I think this might work okay in a top load machine..but doesn't have any place to go but on the clothes in a front load....stains and detergent left on my clothes....not enough water in front load to rinse it
The idea of the product is great however there is a base smell that reminds me of the smell of when you forget to empty the washing machine for a day then if your grandma was to spray her perfume on it to cover it up (spring meadow). It would be great if they made a pod that smelled like their original Tide scent...
I'm a cashier at Costco and when we started carrying them I was skeptical. They are a little pricey. But they were on sale at CVS and I was out of my kirkland detergent. I have done about 6 loads so far and I have NEVER felt my clothes this clean. They are wonderful. I will pass on my experience at the check out. TIP! Don't over fill your washer. They need room to dissolve and move around. You get them bunched up in clothes, they will probably stain them!
I am not a usual Tide user, due to cost and sensitivity to smells and skin sensitivities (Tide free too expensive, even with coupons). Thought I'd try these for my son's foot ball pants (white). I bought the smallest count to try (if you are trying something, you should start small) and they worked wonderfully!! Even the stains from last year came out! Did have to double rinse to get the detergent out, but would have had to do that anyway due to small load. I did have one problem with them not dissolving and me not catching until laundry went through the dryer, and it left a stiff, sticky mess, but a second laundering without detergent solved that. I also had a HE washer and stuff it to the max, and sometimes use two pods when really dirty. We are engaged in agriculture and have very dirty clothes, and sometimes two pods are needed to get things cleaned, but they do the job when previously I was using a full cup of detergent, borax, and baking soda. These cute little things work as well, and they are easy enough for the whole family to do their own laundry. Yippee for me! Love these things! For all the reviewers that have had issues, I have had some of these issues, but all seem to be resolved with warm to hot (our water heater is set at 120 F, and the first load is NOT that hot). I rarely use cold water, due to our low heat water. I would not recommend pods for small loads. If you are stuffing your HE washer, try two pods dropped in before your laundry (if it's pretty dirty). Perhaps experiment with a second rinse. As for getting sticky pods in your laundry room, that's why they have recloseable bags and lids. I will continue to use, and will also continue to purchase liquid detergent for small loads, but in MUCH smaller quantities. Thanks, Tide! How 'bout some decent coupons, though??
Ruined several pieces of clothing using them. What appears to have happened is the pod broke on one piece of clothing and sat there, my clothing now has "bleach" "stains" like I ran a pod size eraser across them.
I bought the pods for my daughter at college, thought it would be easier for her, it was, until.... she got white splotches on her favorite pair of jeans and her new towels! She was very upset. It's a great idea, just may need a little more work :)
I love the convenience of the pods but make sure you dissolve it in the water BEFORE you put your clothes into the washer. I have three sports bras with big colored blotches on them. Just my luck, first time I tried the pods. But the convenience is great and I love the brightener in them.
I used tide pods with not very good results. Brand new pair of pants had staines all over.Highly disapointed.
We were very worried about buying and using the pods but we love them. We let our washer fill up and start agitating and throw a pod in and it works wonders. The laundry smells soo good. We can't wait to buy a bigger amount for future loads.
Great product! Easy to use and made laundry easy. I was a little weary of the actual pod not de-solving in the wash but it did great!!
My boyfriend's mom bought these Tide Pods because she thought it was neat. Looking at the product I agreed. it works well with towels but who really cares what towels look like. I just purchased a new bed sheet set, quite pricey and it discolored it. There are white blotches all over it. Disappointed.
I love the compact size of pods; they save lots of cupboard space. They give me a wonderfully clean wash even in cold water. Had one problem when several pods stuck together. When I tried to separate them, a few busted and the contents spilled out. Overall, this is a great product. (Think about adding fabric softener to the pods to eliminate adding softener separately to the wash).
I really like the convenience of Tide Pods, you cannot get around it. They are small, efficient, and great for people who live in apartment buildings where you have to transport your laundry to the laundry room. However, I am frustrated that no where on the instructions does it say to put the Pod in prior to loading the washing machine; it just says pop it in. I have had a number of issues with it not fully dissolving since I've placed the Pod in after loading. Now that I've done what seems like too much research, I have found it's recommended to put it in prior to loading. This is obviously an easy solution, but frustrating that it is not spelled out on the container. As this is a new product on the market, Tide cannot assume everyone would know how to use them.
I have used Tide for many years,and always felt it was the best,but I bought the Tide Pods,and they RUINED three of my fave blouses,and my husbands shirt.Will not be buying Tide Pods again!!!!
I have three teenagers who wash their own clothes. I used to purchase liquid detergent based upon price. But those cheap detergents would never yield the amount of washes they promised, because my kids would use more than suggested. I was excited to try the Pods; no more measuring!! My kids love them, and they last much longer than any of the liquid detergents that I used to purchase. I love this product!!
I am really impressed with the Tide Pods. I was skeptical about them. I wish I had more coupons to use for them.
I now have three comforters with blue stains from the Pods. I used the Pods in my HE washer and with a family of five I fill that sucker up to it's fullest capacity. The Pods are not for us. They would either not dissolve fully, leave grease looking stains on clothing or even worse leave blue goo stains and literally glue my laundry up into crunchy balls. Such a dissappointment, Tide. Loved the way they smell though!
LOVE THEM! Just pop one in the laundry and it comes out looking wonderful and smells great!!
This product did very well on stains, however, since my whole family has sensitive skin, I was unable to use it on any of our clothes or towels. It was actually used to wash the dogs' beds and blankets. Wish it came in sensitive skin formula! With that being said, the dog beds came out very clean and actually smelled good (no doggy smell left at all!) I would not buy the pods, but I do buy the Tide liquid in sensitive skin when it is on sale and I have a coupon. To expensive otherwise.
seems to stick to my clothes, looks like remnants of the pods wrapper are sticking to my clothing. doesn't seem to happen in hot water though..just in cold and warm.
I have used the Tide pods and we are pretty much hooked. Used to always tend to overfill the cup now it is quick and easy to just toss one in. No Spills to clean up. I just like it. I do wish that a Tide-Free pod were available. Going to the store now and am hoping to find one though doesn't seem like it from what I poked around on this site so far :(
Love the convenience and excellent results. Can't wait for Tide Free Pods!!!
I love the Tide Pods! They are so easy to use and not only does it clean my clothes well, it has this wonderful scent! How easy can it be? Drop the pod, fill the washer and let it do it's job. As someone who has been doing laundry for some time, this has to be the easiest, most inventive way to do laundry since liquid detergent! Way to go Tide!
I called the Tide Company and asked about the quantity of detergent in the Tide pods. I was assured that the amount of detergent in the pods would be okay for any size load of laundry. This did not sound right to me. I have had my water tested by 3 different companies, and each one said that I have very good water, which is not too hard and not too soft. I tried a Tide pod for a small to medium size load of laundry. When the wash cycle was complete, the clothes felt sticky, and there were some suds left in the washer. I had to put the clothes through 4 more wash cycles without any detergent, to get the detergent out of the clothes. This was a big waste of time and water, which defeated the purpose of of having an HE washer. The Tide pods are not suitable for small or medium size wash loads. If you do a small or medium size load, you have to use either Tide HE powder or Tide HE liquid, so you can adjust the amount of detergent to the size of the wash load. Therefore, I will never use tide pods again. I only tried it once and had to throw the rest of them away.
I purchased the 77 count tub of the Spring Meadow scent tide pods. We love these! We have purchased many tubs over the months to do our laundry. The only problem that I have encountered so far is that in this tub, there was a penny at the bottom. This was in the tub before the seal was even broken and we didn't notice it. After using most of the tide pods, we got to the bottom of the tub. The tide pods were STUCK together in a HUGE clump of mess. It took forever to get one to just break free, but then the others would pop around it. I am very disappointed. Who do I need to contact to get a refund? These are now not usable as they have already been popped. :( Thank you! Carolina
My son's wife had bought the new Tide Pod (stain remover etc) she had asked me if I had ever tried it and I told her no, so she gave me a few samples. I loved it. Clothes smelled good, clean, and bright. I start my cycle, throw the pod in first, clothes and walk away. I have recommended to others. Will continue to buy
I love Tide Pods. I prefer it over liquid. Plus, not only does it clean fabulous, it's a major space saver as well as gets smelly clothes clean and fresh. Just wish there were some printable coupons to save some $$. BTW, I only use Tide.
I am a very satisfied, long time Tide user. I decided to try the Pods, and am sorry to say they are a huge fail. The first thing I noticed while trying to decide which scent to try was that there is no way to tell what they smell like until after you've purchased them and open the package. Then I realized why, they smell like a BAD PERM! I figured maybe it was just the plastic or something. Surely Tide wouldn't put out such an awful smelling product. I washed a load of towels and when it was done, I opened the washing machine and nearly vomited. The awful smell was even more intense. Thankfully the store I bought them at exchanged the rest of the package for a different scent. I figured there is no way the others could be as bad as the Mountain Fresh. Well, wrong again. Awful perm like smell. The store now will not give me a refund. In my opinion, there should be a scratch and sniff or some other way of knowing what the scent smells like before purchase or possibly offer the Pods in current scents like original, at the very least.
Blue spots everywhere! Today's laundry load was covered in little blue spots - scattered across everything. New, white towels and new back to school clothing ruined. Not sure what to do next, aside from tossing the remainder of the pods I have left. A costly mistake.
Being a long time Tide user, I thought the new Tide PODS were a dream come true. I purchased the 90 count pack at my local wholesale club. I am sorry to say that the blue portion of the PODS pack stained an entire load of my child's school uniforms. I have tried and tried to get the blue stains out, but have had no luck. I now have to repurchase about 100.00 worth of uniforms, and had to toss the huge container of Pods because I am too afraid of ruining more clothes. Came to this website to see if it was a fluke, but it appears I am not alone. Very disappointed that Tide would put out a product that is not up to par.
I bought a container of Pods with hopeful anticipation of making my laundry time a tad bit more convenient. However, after washing many loads in various temps and settings, I have decided I hate those Pods. The Pods film does not dissolve, even in hot water settings about every third washing or so. When I open the door, the film, with a bluish goo all over it, is left up front by the door. I have to clean up the aftermath, and pray it doesn't get on my clothes/towels. I have resorted to only using it with my towels in hot water, and it still does the same thing. Can't wait till I've used them up. This design shouldn't have made it to the production phase with it's apparent design flaw.
I have had a problem with the pods completely dissolving, they the do a good job getting things clean. But I have to rewash items about 1 out of 3 loads
I love the they make my wash smell great. Clean great
I purchased the medium size bag of pods and did not have any issues with them sticking together. They were convenient and easy to use. Normally I only have to use one but for heavier soiled loads I use two and my clothes always come out clean, bright and smelling great!
The overall idea of a pod...one small "quick-grab" object that you can toss into the wash, no worries of over-pouring or messy spills...Convenient and Economic in one little pod! It was great that the individual film of the pod was made to quickly desolve...I like to visibly see the detergent react in the water. The down-side is that even in cool-kept temperatures, pods outer film will dissolve and what started great are dissolving one by one and the moisture from each, wets the next just enough to leak until they have all congeled together and you end up with a funny shaped bottle of detergent with a bunch of films that you now no longer want to go into your wash knowing they are no longer filled with detergent! Yes, a little disheartening =) However, I'd like to offer potential solutions. I start by saying that the convenience is not in the fact that there is film around each one...the convenience is in the fact that the servings are pre-measured. Fact is that many people do rather daunting work these days. I know Tide understands that, you wash our clothes! But when you get off of work after staring at a screen all day, you just want to relax your eyes, not look for small markings on the inside of a lid, not overpour and make a mess to have to clean! Simple is what you want. Think of an Exacto-Pour used to measure shots...if you were to upgrade your bottle for an easier carry (pod case is nice) and have a spout that would pre-measure each "wash" at the push of a button...Perfecto! Just a suggestion...Tide is still now and will always be my only brand! Thank you for being durable, reliable, safe and economic!
I am currently serving in the United States Army and with that I work hard and play hard. So my uniforms go through quite a beatin'. I love the new Tide Pods - they're perfect for my lifestyle, I want to get laundry done fast, and get it done right. Plus they're perfect for when I have to go to the field and/or deployment - they don't burst open. mold or break. I love them. Thanks again.
Love these new Tide Pods. I will never go back to using a liquid detergent. These Pods make laundry so easy, just pop it into the washing machine and you're done. The best part is no measuring of messy liquids.
I purchased the 57 pod container because I was attracted to the 'ease of use' and 'no mess' aspects of a pod vs. the individual measuring and frequent spills of traditional liquid and powder detergents. All went well initially, but then the pods started sticking together and sometimes broke open when pulled apart - not easy to use, nor non-messy. Then the pods started leaking while still inside the container, making it very messy and time-consuming indeed to get detergent into the washing machine. The last third of the pods then devolved into a gooey mess of partially filled pods and completely empty pods, all stuck together, and immersed in a lavender-colored liquid in the bottom of the container. They are totally unusable. What a disaster.
I was excited to get a package of these on sale since normally they are a little bit out of my budget. Unfortunately, I think that I would have just been better off buying my normal brand. These pods make my laundry stink! They smell like wet clothes that have been left in the washer way too long and then sprayed with cheap perfume to cover up the musty odor. This stink is really lingering, too. I feel like I smell it everywhere now. The pod form is convenient, but the stink is not. I don't think that I will be purchasing this product again.
I bought a 32 pack of the tide pods ($11) and they are all clumped together and when i try to pull them apart, the packs bust open, and then they are useless. i'm having to use clumps of them in one wash, which is a waste of money. i'm not impressed, at all! Don't waste your money on the pods. It's ridiculous!
I started using the pods a couple of months ago. I never buy the large container I usually just buy the medium size bag. I don't have a problem with them being stuck together or busting either. My clothes are brighter and old stains have come out of some clothes. All of my clothes smell amazing. I love not having to measure out the detergent and I can just toss a little pod in and hit start. So easy even my children can't mess it up.
I am on my 4th container of pods and smell no mold, no sticking, just toss a pod in and I'm on my way. My clothes are clean, smell clean and I'm totally satisfied with the pods. No fuss, muss and the packaging has a wonderful impact on the environment I recommend them all the time.
I can't imagine anyone not loving these! Put the POD in the water as the machine is filling..then add clothes. Simple. Out comes amazing clean and fresh smelling clothes! Easy Peasy and saving money as no more measuring! Makes laundry less of a chore and they are easy to store and actually fun to use! love it!
I put Tide Pods to the ultimate test. Hurricane Issac passed through Miami recently and with its winds knocked electricity. Try potty training with no electricity to run the washer :) Luckily, my mother gave me tide pods. I diluted one in a basin of water to wash my son's adorable underoos. I was very impressed with how the pods maintained the brilliant colors in his underpants. It makes me smile to see him running around in his CLEAN supero-hero bottoms. Thank you.
I have never been one to write a review or really pay attention to others views because all products work differently for everybody! I have been using tide pods for about a month and LOVE them! My clothes come out cleaner and smell fresher. I do not suggest using the mystic forest scent- clothes come out smelling musky, but the spring meadow scent is INCREDIBLE! I mean literally, my clothes have never smelled better. The pods take all the guess work out of it for my husband so he can wash his smelly gym clothes now :) Would be great to see coupons for tide pods.
Long time and loyal Tide user (both powder and liquid). But a couple months of using Pods and our washing machine smells musty. Our clothes smell moldy. Going back to powder. Tossing out half a Costco sized container of Pods.....not good.
I also experienced the Pod not dissolving and remaining on the clothes in two separate washes. Both involved cotton Tshirts. Remaining outer coating of the pod turned to glue like consistency in the dryer and caused the fabric to stick to itself.. Blue stain remained. Fortunately reactivating the area with water loosened the remaining outer coating. Product is unpredictable.
I purchased tide pods because several family members said that tide was a good brand to use. Typically I don't buy it because of the price but I decided to go against my better judgement and try the pods rather than the liquid detergent. I have to say, I'm rather disappointed. I went to take my cloths out of the washing machine and put them in the dryer. Since I personally had never used tide before I wanted to see how good the clothing smelled. Well the smell I got wasn't pleasant. In the load i had one of my cleaning rags in there and it still STUNK! The pods did not do a good job of cleaning my laundry what so ever. I'd rather stick with the $4.00 bottle of laundry detergent to buy rather than spending the extra money on something that doesn't work what so ever!
I switched from my normal brand to try the tide pods. I was really hoping that this product would work out for me and my family. After using the pods I noticed blue streaks on my clothes. Some of which were brand new and the first time washing. I must say I am disapointed in this product and will not buy it again. If I squeeze the product under water into the washer this will not happen however, the reason I bought it was to simplify my life.
I bought the 72 count Tide Pods and for the first 3/4 of the container was very pleased. I have bought the All brand and quit because the pods busted and created a huge mess. My purpose in purchasing these is to keep my laundry room neater, my children do the laundry and can be careless with powder or liquids and it has been a constant battle. I was really disappointed that as we reached the end of the container some of the pods were busted and it makes such a sticky mess and there are pods that stick together which causes more of a mess.
I'm not sure one star is fair or appropriate but this issue needs attention. I have used Tide pods and am on my third large container. Up to now I loved them; they are quick, easy, effective and it avoids the dribbles that inevitably happen when my husband starts a laundry. BUT...this container is full of pods that are stuck together and/or leaking and is useless. Given the time of year I would guess they were in a hot truck or warehouse and the outside film disintegrated. I would be happy to send pictures. Regardless, I would appreciate knowing whether they should be returned to the store or where to get a refund. Fix the problem and I will return as a loyal full time user. ykckby
I love the new Tide Pods!! My clothes smell better than ever and with a messy 2 year old it's hard to keep his clothes smelling and looking their best. I will never use another brand. Thanks for creating such a wonderful product.
My husband asked if I kept the clothes in the washer to long because they just smelt musky. I told him no and I started smelling the same thing. I am very disappointed because i was so excited that these Pods came out. I will never buy again and will have to waste the rest that I have because I hate the strong musky smell that our clothes has.
One pod didn't work to well with an average load, I was disappointed, being that I am disabled I thought this would be a wonderful way to help with a difficult task. Even two didn't do to well with a large load, three did help. However they didn't totally dissolve. Back to Tide but no pods. I thought I could save some money and make the task of doing my laundry a bit less of a challenge. Sad it did not work out that way.
I have used Tide for over 20 years and have always been satisfied with the product. I was excited to try the Pods. I purchased the large size container from Sam's Club. I noticed that the clothes would stick together with the plastic melted to the clothes and the clothes would be blue from the pod. I have been lucky that I can rewash the clothes in order to remove the mess. I am very dissatisfied with the product. I will not buy this again. I have stopped using this! My daughter was buying detergent before leaving for college and I told her not to use the pods. Something has to be done. I tried using cold water, warm water and hot water. It doesn't matter the temperature, the color, etc. The latest mess involved my favorite sheets. They are now blue with plastic stuck between the sheets. Thank you!!
I love the PODS how much easier can it get? I love that my clothing still comes out clean as ever. And the fact that there is less product being wasted is one of the best perks!
I have never really used Tide before because it is more expensive than other brands. I was kind of weary on trying the PODS but I tried it and it was at a very reasonable price!!! I love it! It is all I buy now and I am working on my 3rd bag! I am planning on buying the big bowl of them next! I recommend them to EVERYONE that wants whats best for their clothes at an unbeatable price!
I love the Pods! I thought at first it was expensive, but after using it for four months now, I have discovered my purchase is going much, much farther than liquids I was purchasing for less money. I suppose everyone overuses liquid detergent, but I had no idea how much. Thank you so much Tide for coming out with the Pods! I just wish there were more fragrances.
i have a big problem with these pods because i have to wash my clothes twice because the pods leave a horrible residue on the first round! the residue is brown and always where i put the pod in. These are suppose to help with the laundry and in reality it makes it ever harder and worse. i know its now my washing machine because when i use other detergents it doesn't leave the residue. i purposely placed it on one of my shirts to see if it would leave residue there and guess what? it did!! not only on my shirt but the whole load!! i am now washing for the second time but not with pods.
I have always used Tide, this product leaves stains that melt together when put in the dryer, I have a Maytag frontloader, the pod has ruined two of my husbands shirts. The pods do not totally dissolve.
I love the pod! I always hated those big bottles, because they were heavy and hard to clean out on recycling day. I love the idea that the pods use far less plastic in their packaging -- and they do an amazing job on dirt, stains, and odors.
I purchased this product not believing that it would get the job done. A small item like this cant wash a load of towels far last jeans. I was pretty surprised when i did my jeans. They came out clean and smell great. when please let me say i can use fabric softer. i broke out. But i used the tide pods and i was great. Always wanted to use fabric softer. I gave my friends some out of my package.One of the BEST products ever made. Please keep.
I personally enjoy the ease of "Pods', however I would like to see "Tide Free" in Pod form.
We have been using Tide pods for several months now and I don't plan on making any changes. Tide pods are easy to use, they work well and they smell fantastic. We went camping this summer and the campground we stayed at had a laundry, we took along our Tide pods in a zip lock bag and every one made the trip and took up very little space in our packing. We have a 12 year old son who is learning to do his own laundry and Tide pods have made this a very simple task. Thank you for this product
I have been using Tide for a kazillion years and have always been extremely satisfied so I thought I would try the PODS. Very disappointed in them, clothes are NOT coming out as bright as they used to - doubt very much if I'll use them anymore instead will go back to the liquid tide I have been using for so long.
After reading many negative reviews I was skeptical of how my laundry would turn out using Tide Pods, and I must say I was very satisfied that many of those negative reviews were wrong...very wrong! I have had no problem with them whatsoever. I have twin 3 year olds who keep my busy ALL day so knowing I can just pop a pod in the laundry and keep going is incredible. I have tried all three "scents" and I will admit that the mystic forest scent is pretty bad, and I wont be using that one again, but the spring meadow scent is WONDERFUL! My clothes come out clean and smell like heaven :)
I bought the humungo container at costco since it seemed cheaper and easier than the regular detergent. Came home, did a load and now my washer won't drain. When I was finally able to take my soaked clothes out, they still smelled dirty even though the POD had dissolved. I haven't been able to wash any clothes for the week and since it's a holiday no one will come out and fix my washer. Thanks, Tide :-/
I use tide for every load of laundry. I was super excited to try the new pods. I used them for the first time this weekend and ruined an entire load of laundry. The 'test' load of towels washed fine. The next load of laundry is ruined. I have three pairs of ruined lucky jeans, a limited shirt, bras and most of my tank tops. They have streaks of 'wet' all over them and were actually sticking together. No matter how many times I have re washed and soaked the clothes. They are ruined. I am beyond mad I trusted this new product and wish I hated liquid tide enough to leave the brand completely. What a waste of a product
The perfume smell of the clothes coming out of the washing machine is horrible!! If the smell could be removed and the pouches firmed up ( they feel like they could easily burst ) this would be a good product.
I first tried these when I ran out of detergent and on a quick trip this was all the store had available for front-loading/HE. So, I thought I would give it a try. I didn't expect any different results than my regular Tide w/ Bleach HE, but when I put away the clothes, I noticed that they looked nicer. They really were cleaner and brighter - even some of our older and more dingy clothes came out looking much newer. So, I have stuck with the pods through over 100 loads. I have not had any issues with the pods not dissolving, like others have had. However, I am somewhat careful about placing the pod. I put it in AFTER I load the clothes, and right in the area where the water first pours in. Of course, I also have a hubby and kids helping - who knows where they put it! For us, the pods have worked really well, and we are very pleased. If there was only a way to incorporate fabric softener, it would be 5 stars. A scent-free version would be nice, although I don't terribly mind the scents available.
I was really skeptical at first, but finally gave in. I don't regret that decision one bit. My clothes/towels come out cleaner and smell good. It also uses less detergent. I want to try Tide Boost Vivid White pacs, but my local Wal-Mart doesn't carry them yet.
Love the tods. Easy to use. But don't like the smells. Have tried 2 different ones. Can you make one with the original tide smell or no smell at all?
Tide pods make doing laundry on campus easier. The pods clean my clothes exceptionally well. They work with the high efficiency washing machines my school got this year.
Tide Liquid smells great when your clothes come out, but not the pods! They smell really gross....I wish the fragrance was good because the cleaning quality is really good...i have a stackable top loader in my apartment and have not had the gooey mess problem at all...please improve the fragrance....yuck!
That's what I would give this product if I could. I am a very busy mom of 3, and always in search of ways to save time, money, and clean-up. I was thrilled when I saw a new product on the shelves at Sam's that would help me avoid the mess that comes with the larger, spout containers that I normally buy, and had no qualms about buying the big package, because I trust the Tide brand for quality. Well... lesson learned. One pack didn't get a load clean, so I had to switch to two. Then I noticed that the packs weren't dissolving completely. I tried making the loads smaller so there would be more water to dissolve them, hoping I could find a way to use the packs until the box was finished, but even this didn't help. I ALWAYS wound up with the sticky mess, and if i didn't catch it before putting my clothes in the dryer, I wound up with a rubbery blob stuck to my clothes. After ruining four shirts this way, I gave up and have the almost full box sitting on the laundry shelf, adding to my list of things to dust. So much for saving time- rewashing clothes that have sticky goo on them, and saving money- using twice as much detergent and replacing ruined clothing blew that apart. All that's left to do is to look on Pinterest for craft ideas for my unused Tide Pods.
I like the convenience of this product, but found 2 shirts with spots that looked like they had been glued together. I did not notice they hadn't dissolved and put them in the dryer, which hardened the undissolved pods. I tried re-washing the shirts and it did not help. I am soaking them and hope that works. I will not recommend this to anyone, I have a front loader HE and this may be the problem.
I had a problem with using to much liquid now I have the pods we just pop one in and start the load our clothes come out smelling great and the stain lifter plus brightener works great our clothes have never looked so good my 5 year old son loves to help with the laundry now Thanks Tide.
I absolutely love this product!!!! Makes doing laundry somewhat enjoyable. so easy to use, start the washer and toss one in and my clothes come out clean, soft and smelling fresh!
I have always used Tide and feel it is superior to other detergents. I thought the pods would be a convenient way for me and my family to do laundry. And yes I read the disclaimer on the back to seal the bag and make sure your hands are dry when removing them but somehow a pod got stuck to another pod and when trying to remove it it burst and all the pods quickly became entangled and so now I have a large bag of soap in the bottom of my bag and all the pods have ruined. This is not convenient nor cost efficient. I do not have extra money to throw away but I guess I made a wrong choice.
Great Idea but someone needs to do something with the blue dye in the pod. I had my favorite off white pair of capris come out of the washer with blue/purple dye all over the backside and on one knee. I soaked them in bleach and tried Oxyclean but they still have light pink stains. I will not use these pods again until this issue is resolved.
I was very leery of this product and have had the sample for a while. I tried it last night with my husband's dress shirts. It worked AMAZING! Now I need to go and buy them! Thank you TIDE for another great product!
I have a HE washer and find this little pod works very well. Easy to use and only need 1 packet with fabric softner. Tide is #1 for me; Pods are super!
I want perfume free pods. I don't want my clothes to smell like perfume!
Even using hot water, the Pods sometimes do not dissolve completely and create and bunched up mess. I do not overload my HE washer; however, so far because of the Pods, I've thrown away a pair of perfectly good men's underwear and my hubby's favorite sleeveless tee. Luckily, with a lot of patience and elbow grease, I was able to tug, scrape and wash MOST of a non-dissolved pod from my new pajama bottom. I am so disappointed in this product, especially given the cost. I expected more from Procter-Gamble.
I have always loved tide and when the new pods came out i really wanted to try them. I went out and bought some and they work great. i love how they clean my clothes and the way they make my clothes smell! i would tell my friends about tide pods! and i will continue to buy tide pods and products!!!!!
I really like how clean my laundry gets with this product. As well as the ease of use no need to juggle three different bottles. My only complaint is that I wish it was offered in an unscented version. I don't care for scented soaps. Will probably not buy again unless they come out with unscented or at least the original tide scent.
I love Tide and the new pods are the greatest. You toss it in, add the clothes, and you're done. No measuring, pouring, or spilling. Now it they would add the fabric softener that would be even better.
After the load of wash was finished, I saw that my garments were sticking together, and when I pulled it apart, I saw the blue color from the pod. I had to wash the load again & pre-treat everything. I work all week, so I barely have the time to wash, let alone wash a load twice.
I have used Tide all of my adult life and now with the Tide Pods, it just makes doing laundry a little easier and quicker! The pods are so economical and leave my clothes smelling fresh and clean. I always have someone asking me what detergent I use because they can smell the clean on my clothing! Love them!!!
As a lifelong, brand loyal Tide customer, I was thrilled when I saw PODS in the store and noted it could be used in HE washers. Following the directions, I placed the POD in the bottom of my washer and placed clothes on top. At least four times, the outer shell has not dissolved and went undetected until after the dryer. What a pain! I have to soak and scrub it out and then rewash to make sure no residue is remaining. I am very disappointed in this product. I find it hard to believe that this did not come up in product testing as others have experienced this as well. I expect great things from P&G and Tide and firmly believe you get what you pay for. In this case, I got an inferior product. I will think twice about trying a new Tide product in the future.
I have always had better results with Tide products starting with the powder, then the liquid when it was first introduced. Since I have had excellent results with the similar new dishwasher pacs that are now available, I decided to give Tide Pods a try. Very glad I did. They work as advertised with much less mess. I have not experienced problems with the Pods dissolving or spotting clothes that a few of the reviewers have mentioned. The Pods work as advertised for me when stored properly and thrown into the bottom of the drum before the clothes. I have always had a tendency to overuse detergents which is one reason that I wanted to try the Pods. One Pod seems to be perfect in my front-loading HE washer. I started with Ocean Mist which seems to have the least fragrance (I prefer "free" detergents). Hard to detect any scent in the clothes at all, but this might be because we always use the extra rinse feature of our washer. End result: I think Tide Pods clean better than Tide liquid. A perfect example is my work/fishing hat - talk about a greasy, sweaty and dirty mess at the end of a week of fishing. In the past I have always had to pre-treat it. Well I forgot, and threw it in with all the other fishing clothes and towels that we use on the boat. Not only was it clean, but some old stains that had not come out with previous washings were gone. I am really pleased. If nothing else, I no longer have to clean up liquid detergent that always seems to drip on the floor.
I loved this product. It is so easy to use and gives great results. My husband is a farmer and he gets really messy and these do a great job getting his clothes clean.
I have used Tide for many years. I was excited when the pods came out and bought a large container. I thought this would be less messy than pouring from a bottle. It is but, the packages damage easily and melt in the container so I lose a lot of the product. The packaging of this product needs to be improved. I tried other detergent pods and I do not have this problem.
This is a fantastic product. There is absolutely positively nothing better than Tide when it comes to selecting a laundry detergent. I depend on Tide to clean my clothes in an efficient manner and to get out stains that I didn't even realized I had.
My bag of tide pods literally melted away into a bag of messy liquid. They are like gremlins, DON"T GET THEM WET OR BIG TROUBLE! When they don't melt, they do work well!
I am very pleased with Tide Pods. This product appears to work exactly as advertised. My laundry smells fresh and cleans after each wash. The stain remover works well. I've had trouble with liquid detergents getting clothes clean in my he washer. Tide Pods go directly in the washer bowl and dispenses accurately for a very clean and fresh look and feel. The only negative aspect of Tide Pods is the relatively high price. Thank You
I love using the Tide Pods because as a college student it is easy and I do not have to worry about a big bottle and my mom loves it (and she has a front loader and no mess).
We have been trying the new PODS from Tide as we have used Tide products for many, many years. Unfortunately we have had a lot a bad results...many shirts from different loads have been ruined!! The staining "looks" like bleach stains. I am fully aware there is no bleach in the PODS, nor do we use bleach for other loads.I wish I had read the reviews before I used it...but didn't bother since we have loved Tide for numerous years!!
I have a front load washer and use as directed but they have gotten stuck on the rubber gasket on the door which is.a gooey mess. I like them when they work but this has happened to me four times and they also left a big blue stain on a white dish towel. Tide needs to Work on this issue.
Tide Pods make laundry fast and easy! Just pop one in, add clothes and you are ready to go. Your clothes come out clean and smell fresh. So do laundry the easy way with tide pods.
Tide is the only laundry detergent I prefer! I never have any issues with getting stains out and my clothes always smell great and feel soft! I love tide pods. They make doing the laundry so much easier and they work just as great as the liquid! Would highly recommend them to anyone!
I was excited to try new Tide Pods they seemed economical to buy-boy was I wrong. It takes two for even the smallest load and no suds at all. I always use Tide products and feel very disappointed that they do not meet the standards I am used to with Tide products-unfortunately there is no "satisfaction guaranteed" label on the back and I can see why.
Don'tuse this product. I didn't figure out what was happening until the third load. At first I thought one of family members left something in a pocket and it melted. But after ruined garment after ruined garment I finally realized the pods were not dissolving and the outer lining was being melted onto my clothes. Two shirts were brand new. The washing machines they make today don't use enough water for this product to work as designed.
Tide Is wonderful for all your clothes i didnt believe it til i got my free sample because i could barely find stuff to get our clothes clean were he is a truck driver grease oil diesal u name it now that is the only thing i buy to clean mine and my husbands clothes with it works miracles.
I bought the Tide Pods because of the ease of use and hoped it would get my husbands nasty work clothes clean the first time being washed. He works outside in the AZ heat. After 1/2 of the package of pods was gone he asked me if I left the clothes in the washer too long. Not in AZ, things mildew really fast. He said his clothes stink after just a few minutes of sweating. Well its the Tide Pods that stink. Everything smells like mildew. NASTY. The clothes were cleaner but can't take the smell. Will not buy again and will not recommend them to friends. Off to wash all the clothes again with something else!
Most dryers are located next to washers, therefore the most common place for easily available laundry detergent is on top of dryer. Tide pods melt together if even slightly warm. Solution, if this happens place them in refrigerator, they will easily come apart.
Tide is a great product that works great! It's a good price for the amount of clean you get.
I have been using the pods for a few months now. I have been noticing these nasty sticky marks and the fabric sticking together. I thought maybe someone left something in a pocket. Well i have been doing laundry today and found out that the pod isn't dissolving in the wash. I have 2 shirts for work that are totally ruined because i have blue stain all over one and sticky plastic container holding the shirts pinched together. I am very disappointed. I wash my clothes in warm water. I just got my mom to purchase them the other day thinking they are great. I truly hope that she doesn't have this problem. I won't be purchasing the pods again. I have used the Purex pods and have never had an issue. I liked what Tide pods had to offer but they obviously do not work as well. I really wanted them to help make life easier but no go. If they make a better package that dissolves correctly then i might purchase again.
I received a sample of Tide Pods in my supermarket and used it today on my weekly laundry. I suppose it worked alright to clean the clothes, but when I pulled one of my favorite blouses from the dryer to hang it up, I discovered several areas of goopy residue which have taken hand rinsing and two additional rinse cycles to mostly remove. The tacky covering on the Pod adhered to my blouse, causing all this problem.
I tried a small bag of Tide pods to see if I liked them. They seemed to work OK, but not as well as the liquid, but I purchased a larger quantity for their convenience. I only used 3 of the pods from the larger bag, and when I unzipped the bag for another load, they had all melted together into a pile of gunk. Also noticed pink stains on my sheets and didn't know what caused the marks until I read the reviews and put two and two together. I have used stain removers and other detergents on the stained sheets to no avail. Very disappointed, since I could always count on Tide for the tough stuff.
I was really excited to try this product out, so I bought a big bucket at a wholesale store. Normally I would try a product before buying a 90 piece package, but I've never had a bad experience with tide...until now :( The laundry NEVER comes out smelling fresh, even with the use of multiple "pods" and many dryer sheets. There is nothing worse than grabbing a shirt in a hurry only to realize that it smells musty! I have had to rewash more loads than not, and each time I've used 2-3 pods on the rewash. My husband and I are very disappointed! I am SO glad that they've finally been used up so I can go get detergent that works!
My new white dress and 3 pairs of shorts are ruined with blue spots all over them. I have tried stain remover, bleach, powdered tide and about anything I could think of to get the stains out. Nothing worked and I am throwing my clothes away. It works fine for dark clothes but I would never again use on whites. I am confused as to why Proctor and Gamble says this has not happened in the testing, there are to many people in the reviews that this has happened to. I find it hard to believe it never happened to them. Next time before I buy a new product I will read reviews.
I am always looking for ways to make life easier and more efficient, and thank you to TIDE PODS for making this possible. I have almost exclusively used Tide due to skin sensitivity but other brands were coming out with these tablets. I thought it was cool and easy (but not Tide) Now with PODS I can have my cloths cleaned as well as everyone else in my household. My cloths are as clean as ever and my college age children have an easy way to do laundry. The PODS are a little pricey but there is also no waste. So I think this is a wonderful product and recommend it to all who come to my house.
I liked the idea of these to make laundry easier and to eliminate any waste with my powder but they have been a total fail. I started noticing that my husband's work clothes came out of the wash with dirt and odors and I had to rewash them. Ultimately the pods stained and ruined an entire load of whites with pink spots. I wish I had read the reviews before using them since many people have mentioned having that problem. I also wish P&G would offer some solutions on their website and not comment that they have not experienced that issue in testing. Looks like enough folks have had the problem to warrant a solution. I threw away the package and went back to my powder.
I am very impressed with Tide Pods! They make my clothes smell amazing. My husband is a truck driver and they are perfect for traveling. I only gave 4 stars because they take a while to dissolve in cold water, but I haven't had any problems with them so far. Either way, I will always buy Tide products. Tide Loads of Hope really helped my state during the aftermath of the April 2011 tornadoes. Thank you Tide!
When I first saw these I was very intrigued by them, and after reading a substantial amount of reviews, I decided to try them. I am glad that I did because these pods work very well on your clothes and leave them fresh, clean, bright and smelling good.I have noticed a difference in how my clothes looked, as they do look brighter and stains were removed, all the first time.There's no need to use more than 1 because it would be just a waste, unless your clothes are muddy, greasy or extremely dirty. Even with that, you could pop one in and do a soak first, then wash. We use to much detergent anyway, all you need is 1.5 ounces or 3 tablespoons or less and your done. The scent at first may be over powering but, after you wash and dry your clothes, the scent will be mild. I have the Spring Meadows pods and they smell great, like spring time flowers. Some users have complained about blue stains on their clothes and the packs not dissolving, I have not have that issue, as I washed light colors on warm, darks on cold and towels on warm and have not seen any staining, what so ever. Your suppose to put them in first and then load the washer, maybe there not doing that or their over loading the machine or its their washing machine ( I have an old Maytag from the 80's). I would soak my clothes first then wash them or dissolve it in a cup of water, then add it to the washer, to make sure they dissolve properly.. Some also complain about the pods not having a pungent smell .That should be the least of your concerns as your main concern should be about having clean laundry that gets out all the stains and do what it's supposed to do. I did notice a mild smell on large loads of clothes and a pungent smell on small loads but, what's most important, are that they clean great and they do. You will not be disappointed, if you use them right.
I was hesitant at first to buy this product, because it seemed expensive. However, it has brought back to life several shirts that could not be worn due to stains! Tide Pods got the old, "dryer set" stains out! To say the least I was very impressed. So, it has more than paid for itself. I also like the fact that it saves me time, as there is no measuring!
I tried the pods and liked them but that said, if it's the first time you were going to use it get a small sized package because the different scents are drastic... some good some awful! I had to give away a big batch of mystic forest, it was that bad. If I had not try Summermeadow first I would have given up on this problem. Test your scents before committing to a larger size
I purchased my first container of Tide Pods at Costco. The package was actually cheaper than the Tide liquid sitting right next to it on the shelf. The pods clean more per load, so I thought I would give it a try. I am so glad I made that purchase! It has lasted a lot longer than the regular liquid Tide, probably because I just throw one pod in per load. Great product and I'm very glad I decided to try it!
I LOVE tide pods. I hadn't received a free sample but while shopping, I noticed them in the Laundry isle and thought I'd give it a shot. In the past, I always overused my detergent and didn't really get my money's worth in the long run. I tried the tide pods and after the first load of laundry finished, I was hooked. My clothes smell amazing, feel clean, and look fantastic. Not to mention I didn't overuse the amount needed and the work in any water temperature so if I want to wash in cold water to save energy, I can. These. are. worth. every. penny.
Tide is a product that I've seen in most of my family's laundry room as far back as I could remember and its the detergent of choice in my home. So when these pods came out I thought, "what a great idea, my detergent just became more efficient." Well... to make a long story short, this detergent has lightly/ slightly faded four polo shirts of mine and two blouses of my wife and random articles in my daughters wardrobe. Like I said, this started off as a good idea but the different liquids within each pod or the ratio of those liquids need to be reevaluated.
When I got your sample a few months ago, I was very satisfied with the results, so I went out and bought a 57 pacs capsule, it was the best choice since I did bot have to worry about measuring and wondering if I added enough, this has made it simple, fast and convenient. I could not have asked for something so great, this product is your best idea, plus I can use the capsule for refilling or other uses like a fish bowl or something( maybe you should have a competition to see what can be made/used from these capsules). There is one thing nice about the capsule, it makes it so easy to see how much I got left and when I need to buy more. Now I hope you keep this product. Thanks Tide.
I have a front loading washer and the Tide Pods make it so much easier and convenient with no mess. I also like how it cleans the clothes.
I have always used Tide and have been completely satisfied, so I was excited to buy the Pods. However, I have found the undissolved pod in my dryer on several occasions. I didn't discover it until I was removing the clothes from the dryer. The clothes were spotted all over from the undissolved detergent. I had to wash them again. After it happened again tonight, I will not use the Pods again.
The detergent is not only so easy to use....no mess...no measuring.....your clothes come out looking AND smelling wonderful. This will be a great product to bring on our many trips....the size is perfect to take with you and not use up very much space. Great idea.....Great Product.... Thank You!
I love Tide, so when the pods came out I had to try them. I loved them. I love the conviience of no measuring. They last me longer because I'm not pouring too much liquid. My clothes always smell, look and feel clean. I bought the large container. By the middle I noticed the pods started to stick together. Trying to separate them they broke and leaked. I was disappointed. I recently bought a small bag thinking maybe if they don't sit as long. Sad to say, I just took one out and they are starting to stick to each other. I will not buy them again. So sad. Such a great idea.
I love tide and thought these new pods would work great. Fortunately I didn't have a problem with them staining my clothes (not that I've noticed anyway). I did however have to pop the pods to get them to open up. They cleaned my clothes but they didn't leave the fresh Tide smell that I look forward to when doing laundry. I think I will stick with Tide liquid detergent.
We're still using the first large package of pods we bought after using the free sample. I'm sure that in spite of the initial higher cost than the liquid tide we used previously that the pods are saving us money. Now I'll go on record hoping that there is a version with bleach alternative on the horizon.
I love these! Yes, they are a bit more expensive than buying the liquid form, but they are worth every penny. I think I overuse the liquid, usually not even using the cup when I pour it into my washer. So these are perfect. I guarantee I'm saving money by using 1 of these per load. I read a review that said she had a problem with blue staining, I have never had a problem with that. My clothes come out great, with no problems. The smells are great, my favorite being the Ocean Mist. They are very convenient and I love the way they clean my clothes. Extremely happy and I would definitely recommend buying these.
I love these things!!!!! I have a front loader and I throw one in then the clothes( just like the instructions says) and they work great. I have never had any issues of discolor from the pods on my clothes. No more spilled detergent on my floor or machine. And less waste from big containers. I bought the larger container of pods and now I buy the refills. I have recommended these pods to everyone I know.
I love the pod and I think it does a great job with my laundry. However, the blue part of the pod is a problem. Twice now, I've had blue staining from the pod, both times on sheets. I think maybe the pod get's caught up in the sheets during the cycle and it leaves the blue streaking. I take exception to the response by Tide on the same comment a few days about about using a stain remover. I shouldn't have to use a stain remover to take something out that your product put in. If it's staining, it should be removed from your product. That said, I will still use the pods, but I'm not happy about the blue staining. I'm sure this is a marketing thing, to have colors like this in your product. You shouldn't underestimate the intelligence of your consumers. We don't need bright flashy dyes in our detergent to believe that it works.
I tried my sample yesterday and it seemed to work well and was excited to buy them, but after reading these reviews, I'm too afraid of ruining my clothes. I think I'll just wait and see what is done to fix the problems before I spend my hard-earned money on a product that has the potential to ruin clothing. Seemed like a great idea..the bugs need to be worked out.
Tide is my regular laundry detergent and we usually purchase the regular scent as well as Tide Free for use on our baby's laundry. I love the convenience of the Tide Pods that we purchased; however, as a busy mother of an infant, I find myself wishing that the Pods were available in the fragrance and dye free formulation that is available in the liquid detergent. We do LOTS of baby laundry in our house and the convenience of the Pods would be great in the fragrance/dye free formula...especially when laundry is being started while holding the baby!
I have been using Tide Pods for a couple of months now. I have a front loading washer and had only one instance that the pod did not dissolve. I like this product because it's not messy, just toss it and start. My clothes are clean and smell great! However, I am not doing laundry for football team members or someone that works in an industry where cloths get very dirty. I don't know how you would deal with heavy duty loads and this product.
I started using the tide PODS approx. 4 months ago. We moved into a house that has well water and needed a product that would keep our clothes from turning yellow AND leave a fresh clean scent. A friend of mine suggested I try the Tide PODS. They keep my clothes fresh and clean.( I have to say that I do use oxi-clean with every load as well.) I have 3 boys that play sports and a very active 2 year old boy and so far no stains and they smell great (even when they do their own laundry)! I am overall impressed with the results and will continue to buy TIDE, as long as the budget allows :)
I do not recommend this product. I wash my clothes in cold water, before putting my clothes in the machine i throw the tide pod in and it has sat in the water for 15 min and will not dissolve. I have to physically put my hand in to squish out all the contents before putting my clothes in the machine. If i do not do this i get a stain circle on my clothes. I have ruined 3 articles of clothing and i am not impressed. I hope that tide come out with a better product for next time.
I was delightfully impressed with the quality of such a small package. Our laundry was clean, fresh and looked great. I had doubts about such a small package but it was great to be thoroughly surprised with the quality of one little pod.
I thought I would like the convenience of the pods, but I find that the blue colour sometimes leaves blue stains on white cotton. I don't know why the manufacturer needs to put strong colours (blue and red) in parts of the pod product. I am going to return the container to Costco, where I purchased it. I have used about 10 pods but I won't do this again. Too bad, but that's the way it is.
I was so happy when Tide introduced Tide pods, I could not wait to buy them! I wish I would have read some of these product review before I did. Recently these Tide pods have turned all my husbands black police uniforms and some of my favorite black leggings and shirts discolored with white/grayish spots on them! I tried rewashing them right away thinking it was just a residue but when I did so the stain never came out! It also stained my towels that were a light green color I now have white/grayish blotches all over my towels. I have used Tide my whole life and never had any issues with. Very unhappy!
We rented a beach house for vacation and prior to leaving, we started a load of laundry with a TIde Pod in the house's top-loader washer. We were contacted by the owner afterwards that the white sheets had blue stains that wouldn't come out. We couldn't figure out how an entirely white load could get stained with blue but fortunately the owner was very nice and refunded the whole damage deposit. Mystery solved this week when we used Tide pods in our front-loader and found the seal coated in blue slime on 2 consecutive loads. We have been using TIde Pods for about 2-3 months and this is first time we've seen any blue stains. However, we have had unexplained bleached out spots on our dark T-shirts since using the Pods. I like the pre-measured concept (esp with front-loaders prone to smelling if using too much detergent) but current version of Tide Pods are unacceptable for home use. I'm going back to liquid Tide HE and P&G needs to take Tide Pods back to the product development lab.
I absolutely love the convenience of PODS. Not only that but they work awesome on all my laundry, including my husband's filthy work clothes. I save a lot of time and money by having them pre-measured. I also love the smell.
The new Tide Pods are the best thing I have found for my black clothes. It does not leave detergent marks like other products.
I love the Pods. They are fantastic and I will use them as long as they make them. There is no wet, drippy liquid to mess with anymore. No measuring and pouring, I simply through one Pod in while my washer is filling, then I put my clothes in. I have not had any problem with them not dissolving or leaving any marks on them like others have said. I really do think they are fantastic!
I do a TON of laundry. 5 kids and 2 adults=6+ loads a week. The Pods are great, no dissolving issues, no residue issue. I use cold water & wash in large loads usually. I keep a small bottle of Tide w/ Bleach for stains that need a treatment and then use the liquid w/ that item in the wash. My kids w/ skin allergies are great w/ all Tide products so far. I do agree w/ another review in wanting to see these come in Original and maybe some of the regular Tide scents. More coupons wouldn't be bad either!
I love the Tide Pods, they are easy to use, clean very well an no mess. I read some of the reviews and would like to say I have had no problems with the Pods only good results. Thanks Tide.
Toss and go is a great idea but I have found that a few loads have ended up having to be re-washed! The "wrapper" is not dissolving completely and I have found tiny pieces stuck to garments. My solution is to pre-dissolve in a measuring cup of boiling water but even then I find "snotty" threads of un-dissolved material. I do love the way Tide Pods clean though!
Tide pods turned an entire load of white clothes into blue splotchy clothes. I expected much more from Tide. There was no warning anywhere on the bag to this effect.
After using Tide I am impressed at how well it cleans.
We have been using the Tide pods for a few weeks now. My teenage son kept complaining that he shorts were coming out of the wash with pink stains or, on dark shorts, bleachy, pinkish spots. After approximately $200 worth of shorts were ruined, I got online to try and figure out what was going on. After reading many of the reviews on this page, I decided to do a little at home testing. What I found is, bascially, our pods are not dissolving all the way no matter what our water temp is and no matter how full or empty the washer is. So, we have gone back to liquid detergent. I was really excited about the convenience of the pods, but we simply cannot afford to have hundreds of dollars worth of clothes destroyed in a matter of weeks. Also, I noted the comments about the lack of cleanliness some people had noticed and the lack of a fresh smell. These are things I had also noticed over the past few weeks, but had not put two and two together on until reading through some of the reviews. One wash back in with regular liquid detergent and my towels are already smelling fresh and clean again. Pods are a great idea, but they clearly need some more development to work out these issues.
The only clothes that came out 'great' were brand new clothes worn once.The other clothes were NOT brightened.They were cleaned,but dingy white t-shirts remained dingy.& the stain-removal action was non-existent.They were convenient,though.No measuring.Just toss & go.
I love Tide Pods. I don't think I will use anything else ever again. The only thing I do not like is the lack of scent. I do not notice a scent from the Pods themselves on my clothes. But, I am happy with how well they clean, without the mess of powder or liquid everywhere.
I have been doing laundry for 40+ years, have always used Tide. Started with the powder. switched to liquid, and then got a sample of Tide Pods. Wow! What a great surprise, this little packet has it all, stain fighters, great scent and of course that great Tide cleaning power. I know I sound like a paid commercial, but believe me, I would never recommend anything that I didn't truly believe in. If you haven't tried it do yourself a favor, buy some, I think you will be pleasantly surprised.
I got a free sample and was pleased with the ease of use. Just toss it in, no more measuring. The smell was very nice when I opened the washer. I will be buying this product.
I really like these new Tide Pods but I can't stand the smells. I'm really hoping they decide to make them unscented or original scent. The odor is overpowering to me. But they work great!
I really like the fact I'd toss the pod in the washer without having to measure detergent for each load. It makes laundry even easier!
Tide Pods are the newest thing out there. And for people out there who are saying that tide pods leave a gel residue after you're done washing that is a lie. Keep making tide pods and lots of them.
I love the pods. Pop them in and let it go. They work great for me. I take care of my elderly father and also have a messy 8 year old and they work wonders on the clothes ! I would however like to see some coupons out for the pods. No matter where I look no coupons :(
I used to love the pods, until I got to the middle of the bucket and found over 20 pods stuck together, I have used scissors, it has been a mess. Thanks, but no thanks, waste of money for me. The heat ? I don't know but yuck, money out the door.
When using the pods packet, I looked for a new product which I hoped would be a new breakthrough. In washing my whites with the pod packet, it stained my ENTIRE large load, with this red stain throughout. I had to rewash my entire large load once again with another detergent to get the stains out. First I used a large amount of bleach, oxiclean, let it soak and then rewashed. I'm headed back to the store to return the unused portion to get a refund. I do not recommend this product.
I have 7 teens or young adults that live in my home. They all do their laundry on their own. These Pods stop the excessive use of detergent. It stops them using to much detergent or to little. I find I save money using the pods because they don't just pour the detergent in the washing machine. I bought then because I love Tide and I love the convenience. I had no idea it would save me money as well.
What a great product! No more measuring and worrying about adding multiple products to get super clean clothes.
Does a good job getting clothing clean the 1st time.
I have a front loading machine and clean it out after every use. I found part of the outside material of the pod actually glued to my machine. It took a lot of time to pry it loose. I am wondering if there are other parts where I can't see them. I always use cold/cold water to wash my clothes. maybe if used hot/cold, it would have denigrated the complete product. Won't use again.
I used the tide pods on my family's SHIRT load- WONDERFUL, smell great! Everything came out smelling wonderful after being dried on the line, and I was super scared that they plastic would be left in my washer( I don't own HE) well no plastic was left behind, totally dissolved!!!!! I will using this on a regular basis for this load of laundry. I do like the Purex Crystal's which I have been using but for the price of Tide Pods it's going to average out to be the same in the long run. I'm sure your wondering about the rest of our laundry- my house if full of ALL BOY'S and a husband- I'm the only girl- therefore LAUNDRY get's REALLY dirty around here. For Jean's/Jean Shorts I use my regular laundry detergent(purex or sun) and I use a cap full of PINE SOL(ALOT of dry cleaners do this and I bet most of you didn't know this) If jean's are real bad, 2 caps fulls. Get's the sweat out, get's the dirt out, try it! You will be impressed.(Recommend not using FABULOUS and just use regular pine sol) For towels-sun or purex laundry detergent and 1/2 cup Clorox Bleach 1 week, 1 cap full of clear amonia the next-switch up White's- sun or purex laundry detergent and I use a cap full of purex crystal's**I WILL BE REPLACING THE PUREX CRYSTAL'S WITH TIDE PODS NOW Shirt's-sun or purex laundry detergent and I was using a cap full of purex crystal's**I WILL BE REPLACING THE PUREX CRYSTAL'S WITH TIDE PODS NOW I don't dry anything except socks/underwear everything is line dried year round- saves the life of your clothes and a bit of exercise never hurt anyone- plus the savings always helps out. So as of now I don't know how the end product is if you dry a load- since I only did a shirt load thus far, but line drying our shirt's came our smelling/lasting longer than the Purex Crystal's
I just used pods today for the first time and at first I was skeptical because I was wondering if that little thing would clean all the clothes. I have two little boys and boy oh boy do we have stains. Well I did a wash with a pod and the stains were gone. They are nice for traveling because they have a stain remover with the pod so there is no need to carry an extra stain remover. I have to say they work well.
I am completely sold on the PODS love the product.
I tried Tide Pods for the first time just a couple weeks ago and I am hooked! Love how it is super easy to just toss the pod into the washing machine and not have to worry about the possible mess of the liquid detergent. LOVE this product. I will defiantly be using these more often!
I love Tide Pods! They are so convenient. I love the packaging. So easy to use. You just grab one and toss it in the washer. So easy! Gets your clothes clean and makes them smell fresh.
I have been a Tide user longer than I can remember. But I won't buy the pods any more. They don't dissolve in my front loader machine and leave a "gunky" mess. I still love Tide but am going back to Tide liquid which worked much better.
I took the tide pod sample on my vacation. My family and I stayed in a time share and they provide laundry detergent for your use. When it came time to do laundry I used the tide pod and my clothes came out as beautiful and clean as when I use the tide liquid. Normally I take my tide liquid but with the pod it was small and took up little room in my luggage.
I love the Tide pods, but I have sensitive skin, so I have to use the Tide Free. I hope that you will come out with the pods in Tide Free with softener Free of dyes and perfumes. I used the sample for my husband.
I like it. Very easy to used. My clothes come out clean, brighter, and smells great. I only try it on my light color laundry because I was afraid it will fade away the dark color if I used this pod since it had a brightener agent.
I love how easy it is to do laundry and love how good my clothes smell after being cleaned!
I didn't see any difference in the way this cleans. My regular cheap detergent did the same job. I was hoping to see a drastic difference in how my clothes were cleaned.
I used my free sample and I did not notice much difference with my clothes except for the fact of the scent. My clothes smelled so good. I have tried many fragrances and none ever did this. I could not believe how good they smelled.
I really appreciate the pods not only because it has the quality care of Tide but I have noticed that I do not go through laundry as quickly. I understand the higher price especially for the quality and the simplicity of this product. I am curious to see if you will be coming out with a fabric softener as well. Thanks. Shannon
I have heard that there is no bleach in these tide pods but I bought a large container from Costco and put in tan towels and now the towels look as if they are light pink in spots almost as if bleach had been used. Glad it was only towels and not some expensive clothing but I"m very disappointed as I have always trusted the Tide brand but these pods are a bust, will go back to regular tide, but now I"m stuck with this large container of pods that I"m sure Costco won't take back since they are open.
I purchased the PODS because I live in an apartment building and love the fact that I can carry 1 or 2 PODS with me to the laundry room rather them lug a bottle of detergent. When I wash with warm water, everything ends up fine. However, when I use cold water, the PODS don't completely dissolve and it leaves a bit of the blue stuff on the clothes after washing. This blue stuff becomes hard in the dryer acting like a glue. It comes out, but it's very annoying. I like the PODS in theory, but not a fan when I find the 1 article with the blue glue.
So much less to carry home and store. Faster and less messy. My mother always used Tide powder. She would have loved this.
I love to work in my flower and vegetables gardens. I am always getting my hands dirty and wiping them on my clothes somewhere and a garden apron just gets in my way. So my clothes get really dirty and with one wash of tide my clothes come out nice and clean and looks 99% the way they were bought. I grew up on tide and I am going back to it. (if it was cheaper to buy) price is my only issue with this product, BUT if YOU want CLEAN CLOTHES you got to pay the HIGH PRICES but I STILL LOVE MY TIDE ALWAYS HAVE ALWAYS WILL !!!
This would be a great buy for families, but for those who do not always have a full load , I feel like i am spending to much for the amount of detergent i would be using .I like to determine how much detergent i am using. I have always used tide and hope that you will still the liquid. Thank you for the sample
I'm a college student and this item will really come in handy this up coming school year. I hate carrying the liquid detergent to and from the laundry room. This will make it easier because all I'll have to do is pop a pod into the washer. I used them at home and they work wonderfully. The pod dissolves and it washes the clothes
As a mother of four, grandmother to twin 9 month old baby girls that live with me and the primary caregiver for my 83 year old grandmother I have always used and trusted Tide. However, with spills and messes I have always had to depend on pretreaters and chlorine-free bleach to have stain-free clothing. I dared to try one load with a few "stained" items- dried up chocolate ice cream mainly- and am ecstatic to have my laundry come out cleaner than ever without prescrubbing or pretreating! Thank you so so much for this product!
So simple to use! I know the price is a bit higher but these take up much less space on my shelf and there was no measuring involved so it's worth a little bit extra to someone like me!
The new Tide Pods are great. I had to change to a different detergent for my new HE washer and these are so easy. Throw it in and forget it. LOVE THEM!
Tremendously easy to use. The pods keep the laundry area clean, no spills, or rings left on tables, machines or shelves, No powder floating in the air which is especially one of the thing I like. I likes being able to store the pods in a decorative container easily, and being able to keep them in a handy location because of this.
I received a free sample of this tide pods and i love them.I'm gonna start buying these .
I received a sample of Tide Pods and used it to wash a load of laundry. The scent was pleasant and the clothes were clean. Definitely easy to use.
I am a regular tide user and bought the Tide Pods to take on vacation. They left horrible blue spots on all of our laundry. After rewashing several times, it came out of the colored clothes, but the whites are ruined. Will never use again!! Not worth the risk and the loss of some great clothes.
I used the Tide pod on a regular load of laundry and it was easy to use. The clothes came out clean and smelled nice.
when you have 2 children around the house and they get into everything their clothes get the worse of it and thanks to tide it gets the stains out.
I love the ease of use with no mess, however I miss the original scent that is found with liquid and powders. The pods are a little too perfume smelling for my taste.
I liked using the pod, but I'm not sure I noticed any difference in my laundry results and I would not want to pay more for it than using my traditional Tide detergent. I have to do a price comparison and figure out if it is worthwhile.
I like the idea of the pods however this product stinks to high heaven. Can't you at least produce pods that smell as good as your powder or liquid? I had to add white vinegar to the final rinse to kill the overpowering scent. I will never buy again and plan on getting a refund.
Loved the new pods, simple to use and nice, clean, fresh smelling clothes. I've already purchased some!
I think they are perfect for traveling. My husband and son recently went to a basketball camp and had to wash jerseys daily and they worked great!
I'm a Tide detergent user and had no doubts about using pods until I smelled how fragrant it is. I use the Tide w/out fragrance and although the Pod seemed to have the perfect amount of soap and convenience (no measuring or messy drips) I won't use it again unless it's fragrance free.
i love useing tide pods its so much easier to use!
Easy to use, gets the laundry clean and smells good.
Pods, where have you been? This product is Great! My clothes are brighter, seem fresher and one Pod per load does away with spilled liquid and powder. I have the 77 count container and appreciate the various sizes. I will even take a small one on trips so when I am away I can wash clothes in hotel laundry rooms knowing my clothes will be at my command, not waiting for the concierge to bring my clothes and wondering if they wil be clean and fresh. Simply a super product! Thank you Procter & Gamble.
I have never really been a Tide user. I really considered it expensive to do the same as what many other products will do just as well. I decided to give Tide Pods a try & now it has become the only product I will use for my laundry. I cannot say enough good things about it although I would like to find some good coupons for it. I am now on my 3rd large container of the Pods....I love, love, love this detergent & the ease of use with all the additional help of brightener & stain remover in one easy step with no measuring needed. This has made my life much easier!!
Well you see, I figure out how this works. the blue and orange liquid dissolved together giving life to a fairy ( the Color Fairy) she goes inside your washer and does its magic in there,I have no clue how it works.. its just the best detergent ever! Even my kids love it, don't know why they keep on thinking its candy, But its the best! (so economic too, get the 90ct. latest forever)
One, I LOVE LOVE LOVE TIDE; and am such an avid consumer of it, it's like a mom to JIF or something. However, it IRKS me that their is no scent that comes in MOUNTAIN SPRING. WHY!?!? Additionally, I had received samples of a different brand of the same type of thing with shockingly better results. Not better enough for me to switch from Liquid Tide, but still... I was annoyed/ am annoyed... :/
It smells awful, like a bargain-brand detergent. Love the unscented Tide liquid HE, though. How about a fragrance free version of the Pods?
This was my first time buying a Tide product. I got these pods as a gift to myself because I was tired of my laundry not having a scent by the time it got out of the drier and the fact the pods have stain remover and color booster was a great incentive to me. The idea of just dropping a pack in as well was really appealing and I also found I really enjoyed the Mystic Forest scent. I am glad to say that I was not disappointed. I love these and I have never had a problem with them. I always wash my clothes in cold water and the pods dissolve easily and leave the clothes smelling great. They've done well removing stains too. The only con I can think of is the price, but for how easy they are and how effective they are, I have to say I don't mind paying a little extra.
While the PODS are handy and quick the smell is horrible! I actually rewashed my clothes with the extra off brand detergent I had at home. I am really disappointed in these. I love Tide and assumed the least of my problems would be the smell.
The PODS are quick, easy & effective. I love them!
I have now used an entire large container of this product and I can honestly say I LOVE IT!! I have a new front loading washer and with liquids I always have the issue of the left over in the cup. I tried the powders but was surprised by the fact that it cost more and how you have to search for the HE on the box because unlike the liquids that mostly are HE, the powders are not. I love just tossing in the product, no mess! I have not had a single incident with my clothes either. Thank you Tide.
I am a mother of five kids age 16-1 years old. So I do alot of washing everyday. The pods make washing easy and quick. Just pop then in and go. I hope they make one for fabric soften as well. My clothes have that same great smell,and the stains still come off.
I liked the pods, thought they were easy to use and easy to store. However, I think the price would keep me from buying them as my usual detergent.
I had run completely out of detergent and had to go get some new detergent. I saw the Tide Pods and thought that would be wonderful, we do a lot of laundry so that would make it a lot easier on us as well. I tried to use my first pod this morning, I have an HE washer and it says approved for HE, I dropped it in the washer, added my clothes and about 10 minutes into "sensing" as my washer says, it just shuts off. I've never had this problem with my liquid Tide detergent. I was really excited to buy these new Pods, but was very disappointed when trying to use them. I wish I would have read the reviews before I bought them, I would have just stuck to my normal liquid detergent.
Makes it much easier to trust the kids to do laundry, this way they can't add too much detergent :)
I bought some tide pods the other day for the first time. My family raves about the convenience.I was however a bit disappointed when half of the pods were exploded in the bag which caused me to rethink buying them again.With times the way they are I can't afford to lose any of what I pay for!!!
The pods are a waste of my time & money! I am completely disappointed with this product. I washed 2 loads of laundry TWO TIMES and neither load looks or smells as clean as Tide liquid or powder detergent. I am hoping for a refund...
I heard about this wonderful new product...Tide Pods! Deciding to give them a try the clothes came out smelling terrific! But since using the Tide pods I have ruined three articles of clothing that cost $150!! It appears that the packet did not fully dissolve and has fused the fabric together. Clothes are too expensive to be ruined by the convenience of this easy to use laundry product! Sadly it's back to liquid for our clothes. That being said If the packet dissolves fully it is terrific product!
As a treat to myself I will sometimes purchase the liquid Tide or sometimes I will ask for it as a Christmas gift; however, I thought the Tide Pods didn't smell as good after drying as the liquid Tide. I would put Tide Pods equal to my satisfaction with the cheap detergent except the Tide Pods are much more expensive.
It is convenient but I prefer to measure and pour. With the pod, the detergent seemed to break near my sweater so I had lots of white detergent spots around my sweater that made it look dirty, even though, I had just washed it.
This little guys pack a powerful punch! I work in a kitchen wearing white shirts. I had a few stains I didn't think would come out. The stains came out! Thank you Tide.
I started doing my family's laundry (7 of us) when I was 14, and always hated measuring and adding things at different times in the cycle. Pods are great except, when i got to the middle of the container most of them were stuck together in clumps of 3 or 4. I think either individually wrapping them or putting a dissolvable double coating around them, so they don't break inside the container would help.
I love how easy it makes laundry for me. I also am always looking for ways to help the environment and these produce less waste so I love that about them!! They smell great and no mess!! They dissolve great even in cold water which is what I use most of the time. These make laundry much easy for those who have to use a laundry mat too!! No more lugging that heavy detergent bottle around. I'm glad I tried them!!
I usually only use actually detergent-softeners and extra fragrances can be costly for a student. That’s why it was nice to have a load of detergent plus the extras compact in such a little package. My only concern is how much material Tide is using to produce the pods and how much energy is going into pre-packaging each load. Are the pods more environmentally and economically responsible than the traditional bottles, or less so?
I love tide pods, but I just have one request. I keep the detergent in the cabinet above the washer and it would be very helpful if there was a flat spot on the container so I could lay it on its side for easy reaching without having to pull the whole container down.
I have a front load washer with a high dispenser cup. There's no heavy jug to lift from the shelf or spilling to pour in a dispenser cup. I throw in 1 or 2 Pods and my clothes come out clean and smell good. BUT Best Of All, Even my HUSBAND couldn't mess this one up! THANK YOU TIDE! Please hurry and make a Tide Bleach Pod for my whites, that jug is heavy too! P.S. The round Pod Jug would be Better than the bag they come in. My husband is smashing them in the grocery bag!
Tide is the perfect choice. The Tide Pod sample was really convenient by tossing it in the washer. What more could you want then the detergent, stain remover and brightener in one. I do believe the clothes I washed were brighter and the stains I had on some of the clothes came out. If they sale for a reasonable price I will be using them to do my wash.
I brought this product thinking that it would help me with wastefulness.I have teenagers that pour without measure. I brought the biggest quantity without smelling it first. I HATE THE SCENT. IT ALMOST SMELL LIKE THE CLOTHES ARE SOUR.
Throw it in, let the machine do it's thing, clothes are clean, smelling good and no more measuring or lifting heavy jugs.
This product is quick and easy and gets clothes clean.
tide try to buy but to high for my budget try it out love it wish there were coupons more better so i could get often .
I absolutelly LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the pods. I broke down and bought a pack before I got my free sample, so already had used it. It is the epitome of convenience! I live in apartment building and dragging a heavy container of laundry soap is my least favorite thing to do. Now I drop a single or double pod (depending on how many loads I'm washing) on top of the clothes in my basket cart that I push to the laundry room ... and no measuring,no spilling! I love how my clothes smell, and how they look. They definitely have taken on a brighter look! No more cheap off-brand soaps for me. I truly, truly love the Tide pods.
I grew up on Tide and as my Mother did, I too only use Tide Products. My only complaint about the Pods we're that I found they we're either sticking together, or the machinery used in making them easy to pull apart was not working properly on the batch I had bought. This resulted in my self having to use any where from 2 to 4 of the Pods in a single load. My clothes are beautiful, but no so great on the pocketbook. Maybe you could look into this problem, either way I will continue to use Tide as it is the only detergent for my family.
It's wonderfully easy to use, and leaves no residue in the wash. It doesn't leave a smell on the clothes that I prefer (ie dryer sheet smell), but it definitely would cut down on the giant bottles of liquid detergent. However, it's regular price is FAR too expensive for me.
Convenient-amazing results on whites-smells great!
I bought this product to help teach my, special ed, son how to do laundry. It is simple he doesn't have to remember how much detergent to put in. The only problem I have found with this is that I need 2 pods no matter how big or small my loads are. I have hard well water and wash on cold. Maybe a cold water version will be out soon.
These would be great for kids learning to do the laundry. Just pop it in and done! I do worry about little kids and pets getting into these as they look like yummy candy or treats. Also, they are not very economical in cost per load.
Hi,I've used tide for over 10 yrs and loved the way it cleaned my clothes so when these pods came out I thought "yay" an easier way to do laundry as I am disabled.But was I wrong,I used it mon on some new clothes and the blue/purple has stained two of my new pieces.I'm very unhappy because now I'm out $ for my clothes and the $ I spent on this product.
I love this new product. It is so easy and convenient to use. Just pop it in with the clothes and the pod does the rest. Thank you for this awesome product. I used the Purex 3n1 for awhile, but really like this. It is also great for my college daughter no big bulky bottles to carry around. Love it.
good stuff but prefer the stuff without added irritants over the sample I got. Thank you for allowing me a chance to use it before spending too much on the perfumed kind. I'll opt for the white/free version from now on. Skin issues are a problem in our household. Thanks again!
I liked the Pod because of its convenience, left my clothing nice & clean. I like the idea of not having to carry heavy containers home from the store.
With a family of 4 we go through a lot of laundry each week. Typically I buy other brands - just to save money - but have used Tide in the past and it has always been a preferred brand (other than the cost). When the pods came out I figured I would try them. I liked the container and the ease of use (no mess that liquid can cause and no build up from powder). I just love them!!! 1 pod works great for a larger load in my HE washer. I have even noticed that the musty scent that my washer will get has diminished. The pods get my husband's very dirty work clothes clean (which is no easy feat) and I don't have to use stain stick. I didn't believe my clothes would be brighter (like the container said) but surprisingly they are. I will def. be purchasing these again. Thanks Tide!!
I used one pod on a pile of wet towels that I had been avoiding. They removed the stench and and any doubt in my mind that these things work!
Tide is the only detergent i would buy because it is the best
I washed my dress pants with this for the first time. I had washed these same pants before numerous time with different products and no issues. With the PODS it left blue patched all over 3 pairs of dress pants and ruined them. $50 worth of pants gone. I will never buy another Tide product !!!
I was skeptical to say the least. I used the Tide Pod in a load of mixed items including socks, small blankets, towels and my boys dirty clothes. I was surprised. The socks were noticeably cleaner then the loads done with other detergent and the other items were soft and spelled very nice. There is a very good chance that I will be using the Tide Pods in the future.
I'm writing this to let you know how upset I am. I have just found out that it is the pod's I have been using that have destroyed one of my comforters, 4 shirts, and one sun dress. They are not dissolving in the wash cycle and then when I dry the laundry whatever item of clothing it is left on is then fused together and completely ruined. I want a complete refund for what I can only think of as a disaster product. I would love to get compensation for the loss of the clothes and comforter that I have to now replace. Now that I have identified the culprit I know have to take extra measures every time I do a load of laundry. I am now a truly dissatisfied customer and will be telling all my friends about this problem. Regards
i enjoyed this product its very simple and gives good results and smells so good i wish they would make dryer sheets to match the sent.
Tide Pods worked great in my high-efficiency washer. Other detergents that claim to work in high-efficiency washers provide too much soap and leave suds in the washer, but not Tide Pods. They seem to work as well as regular Tide detergent.
Love that I don't have to measure with the new pods! Only problem I've had was that on a cold wash the pod didn't absorb and attached itself to a t-shirt. The fragrance is terrific and I will continue to use the product.
Tide is the best to use. we just had a baby and we use it and he has not broken out yea
It was very easy to use and my clothes smelled good after washing them with the Pod. I feel confident they were clean. I was hesitant to use because it was hard to believe that such a small cube could contain enough detergent to wash a full load.
Love the pods but not sure about the lack of suds. On medium loads I have used two but still no suds. Are there supposed to be suds? This would be great for my college student!
The pods are so easy to use in my new washer! Just throw it in first, load the clothes and shut the lid! How easy is that! No measuring!
I had my doubts about this small packet!!!!! Did not believe this product would clean the load of clothes I washed. To my surprise it cleaned them and they smelled good. Keep up the good work. I hope that Tide will be more economical in the future!!!!!!!!!
Laundry just became so much easier and less of a hassle. Tide Pods work wonderfully and the scent lasts longer than with the liquid. Clothes seemed even cleaner than usual. I can appreciate any product that not only saves me time but also provides such great results. I will be buying these from now on. No more measuring liquid, or spilling.
I have always used different versions of Tide and was very happy and the Pods are following suit! Not only were they convenient, they worked spectacularly and I will continue to recommend and use Tide Pods
I was not sure that I would like these pods because I have used liquid for so long. I thought it might not have enough in it, or that it would leave the little covering in my laundry. I loved it! My clothes came out fresh and clean and I was surprised that it worked! A little sad that I did not get a coupon with my sample as most samples usually come with them, but the product exceeded my expectations!! Thank you.
The Tide pods are a great way to wash your clothes and not have to worry about the mess liquid sometimes leaves....like on your counter, the bottle. Plus they are easy to travel with. We went on vacation where we needed to bring our own laundry supplies and I didn't have to worry about a mess.
This "Pod" was so easy to use, I ended up purchasing a bag of them to take on a recent trip to Yellowstone. Laundry on the go couldn't have been simpler! Thanks Tide!
Didn't notice any better smell to bedding. Only had medium size load in washer, and there was just a hint of suds.
Since I started doing laundry Tide has been the only detergent that I have used. So I got this sample of Tide Pods I love them!! Easy, no waste, smells great and have to say it doesn't look like candy!! Would highly recommend these!!
Very easy to use, but didn't totally remove older stains from kitchen towels. Smells great without being over powering!
Tide Pods are a great way to quickly get laundry done. I am teaching my teens how to wash laundry and Tide Pods have made the process simple and efficient. What a great product. Our clothes come out smelling great and looking great.
These Tide Pods are amazing. I have a baby that is constantly getting stuff all over his clothes and these tide pods put the colors right back into the clothes. Takes out all the stains imaginable. I absolutely love this product.
Clean, easy, smells great, WORKS, no phosphates?! Love it, thank you for the free sample and for recognizing that these little pods are so jazzy they need a special container to help keep them out of little hands :)
I like that these pods are ready to go! My older kids can do laundry and I don't have to worry about a mess of soap all over when they are done.
I thought the pods were very easy and worked really well on laundry. My only want would be that it had a bit of stronger "clean" smell that I love, especially with towels and sheets. Do they make these with softner? Overall, I liked the product.
Love the pods. They're easy and no mess or spilling detergent. Just pop it in my front load and I'm done. Laundry smells fresh and comes out really clean. Love it!
I used my Tide Pod on a full load of white cotton laundry and found that it worked very well. The fragrance is light and pleasant. The method of delivery (the pod) is very handy for people who have problems with spillage or difficulty screwing a cap on or off or who can't lift a heavy bottle. It is also handy for people to take along on vacations or business trips.This detergent is rather expensive to buy, compared with the prices of other brands, but some people will feel that the method of delivery, the good results, and the pleasant fragrance are worth the price difference.
The pod is the most convenient thing I've ever used> I've introduced my daughter and granddaughter to the pod and they're loving it to!!
Not only did they get the clothes clean and they smell fresh too even after they sat in the washer for a while.
This works good. I was skeptical at first, but I do like the way it cleans. It smells nice too.
I thought Tide Pods were wonderful! I used it in my wash for the first time this past weekend and my clothes still smell fantastic! Tide is a product that I trust, and I was very pleased with my results! Another plus is my son is usually very allergic to strong perfumes and so far no rash!
Not sure why we should be so wasteful as to use the same amount of detergent on a small load as on a big one!?!?!
This is a good product, but is a little expensive. I would definitely buy whenever I the product is on sale paired with coupon.
The Tide Pods ruined 3 of my shirts, did not dissolve and stained my clothes! Went back to the liquid Tide.
In a word, Tide Pods have turned out to be great. Gone are the days of measuring cups, dripping detergent bottles, and the like. I now feel free to store my laundry supplies in a regular, finished cabinet. When it comes time to do the laundry, I just toss one pod in with each load and never think about it again. And while I don’t tend to get a lot of dirt on my clothes, Tide Pods seem entirely effective at their primary job of getting my clothes clean.
Tide Pods do a great job with stains. Very helpful & very easy to use! I love this product!
I expect good results from Tide, and that's what I got. I have a fairly new (purchased Sept 2011) top-load Maytag washer, and the pod dissolved completely. I didn't notice any special scent, nor did I notice anything special about the cleanliness of the clothes. That may be because I don't have especially filthy laundry. The clothes are clean, and they smell ... fresh, if that's the right word. It's an interesting concept to not measure the amount of detergent, and I'm not sure I'm entirely comfortable with letting go of that control (yes, I do have control issues, why do you ask?). I have not yet priced this product in the store, nor compared it to the number of loads from a regular bottle of liquid, so I don't know if it will suit this budget shopper's price point.
I only use tide for my clothes..I feel that they are cleaner when I do..And I love the pods..I am actually waiting for tide to do a fabric softner in the pods..thank-you
MY FIRST LAUNDRY PODS BRAND THAT I HAVE USED, AND WAS VERY SATISFIED WITH THE RESULTS. IT CLEANED MY CLOTHES JUST AS GOOD, IF NOT BETTER, JUST LIKE A LIQUID OR POWDER WOULD. I WAS VERY SATISFIED AND IMPRESSED WITH THE RESULTS. I LOVE THE COLOR BLEACH IN IT, IT REALLY WORKS, SO I WAS VERY HAPPY WITH RESULTS. I WOULD DEFINITELY USE AGAIN, I HAVE ACTUALLY STARTED TO ONLY BUY THE TIDE PODS, AND AM VERY IMPRESSED WITH THE PRICE AS WELL. I HAVE A 1YEAR OLD SO STAINS IS A NORMAL THING FOR ME TO TRY MY BEST TO GET RID OF WITHOUT THE USE OF ANY STAIN REMOVERS. I HAVE TOLD MANY FRIENDS AND FAMILY ABOUT YOUR NEW PRODUCT AND FOR THE ONES THAT HAVE WENT OUT AND BOUGHT IT AND TRIED IT, THEY HAVE JUST AS WELL CONTINUED TO ONLY BUY TIDE PODS.
Easy to use, pretty good scent, have not checked price to see if I would buy on a regular basis.
Finally a product that provides the excellent results that I demand and the simplicity and efficiency that I prefer.
This was so easy to store and to use. Clothes came out smelling great!
Great product, that left my clothes fresh and clean! I love this new pod product, it's easy and fast for a person whose days are constantly on the go! Just throw in a pod and on with your day!
I bought a tub of Tide Pods prior to receiving my free sample because I was so impressed with the idea. I recently returned from Greenland and took a couple pods with me. They travel well from commercial air to military cargo air... the pods survived and operated well in the Danish washers. A great buy and great to travel with!
I purchased the Tide Pods, hoping they would make doing laundry a lot easier. I washed an item with a stain in it; however, the stain did not come out. Looking at the other things I've washed with the Tide Pods, I am not happy. None of the items seem to be truly clean. I would not recommend this product.
I very much enjoyed the bright clean I got when I used Tide pods. There was no residue, the pod dissolved completely, and all of the clothes felt and smelled newly washed. I also felt I could tell a brightness after just one wash. I would love to see a Tide pod bleach alternative that I could throw in with just my white to get an even bright clean. Thanks Tide!
I really enjoy using the tide pods because it not only has three in one, the detergent, booster and softener, but it also gives you just the right amount you need. Thats good in my household because my fiance uses waayy too much detergent when we make our trips to the laundry mat. I like the smell of it too. It kinda smells like candy lol. I will recommend this to everyone and its worth it every time
I use Tide because I can always count on a clean load every time. I feel that if I use other detergents, my clothes aren't getting totally clean and will have detergent residue.
I tried the tide pods on a load of sheets. They were clean and had a great scent.
I won't be buying these. I have an electrolux front loading washer. I found the skin of the pod lodged in the front by the door not completely dissolved.
Tide is a decent product however it does the same job as my other detergent that I have used for years with a lot less cost, especially with 5 month infant in the house. Cost is everything!!!!! Thank you for letting me try your new product.
I'm very disappointed with the performance of the Tide Pods. The pods do not completely dissolve causing the clothes to stick together and when re-washed, it still remains stuck on the clothes .Therefore several pieces of clothing have been ruined. I also think the Pods are expensive. Would not recommend .
We live on a farm so there is always dirt and stain issues. This was a quick, easy, no-mess way to throw in the detergent. My other half won't spill it like he does now when he tries to help me with laundry. I will use both liquid and this one alternately. Good product idea!
Love the size - love how my great my laundry looks.
Tide is a great brand.The pods are nice since you don't have to measure. However, I washed a tablecloth with a gravy stain. I washed it 3 times and the stain did not come out. Therefore I was disappointed because I was looking to eliminate liquid detergent.
Love the new Tide Pods!! Will you ever make them in Downy scents like the liquid??
Love the new pods, just wish they wouldn't exclude them on coupons.
I ordered a Free sample of Tide Pods about 2 weeks ago. Well they arrived and my family and I promptly used the sample. We were very satisfied with the results. Clothes came out looking and smelling great. I will look forward to buying the product again in the future.
Although I am a devoted Tide user, I was really skeptical when I first tried this product because I wasn't convinced the pod would dissolve in cold water. Let me tell you - it DOES! My clothes came out beautiful, clean and smelling great. I am looking forward to switching over to Pods completely and even more so to an easy laundry routine. Thanks Tide!
This is the best that Tide has ever invented it is very easy n convinent and nonexpensive detergent.I LOVE IT.........
it is really nothing to get excited about. it didnt really clean all that great, i had to use an extra pod for just my daughters' clothes...if anything, i will just go back to my regular detergent. although, they are cool, just nothing exciting.
I really like the new Tide pods. They are so convenient. You just throw them in and forget about it. I like how they get your clothes nice and clean and are so cute and tiny.
I love Tide and I was using the Tide Stain release which was the best product out there.I tried pods and I find that 1 pod never works a well as 2. If I have to use 2 each load then I can only do 32 loads which makes this too expensive to use, Also I dont need the brightener and stain remover with every load. Bring back stain release!
I loved my sample of Tide Pods Detergent. It did the job in a HE Front Loading washer with a large load of clothes. I will definitely be purchasing some Tide Pods in the future.
I have always bought the cheapest, but good smelling laundry detergent along with liquid fabric softener to get our clothing somewhat fragrant but not overpowering. My husband works a very physical job and sweats most days at work. The scent was wearing off on his clothing leaving him to smell not so fresh. I did my wash at my sister's house on 2 separate occasions. She is a regular user of PODS. I thought I'd give them a try. WE LOVE THEM. Clothes are clean and smell wonderful! Freshness lasts throughout the workday! This is what I will be using from now on!
I want to try the new tide pods i have not tried them yet and i want to i only buy tide because id=st not so harsh on my daughters skin and it cleans very well and has your clothes smelling so good.
Would be helpful if we knew exactly how many to use at laundromats with many different machine size/loads.
Pods are so convenient that I cannot wait to send my daughter off to college knowing that she will be equipped to take on her own laundry. The smell is wonderful & no mess with Pods. This is by far the #1 product on the market today! Way to go Tide for giving us such a great product!
I have a front loading washer & have gone through 2 pkgs. of Tide Pods & I just threw out the last 4 pods I had left. I have ruined 2 shirts & have had to re-wash countless other pieces of laundry. I make sure the loads aren't to large & use a super rinse cycle. These are really convenient to use & I'd rather use the pods than liquid or powder but I can't inspect each article of clothing before I throw it in the dryer.
Very easy to use and practical - no need to lug a huge bottle of detergent down to the basement. I used it with hot water on my whites and was quite satisfied with the results. It didn't get out a stubborn stain, but did a good job on the whole.
I love Tide Pods. They are neat and convenient, and reasonably priced, and do a great job of getting the wash clean and bright. The scent I tried is gentle and soft, (spring meadow), non-intrusive, and does not smell at all like "soap," or "laundry," but more like a softly scented candle in a spa. I love the product!!! I'd give it more stars if I could. I love that they are neat, also and cannot spill or drip. No bottle, no mess, more environmentally friendly.
I used your sample in an h e washing machine. I washed a load of towels and white socks with it. I didn't use bleach. It did an excellent job! Tide is usually out of my price range. But I'll get some pods for when I have tough laundry problems. Thanks for the sample!
I liked the smell and my clothes did seem cleaner but the Pod did not dissolve all the way. I didn't realize this and put the clothes in the dryer and the plastic from the pod is now stuck to a few of my clothes. I hope that rewashing will get rid of it.
Tide Pods work great in my HE machine and are so easy to just pop into the washer! No measuring and so easy my kids can do their own laundry without hassle! My clothes are always clean and fresh-smelling too! I would definitely recommend this product! I have purchased and repurchased this product myself since using my sample and loving it!
I have recently received a free sample of tide pods,and i have never tried it before,but i can say that i do look forward to using it more in the future,Good product.
I LOVE THESE PODS IT REALLY GETS CLOTHES CLEAN AND SMELLS GOOD AS WELL IT GETS GREASE OUTTA CLOTHES!!! I'M LOVING THEM AND I WAS A SCEPTIC USE WARM WATER ITS GREAT!!!!!!
Sometimes I feel the items I am washing need a little something extra - a Pod is not able to be split so the only way to add a little boost is to add another Pod - I am not comfortable doing that as often I would if I were using liquid - I can just add a little extra splash. Clothes I washed with my free sample came out great though.
This product is amazing! It smells so good and i was so excited to get my try at one and now this is my product to buy for my laundry!!..
I like the Pod product. It was easy to use and I feel anyone that goes to do laundry other than at home would love it
I work full time outside the home. There are a number of chores to do when I get home, but because family really is #1, it's worth it to do them well. You don't have to sacrifice anything with this pod. In the morning, I popped my sample into the wash since the stain remover and brightener are already in and set the washer to delay for six hours, and when I got home from work, I just put the wash into the dryer with a softener sheet. It's that easy. Stains are out, clothes are clean and bright. It saves a couple steps. I haven't checked price at the store yet, but if it is reasonable, I'll buy it.
The pod was extremely easy to use! I just dropped it in the washer, no pouring, no measuring, no mess. It did a great job on a load of white kitchen towels. They came out of the laundry clean, bright and fresh!
Worked great with heavy soil in cold water in a front-load machine. Really liked the convenience and performance but the scent is overpowering! Sons (14 and 16) would not wear clothes from this load because of the strong "flowery" smell. Had to rewash entire load to remove the scent. Would highly recommend an unscented version.
This is a wonderful, simple product. Although it seems more expensive, I think I'm using less detergent. I received a sample and have purchased it twice. My only complaint is it does not come in fragrance free.
I received 1 pod not really enough to give a true rating on the product for all my laundry. I used it on colors. They looked ok but still had some ring around the collar.
I love tide, i have always used it and my family has always enjoyed it, so why would it be different with tide pods, Iy wasnt it, its the same or a better experienece
The Tide Pod did a good job, definitely an easy way to get all of the benefits without having to spend alot of time pretreating and with a 2 year old in the house there is usually some stains. If it is affordable I would consider purchasing the Tide pods in the future.
I was really excited to try the Tide pods. I thought it would be an easy way to just throw it in the washer and press start.We did just that and when it finished, there was gooey blue and white stuff from the pods in the rubber section of the front load washing machine. The rubber part is the seal between the door and the washing tub. I was so disappointed. I really wanted it to work. I ended up having to rewash the clothes because it looked like most of the pod just got stuck. So sad :( Good try Tide.
I don't usually use Tide but must admit I love how the Pod cleaned and the ease of use. However, I am extremely sensitive to scents and hope Tide comes out with an unscented Pod.
I purchased these, and I see no miracles here at all. In fact, the outer casing was "stuck" to whatever piece of clothing that the pod was under. You don't realize it until you take the washed items out of the dryer. I had to re-wash my curtains and a number of other items. I have the Maytag Bravo series of washer/dryer, so I am up to date with appliances. NOT WORT THE MONEY. Costs more because I had to re-wash.
Seems to work as well as liquid TIde, is very convenient and a great space-saver.
I was really excited to try the new Pods product and was disappointed with the scent. I love the idea of the Pods and the convenience they offer but I will stick to Tide liquid.
The frugal side of me wonders if I truly need this much detergent, but I love the ease of use!
The Tide Pod was very easy to use, no measuring required! No mess of spilled detergent! The clothes looked great and the pod dissolved fully in the load.
I will never go back to regular detergent, All you do it toss it in and it is the exact amount you need to get your clothes as clean as they can get.
I got free sample pack i said OK I love this product and I am going to switch tide pods I love it and it one of the best product i have seem so far.
When I received my sample,I looked at that little pod and said "It sure doesn't look like much.". But when I used it on my dingiest whites,they came out clean,bright,and smelling great(even my teenagers socks!)....I was amazed! I would love to use these everyday,if the price was right. In this economy,every dollar counts.Tide is a brand I would put those dollars towards confidently.
i received my free sample and used it right away-it was great-will be buying more in the future-thanks tide
I received a free sample of Pods and tried it that afternoon. It was very easy to use, and I have to say, I was quite surprised at how well such a small "pod" cleaned my large load of laundry. Even though TIde is not my usual brand of detergent, I will probably buy Pods in the future.
i have a problem of over using soap i put alot of soap in so i never get my money's worth but with the pods i get the actual amount of loads in the container!! which saves me money on laundry soap! which makes me happy i never have to buy soap on a weekly basis anymore!!! :)
I heard a lot of hype about "Tide Pod." Between the blog posts I was reading from other mom bloggers and the giveaways they were doing and then the commercials on TV of how it saves you time doing the wash, your clothes get cleaner, and as a busy mom entrepreneur and special needs mom blogger anything to help take less time out of doing the wash surely peaked my interest. So I signed up to receive my sample. We had purchased some liquid Tide in the meantime, but I really hate liquid detergent it makes such a mess you really never know the correct amount to use. The bottles get messy, your rack where the bottle sits gets sticky and I just hate picking up messy detergent bottles. But what I liked the most was the smell of my clothes and how cleaned they looked. We all love doing laundry in my house. My husband really enjoyed the smell and my son with Down Syndrome loves to fold the clothes. So laundry really is a family affair in our house. I love using Tide products and am very interested seeing how the Tide Washing Machine Cleaner works. Would love to do a product review for that. Thanks Tide for making the ugly job of laundry easy and fun.
I received a sample of the Tide Pods in the mail. I was extremely pleased with the product. My laundry was clean, crisp and smelled great. I don't like detergents that have really strong smells but do want my laundry to smell fresh. This one hit the mark. Excellent product that I will definitely purchase.
Popping Tide Pods in my washer was the easiest laundry related thing I have ever done. I didn't have to measure the detergent or put additives in the wash.
I liked the idea of the PODS but wish it came in the free option. Our family has sensitive skin and use the free and clear detergent. If the PODS came in a fragrance free option I would buy them regularly.
it was easy, three in one no pre staining, or softner, results i was very happy, you got a new customer, its worth spending the extra penneys
I love the way the tide pod brightened my clothes in color and it made them smell so good. I would recommend this product. I will definitely be buying the pods now that I got to sample them.
I received my Tide Pod: Spring Meadow sample a few weeks ago and tried it on the very next laundry day. I loved it. The clothes come out clean, there's no pouring to deal with and the smell is amazing. My husband and I loved it so much, we switched from the liquid Tide Total Care to the Pods. The only drawback is the Tide coupons exclude the Pods. I don't know why this is, but I would like to be able to find a coupon for the Pods like I used with the liquid Tide.
I really enjoyed my sample of Tide Pods and used it on a load of whites. It cleaned them wonderfully!!! However, my only "complaint" is about the smell. I was NOT a fan of the scent they mailed to me (Spring Meadow). I would love to give them a second chance, but only if there is another scent available. Other than that, I really liked it!!!
Thanks for the free sample! I had wanted to try your pods laundry detergent product in my new HE machine. The scent was lovely and cleaning great, but the gooie mess left behind by the pod casing was not. The pods may be great in a regular machine, but in my HE, not!!
It was super easy, just throw a pod in the machine. Clothes came out smelling great.
I received a free sample pod via the Tide Facebook fan page. I'm not an avid Tide user, but recently discovered that their Febreeze Sport detergent actually washes out cigarette smoke smells. Living in the Big Apple means it's a big hassle to lug around a huge bottle of detergent to the laundromat. The small Pod certainly made the trip a bit easier. An additional perk is that the Pod goes directly into the drum with the clothes -- bypassing the machine's dispenser, which can often be clogged up with build-up from prior customers. Would definitely consider buying the Pods, especially if they come out with a Febreeze Sport version.
I used the pod & saw no difference in the laundry results. Whether I buy it on not will be determined by the price per load vs. the Tide liquid I now use. But it sure was easy!
Well these little guys are wonderful. We have two homes and I also travel frequently to stay at the home of a good friend. I take a couple of pods with me in a baggie with a dryer sheet and voila, travel laundry kit. We Americans love our convenience items, and this is a great example of convenience. Greatest thing since sliced bread :-)
The Tide Pod is very easy and convenient for anyone to use.
Thank you for the best thing you ever made. My husband doesn't tolerate the strong smells from most laundry detergent and I hate a scentless one. So since he loves Tide; that is what we buy. I love that this makes it so easy! Keep up the good work on the pods!
Anything that saves me time is worth the $$. I always say you get what you pay for. Clothes including stains came out great and smell wonderful!!
I received my sample today... just in time to put in my next load of wash. What a pleasure... I tossed in the pod and pushed start. It couldn't be easier... no measuring, no mess. The clothes came out as nice as can be. Thank you for a great product.
A tip for all front load washer users, make sure the pod is in the back bottom of the drum, my pod got stuck in the front of the machine then never used all soap from the pack.
i absolutely love all tide products, i just wish that the coupons in the papers were a little better as i have a house hold of 5 and two of them are one month old twins so needless to say saving money is everything to me, along with providing my family with good looking clothes. one time i switched to another brand and it didnt take long for me to switch back. i love the pods...they make doing laundry a little easier! Thanks a bunch Tide!
The tide pods give you the clean you expect from Tide with ease of use. They would be perfect for students living in dorms or others that have to go to a laundromat.
Pods are a quick and easy way to do your laundry. You just toss one in, put in the Downy in either the Downy Ball or a Softener Dispenser, and walk away. The Package says it contains Stain removers and brighteners. I have to say that it may contain these, but I'm not seeing the brightness or the stain removers at work in my finished laundry. You would have to boost it more with the Stain Boosters or the pre-treat, and as for the brightener, I'm not sure what to use for that outside of the usual suspects of either baking soda, hydrogen peroxide, or vinegar. (Not all together though. That's asking for trouble.) In other scents, and adding the Downy or even maybe adding in some Febreeze to the Pod, this looks to be a great product, though. For my own wash needs, it doesn't completely do everything that I need it to do like the other liquid forms of Tide would do, like odor removal for my sweats, and bleach alternative for my colors, but it is a nice form for a quick, I need it in like three hours and don't want to be fumbling with a cap to measure out the soap. Also, it would be a good, quick travel laundry soap, should you have to wash some clothing because you simply need that outfit that you wore a couple of days ago because you're going somewhere nice and forgot to pack another nice outfit.
Just tried the new pods. Noticeably brighter colours, but the scent is horrible! Smells like cheap overpowering perfume. It's SO strong! I had to rewash to get rid of it. Please please make an unscented version of this.
I love this product. Our clothes have never looked and smelled so good. I also would like to say I like the Unstoppables as well.
You have a new customer! I used the sample & LOVED IT! Tide Pods is my new favorite detergent for my front load washer and any future washers. Thank you!
I wasn't sure how this would work for me, because I often have different sized loads. I used this with a fairly large load of heavy laundry and it worked great. The stain remover worked very well, even with a greasy food stain.I was very impressed,thank you.
I love this product, I was hooked the first time I bought it! Won't go back to anything else ever again! Just wish it was a little cheaper!! AWESOME product, keeps my clothes smelling amazing even after I have worn them all day!! GREAT JOB TIDE!!!
While I love the idea, the scent is too strong. I have used packets like this and have been much happier with the smell but not as happy with the cleanliness. These on the other hand are way too strong on the smell. Be careful which scent you pick up.
Just pop one in and you are done. I no longer need to pull out a dirty item from the machine to wipe detergent dripping down the side of the cap or bottle. Kind of sad tho cause it makes the detergent compartment irrelevant.
I live in a smaller household but we are both super busy so laundry can be a hassle. I love the fact I can just grab a pod and throw it in the wash and know my clothes will be clean and vibrant. My only complaint is that I still have to use fabric softener but since we switch between sheets and liquid depending on the load it's actually a good thing. I love these Pods-they are a lifesaver!
I wash my clothes at the local laundromat and when I saw the Tide Pods at the store they were easier than lugging around those heavy bottles of detergent and stain remover!! I brought with me how every many pods I needed and my fabric softener! So easy!
I really enjoyed tide pods they work as well as the liquid detergent that i love using. Tide is definately the way to go.
I am a Tide person. I almost always use Tide products in my home. I have seen these pod versions of laundry detergent and I was unsure of the quality. I've tried another brand of pods and I did not feel like my clothes came out of the washer clean. I figured that I would try my trusted brand-Tide. The Tide pods come packaged in a fun container. It was so easy to just throw one pod in and be done!
I received a sample of Tide Pods and I was a little unsure at first about the product. I do not usually use Tide for my laundry but wanted to try something new. When I received the sample and opened it, I was a little overwhelmed by the scent; it was really heavy and seemed to hang in the air even after I had put the product away. However, after I used the product on a load of laundry I was impressed. The ease of just throwing this tiny capsule into my laundry and then walking away is great and it gets the job done. The only complaint that I seem to really have is that fabric softener is not included in the product. I would recommend this product to others and I am seriously considering purchasing the product, as long as it fits into my budget.
We are completely impressed with tide pods. As a family who was strictly either Gain or All for detergent, we were surprised by the ease of use and effectiveness of this product. We have already purchased the big container of pods for our next laundry run. I love it!! Looking forward to more and perhaps longer lasting scents, hopefully in the near future
We loved Tide Pods at our house! They make laundry so simple! As a Mother of a high school baseball player we do lots of laundry and it works really well on the baseball dirt! Thanks Tide!
Tide has been our "laundry detergent of choice" for over 20 years; we have come to rely upon Tide for getting the clothes clean and keeping the colors vibrant. I used the free sample of Tide Pod on a load of my sons' mixed color t-shirts. I was impressed by the ease of use - just pop the pod into the washer, without worrying about spilling a liquid detergent! The t-shirts came out freshly cleaned, with vibrant colors. My sons were not so happy with the amount of scent left in their t-shirts. I will use Tide Pods on our towels and sheets, but not on the boys' clothes. I am hoping that a future iteration of the pods will be "scent-free", so all of our clothes can be vibrant and scent-free (with no more liquid detergent drips to clean up) soon!
Wonderful to be able to buy only one product that does it all...but it would be much better if we had coupons to use!!
The Tide Pods are terrific. I cut back on the amount of laundry I do, by teaching my 3 teenagers how to do their own laundry. The Tide Pods make it even easier for them. No complaining now!!! Love it!!
I am someone who actually cares about how my clothes look and smell when I wash them. I have tried many detergents but I must say that Tide Pods are great. They are convenient to use since all I ever need per load is 1 pod. My clothes come out clean and smelling fresh. The only thing that can make them better is when I start to see coupons for them like I do for other Tide products. I highly recommend them.
I got a free sample in the mail today and tried it tonight. Worked fine but would check price per load and compare it with my usual detergent before I would use it. I generally get the cheapest detergent I can to save money.
i tell every-one thats TIDE what they smell clean & fresh
I love the new Tide pods. If there is one drawback, it is that I don't always do a full load of laundry. Sometimes I want to wash just one or two things, which would warrant less detergent. Are you considering makeing different size pods for the different size loads?
I love the new Tide Pods Detergent it makes my life so much easier. I just start the washer put in a tide pod and the clothes and walk away. There is no measuring no spilling and it smells incredible. This stuff is a time saver.
I really enjoyed the fact that I could just toss the pod into the drum and not have to measure and pour from what can be a messy jug. Great job TIDE!
The all-in-one is awesome. You just toss it in the washer and you're done! Now to just add the fabric softener...
Loved the ease of not having to measure and pour out the laundry soap. Just threw it in my front loader and started the machine. I am a softener fanatic and was pleased with the outcome. I would use this again if it's in my "laundry budget"! :) BTW: People have ALWAYS called me the "LAUNDRY QUEEN" because I am serious about my whites being white and my colors keeping their vibrant colors.... and I happened to use this in an all red load and was happy everything came out bright and clean. NICE JOB TIDE! :)
My wife asked me to get the new pods before the sample arrived in the mail. She is very happy with the product since she felt that the old gallon container of liquid was too heavy to lift. Costco now stocks the new pods which we purchased and are happy with the results.
In my opinion, the Tide Pods I received a sample of were too heavily perfumed. They did not leave my clothes with a clean, fresh scent; I do not like strong perfumes. I will never buy or use these, unless they make a 'perfume free' version.
My son once got upset with me because his football uniform was too white. I have used Tide with Bleach for as long as I can remember. I was hesitant to try the pods but I did. My grandchild has filthy white socks. The came out of the washer the way they went in....filthy. I hope P&G doesn't stop making Tide with bleach powder
I have been having a hard time keeping my white clothes white. They inevitably always end up looking grey and dingy. When I heard about the tide pods I was excited to try it out. With a stain treatment as well as a brightener I didn't think that I could hurt my clothes by trying. I loved the results!!! My husband and I could actually see a difference in our clothes after only one wash. It got even better with additional washes! Thank you Tide for coming up with something that works!
Love having no messy bottle to deal with.Also I like maybe thinking this will eliminate the need for so many bulky items to recycle at the dump.My only wish is that it would have softener built in.Good to take to the laundrymat!
The pods cleaned better than the gain I have been previously using. My husband does construction work and has really dirty clothes. The pods did an amazing job!!! Since trying the sample I have changed to the pods for good great job Tide!!!
I would not purchase this product for everyday use..I feel the price is a little to high for that use even if it does the job. It cleaned my laundry just as well as the other Tide products I use. I would surely buy it for a trip or camping because it is so portable and no measuring device needed. I do wish there were different load sizes of the product in case I wanted to do a small "delicate" load of laundry instead of having to use a pod that is meant for a normal size load. Overall a handy product that works well.
I used the Tide Pods for about 6 loads of laundry this week, and thought they worked great! However, I noticed yesterday that my black dress pants have some sort of white residue on them. I didn't think anything of it until I put on a black top today, and noticed the same thing. I haven't noticed any other loads with this, just the dark one. Has this happened to anyone else, or was it a fluke?
This is a great innovation in doing laundry. A tried and true product is now in a convenient pod that is excellent especially for people who have to use laundry mats, no spills or heavy boxes/bottles to haul. Great for children who do laundry too.
i never love to do laundry till i started using tide. Just the freshness of the smell of my laundry is a great feeling.. Having four little girls things can get very messy , but with tide by my side im actually ok with the mess :)
Tide Pods are a great way to save time on measuring out detergent. My only qualm is that they might have been a wee bit too strong smelling. I used my pod in a pretty large load and all of the clothes smelled very good when I got them out but I think it was a little bit too strong for me and stronger than the regular tide liquid.
i have used the cheap brands for a long time and noticed the stains would stay and the clothes just didn't look bright and clean, so i bought the small pack of tide pods and tried it. Wow my stains came out and the clothes never looked better, i felt like an idiot for not switching sooner.. I was not saving money because i kept using more of the cheap brand. I also love how easy the tide pods are to use and you dont waste any because it is all measured in one tidy little pod
It was very handy to have all the products in a handy pouch and not have to measure. It worked well on a load of whites. I liked everything about the free sample except for the scent. I like to use regular Tide and then add Downy. I like the plain old scent of both.
I appreciate the sample of the Tide Pods Detergent. I have used Tide for years and always since I got a front loader machine. It is dependable and always does a good job.
Tried my free sample and what a joy to use. I go to a laundromat every 2 weeks and it was a joy not to lug detergent boxes and a scoop. I just took my pod and laundry basket. Already purchased more and will tell my friends they should try Pods soon.
I used Tide Pods for the first time ....It is the next best thing to sliced bread. Tide Pods are the only thing I use now. Quick and easy no more measuring or lugging around that jug. Thank you for an AWESOME product!!! Also thank you for the sample!! :D
I was thrilled at how simple it is to use; just "POP" it in and go. It smells really nice and did a good job on our cloths.
Tide Pods are so convenient and easy to use. My older boys can even throw in a load of laundry! They work just as great as regular Tide. Definitely recommend!
I loved how easy it was and I love the scent. Now I wish they could make it in unscented, for my family members with skin sensitivities.
It is so easy just to throw the pod into the washer and not worry about everyday stains not coming out. So nice not to have to lug around heavy jugs of detergent! I thank you and my back REALLY thanks you, TIDE PODS!
This product is the best invention for the washer. No more pouring, dripping, thick laundry detergent. It's a must buy
Drop one in the washer and it dissolves quickly. Not much scent though. It cleaned OK, but not fantastically.
Who has time to measure detergent? the pods pack a punch and get the job done with great results! I LOOOVE them!
I love the fact that my clothes come out clean and smelling fresh with the Ocean Mist scent I like. Also, I never have to "over guess" the amount of liquid TIDE I need for a load. Regular load - one pod. Larger load - two pods. I'm actually saving more money per load because of the accuracy of using the pods!
It was so easy, there wasn't any measuring just pop in a pod and walk away. And my laundry was just as clean as using the liquid detergent. Great job tide!!!
This is a great product. I highly recommend that if you, yourself haven't tried this new tide product that you should do so now.My overall experience with the tide pods was great. You only have to throw the pouch into the washing machine and then load your clothes. It is a lot less time consuming than putting in your fabric softener and laundry soap. It also has stain removers built into the packet too! My laundry smelled great and the packet actually dissolved on it's own. The clothes were clean,smelled great and even some of the stains were removed in the process of washing.
Convenient and easy to use. Clothes came out clean and smelling great.
Never tried tide before and I love the pods. Clothes look so clean and bright and they smell AMAZING!! Love it!!
I was skeptical at first as to why use Tide Pods. After using the sample i recieved i am a total believer and user of this product now. It makes the laundry task simple, just start the washer..throw in a pod and be done with the cleanest, freshest and brightest laundry result. I am also happy that it is good for our eco system as less plastic jugs to fill up our landfills. Very impressed and hopefully the world catches on!
my fiance loved the pods wish we could have more, maybe when we have enough money
tide has been a great buy for me it has gotten grass staines out of my husband pants .my whites are looking white, and my wash has never looked better.I love my tide.
i like the easy and one stop method of this product but the only thing i noticed was the scent needed to be a bit stronger.. but i do like strong scents so the clothes smell fresh all day long that you wear them, that is the clean i like
I love the idea of these...convenient, no mess, no measuring...I'm just not a fan of the scent I received in my sample - Spring Meadow. If they are available in the regular tide scent, I would definitely spend the extra money to use them regularly.
i really liked the ease of the PODS. After the load was finished I loved how my clothes smelled. I also feel that they are more environmentally friendly.
I used the sample on my whites and I was pleasantly surprised at the outcome. I would consider buying Tide pods again if I find that saves me money and time!
Seems like it only worked well for small loads. I bought a bag and used it for large loads with colors. I still had some stains and still some odor. I am not sure about this one.
I love that the new pod is less messy. If I ever spill liquid detergent, I had to travel all the way across the house to a tap. It does seem to be doing a good job at stain removal on my son and daughter's baseball and softball uniforms. I have only had to re-pretreat once and wash again. The only drawback with the pods that I have experienced so far is that with my new Whirlpool Duet front-loader, some of the blue gel from the packet is sometimes stuck under the door seal and never dissolves. Wish I could solve that with the placement of the packet somehow.
Wow!! My clothes came out brighter, cleaner of course and had a great smell. It was easy to use too!!
Has anyone notice the white liquid at the bottom of the bag when you get down to the bottom? Are the pods disintegrating? This has happened in each bag I purchase.
We received a sample in the mail and washed a load that included my daughter's fast food work pants. Food stains, grease stains all came out with no additional treatment. In fact the pants were cleaner than before! I would definitely recommend Tide Pods
I have used Tide in the past and I really like the results. I was, however, disappointed when I washed a small load of whites in hot water with the pods. The water wasn't very sudsy and the clothes came out dingy. I used the same amount of bleach as I usually do but they weren't clean. I washed them again with regular Tide and they came out cleaner. I would have liked this to be a way to keep from lugging around a big bottle of detergent. I guess I'm stuck with it for now.
After using the Pods I kept noticing a plastic coating on a couple items of clothing. I realized it was the plastic coating from the pod that had melted onto the clothing. Everytime I used them I would find at least one item of clothing with the plastic coating melted onto the clothing. I have always used Tide but will go back to the liquid.
Never bought Tide because I just could never afford it before. Found the new Pods at Sam's Club and thought it was a fabulous deal and so happy that I could finally use "the best laundry detergent out there". Well,,after numerous attempts to try to get the blue stains out of clothes, sheets, etc., I had to go and buy Oxyclean to add to the laundry that I had to rewash. It finally worked,,,but now I have a box of Pods sitting there next to the cheaper brands that work just fine! Wasted my hard earned money! And please don't say I didn't use them right, I even tried squishing them in my hands and stirring the water to avoid the stains! UGH!
Tide pods are excellent at cleaning clothes. They save time and money since the stain remover and detergent are in 1! Another great product from Tide and P&G!
I have to admit, I am getting older when I find it difficult to control a large, clumsy bottle. Many times I have poured too much into the wash water, unable to retrieve what I had accidentaly poured, I have wasted the liquid. Portion control will help me control my expenses on my family budget. Size will help me as I experience the uncomfortable arthritis. Thank you.
Other than doing the best job in cleaning my clothing, I do prefer my clothes to SMELL clean and nice. The smell is a big factor. I loved the tide powder detergents that I can't find at my local stores anymore so I decided to try to the pods...ocean mist. Firstly, some of them didn't dissolve all the way and secondly the smell is horrible. It almost gets the job done but I have figured out, if I use fabric softener and a little bit of color bleach with the pods, the clothes are cleaner.
I have been pretty happy with the pods and love how easy and convenient these are, however out of a container of these we have had at least 3 that have not dissolved. Which means I have to pick out a thing of goo out of the washer, and I've had to rewash a few items that the goo was still on. Not convenient when you are planning to wear a shirt that would have gone in the dryer, and you don't have time to wash+dry it again.
used the pod to wash a load of white clothes. Good job,
These are great. Simple to use and my laundry came out looking fantastic. The only thing I wish is they had more of the original Tide scent to them. I love the smell of Tide original.
It was fun to pop the pod into the washer and walk away. My husband loved the scent on the clothes when they were done (we do not normally use a fabric softener), but I thought the scent was somewhat overpowering. We normally use the unscented Tide. (Also, our machine is about a half load of a normal machine, so a pod may be too much for us.) But I liked the product.
Put in a load of undershirts, etc. There was a small place on one my husband's undershirts and I wanted to see if it would come out without pre-treating; it was a fresh stain, so I thought it should come out; well, it didn't even come close. The clothes just didn't seem to be as fresh as I expected.
I hate dragging big gallons of detergent to the laundry; along with a hamper full of clothes, these little suckers get the job done and they fit in my pocket, my clothes are brighter than ever, they even remove makeup stains! They will definitely become apart of my laundry routine
I have Fibromyalgia and RA. I like using the Tide Pods because they are so light to pick up, it causes me less pain than if I were to have to pick up a heavy bottle of detergent.
I really like the Tide pods. They take away any mess or spills that might occur. Drop it in the water and add your laundry - that's all.
I would love to have the option to buy smaller pods. We have a front loader washer and a water softener that require very little water and detergent for a wash cycle. With the Tide HE liquid detergent I currently use, I am at least able to control the amount of liquid detergent needed but it is a little messier. If the pods were offered in a smaller size, I would use the pods exclusively. I would have given this product 5 stars instead of 3 if the pods came in a smaller size.
Being one who uses Tide Free RELIGIOUSLY I was very skeptical about try these. Had heard good things from friends and saw a free sample opportunity so I thought, 'Why not?!' You know what? I'm SO GLAD I did. I enjoy doing laundry, except the measuring out the soap and rinsing out the cup part. This totally got rid of that! These make our clothes super clean and leaves behind a scent for DAYS after washing. I washed a t-shirt and didn't wear it for 8, yes EIGHT days after washing... the wonderful scent was STILL there. I refuse to buy anything else now. Thank you, Tide! For making a 'chore' I already love into something even better!
At first I didnt really think these small packs would do much, so I purchased the smallest bag available just to give them a try! I love them! I am shocked that they worked so well. I noticed my clothes were much brighter and to top it off.....my husband's dairy work clothes even smelled great! I dont think I can ever go back to regular detergent again!
I can say with confidence that Tide has a winner with Tide pods.I was satisfied with the sample i was sent. More please!
I love that you don't have to worry about measuring or spilling any detergent. It's simple enough for my perteen son to wash clothes without using too much detergent.
I am not surprised I love this product. But the convenience of the pod is excellent! What took so long?
I am a long-time Tide user so I was happy to receive a free sample of the new Tide Pods. I used the sample to wash a small load of dish cloths and kitchen towels in hot water. I must admit that I was disappointed in the results. The towels smelled OK (no lingering grease or food odors) but they were not clean. They came out of the wash still heavily spotted and had to be laundered again. I will continue to use Tide liquid and powder but I will not be buying the Pods.
i used my sample of tide PODS and it got rid of stains!!
I bought the tide pods and liked the idea. Easy but the problem encountered as the outer casing of the pod did not fully dissolve and I did not notice it right away till I had hard crust on blanket after drying. I find it best to break outer sack and throw away I will go back to good old Tide
I received the Tide Pods sample in the mail and tossed it in my next load of clothes grateful for the free wash, but not really expecting anything different from the Tide liquid I usually use. The difference I noticed right away was how great everything smelled right out of the washer (I didn't even use fabric softener on this load, in order to be able to note any differences). Looks like I'll have to be on the lookout for Tide Pods coupons! Great product. Thanks for the sample.
Tide is a great product. I do laundry daily, and use liquid Tide with Bleach Alternative. Would love to sample the Tide Pods. I have tried unsuccessfully several times to get a Free Sample. I don't know what I am doing wrong. I have used "pods" in my dishwasher and find them very convienent and do not leave a soapy mess.
This little pod is a great idea but i do not think for our family it is strong enough. With the Tide powder I can have grass and red clay stain gone with one wash.. this pod does not do the trick.
I love the pods, but cannot use due to the strong scent. It smells up my whole house...
I think the Ocean Mist Tide Pods smell a lot like the discontinued Tide w/Dawn Whitewater Clean scent. The Pods did a superb job in our front-loader on every load we tried them on (including my husband's ultra dirty work uniforms).
The concept is good, but there is nothing to advertise the proper quantity for a load. It only says one is good for most loads. I used one on a large load of blue clothing and now have an odd blue tint on the front of my dryer. The clothing doesn't appear to be faded in any way, but the pod does not dissolve as quickly as implied by the advertisements. It isn't a bad product, but it would help to have a better idea of potency/sizes treated to go with the items, and perhaps smaller podlings for any testing before people use it. Like I said, I don't see any trouble with my clothing, but not everyone will be okay with a dyed dryer.
The Pods are a great idea: convenient, no mess, no measuring. From my experience, I feel they work best in a large load of laundry. We have a water filtering system in our home, so it doesn't take much detergent to wash laundry. If too much is used (or the wrong type) then it takes extra rinsings to get the suds rinsed out. I used the sample Pod in a very large load, and it was still too sudsy. We also have a front load washer which doesn't use much water. So between the treated water - and the little water used - I had too much suds. Wish there were a variety of sizes of pods for different size loads and conditions. Cleans VERY WELL though. That part is a 5 star.
i was so excited to recieve a sample so i couldn't wait to use it. I washed my first load of laundry and my clothes smelled so fresh after they washed then i threw them in the dryer and when i took them out they still smelled great. Now i am am not the best at getting my laundry folded so when i did get around to it my laundry still smelt like the tide pod !!!!!! I loved them so much i went and purchased my own !!!!! I love that they have stain remover in them too keeps me from having to buy that separately !!!!!! MY family loves tide pods thanks for making such a great smelling and working product i will never switch back lol even to tide with bleach which is what i used before the tide pods :)
I have the messiest 7 year old, I believe, in the world! We recently moved in a new house with a new school that required uniforms. I wanted to make sure that my kids looked their best so I went to the mall and spent a little over three hundred dollars on thier clothes. The very first day my daughter comes home with a huge ketchup stain on her shirt that had been there since 10:30 that morning! I thought well there goes that shirt down the drain! Recently my friend had talked me into buying the new Pods, and crossing my fingers I threw it in and hoped for the best. To my surprise when the load was finished the stain was completely gone! I will not go back to other brands because even though they are cheaper they do not do as well and I usually end up getting rid of clothes because they look dull and old. Thank you so much Tide you saved the day!
I tried the new pod I received in the mail and loved it. I wanted to buy some more but don't want to spend that kind of money on them. I'd rather buy the detergent and get more for my money. It's too much for the amount of laundry I do. I do my husbands work clothes and pods work well. Please make them cheaper or give more than dollar off coupons !
The Tide pods work fine but I would not recommend because I don't think they are worth the price. I do really like the Tide washing powder but I don't like the pods as well eventhough the concept is good. I just wish the smell and quality of the original was there.
Used my sample and liked it. Clothes smell great, it definitely brought out the color in the clothes. I didn't think something so small would do so much.
the plastic wrap does not completely dissolve! It sticks to the clothes and then hardens when the clothes are dry. and not just in the dryer. many of my clothing is hung wet and the same thing happen.
When used in cold water they leave spots on clothes
I used the free sample of the Tide Pod in my laundry and i loved it. The Pod was easy to use and gave my clothing some TLC! I enjoyed the ease of use of the product and it's 3 in 1 action. I look forward to using this product again soon.
I am a 3rd generation TIDE user & I will continue to use it. However, the new pods did not live up to the hype, as advertised on TV. I still had to add (TIDE) detergent to the wash; the pods alone didn't produce enough suds so I was not confident that my clothes, etc. were really getting clean.
This is excellent detergent. My clothes always come out clean and fresh smelling. However, I mainly do medium and small loads, wish these pods came sized for medium and small loads.
Quick & easy. Wish they had bigger pods for larger loads.
I greatly enjoyed using the Tide Pods...did an awesome job. They worked great and were very convenient to use.
i used my sample of Tide Pods and I absolutely love it. it smells so nice and my clothes came out bright and super clean. can't wait to buy some more of this great product.
I have been bouncing between detergents ever since I got a new HE washer a few months back - NO MORE! Tide Pods are easy, efficient, no measure, no mess way of doing my laundy. The fragrance is very nice and the clear plastic packaging can be use for many kids projects. Thank you!
I recently purchased Tide Pods to do some laundry during a business trip. I had never used or purchased Tide before due to the cost of the product. After washing 2 loads of clothes with Tide Pods and subsequently wearing the clothes afterwards, I was impressed with how good they smelled. The scent stayed on the clothes practically the entire day. I don't know why, but I really liked that! Therefore, the scent of this detergent and the convenience of the "pod" alone will encourage me to purchase this product again. Way to go, P & G. I think you've just earned a new customer.
I will buy tide pods from now on. I like knowing that the 57 load size will actually clean 57 loads of laundry. I get the 96 load size of another major brand and probably wash only 20-25 loads. My clothes don't feel or smell clean unless I use the maximum amount. Tide pods are different. The entire load smelled wonderful and was clean and soft with only 1 pod. Please note: they do NOT smell good in the container;)
Worked great for about 2 weeks until my drain got clogged. Costly service to get it fixed. Will not use again. Going back to Gain liquid.
I really liked the fragrances and softness of the clothes after using the Tide pod. Best of all and of great surprise my son offered to start doing the laundry if I buy the pods. He says he liked the way they feel and they are not as messy. Also, it takes up a lot less space in the laundry room.
I washed a sock using my regular brand of detergent and one using the new pod. The sock washed with the Tide Pod was brighter. My jeans even appeared softer and brighter.
Tide Pod was no better or worse than what I use now.
I think this is a perfect product for extremely dirty work clothes. Left them clean and with a pleasant smell. I will definitely buy these Tide Pods and recommend them to other people.
I was a little hesitant to try at first but I tried the New Tide Pods and I won't buy liquid anymore. My laundry smells fresh and clean and I'm very happy with the results!!!
I have tried other so-called economical brands but they don't leave clothes as fresh and clean as Tide.
We had about 5 Pod Samples to try. They made our laundry smell amazing! The clothes came out clean. BUT, when compared with our ALL Free Detergent, the PODS were MORE expensive per load than what we use now. In this economy, we'll stick with what works and pay a fair price than an outrageous price. ALL is $15 at Sam's for 146 loads but in a front loader it should last an entire year the washing machine company told us. The Tide PODS are about $22 for 90 loads. That's almost double a year for Tide instead of $15 a year with ALL Free.
I am for ever usinf too much detergent when I wash my clothes and this pod makes it so easy to use. i am a single man and washing clothes is not one of the things I enjoy in life, I know iy has to be done.
I live in a condo with a community laundry and have to walk to it. This makes my load a lot lighter. But most of all Tides pods cleans and brightens all of my wash. After one 66 wash load container I will always use these. The best product I have ever used.
I used the free sample of the Tide Pods. I really liked the convenience of the pods. I just started the washing machine and tossed in the pod. No more measuring and pouring out liquid detergent. Thanks for a terrific product!!
I received this sample yesterday. I wanted to use it as soon and I returned home and found my laundry over-flowing...(I have 6 members in my family). I sorted the load, started the washer and dropped in the pod. Wow!! My clothes came out clean and that tiny little pod made my whole load of clothes smell great right out of the dryer...-I didn't even use a separate fabric softener!! I love it and will definitely use again!!! ;)
I bought a small package of the pods to try them out. I LOVE them, no more measuring or bulky bottle in my laundry room. I hope they stick around it makes laundry time so much easier. I know I am getting my moneys worth out of each container. No more guessing in measured amount. Great Job Tide!
This little pillow of power is absolutely amazing! My family did a wash comparison with whites, the feel, smell and look after using one POD on half the load without using bleach was amazing. You have a POD user here for life!
The thing that really got to me was the great smell of the laundry when I opened the door. All of the clothes were very soft and well cleaned.
I only had a single pod to try, so the results are negligible. I usually do a very thorough job of laundry. I thought it was easy and thought the results were equally as good as with other Tide products. I will buy them instead of my usual Tide detergent the next time I need laundry soap and get a better handle on the overall product.
I received the free sample and used it with a load of my boys' clothes. I was VERY pleased with the results! They came out smelling better than any detergent I have used recently. Tide is not one of my first choices to purchase simply because of the price. However, after this free sample, I actually went out and bought a large container of these pods. My sons are old enough that they do help out with laundry as well and the oldest one thought it was great to be able to just drop a pod in. Neat concept and very pleased with the product!
I have used tide in the past, but no longer use it. When I saw a commercial for the tide pods I thought it was a genius idea! No mess, easy drop in, etc. However, the same problem happened as in the past. Once in a while, when I do laundry, I forget about it and end up taking it out of the machine the next day. Whenever I use tide, the laundry stinks of a moldy like smell. Other detergents do not do that. I'm not sure why it is so, however it is. I thought that maybe the tide pods were different---they were not. Unfortunately I will not be using tide anymore. Thank you, though, for the sample. I appreciate it very much!
So happy to have a exciting way to do laundry and with Tide know its clean! I will buy in the future as my 72 pods should last a bit ;)
I have to say I was skeptical at first. I work in the automotive field and get my clothes super dirty. I put one tide pod in my front load machine and all the grease and oil on my work clothes vanished. Tide is the only detergent that I have been using for over a year now and I am very happy with the results on the tide pods. I will be purchasing much more of tide pods as the results speak for themselves.
I can't say enough about this new product. It is so simple to use and the results are superb. My laundered items smelled so good and came out clean. I could use it in my HE front loading machine by just tossing it in with the dirty clothes and was so neat. In other words, no drips from a bottle. I can't wait to use up my liquid detergent so i can switch to the Tide Pods! Thank you Tide for being my favorite and economical detergent of choice. You did it again.
I have always loved using Tide and now with the pods their is no measuring. Just throw a pod in the wash and let Tide do the rest. Thanks Tide
I tried the pod with a load of whites and they came out fine. It's the packaging, the pod idea, that seems to be the new gimmick. Saves time? A few seconds. But my he washing machine is set up for liquid detergent and liquid bleach and liquid softener, and I really feel the machine works best when used the way it was designed to work. I throw in a little pod and I feel like I'm not doing enough or using my machine the way it was made to work.
Tide pods are meet all your laundry needs in one easy to use packet. The smell is awesome too!
Loved that you toss 1 thing in the wash machine, and you are done! - no messy measuring, and wondering if you have enough, or too much. Finally, something that makes my life easier...THANKS TIDE!
The new tide pods detergent was very easy to use and did a good job cleaning the whites.
I have always taken great pride in the way I do laundry for not only myself, but for my family as well. I have tried many other brands and have always asked myself why? I believe in this product 100% and will NOT ever use another. The new Tide Pods are a hit in my home and I know I have done my husband proud when he comes home from working a dirty construction job and mentions that some of his fellow crew members have said to him " You always smell fresh and clean" that is what its all about. Thank You Tide for making such an awesome product!!!
It was very handy to just put the pod in the machine and not have to measure a powder or liquid. I felt that it cleaned and brightened the clothing very well.
these are so easy to use i love those pods cause i cant measure good i never get the right amount of loads they say. with the pods i cant go wrong .I get my money worth//
Thanks so much for the free sample. It makes it so you can try it before you make the commitment of buying alot of a product in case you don't care for it. Pod detergent made laundry easy. I liked that it was measured out for the load of clothes.
As a college student I want my laundry to be quick, easy and clean. With the tide pods, laundry has never been easier. What I especially loved was the scent. I've used tide before but it has never smelled better. I pulled my clothes out and the smell took me back to my mom for a few moments. I also have very sensitive skin, but tide pods didn't make me itch at all. I'd recommend this to a friend AND my mom. I love tide pods.
It would not be an overstatement to say that I am absolutely thrilled with PODS. I have an HE washer and they work perfectly. I love not having to measure the liquid, and the brightness of the clean laundry is nothing less than amazing.
I am a convert! This product is AMAZING. I do many, MANY loads of laundry, and quite frankly, I HATE it. But the ease and convenience of these pods just make it that much easier...bravo! You guys are geniuses.
I tried the pods and was not that impressed. I felt like using the products separately worked better for my laundry needs. I only use Tide and I will continue but I won't use the pods again.
We have an HE top load washer....I followed the directions EXACTLY as presented on the package. The load was washed in WARM water, and a Polo shirt and underwear had hardened packet remains on our clothes. We noticed the goo on our clothes after they had gone through the dryer and hope that we can remove the spots. Hard to believe that we paid $22 at SamsClub for a 90 load package to get these results!
I love that I can just pop one in the waser. No measuring. No spilling! No turning the container upside down to get the last of it. I don't like not knowing when to use two. I used two on a big load of towels and did a second rinse, but it didn't all come out. It didn't totally melt in the cold water, so I'll still use liquid for that. It is so easy, though! Now I want Downy pods.
i have fallen in love with the tide pods. I just wish i would find coupons for this product. then i would buy this product more often.
I purchased this product because I liked the idea, but I wish I would have read reviews before I did. I used warm water to wash a medium-sized load of light-colored fabrics. Most of the items came out of the wash with MULTIPLE blue stains all over them. It was like a crayon had a party in there. Obviously, I'm not the only one to experience this problem. I've been a fairly loyal Tide purchaser, but I won't be buying this product again.
The new Tide Pods are amazing. No measuring, no mess, no detergent dust, no handwashing afterwards - just pop a pod in the detergent cup. The clothes came out clean and smelling great. I will definitely buy Tide Pods again.
Loved the smell and it got all the machine oil out of all but 1 pair of my boyfriend's work jeans! Very Handy!
I was very intrigued when Tide came out with there detergent in these pod cases. The problem that I have had is that I have a couple of loads of clothes where I have found the packing attached to an article of clothing. I found a good shirt with the sleeve and the front stuck together with a block the size of the pod container. I had to pull the stuck pieces apart and then scrub off the remainder of the packaging and soak the rest off. It would not come off with repeat washings. I found the same thing with some sheets and on a pair of jeans. All in all this was with five different loads of clothing. I really like the product for its cleaning ability but the packaging really needs some work before I buy this again.
Simply put, Tide Pods helps me remain lazy even when I am doing laundry. It is less messy and easier than anything else I have done and it works fine in my HE washer. Makes being a single dad much easier! Thanks!
I rarely go out for anything, so I was nervous about doing my laundry outside our home. I paced several Tide pods in a zip lock and ended up sharing them with everyone. It got you some new customers and calmed my nerves. It really is an excellent product.
Easy, fuss-free laundry days. Pop in 1 pod and turn machine on.
I really love the new Tide PODS.It worked great to remove the grease and grime from my work clothes. The only draw back I have found is if the "pod" doesnt dissolve totally it will harden on your clothes in the dryer. Has anyone found a way to remove this? It ruined one of my work shirts,, But I continue to use the pods.
The pods are so practical and easy to use! Get laundry done fast by simply throwing one of these in!
I received a free sample of the Spring Meadow Tide pod and I was really excited to try it because it just seemed so easy and (even made laundry fun to do) the reviews I had read were pretty good. I was worried if it would work, but it did dissolve in warm/cold water in a front loader and the casing did dissolve. I'm not sure if the clothes came out cleaner or brighter, but it seems to have done the job. I am actually totally clueless on how to do laundry with all the measuring and stuff, so for a newbie like me it was simple and easy. The scent is okay, I am curious to see what the other scents are like. But it is indeed a great product.
I really love Tide Pods, they get my clothes clean and have a great smell!!
Not only does this product smell good and clean clothes well, it's easy for kids to use. My son is 13 and needs to start learning to do laundry. These will make it so very easy. I won't have to worry about him using too much soap in my HE washer. Thank you Tide! Your the best
The POD is fantastic. My work clothes very dazzling.
Love these "pods". Over the years I;ve tried all detergents and this one surpasses all of them. I am a Tide user and fine that the pods make my wash day so much easier. NO MORE GETTING UP TO PUT OTHER PRODUCTS IN THE WASH TO GET BETTER RESULTS. AT 70 YRS OLD THIS IS A BIG PLUS.Thanks Tide
I debated about buying these and should have known better than to buy the big container. When I opened the drawer to put my next pod in, there was all this blue and orange goop with the outside casing left behind. Hope they go back to the drawing board at PnG on this one!
I was buying two 64 load bottles of liquid tide a month and usually had to go for a third... I saw the new pods and thought OK I will try it ... wow just wow not only did one container of 57 last me one month but my clothes are brighter and cleaner I love them as long as they stay reasonably priced they will be all I purchase for now on... these are a must try product you will be hooked they are so easy to use and do such a great job!
50% of my laundry comes out clean but the other half has purple stains and plastic stuck on items. I don't do anything different and the pods are from the same bag. The last thing I need is to rewash and inspect cloths coming out of the machine.
Let me begin by saying I was a loyal Gain Girl until my clothes weren't getting as clean as in the past. So, I decided to do something new. I purchased the small pack of Tide Pods @ Target for 4.99 and WOW my whites were gleaming and fresh! I was so impressed with this product that I purchased a 4.99 pack for my Mom and she loves it. I am a Tide Pods Girl now and I am on my way to Cosco to buy my Pods in bulk...LUV IT.
I used this product on a full or large load of laundry, which is typical for my household. This load included scrubs, firefighter uniforms, jeans, t-shirts, and gym clothes. As soon as I started the load, I could smell the detergent- I found that nice, and liked the clean scent. The clothes smelled great when I wore them today, and I enjoy the simplicity of dropping the pod in without measuring, and there was no mess! Great product!
I would like it to be a little more sudsy with more aroma
Tide is the only detergent I can use due to several in this household breaking out from other brands. More than once I have had to clean up a mess my husband and boys have made with the liquid.
There are two things I didn't like about Tide Pods: (1) No visible suds, and (2) the clothes did not have that clean smell I'm used to with my current detergent. I'll stick with what I'm using.
I just used my free sample to wash my bed's sheets, and I love it! I normally would just buy Tide Coldwater liquid detergent which has been great, but the Tide Pods are so convenient and combine detergent along with stain remover and brightener, which I would never usually go to the trouble of adding on my own. My sheets came out smelling fantastic and very clean! I love not having to measure out the detergent. I could never see the lines on the inside of the up anyway. This could not be easier to get just right every time! Will definitely be buying Tide Pods from now on!
I like the concept of the tide pods. they are quick and easy to use. They left my clothes very clean and smelling great!
I tried the Tide Pods for the first time today, I have to admit the clothes came out clean, fresh, and soft, but there were remnants of the plastic still in my colored clothes. I thought this was suppose to dissolve?
Love the Tide Pods - used my free sample today - no messy liquids to pour.
I bought Tide Pods on a whim and used it on my towels as a test and the result was great with my towels smelling great! I would recommend this product it just simply works.
Recently my boyfriend and I purchased tide pods, ocean mist. It is by far one of the best purchases I made. I've only used tide once or twice before, and we just decided after purchasing Tide Pods that from now on that's what we are purchasing. The smell is great, our clothes look and feel cleaner. It was a great purchase. I feel you get what you pay for in Tide. I love Tide and I won't go back to the other laundry detergents. Thank you Tide!!!
I was so excited to find PODS because my children always put too much or not enough detergent in with a load of clothes. With Tide PODS I don't have to worry about the washing machine bubbling over ever again! My only complaint is that sometimes the POD's clear pouch doesn't dissolve completely in cold water and leaves a sticky residue on the piece of clothing that the POD dissolved over. I have now started letting the POD dissolve completely in the wash before adding my clothes. I don't have this problem when I use warm or hot water though. Thanks for a great product... washing will never be the same again!
I love the new way tide is packaged and made into a pod. It is a great idea and nice and easy to deal with. I do about 3-5 loads of laundry a day and have rheumatoid arthritis so the way tide is now used is great for people like me. There are a couple of reasons I can not say it is "EXCELLENT". First, I've noticed it does not melt down completely in "cold" water loads, I've notice a build up of soap in the front of my front load washing machine. Second, it doesn't get my clothes as clean and bright as it does when I measure the amount of Tide per load, and Third, I just don't know if 1 pod cuts it per load. It says on the directions (1 pod cleans most loads) what loads doesn't 1 pod clean exactly? Forth and last...my laundry doesn't smell as good as it does when I use the liquid Tide. Again, I think the idea of a "pod" is totally ingenious but it could use just a few modifications to make it perfect.
I love the Tide Pods they do not take up a lot of space in my laundry closet, they are pre-measured so they are not messy to use like liquid detergent, they have a nice clean smell,they make a lot of suds in the washing machine so you know your clothes are getting really clean and you can use it in hot or cold water. I use one at a time for a full load so I bought the 52 load jug today they will last me a while. SUPER PRODUCT!
i loved how all you have to do is drop it in and it smells great too loved it thank you tide:)
I found that this product is extremely easy to use. No measuring!! Does a great job
I took out a water tank that was put in over 100 year ago i had mud and old water get all over me i did my wash the next day and the new tide took out the mud and the smell
I received 2 samples of the Pod. As it said is was HE compatible I used it when doing a full load. 3/4 the way through the cycle my machine flashed the suds warning. (in my opinion that means there's too much soap for the amount of clothes..right?) After an extra rinse and much to much time, that load was done. Just checked the second load....towels. Same results. It looks like I'll be doing laundry all night. Promise I won't use it again! SORRY!
i used tide pods for the frist time today. well tides pods are it
I have been using Tide for years. Thank you for making my job easier
I was really excited when my Tide Pod sample came. I used it to wash a load of towels. They came out clean, fluffy, and smelling great. However, at the end of the night I discovered that the pod casing and most of the blue liquid had become clumped and stuck in the liner of my Front Load Washer...Yuck! So disappointing...I was really looking forward to using these, but I do 3-4 loads of wash a day and all that added clean up is not wanted. Recommend to anyone with a Top load washer.
I just used the tide pod and love it! It's quick and easy, plus it smells good. I could actually smell the scent while it was washing! My laundry turned out great. No discoloration at all. I washed tablecloths with it and they came out clean. No stains! Thanks Tide for the sample! I will be buying this!
I was impressed with the job done on the clothes. I used it for a load of work clothes (farm and mechanics dirt) and was surprised at how good a job it did. I am impressed!
Very easy, no mess and my clothes came out smelling great. I will use this product again.
Given a free sample, I decided to try ity out on a coffee stained linen tablecloth and my usual collar stained shirts. Simply put - the stains are gone, even using only a cool water temperature and the colors are vibrant. The pod is the way to go!
First let me say that I have always been a loyal Tide customer. Nothing cleans my family's laundry better. It's the best!! And now that I have nothing to measure, it's even better!! I just throw in a Pod and Poof! I'm done!! Love it!! Thank you for making the task of laundry easier!!
I love this product because it does not cause a mess in the laundry room. I normally buy the largest size of liquid tide and it tends to drip even when I throw the lid in the washer. I only wish coupons were offered on this product. Maybe when it isn't so new they will be offered.
I swear on my life that tide is the best stain fighter! I have used stain removers before and i have received no results. But with tide, i can use just the laundry detergent and my clothes become cleaner and brighter! And to top it off, they give my clothes a great smell that last until i need to wash them again. Tide is my number one choice if you have children as well!
It doesn't get any easier than this! Pop in, load, start and forget.....until it's done and when you take it out you will smile! Smells good, does work good!!
We just bought the new tide pods. We used one last night on a load of white clothes. A little bleach was added to the load(which we've done for years). When we looked at the load, some of my husbands white socks turned yellow along with some of my lacy lingerie. What was strange is that most of the clothes came out perfectly fine. I'm scared to use these pods again until I find out what might of happened.
Tide pods are convenient however I don't think they are worth the price that you would pay for them. Clothes did not come out any brighter nor did I notice any difference in using Pods vs. detergent and stain fighter alone.
Just pop and go makes laundry one of the easiest chores you can do. I love not having to measure detergent and getting the same great results as tide liquid detergent. The pods are an amazing design. Tide Pods are officially my favorite product for my laundry.
The pods stick together so you waste a little. Over time it can be a big waste if you have to use more than one. My clothes seem to be cleaner they smell nice,I like the feel when done.This product is not cheap so you can't afford the waste.
I haven't used tide in a few years so was very excited to "give it a go" again when I received my free PODS sample. Much to my disappointment, my clothes came out stained blue, the wrapper never dissolved, and the clothes did not smell fresh at all. I am very disappointed in the product.
I love the convenience of the pod design... just throw it in and go!
I wouldn't mind using tide all the time but it cost to much and I just can't afford it. I like tide but like I said it just cost way to much
Just got mine and I decided to try it on blankets so they could be stored and wow they smelled so fresh Thank You Tide
This was so easy. But dont tell my wife or she will make me do laundry more often.
I love the new pods. It makes laundry time faster, less messy and just easy. I got 7 in my household and the washer is always running. I loved how quick and easy it was to just throw the pod in and not worry about the measuring or spilling of the liquid. I thought the clothes came out very clean and smelling great.
I have a Love/Hate relationship with laundry. I love clean clothes, but my family is very hard on clothing. Lots of stains to remove. This product really did take out the stains and brighten the clothes--AND our clothes smelled awesome. Thank you, Tide.
It's nice to just reach in a bag, take out a little pod, throw it in, and not have to deal with taking the cap off and pouring, and spraying of a stain remover. It's quick and easy, and leaves my clothes smelling sooooo good.
Second try and my sheets are stained purple...and my pillow case has a plastic substance on it....hopefully after they are washed again it will come out...not a happy camper
THESE ARE SO EASY TO USE! LOVED THE RESULTS! THANKS TIDE!
I think the tide pods are an excellent! They leave the clothes smelling great and all you have to do is just throw it in and let the washer do the work!!! Excellent Product!!!
I love this new technology. I have a HE washer and was skeptical about using PODS, but to my relief - it works great. However, being a couponer, it would be nice to have coupons of this product, and not all just for detergent.
I like the no mess no drips and very simple easy use of the pods...
LOVE the convenience and scent that lasts for days!
Product works well. I like that I can use it in both warm & cold water. Clothes come out clean although I really tested it with a big load of towels & jeans. Smell isn't too strong but makes clothes smell fresh.
I thourally enjoyed using the tide pods. The 3 in on cleaner is unique. I am satisified.
I used the Pod on our sheets that our dogs got mud and grime all over. (They know they aren't allowed on the bed.) I was VERY surprised to see the Pod taking out all of the stains I typically have to use a pre-treatment or specific product for. Great product!
I received my sample of a Tide pod and used it today; it was incredibly convenient, did a thorough job, and I'm very pleased. However, I know that Tide is one of the more expensive detergents, if not the most expensive, and I'm sure these pods are no different. I use Tide when I have a coupon AND it's on sale, otherwise I use the next best brand. Gotta stretch the budget!
I loved the idea that all you have to do is pop and go! I had a few articles of clothing that had some dirt, grass and blood stains from working out in the gardens. Figured this would be the ultimate test! I pulled out the clothing with stains on them and they were like new after sitting for a week! Would definitely recommend to friends!
We just bought a Whirlpool Duet washer and dryer. We like to use the delay wash setting, but Whirlpool advised against using liquid detergent with the delay cycle. We tried Tide pods for this purpose and got excellent results. I found them on sale at Costco at a very good price. Great results, good price and convenience, what more can I ask for?
Tide pods did an excellent job of cleaning and removing stains from my daughter's school uniforms. With my daughter having to wear the same uniforms every week, they really take a beating...but Tide pods have helped to bring them back to life.
I tried new Tide Pods in a load of laundry yesterday. I was genuinely impressed by the result. I didn't think it was enough detergent to wash a load of laundry but I was mistaken, the clothes came out cleaner than they ever did with my current laundry detergent and smelling fresh as a spring morning. We don't have a High Efficiency machine but it worked very well despite that fact. I would, indeed, use these again. Thank you, Tide, for raising the bar in the laundry industry yet again!
I received a sample of the Tide Pod in the mail and promptly used it on the most troublesome load of laundry I have - towels. I figured that this would give me good gauge because if it can clean up my towels and make them feel clean, it will work on anything. I was sadly disappointed. The towels felt dirty when I went to fold them, and didn't smell fresh or clean. I ended up having to wash them again because I wasn't satisfied with their condition. I would not buy these Pods on my own. I would be open to trying them again, but not at my own expense. Not when I can use something cheaper that I know gets the job done.
I really like the fact there's no mesuring and no mess you just throw the pod in and forget about it. Our clothe's came out so clean,I will be telling our friends and family about pods. Thank you for comeing out with something so nice and easy the eldery people can even use them.
It was so much nicer to just throw the Pod in my washing machine without having to pour in detergent and softner. Very quick and convenient, plus my clothes smell really nice!
Pop one in your load and your clothes will be FRESH! Pods are way easier than measuring in the cover and is simple and easy!
I love this product! Super super simple to use! :)
I grew up in a house where my mother was an huge fan of Tide. When I was first on my own, I couldn't afford Tide, but a few years later when I could, I was disappointed that it didn't perform as well the less expensive all natural brands I was using with a bit of Clorox or Clorox 2 added to the detergent. I currently used an all natural brand made for HE washers available at Sam's Club and a side by side comparison to my whites makes the Tide look (with or without Clorox) look dingy compared to the Sam's Club brand. The Sam's Club brand uses less detergent per load and lasts our family of SIX over a year for 12 dollars per 2 gallon bottle. (It also has a scent that last weeks while being stored in a drawer or linen closet.
Love it and will definitely buy more in the future! Its so convenient and smells wonderful!
Used Pods for the first time...Used to clean towels which were little oily Amazing results, clean with great fragrance... But only thing it could not clean was yellow stains of turmeric...
The pod sample was simple to use, and I like simplicity. I think that the biggest setback to all Tide products is price. Tide outprices themself most of the time. If I can afford Tide, I am happy with the results every time. Tide has yet to let me down.
This was my first time using Tide Pods. The are the best thing ever. I loved the fresh clean scent.
I love the new Tide pods..it cleans my clothes good and my clothes smell great.:) Thank you Tide.:) Keep up the good work.:)
I use these pod type soaps exclusively in the dishwasher and have used other detergent brands' pods/gel packs in laundry. .I'm very familiar with the need to keep these pods dry. I purchased Tide pods last Tuesday. I cut open the bag above the zip-lock closure and made sure the bag was still closed tightly and put on shelf in laundry room. Today, the pods were a globby mess, Plastic pouches all stuck together,... blue and white liquids had leaked but the orange liquid was still encased in all pods... Very expensive, mess. If they are this sensitive to dampness found in a laundry room...how will they hold up when the humidity of summer hits my area? I know I can't let any of the teenagers use these...they will never be cautious enough with the need to keep hands dry when touching the packs....This is not an issue with the other gel packs I use....very disappointed.
I recently found the P&G website and found Tide Pods, It has everything you could ever want in a Detergent all in one little premeasured Pod, That saves on waste of detergent and leaves my families clothing looking and smelling heavenly, and the price is amazing too, so I would like to say Thank You again Tide, for coming up with an amazingly economical and pleasing detergent product. KUDOS TIDE!!!!!
It was a coincidence that I got my sample in the mail on laundry day. But as soon as I got it, I put in the next load and voila! It was so much easier than having to measure out the soap, make sure I had stain remover on all the clothes and to put the brightener in as well. When the load was done, the clothes smelled wonderful, came out clean and it was so easy to do! Cut my time in doing one load of laundry almost in half.
A friend washed some of my clothes in one of the pods, and they came out smelling like some strong perfume. It looked so easy when he threw in the pod (and I didn't complain to him about the smell), but why don't you make this in a fragrance-free version? I'd buy it.
The Tide pods cleaned my clothes very well, but then most laundry detergents do. I do a lot of small loads because there are only 2 of us and I don't like to mix lights and darks or thin materials with heavy materials. I felt that if I used the pods all the time I would be wasting a lot of soap because of the small loads I do. As for recommending this product to a friend, I would like to have said, "maybe" or "some friends". It depends on the person and their circumstances. Thank you for the sample.
I love Tide pods they are convenient and easy for a busy mom like me! Washes beautifully in hot or cold water and I love the price!
I loved it and would appreciate it if you sent me more coupons at this time I currently use HE tide with febreeze ,so a switch would not be a problem.The brand name works ,only wish it was a little cheaper.But it is a product I will purchase when I am finished using what I got in stock.Thanks and keep up the great work.
Loved how simple it is to use Tide Pods. Just toss it in with the clothes and walk,away. No mess and hassle of measuring.
I received my Tide Pod sample in the mail and in order to put it to the true test I waited for one perfectly full load of dark clothes. I used cold water and no other additional products. When the cycles were complete, clothes came out clean and had a fresh scent that carried through even the dryer. I also like the fact it is per-measured which will stop my hubby from using too much soap. Overall loved it!
the pods are great no mess tiny and tide is one of the best detergents ever
My daughter and I both received samples of Tide Pods. We both used them and loved them! She is a very busy mom of three (including a newborn), and it seems like she is sometimes buried in laundry ;-) I am retired, but with myself, my hubby, and our two dogs, we have quite a bit of laundry as well. My daughter and I took a trip to Sam's Club yesterday, and we were both so excited to see the Tide Pods, 90 count, for approx. $21! Needless to say, we both got them! My daughter loves how clean and fresh her laundry comes out, and now she doesn't have to worry about her nine year old daughter putting too much detergent in the washer when she helps with laundry. Tide Pods are so much easier and economical to use. No wasteful over-using of liquid detergent, and no lifting of heavy bottles (I am handicapped). We get the awesome Tide clean and the Tide freshness with just one pod! Thank you, TIDE!!!
I wasn't really impressed with the product. I didn't find that it got my clothing any cleaner than the less expensive detergent that I buy. I used to buy Tide but then I realized that I was really paying for the name and not necessarily for a better product. I may consider using Tide again in the future when I actually have the money to spend on it.
My clothes looked very clean, passed my sniff test
I like the ease of use and the lack of mess that comes from other liquid and powder detergents. You just put it in the washer and you are ready to load.
I use the pods in a HE washer but every once in a while I have a pod wrapper stuck on my clothes.. infact it just about a few min ago, I threw a load of darks in and when the washer was down I pulled everything out and on my new black shirt the remains of the pod was still stuck on it... so I took it to the sink and rinsed it with hot water and did some rubbing and it came out but to be on the safe side I decided to wash with the next load... is anyone else having this problem???????
I received a sample of Tide Pods in the mail. I love the ease in use. I usually have to measure the detergent and stain remover separately,but the pods were so convenient. I have a family of eight,so the pods made it easy and simple to wash. Thank you so much for the sample.
I received my free sample of the new Tide Pods Detergent and I must say that it was amazing. I particularly love the convenience and the the lingering fragrance (spring meadow) even after coming out of the dryer. I definitely will be using this new product in the future.
I liked it.....dont have to worry about adding stain stuff...all in 1
I wish there was a Febreeze option in the new Pods. I work in a kitchen and have tough odors that don't quite come out with one pod for my work clothes.
I love the convenience and performance of Tide Pods ! They are easy to store , easy to use and make my clothes clean and wonderful smelling. I no longer have the residue that collects in the liquid detergent dispenser in my washer and I don't have to measure the messy liquid detergent. It is all contained in the pre-measured Pod. Bravo !!
I loved using the pod. It made it fast and easy. I did not notice any difference from using separate fabric softener and tide. Thanks for the free sample!
I really liked the smell of my clothes after this. I didn't do a noticeably better job than my other detergent. I did like that I didn't have to deal with the mess of measuring out my detergent. I will buy these if they are at the right price. I am not going to pay a ton more for this.
I tried my sample and was pleased with the results. It is hard to tell but I really thought that the load of light colored clothing looked brighter and cleaner. I tend to chose detergent by cost and wonder how much more these pods going to cost? A coupon to be able to buy a package of the product to try over a number of washing loads would have been nice. The cost will determine whether I purchase these.
The pod certainly made starting a load of laundry easy and quick. Not sure if it did any extra stain removal. Tried it on my sons white baseball pants with grass stains on the knees. A large part of the stains were removed but some remained. I will have to try them again before I decide if I will trade over to using them exclusively.
Ingenious idea and perfectly priced! I got a sample in the mail and figured they would be kinda pricey but to my surprise they are very affordable!! Bought a pack the other day and love the fact they are in bag that I can get one out at a time and not have to pull a heavy bottle in and out of my bottom drawer of washer! I give the Pod a big thumbs up!! Thanks TIDE :)
Pods are a great new product! Easy to use, no mess like regular detergent bottles. Toss in the pod, and clothes come out fresh and bright!
Easy to use - No mess - You know when you're going to run out. Great for Busy Moms!
I bought the Spring Meadow 72 pack of Tide Pods, and I love them! No mess, no measuring, and goes great with Downy. I use the Tide Pods, and the Downy Double Upgrade, and it is amazing. I have already reccomended Tide Pods to family, and friends. I love them, and am going to continue using them. Great product!
As I was grocery shopping yesterday I was in the laundry isle and needed to get some detergent. The price has really gone up!! I wanted to try these Tide Pods because I have a good problem with over using liquid. I figured these pods would stop that problem and they have! They made my clothes smell amazing! I will from now on be using these new Tide Pods!!!!!!!
Pods is convenient to use. However I wasn't particularly happy with the fragrance. It is extremely mild and not a very great smell. I prefer to stick to my Tide Sport only for the fragrance and freshness I feel after doing my laundry. If they bring a similar fragrance to pods i will happily make a switch.
i tried tide pod for the first time and it got our clothes clean and smelled so clean and fresh.it even took out a couple small stains i couldnt get out before..i would highly recommened tide pods to all laundry users
I did like the convenience and did purchase a large container of the pods at the grocery store. Then, I noticed it was also on the shelves at Sam's!
It was nice to just throw in a pod and not have to carry a jug down the stairs and outside. It did the job of cleaning the clothes.
I first tried this product as a sample and absolutely love it. I love having three products in one and the price is good. I love being able to do laundry efficiently.
I haven't used Tide in awhile and usually buy "free" detergent when I do use it, but I wanted to give these cool Pods a try. I can definitely smell the scent when it is washing, but don't notice much once it is out of the dryer. What I do notice is that my clothes are getting stained with the blue from the Pod!!! Not pleased at all. Would love to know what, if anything I might be doing that is wrong. All of the kids shorts have stains as well as hubby's work shirt. Didn't notice until after everything was out of the dryer, but I am going to try to re-wash (with a different detergent) to save these clothes.
My husband works outdoors and gets very dirty. These Tide Pods are easy to use, but most importantly they get the job done.
I received a tide pod sample in the mail. I was excited to try it as I love the little cascade pouches. I followed the directions on the package, putting the pod in the washing machine drum, then the clothes. After the load was completed, a blue sticky, gooey substance was left trapped under the door seal. A major disappointment. I use a front loading washing machine as described on the package. I will not be purchasing tide pods!
One of the worst parts about laundry detergent is knowing how much or how little to use. Spilling is another problem and having the nasty measuring cup sitting around. Tide Pods eliminates all that.
I bought some tide pods and did a load of laundry, i really really really love using them to do wash! There is no measuring and they clean the clothes so well..... We have hard water and have tried other "cheaper" brands but they just dont clean our clothes as well as tide does..... My only complaint i have with the tide pods is there is no coupons that i can use with them. They are only for the liquid and powdered! I would change 100% to the pods if i could use my coupons....... Other than that, i really LOVE the pods!!! I think its a great product and the BIG bulky plastic containers are such a big space and takes too much room in the trash!!!!
I have been using Gain lately, love the smell, it is a little cheaper than Tide, AND it effectively gets my clothes clean. BUT I bought a small bag of Tide pods at the grocery, curious what it is all about. I love them! Smells great, easy to use, no messy detergent bottle AND I love the packaging! (I'm a sucker for that stuff) I will definitely buy again! I got the ocean mist kind. I do wish I could smell the different scents before buying, I just had to go out on a limb and hope I liked the scent, and I did.
I have a well system that sometimes leaves a slight odor however, when I used the Tide Pod I was amazed how clean and fresh smelling my laundry was!
It made my clothes smell really good from a small pod. I really liked that the most. I was even surprised at how well it cleaned.
New Tide Pods Detergent are so simple to use; Just toss it in, add clothes and go. You get the same great Tide cleaning in a simple pod. Cleaning made simple.
The tide pods work well but this scent stinks. Now, I am afraid to buy more because I don't want to go through that again. I have purchased the tide boost pods for as long as I have known about them so, I would use 1 pod and 1 boost and double rinse to get rid of the smell...thank goodness they are gone. I will continue with the boost pods and liquid tide fragrance free.
I tried the new Tide pods and absolutely love them. They are very convienient to use, no mess from leaky liquid, no measuring, just pop one in and thats it. My clothes came out very clean and smelling nice. And the price is reasonable to. Tide is the only detergent that I use. I recommend it to everyone. Tide keep up the good work bringing us new time saving ideas.
easy to use no measuring required at all! Love it!
I loved the way the clothes came out and made them smell so good ..Just wish I could afford to buy Tide .
Can't fail with the PrODuct (PrODuctS), that's for sure. Especially, for people that hasn't done laundry before, there is no measuring, no mess, no fuss; just turn the washer on, drop in the pod, softener, clothes and then go about your day. Notice how I spelled the word product above? Give me a job and I can offer more marketing ideas. :)
I really like the product. I feel it is one of the best products Tide has but I also feel it is expensive.
I only gave the pods 4 stars, because it gets stuck in the seal of my washer and thus doesn't get my clothes clean. I do like that there isn't any mess of measuring and it's simple, you just put the pod in the washer. But I will not be buying these, they would be a waste of my money, because they don't stay in the barrel of my washer. (I have a front loading one).
My husband works in maintenance and get his jeans very dirty at times. I received the Spring Meadow Tide PODS sample today in the mail and decided to pop it in the washer with several pairs of his dirty work jeans without pretreating as the sample contained a stain remover. Well, I'm here to say that his jeans came out super clean and smelled wonderful! Thanks for making such a wonderful product that not only cleans well, but is a great time saver!
It is so easy to use the Tide pod. Just throw them into the washing machine and that's it! I did find it strange that it doesn't care whether my machine is HE or not though when laundry detergents sold outside all mention whether they are HE compatible or not. I'm not used to the smell (different type of good sweet smell) of the freshly washed clothes but I'm not complaining when it's so effortless to use. Perhaps, offer different fragrance types?
I tried the new Tide Pods Detergent and feel that is the best and smart portion..like my coffe pods.
Omg, I pray these are affordable because they are sooooo convenient, not messy, and smell sooooo good!!! I love how the wash came out!!!
Today was the first time I tried them and I liked that it was quick and easy and that the great smell of the detergent stayed on my clothes even after being dried. I don't think I want to go back to liquid detergent after this. I have also tried the tide boost and I like using those as well.
I didn't know what to expect from the Tide pod, but I am very pleased that the laundry is very clean and smells great!
My husband prefers his clothes to have a nice smell to them when they are laundered. Tide Pod was able to easily clean his construction work clothes and provide a pleasant smelling experience for him.
I love the new Tide Pods. I have received many free samples through purchasing another Tide product and through the free sample in the mail. I think the Tide Pods do a great job at cleaning and whitening my clothes, and on top of that I love the new Spring Meadow scent. I plan to buy a package of Tide pods on my next grocery purchase. Especially because I just used my last one today! Thanks for the new product! You guys are awesome!
I found this new "Pod" laundry detergent to be so easy to use - just pop it in the washer along with the dirty clothes and voila - done! Marvelous product!
I recieved a free sample of tide pods and LOVED it. My clothes were brighter and smelled fresh. Also, I live on the 3rd floor of an apartment so this was SO easy to carry downstairs and not messy like other detergent. Awesome. I will be purchasing this product!
I love how I just pop it in and that is all, if they add softener to it then it would be perfect! I have had trouble with it dissolving all the way and have had clothes come out with remnants of pod stuck on clothes and had to hand wash to get it off, but I love the cleaning of tide!
I need my thing be done correct and easy as pie. I don't like to bother with the small stuff but my cloth are important to me. Look correct and smell good is need. Tide they know me. They know what I want and what I need. Got dang it this is good and don't think go. Now!!
I liked the fact that it dissolved quickly. I also thought it was really cute, all squishy and just small and compact. However it didn't wash any better or worse than my regular detergent. I have also checked the prices of it in the store, and OMG! Way too much money. Sorry but in these hard economic times I really don't see paying THAT much for a name. If you like Tide and you can afford it, you will probably love these. If you're on a tight budget, maybe not so much.
if it was cheaper i would buy it i use grain cause it is cheap so if u make the tide pods cheap i would buy it i like what it did to my colthes
My colors look great and it smells nice. The little pod is very convenient.
Easy use with great results. Another Great Tide product. Thank you!
I was surprised when I used the Pod. I didn't think such a little packet would clean a big load of clothes but it did! I have 2 youngsters & a hubby so I am doing laundry a LOT! The pods help out! No mess, less time :) Love it!
very easy to use. no measuring Just can't use too much soap with this product
Its the very best best laundry powder ever made on gods green earth > I have used tide for over 40 yeaers.
I absolutly love this product. It is so easy for kids to use. Great to send back with my college son also. Love them. Now add fabric softener and we will be set :)
At first, I didn't believe that this small packet could clean any size load and make the color pop. So I threw in one pod and my comforter (which makes an extra large load). Five minutes after the cycle started I opened the lid to see if it was cleaning and I was surprised to see the color of the water. When the load was done, I opened the lid again and was shocked to see how much the color popped. This small packet really does packs a big punch. When I went to the store and saw them, I just couldn't leave them on the shelf. I bought the biggest size quantity, because it worked so well.
I didn't notice anything outstanding with the pod that I haven't already had with other similar products. It did what it said it would.
I received a free sample in the mail and I loved it! Just toss it in and throw in your clothes and your ready to go!. Fast, easy and no messy caps to deal with!
I have front load HE machines did exactly as directions described putting the pod in with the clothes as opposed to putting it in the soap holder/dispenser. The clothes looked dingy and were not soft at all. They had the feel of still being dirty to the texture of the clothing.I had to rewash them using my usual liquid Tide. I love Tide always use Tide as my mother and her mother before her. I was excited to get and try this new way of soap for cleaning my clothes I do not want to buy this I would like to recieve 2 pods to try at once as maybe only one was not enough. Can you send me two pods? If not thats ok I will continue to use the liquid or powder Tide as I have before. Thank you Cindy C.
First of all I was disappointed there wasn't a coupon enclosed. Then I delibereatly saved it for a newly stained fabric. My cat vomited on my cotton blanket, so I thought would be the perfect test. Unfortunately the stain looks worse now : ( Very sad, it was a very nice cotton chenille bedspread.
this is so easy to use...just can't miss no remembering just throw it in forget it great concept ... love it
Convenient product that did a great job at getting some tough soiled clothes very clean. Just threw it in my HE washer and walked away, no measuring, no splashing, no anything! The product has a light scent which I didn't mind at first smell, but after wearing a shirt all day, I decided it was too much for me. I usually buy Tide laundry products but the scent free kind. If Tide introduced a scent free Pod, I would have no hesitation in using because it did a great job!
I was skeptical since I'd read some of the 1 star reviews. However, I still bought the small Spring Meadow pack to try - around $5 at my local Wally World. I've used them a few times. They are WONDERFUL for my delay timer on my washing machine. I can toss a load in at night, set the timer for it to start early in the morning, and voila, a load is ready to put in the dryer first thing in the morning. I've only had one that didn't fully dissolve. They clean about the same as my regular detergent (Tide original scent HE). I gave it only 4 stars because one didn't devolve completely and they don't have the original scent. Perfume fragrances don't work always play well with my family and our allergies. Pros: Quick, Easy, No Measuring Cups Cons: Fragrances (would love an original scent pod)
I have always loved Tide - the first time I saw the add for Tide Pods I knew I had to try them!! I will tell you what - they could not have come at a better time - if you are doing laundry at home or if you are on vacation and have access to a machine there WOW Pods are the way to go!! Not only the wonderful Tide that you know and love but how much easier can a pod be?? Great Job again Tide!!
Removed any/all stains, brightened colors. Love it.
i didnt like the tide pods. it didnt make my clothes smell any different.
I just tried tide for my first time and it happened to be the pods. I can't believe how well it worked. I wish I could have found a harder load of laundry to try it on. It made some of my dingy whites really white even though I normally bleach them and didn't this time. This seems like an all in one product.
I received a sample of Tide Pods and I LOVE IT!! I have always been a tide customer but would switch to a sale detergent to cut costs but since trying Tide Pods, I will never switch again! This product is amazing! My clothes have never smelled so good. I truly love it.
I have a family of six, not counting all the pets. It's been difficult trying to keep our clothes looking new. When I received the sample in the mail I looked at the size and was a little doubtful as to how hard it would work for our family. So, what better way to give it a test than by washing a load of our whites which were beginning to look a little dingy. Oh, WOW!!! It's exactly the product I never knew I needed! I'll be picking some up on my next trip to the store.
I was so excited to receive the sample in the mail. I only use Tide and will never change. The pods are "GREAT"!!!!! So easy to use and no more buying bottles of liquid or bleach. Tide has hit a "home run" with this one! It really takes the work out of wash day. Thanks Tide for coming to my rescue.
I really love the Tide Pods concept. It is very convenient and the pods leave the laundry smelling great! The problem is that the Pods don't always completely dissolve in my HE washer. I have the water level at the highest setting. The issue seems to be really random. I don't over or under fill my washer. Sometimes it dissolves perfectly! Other times there are stains on the clothes (from the stain remover/color booster) and the film from the pod is stuck on an article of clothing. Rewashing takes care of the issue, but that is really inconvenient. I would give Tide Pods 5 stars if they dissolved consistently because I really do love the concept!!
Thanks to Tide Pods we had a no mess vacation. We always take along our detergent usually bottle and usually it makes a mess. With the Tide Pods we just grabbed what we needed and didn't have to be worried about the container opening and spilling on everything.Plus to top it off our clothes came out spot free and beautifully scented.
They are so convenient. Easy to use. Love them. Would recommend to everyone.
bought a bag of Tide Pods and was surprised. They lasted longer then the liquid as they are pre-measured and cleaned just as well as regular tide.
I love the idea of the pods, so was excited to try it. I was so glad to see that P&G was offering samples. Pros: Easy to store No measuring Not messy One step Cons: Very strong smelling out of the washer (Spring Meadow) and the smell really STAYS with the clothes Did not get items clean that regular Tide (liquid, HE, cold water) would. I had to rewash several of my son's shirts that had playground grit. No info about the size of the load that the pod works for. Admittedly, my load was large, but I do have a large capacity washer, and use it! I'll stick with the liquid unless I can get a killer deal on the Pods, AND instructions are clearer for load size.
Love the ease and convenience of these little pods! I will not miss the mess of liquid detergent and the oozy measuring cap. Can't wait until I use up my current supply of liquid and can start using pods full time. Highly recommended!
I should have known that I would fall in love with this product...now it's the only laundry detergent that I want to use. I immediately noticed a change in my clothes when I used the new Tide Pods. They were brighter, cleaner, softer, the stains were gone, and they smelled amazing! I've always been a huge fan of Tide and now there's no measuring or trying to decide how much soap to use. It's easy-peasy to just toss in the pod, toss in my load and go!
I USED THE TIDE POD ON MY HUSBANDS FILTHY CLOTHES. HE WORKS IN A FACTORY MAKING AUTO PARTS, AND HE IS ALWAYS COVERED IN GREASY, GRIMY WORK CLOTHES. I WAS TRULY AMAZED AT HOW CLEAN HIS CLOTHES CAME OUT!! AND THE BEST PART WAS THE FRESH SCENT THEY HAD AFTER BEING WASHED!! I LOVED IT!!!!
I have exclusively used Tide for many years. The pod is amazing. It is economical, convenient. effectively removes stains and smells wonderful. 5 Stars - no doubt.
I have always used and trusted Tide - Never thought it could get better, but it did - The Pods are wonderful - no measuring and fuss - Now if you could add fabric softener you would have it all!!!
I purchase the smaller package of Pods to sample them and the ease of use and the quality it great! The Pods are so easy to use even a husband can use them! :)
Same great freshness in a tiny little pack! love it!
I have always preferred Tide for my laundry. It keeps colors the color they're suppose to be and kicks dirt out. The Pods are so simple to use-toss in , load and start washer. I HEART PODS! It's a bang for the buck.
use Tide regularly, just love tide pods it worked great. will continue to use tide products.
Cleans as you would expect Tide to...easy to use...would definately recommend.
I received my free sample in the mail and was anxious to try it. I was not disappointed. The pod made doing the laundry quick, simple and easy. I would have given it a 5 star rating if it was to come in unscented. I will continue to purchase this product.
THE TIDE PODS ARE PERFECT FOR TRAVEL. THEY SURE ARE HANDY FOR THOSE OF US ON THE RUN. I TRAVEL WITH A COUPLE IN SMALL PLASTIC CONTAINER WITH A SNAP ON LID. ALSO, THE SMELL IS INCREDIBLE, VERY UPLIFTING!!! PEOPLE ON THE GO NEED PODS!
Alot of friends said..PODS are to expensive, but I love Tide so I tried them anyway when I purchased my new washer/dryer last month. I love them, they work great and no mess!
I haven't yet received a sample, so I went ahead and bought them. I love them, the scent, the cleaning power Tide is known for, they are great!!!!!
I thought that these were great after trying the sample on my jug of liquid Tide.. Less mess, right? But when I got the bag of pods home from the store, I noticed one had broken in the bag and now they are all gross and sticky. I guess that I will make certain to purchase the container of them from now on.
My husband noticed immediately that I had used a different laundry soap. He loves the long lasting scent. I love the super cleaning power in the little pod. It seems a little expensive but it's worth the money as it has a stain remover and brightener as well as detergent. Thank you Tide for an amazing product!!
Love Tide Pods - so convenient, and the clothes smell nice. Would recommend to all my friends and family members.
They are awesome, throw them in and forget about it. No more mess with spilling, no measuring and as always clean clothes. I love it!!
We recently went on an extended vacation where I needed to do laundry several times. It was great to be able to take a few pods out of the 40 count bag and go to the laundry facility @ our condo rather than a big bottle or box. I will definitely be using the pods again on our trips! Thanks for the great product! :-)
I received the new Tide Pod sample and was a little leery of the fact that you just throw it in the drum of the washer instead of the top dispensing area, but I should have never doubted. It was so easy, drop it in and start the load. I was worried that not all of it would dissolve, but as a loyal Tide user it did not disappoint. Depending on what the price point is when they are officially released in my area I don't see why I would bother buying Tide and fabric softener anymore!
these are so convenient for the other people in your household who don't understand laundry. now, if you could combine what you currently have going with something like the shout color catcher product, THEN, I'd be hooked!!
I got a free sample of Tide Pods and I have to say I like them a lot and I will be getting them again.
I got a sample Pod in the mail - thanks, Tide! Can't wait to buy a full supply. It was super convenient to just toss in my washer, and the clothes STILL smell wonderful.
The ease of use is excellent, just 1 pod per load. Didn't really notice any difference in the brightness or stain removal, of course only first use. It smells really good. Would definitely purchase for use again.
I was skeptical, but my clothes smelled great and it was so easy! I love the product and would love to see coupons to be able to buy more.
I love the new Tide Pods. MY clothes smell great and the colors look brighter. I bought the smaller package to see how I liked it, and I love it. Not only the convenience of the pod, but for the way your clothes come out, clean, bright and smelling great. I will continue for sure to buy these pods and I recommend them to all my friends.
I have already used the entire bag of spring meadow pods! Absolutely love them! Can't wait to try all of the scents.
I was skeptical at first so I used it in a smaller load of dirty clothes. The clothes came out very clean. I then got to thinking that I would buy this product for my son, who is in college, since he has smaller loads of wash. Then I thought "why not buy him this product to take with him to Japan this summer when he goes to school to study?" This product will fit very easily in his suitcase and he won't have to buy washing detergent when he is in Japan. I understand it's pretty pricey over there for everything. Great product!
Tide Pods are the bomb!!!! We saw them at Sam's Club and decided to give them a try. They clean my clothes so much better than the other laundry detergent I was using. Stains? what stains? And the smell they leave on my laundry is wonderful. They are convenient and easy to use. No muss no fuss. Please continue to keep making this product. I will definitely continue buying it.
The Pods make laundry easy to do, just pop it in and go. They also show how much laundry detergent is wasted in our laundry by following the lines on the lids.
I LOVE these new pods. They are so easy to use and really do a great job getting the laundry clean. I wish there was more scent to them though.. on the down side I went to purchase my second bag and when I got home I noticed that they went from 40 in the bag to 31.. I'm not happy about that.
TIDE PODS ARE AMAZING. I LOVE THE SIMPLICITY AND EASE OF THIS PRODUCT. SO HAPPY THAT I WAS ABLE TO TRY THIS. IF I HAD ONE THING BAD TO SAY IS, THAT I WENT TO THE STORE TO BUY SOME OF THE TIDE PODS, MAN OH MAN ARE THE BLOODY EXPENSIVE. THIS IS NOT THE SOAP FOR THE PEOPLE OF TODAY'S ECONOMY THAT IS FOR SURE.
Did I really just say laundry detergent makes me happy? I really love this product. I have 5 girls and lots of clothes to wash. Love, the pre-measured pods. Love, the way it gets the clothes clean. Love that the box said 55 loads and i really got 55 loads out of the box. Love, the package design and the cute little pods. I highly recommend this product and will continue to use it. PS my girls say "Tide is Boss"
An Excellent product, Havent found one lyk this b4
I love the Tide Pods and so does my daughter. What a great idea. So simple. Drop, load and walk away. Love the container they come in also. Didn't think it could get better than liquid but I am a Pod user now!!
I am very pleased with the new Pods. I was surprised that there was a wonderful scent left after doing a large load of laundry. One small Pod packs a huge punch when it comes to doing a large load. I also like the fact that there are no bulky bottles to store. Awesome product.
The new Tide Pods Detergent is so easy to use, no muss, no fuss, no spillage, no measuring... just clean clothes!
Easy, fast, clean, no spills, smells great, clothes looked FANTASTIC! Where have these been all my life?!?!
i love this tide pods..so easy and cool to use..save my time too.. love it...i am buying and using it....
I love the new Pods Detergent. It is so convenient being able to toss it in and have my clothes come out so clean and fresh smelling.
When I opened my HE washer, first I noticed was the strong perfume smell. Definitely a stronger scent than even the Gain detergent. I also noticed that the white sections on the clothes (load of darks with white stripes, etc.) were much brighter than previous. Since then I've also done a load of whites and found the stains on socks from dirt, etc. (ran outside in my socks to retrieve cat) were totally gone without using an additional stain remover spray. Highly recommend product!
The New Tide Pods are Great! I love how simple these little pods are! Just grab one throw it in and your done. Its nice not having to deal with the liquid that can be messy. You don’t have to put any thought into how much detergent you need , Makes it very easy on my husband also! Thank you for the Sample I have already went out and bought a box since trying it! (Just a side note- Coupons would be nice every now or then)
Not only was this product very easy to use and convenient, the fragrance on my clothes when I put them in the dryer was very pleasing. I would buy the product!
My mother used Tide for years, I've used Tide 50 yrs. the pods are great try them. I did
I really like the Tide Pods. There is no mess to deal with and all measured out for you. All you have to do is pop it into the washer, It is as simple as that. No more bottles to recycle. Way to go all Tide Employes!!!!!!!!
Thank you for the free sample. This product worked great.It thoroughly cleaned the stains on my husband's shirts and got everything clean and bright. However, the perfume scent is overpowering. Even after two rinses, it still remains. Very irritating to my sinuses. It also will clash with my perfume and my husband's cologne when we wear the clothes washed with this. Also, only half our wash are a regular size, so this would only be useful half of the time. A great product but impractical and stinky. Perhaps if you eventually have it in an unscented version I might consider buying it.
The only thing missing is the coldwater FREE version!! Please offer it in the pods or at least bring it back in liquid.
Such an amazing product, I didn't receive a sample but I absolutely love these Tide Pods, thank you for an amazingly fabulous product!!
I tried a sample T-Pod on a wash load that contained blueberry stains on a white sweater and was pleasantly surprised with the results. The scent on the laundry was nice and not overpowering. Would I buy them? If I can get them at Costco for a good price, absolutely!
It is everything that I need all in one easy to use pod. I just toss it in and it's done. Great product and I love the subtle scent.
Tide has been my preference for years. This new product is very impressive in convenience, cleaning and stain removal.
These new Tide pods are easy to use and clean my clothes as well as liquid detergent with no mess!
We were very disappointed with our tide pods experience. Upon opening the container we realized multiple pods were stuck together. Trying to remove the pods from each other, the sacs began to tear open. This causes us to have to use multiple pods together. We buy tide expecting a superior product over other brands. This is a clear defect in the manufacturing of this product. The concept is great, but design needs some further thought.
Love the Pods. Easy to use, do messes with bottles. These would be very helpful for the elderly or disabled. No heavy lifting. I am so glad I received the sample. Went out and bought a 90 load container. After washing and dying you can smell the nice fragrances. Who would of thought that something so little could be so powerful!
This is a great idea! I bought them, just to try and was immediately hooked. No mess, no measure, no cup rinsing, no after drips and no heavy containers to lug around! They are so nice! My clothes are just as clean as using traditional Tide liquid. It is time saving, and cost effective. I have completely switched to the Pods, Extra soil??? Just toss in two. Simple, easy and effective! Gets you back to the things that matter most instead of being tied to the laundry!
I received a free sample of this but was heading out of town so I didn't use it. Without even trying it, I went out and bought a 57 load container. Each load is a perfectly measured, slimeless addition of detergent to the load. Now if only we could make Downy Pods that don't dissolve until the rinse water! Until then I still use the Downy Ball.
My husband & I both LOVE the Tide Pods! They are so convenient and it takes the measuring out and makes it easier than ever to wash your clothes We still have the fresh crisp smell of Tide but the convenience stepped it up a notch! The one thing we did not like is the fact that they are all individually packaged. The plastic, as we all know is not environmentally friendly. Do they have to be packaged like that? That is why we rate the Pods a 4 instead of a 5! GREAT JOB TIDE!
It was very simple to use and my clothes came out very clean.
Now in a much easier to use form. Same GREAT cleaning but just throw the pod in and you are done.
I received a sample and absolutely loved it!!! I have purchased a couple of packages since because it takes up less room and works wonderfully!!!!
I LOVE THE NEW TIDE PODS!!! MY HOLE FAMILY HAS ALWAYS USED TIDE AND STILL TODAY THAT IS WHAT I PREFER. i TRIED OTHER BRANDS BUT I WILL STICK WITH TIDE. NOW THE PODS. HOW EASY!!!! NO MEASURING, NO MESS. LOVE IT!!!
I like many people do not leap for joy at the mere thought of doing laundry. Let's face it, it is STILL a chore on the laundry list of things that must be done. However, I do enjoy wearing clean clothes so launder I will. After receiving the free sample, I placed it in the laundry room about a week before using it. I wanted to wash a load of laundry before work in order to have one less thing to do after work. I placed the clothes in the washer and popped in the Tide Pod ... joila, done. It would have taken about the same amount of time to pour Tide from the bottle in the dispenser, but the idea of just popping the pod in made the process seem less work-related. Now, I'm not wearing a white lace dress and running through a field of beautiful daisies at the thought of doing laundry since I purchased my own package of Tide Pods, but ... it has lessened the dread of doing laundry (big smile). Thanks Tide. You are appreciated.
I love the new Tide pods!!! It makes doing laundry quicker and simpler. I don't have to lug around a bunch of big bottles anymore and my clothes come out clean and fresh smelling every time. This is the best product I have found in a very long time. Quality and affordability, Wonderful!!!
It was great and very easy to use same Tide product and great results
Very easy to use, as well as convenient. Everything is combined all together and I found that my clothes came out really clean and bright. No soap residue or bleach spots to worry about. I will definitely use these again.
I truly love the Tide pods, I was buying the detergent, laundry boost and stain remover. I am saving time and money. You still have to pretreat some stains that have set in, but I do not have a problem with that. Would recommend for everyone.
My clothes are always clean and fresh smelling. This product is amazing and makes laundry a breeze without carrying large containers or measuring detergent. Thankyou TIDE!!! I want a free year supply lol. Its great for college kids because this product makes storing easy and no mess
It was nice not having to measure out and pour, avoiding any spills. Takes up less space. My only concern is how environmentally friendly the product is, and I feel like I can only do large loads.
The Tide Pods Detergent is the best idea that any company has come up with. It dissolves so quickly and cleans so well, just like you would expect, fromTide. Since you can use it in all types of washing machines, any household will enjoy the convenience of the Tide Pods. I love Tide, and the Tide Pods are just another great product from the Tide company.
I received my tide pod and used it in my husbands work clothes.it cleaned them really good. I liked it because it was so easy and not messy.
Cannot review...pods sample arrived split, a mess.
Pods are the latest and greatest of laundry detergents! I loved them. So easy and no mess. Way to keep in the lead, Tide.
I was hoping for a better product But the Tide Pods have more advertaising than quality, did not do a better cleaning, no good smell after drying, and no fom in the machine!! maybe if I put 5 or 6 of them, so it would be very expensive to do the laundry!!!
Well I did'nt belive it could work or be enough in that little ball but it was and it worked great just like Tide always does
It was very easy to use. No more heavy bottles to lug around. Loved the scent. I will be buying this again and again. Thank you for making doing laundry a little easier :)
Loved this product! So simple to use, did a good job on clothes!
While I only used this once, it was so convient and simple. I will be buying these pods for regular use going forward.
I have used Tide for many many years and I love the new Pods. Once I use the tide I have I will be buying the Pods. They are very convenient. No fuss or mess with using them. I was surprised but I think the clothes came out brighter then normal.
Love them.. they are so easy to use and my clothes look and feel great!! Would like to tell everyone to try them.. Amazing!!
I've used the stain release pods with my Tide since they were introduced. This new POD brings together my Tide and my stain-fighter for the easiest washer setup ever. A time-saver that leaves my laundry TIDE FRESH---that's a champ in my book!
Finally, a detergent my husband can't overuse! txs
I love these Pods! Throw 'em in, throw the clothes in and go! Clothes come out clean & fresh. They are a no - brainer. I'll have to go check the different scents at the store but I wish they came with the Febreze Spring & Renewal scent, my favorite (hint, hint). I'd give 5 stars for the Febreze scent ;-) I'm definitely going to get the big jug of these. Great Idea, Tide!
this is the best thing I have ever gotten in the mail, you pop one in and thats it , no spills no mess its so easy my daughter now dose laundry for me its that easy. I work in a pre school and I do the laundry and we switched from tide powder to tide pods . thank you for a great product.
I love the PODS! Throw 'em in and clothes come out clean!!
the pod decided to adhere to my favorite night gown, didn't realize it and it went into the dryer and became a balled up mess in my nightgown! After working on it the sink I was able to get the pod remains to dissolve but then there was a soap stain on the back of my nightgown. the stain is still there after repeated washings, the pods work fine on my husband work clothes, but not using them on my clothes any of them ever again.
I bought some when I was visiting my daughter and loved them. When my liquid runs out, I'll switch to pods.
I have been a Tide user for years, and was absolutely thrilled when this came out, as I use Tide boost as well. However, this did not meet my expectations at all. It seemed to not get out the stains I missed and the clothes seemed not as clean :(
Tide Pods didn't leave stains on the clothes, dissolved completely-as promised (even using it in cold water). I love when a product works the way it's supposed to! I'd buy this product.
thank you for the sample. it removed a stain on my dress that i has such a hard time getting out for months with everything else ive tried. so much power in one little tide pod. and the fragrance is so great smelling it made my laundry room smell absolutly great. thank you.
The pod is great and so easy. The only thing is the strong smell that it has. I line dry my clothes and it has a very strong smell. Will use it again and see if the dryer takes out some of the smell. Gets the clothes really clean. Thanks for the sample. Another great product.
i had to buy something to get some stains out on my favorite blouse. used the sample of tide pods detergent. was glad that the food stain, whatever it was came off after using it.love this product, i recommend it for stains.
I love the convenience of just throwing one into the washer. They work in every temperature.
Just poped it in and was done! Worked great would recommend to anyone!
I enjoy tide products and to see and use something this easy was wonderful.We are in the process of doing a great deal of traveling and PODS makes it easier. You don't have to carry stain remover and brightener with you, it's all in one. No pretreating is necessary. It will be great.
This was an awesome product! It's great to work with. I love the texture of it, nice and pliable, so you know it dissolves in your wash. Thanks again, TIDE!
This is a very nice improvement on ways to do laundry - it is as easy as it gets and is not more expensive than using the different laundry products involved. Throw one packet in with a load of laundry and that's it - no need to add buy or add anything else. What more could you ask for?!?
The pods are less messy than detergent but not made for small loads.
I tried the new sample of Tide Pod and it was great, I immedietely went out and bought some. My clothes came out so clean and bright. I had a white blouse that said (no Bleach) so it was so hard to get the brightness back. Tide pods bought the brightness back to my blouse, I was so pleased. Thanks Tide pods, I am greatful. If you'd like to send me some more samples, that would please me also.
I love this little tab it has everything in one tab. Just throw in the laundry with no mess and ease. It helps the ones like me that has arthritis. You don't have to unscrew anything. It helps a lot. Just wished it would have came out sooner.
I got a sample of this and it was a great surprise. Fresh scent, clean and bright clothes. Definitely a new addition to my laundry needs.
Try this product. Tide boost pods work really great.
It was perfect, I put my laundry in and pop'ed one of the pods in and I was set to do whatever else I needed that day! I didn't have to worry about measuring anything or even making a mess! Washed my cloths, leaving a fresh clean smell! Thanks!
I really did like using these. It is a lot easier than having to measure out the powder or liquid to be used. Also liked not having a mess to clean up due to spills and all. Will definitely be buying more to use in the wash.
These are the best. I already use liquid soap. But, when I received my free pod in the mail. It made my laundry much easier. So, light, I don't have to haul the big bottle. I am very happy with my laundry result. I purchased the Pods. It will be a great help when traveling. I won't have to buy a bottle of Tide and not finish using it. Thank you.
These new Pods make clothes washing a breeze. I love that it has detergent, bleach and fabric softner all in one little pod. My clothes seemed cleaner, fresher and softer than before. I will be recommending these pods to all my friends.
It worked great. I would rather use these then the liquid any day.
Although I didn't notice a huge difference in terms of "color brightness" or clothes being cleaner than with my other detergent, the pods were still a lot easier to use. And that is a BIG deal in this house. With 6 kids, who all have to do their own laundry, the pod made it so that no one had to measure out, or over measure as is often the case, the laundry detergent. Being able to just toss in a pod, throw in the clothes & go made laundry day(s) a breeze!!
I love convenience, and still product you can rely on. Thanks
Talk about handy!!! These little pods worked as well as the best of anything else I've ever used. (Besides home use, take 'em on vacation to use at the laundrymat! Or to Grandma's so you aren't using up her personal favorite.) Unfortunately, we're so old we don't get a lot of terrible stains to report about.... But like all the Tide products, I expect this one to perform like a champ.
This worked very good for us cleaning the oil and dirt from my pants and shirts. Well have to get some more of these..
I purchased regular Tide he liquid at the grocery and attached was a sample for the Tide Pod. I tried is and it clean my clothes the same as my regular liquid Tide he. I will purchase the pod the next time I need detergent. I do have one question since I have a top loading Kenmore Elite Oasis if I just do a half load...is the pod going to leave soap residue in my clothes?
The ultimate test is 'whites', this pod passed with flying colors. What better test than a teenagers white socks and undershirts? Love that all 3 products needed to wash whites are included. An extra plus for me is that Tide PODS can be used in HE machines. Genius, thank you. Will continue to use Tide PODS. Congrats to Tide, always making our lives easier.
I love Tide pods! Its super easy to use, no measuring and no mess. My clothes came out looking great and the stains were gone. I am definitely buying Tide pods in the future! Great product, keep up the good work.
I love this product. It is so easy to use, and it WORKS! I used it in a load of whites and if you know how dirty your socks get in Ga. dirt while gardening, you know what my socks look like after doing it. They came clean. I was shocked. Was a 1st that there was no yellow stains left. Thanks Tide for this product!
This was amazing. No mess no fuss just clean clothes that smelled wonderful!
This is such a great product, soooo easy to use, just throw it in, throw the clothes in, wash!! Ad the clothes come out so clean and smelling great!!! Thanks for making life easier!!!
These things are the best thing since sliced bread. I only wish they came in original scent.
I love these pods! They work great and are simple and easy to use. There is also a lot less plastic waste which is a plus these days. I haven't been able to find them in original scent but they are still fabulous!!
I loved the ease of tide pods. Pop them in with the clothes..no mess. I could see a big family not using these as it would cost to much. But, for a single person living alone in an apt. would make laundry day so much easier. No big bottles to haul to the laundry room.
I was a little skeptical about the pods ability to clean and make my laundry smell fresh. Well I washed the dirtiest load I could find and was extremely surprised to find the clothes clean and smelling fresh. Thank You Tide for an easy to use and great product
So simple and made my clothes smell fantastic! No more lugging large bottles of detergent around!
I loved this product. We purchased it because we had a coupon, but would pay full price anytime! I have 4 kids and 3 of them are active boys. No problem with stains coming out of clothes when I used Tide pods. I was a little worried they would not produce soap suds and a fresh smell, but when I checked half way through the wash cycle it was soapy and smelled great!
I received a sample of Tide Pods and gave it a try. I was expecting it to be the same as a liquid detergent product. It turned out to be so much more than that. I immediately purchased a "jug" of the product and have been happily using it. It is extremely fast & easy to use. You don't have to worry about using too much product nor do you have the mess that comes with pouring liquids. My clothing comes out of the washer smelling very fresh and there is a noticeable improvement in color brightness and minor stains. I love the new Pod product and will continue to use it along with recommending it to others.
I have tried Tide Pods for my self and I would say they are a great buy! You drop it in the washer and put clothes in and walk away. For a busy mom that is great. It cleans, and brightens and you don't have to worry about adding any extra stuff like bleach. I'm hooked and will not go back to regular liquid again.
I was blown away by how totally fantastic this product is! It's not only easy to use but my clothes came out bright white and the light colors vivid! I had a couple of stains before the wash and after they were gone without any scrubbing! This is a new innovation to laundry detergent! Thanks Tide
I was amazed at how well it cleaned and the wonderful scent it left behind. All I had to do was toss this small packet in, and poof, my laundry came out clean and soft. For anyone who hasnt tried it,,,, you really have to !!!! So easy and NO mess.
Easy to use, same wash as regular tide, but not worth the extra cost. I can spare the 5 seconds to pour Tide from the bottle or scoop out of the box.
I rec'd the sample and decided to try it shortly after. A shirt that was stained and had been washed numerous times was in that wash. ALL the stains came out!!! The laundry was awesome, and tossing the pod in was so easy!!!
Thank-you for making another outstanding product. Tide Pods does everything as advertised and more. The smell is Awesome!! and as a stain remover, First Cabin!! I always tell my friends "If your not using Tide, you might as well use dish soap." Thanks again, Your biggest fan. Judy
Received my free sample, popped the "Pod" in the wash, added dingy jeans.1-2-3! My darling husband's (who works on a horse farm) jeans came out super! No grass/dirt stains and they smelled great! Just 'pop, drop & roll' how's that for convenience? Shaved off the time for pre-treating and got to savor some java instead...Ahhhh! Thanks Tide! :0)
I tryed the pack in my worse grungy closes.I was not impressed.It did smell nice but that is all.I will continue to use the liqud Tide just not the pack.It may work for others just not in my house hold.
So easy, even my 14 year old can do it :) {finally no mess}
IT IS HARD TO TELL HOW WELL IT WORKS SINCE I ONLY USED ONE.WE HAVE IRON IN OUR WATER HERE AND IT DID NOT REMOVE ANY OF THAT AT ALL.ALSO NOT SURE HOW GOOD IT IS FOR A SEPTIC SYSTEM.I WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO A FRIEND ONLY BECAUSE IT IS EASY TO USE.I WOULD HAVE TO TRY IT MORE THEN ONCE TO REALLY SEE HOW ELL IT WORKS.
So easy to use, our clothes smell great and look clean. Makes laundry day a breeze! No more measuring or worrying about did I put enough detergent in or did I put to much! I'm hooked!
Leave it to Tide to bring us a product that is easy to use, performs well and makes my life easier. Bravo!
I love the new Tide Pods not only because they work great but I also think they save me money. I tend to "not measure exactly" my detergent and I usually put in more than I need. This concept takes the measuring process away from me and I use the amount needed. I love the sent but would love to have some pods match up with Downey!
I used my Tide pod to launder a flowered quilt. We bought a new mattress set for that bedroom. The Tide pod made the quilt looking bright and smelling fresh and new.
Loved my free sample, I have 7 people living in my house and I do laundry almost everyday. The Tide Pods are so convenient, and easy to use I've already went out and bought some. I love Tide, and with children the Rid Boost packs are wonderful. Love this product.
I bought these to wash my husband's grubby work clothes, and they worked great! I usually end up pretreating and adding Oxy to the detergent, but totally not necessary with the Pods. I use them for all my laundry now and they work great on the kids' mud and grass stains as well! I am a true convert!
The sample I received worked fine on a medium-sized load with soiling that I'd consider average for adult clothing. However, the convenience of the no-measure pod is offset by the lack of flexibility. I have four children who often have VERY soiled clothing. They occasionally get into something that needs to be washed right away before the stain can set. With a liquid or powder detergent, I can adjust the amount based on how dirty the clothes are, and the size of the load. A pod could be too much for a very small load - wasteful and inefficient - while it might take 2 or even 3 to clean a large load of very heavily soiled kids clothes. That would become very expensive, very quickly. Would I recommend this product to a friend? Probably not if they have children ... but I'd recommend it to my mother (a lifetime Tide devotee) or someone whose laundry basket looks a lot different than mine. I love Tide and think this would be a great product for someone whose circumstances are different than mine. For now, we'll stick with liquid and powder detergents because those allow me to adjust the amount based on the load, and are more economical.
Tried and LOVED THESE! I just wish I had these years ago when I had to go the laundry mat. Would've been super easy to grab these instead of carrying a bottle. I will be buying these again!!!!!
I thought I would try Tide Pods when I saw them on sale at Costco. I have always used Tide products and like them, but I wasn't sure about the pods. I bought them brought them home and used them on my husbands pillow case which I have tried everything and I mean everything including old wives tales to get the oily hair stains out. I didn't let them soak just put them in and washed as I normally would. Dried them on the line and brought them in and the stains were almost completely gone had had to look really hard to tell which pillow case was his and which was mine. I absolutely love this product. I have recommended it to a friend who has tried it and feels the same way. She was going around the store and telling people who were looking at it that it was great. I also love the way it makes my clothes smell.
I enjoyed the ease of this product. It worked great and my clothes smelled fresh!
Washing Dad's old tee shirts, I find that Tide works better than bleach for whitening. This product is amazing!
We absolutely love this concept no dripping , no measuring, and time saving. LOVE LOVE .
I received a free sample in the mail. So as much as I love using Tide...I used the POD! I love it! It's just as good as the usual Liquid Tide...only easier!!! No more measuring...pouring! Just toss it in the washer! Going out to get more today! Tide Pods...love them!!!
Did a load of wash shortly after the sample arrived. It was great, I now feel confident even my husband could do a good job of it and find it really easy.
I love that I can just drop one of these in a load of clothes. There's no pouring, measuring, dripping...no mess! And I know my clothes are going to come out clean and smelling fresh...great product!
I liked not having to measure, just throw the pod in and go. No messy liquid or powder. So convenient and my laundry was clean and smelled wonderful. There was no residue from the pod leftover, the outside dissolved like it was supposed to. I was a little worried because I've had problems with the Tide stain booster packets not dissolving completely, but no problems with the Tide Pod!
The new Tide pod was so easy. All I did was load the washer, throw in the pod and that was it. My clothes came out perfect.
I love the new Tide Pods. There is no measuring, no spilling, and no waste. The absolute best product ever and from my favorite product...TIDE! Thank you.
Tide pods detergent is great to carry when traveling. No spills with the pods or concerns of need to double or triple bag. My children take to pods to summer camp and share with their friends. No need to measure or sneeze like a powder detergent. Clothing is clean and fresh after washing with Tide pods even when living in a campground.
love the ease of this product and it worked great, but too pricey for me.
This is the best. I love having it all in one place.
Thank you for the free sample. Used the sample in my front loader seemed to not get the clothes as soft. I think I like the liquid tide he better.
This product was fantastic! I was a little skeptical at first but it worked like a charm. Very easy to use and it CLEANED dirty clothes. My husband's jeans were so dirty from working outdoors and it took all of the dirt and nastiness out. I was very impressed. Definitely a keeper. Thanks for sending me the sample. Can you also send some coupons???!!
These immediately reminded me of the Tide tablets I loved from many years ago. My only complaint is I miss the Febreze scent I have used recently in the liquid. It leaves my clothes smelling so wonderful. Will this be an option in the future???
Finally! The Tide Pods Detergent is such an easy, hassel free way to clean laundry. Just tossing the pod in the washer is soooo much easier. Lugging a big heavy container around and trying to pour the liquid into the cap while having enough strength to hold and tilt the container is a pain. It's almost a pleasure to do laundry!
Yea! No more measuring. No messy caps. No more adding water to get the last bit.
NOT ONLY IS THIS PRODUCT GREAT .BUT IT IS EASY TO USE!!!
I loved the pods, they cleaned well and had a good scent. My only draw back is the price compared to the price of regular Tide. I do know that it has 3 different properties to it and that will save money. I didn't have any clothes in the load that I washed that was stained to see how well the stain fighting abilities are but over all I liked the product. My favorite thing is throwing one thing in the machine without dealing with the big jug of liquid, add fabric softener to it and I am sold!! :)
Awesome concept. I love it. It's easy and fast. I just start my washer, toss in the pod, put my laundry in the washer and voila! No powder residue, no heavy bottles to lift, no unhappy me!! My clothes smell & look fresh and clean. Keep up the great work Tide!
Simple even the kids can do laundry. No mess and everything you need is included in the Pod.
I received a free sample of Tide Pods when I purchased my usual liquid Tide. I liked the idea of an all-in-one and just throwing it into the washer versus having to measure the detergent. My only dislike was the clothes had too much of a scent afterwards. I only use the original Tide scent, so I hope the Pods will come in that scent in the future. Great product though!
When I first received a sample of the new Tide Pods Detergent I was very skeptical that this "little pod" was going to thoroughly clean a whole load of my towels without any extra additives (such as some type of scent booster). Once I tried it though and smelled the towels afterward I was amazed to find my towels smelled fresh and clean. After this experience I ran to Target and got a full box of the new Tide Pods Detergent and have been extremely happy with each load of laundry I have washed thus far!
My son works at Sonic and it gets all the grease, smell and yuck from work out of his cloths. Thanks so much for making something we can use in a load that saves his work cloths.
love the Pods...so easy and quick to use and NO waste. Anyone can use them without measuring or wasting any of the detergent....very smart idea...
I use a shared laundry and have had trouble getting the pods to dissolve completely had a mess in the machine to clean up when cycle is done back to Tide liquid
I absolutely love this product It is convenient and my clothes come out smelling wonderful and clean It is a little higher in cost but for now worth the extra for its benefit
I liked this product, it definitely made doing laundry easy. Made the clothes smell wonderful. Will definitely buy it in the near future.
These new pods do a wonderful job in the wash. Easy to use and so portable. I used them on vacation they packed easily and worked like a charm!
Tide Pods are so easy to use! I have a front loader washer and the Pods are so much easier than liquid. They clean like crazy! They even got the greasy food stains out of my husband's shirts! Love this product!
So Easy to use. Just drop in and out comes a clean wash. Perfect every time. No fuss no muss.
The new Tide Pods Are not only super easy to use. But you end up with a great smelling and clean laundry.
Tide has gone beyond my expectations of laundry detergent. I've always added a stain remover and disinfectant in addition to the detergent in my wash cycle to ensure the ground in dirt and grass stains and stale odors gets out of my husband's work clothes, especially his coveralls and jeans. So when I receive my sample of Tide Pods, I put it to the test. Cold water, extra-large wash load, one Tide Pod. Amazing, his work clothes - dirt, grass, and even oil - the entire load came out clean and with a fragrance that lasted beyond the first wear. Tide has made our laundry chore so much easier, one Pod in the wash cycle and no need to add any other products. An awesome and great product!!!
Clothes came out smelling fresh and looked great..
Ever since I first tried these I've loved them! So easy to use, my kids are even wanting to do laundry now!! I've also been recommending them to everyone I know.
The number one great thing is no measuring. My clothes came out clean with a really nice scent. Can't ask for more and will be buying some next time I go shopping.
I got a free sample, and gave it a go on my warm water load. The pod is soft and gel-like, and dissolved easily in the water. My clothes came out nice and clean, and fresh-smelling. The only thing that will keep me from using these in the future is the cost. They are a lot more expensive than even the liquid.
Quick and easy and ESP. Good for vacation or travels
I love these pods! I can fill my triple loader full...throw in a pod and my clothes come out clean and smelling fresh! So easy to use with the same great results of all my tide products!
I am already a fan of Tide but after trying the new Tide Pods, I have fallen in love all over again. The pods do an excellent job of cleaning and leave just the right amount of scent. I tried the Spring Meadow scented pod. They are so easy to use, I love them!.....they're cute too :)
I tried my sample of Tide Pods and was amazed. They are easy to use and my clothes came out bright and smelling terrific. The Pods are easy and convenient. I would recommend them to anyone.
It is an excellent product, I will continue buying ever, I love it.
I loved the smell of my clothes washed in the new tide pods detergent. They were super clean as expected with a Tide product!
I like the new Tide Pods for the convenience. I noticed the same cleaning power with one little Pod as I generally get when using my full cap of liquid Tide. The only thing different was the scent was not as strong. I for one love the smell of my Tide, so based on that, I think I'll stick with my Total Care.
they need to make the pods out of the no fragrance for people that have allergies etc.... I loved the way it cleaned!! very easy...
It was so simple to use this detergent and it got my laundry clean. Perfect!
Super easy to use. They make the clothes smell great. I love not having to measure the detergent! They work amazing
The Pod, the wave of laundry's future! It is so easy. You just pop the Pod into the washer, throw in the clothes and you're done. No pre-treating, no added bleach...Simple.
I love that I don't have to lift heavy bottles. Also the amount is the same every time. No accidental overflows. It also does a great job
Used in HE side washer and it got stuck between the plastic for the door and the bin. Was a complete waist I don't dislike the pod but I definitely don't like HE washers. NOT enough water and clothes still come out dirty. Back to PODS, they can get stuck and your clothes could possible not get clean. Definitely won't help you reduce water if you using HE washer.
I am a ridiculously busy mother of three small children enrolled in college full-time. I value my time ( at least what time I can call mine). The Tide Pods are so amazingly simple and clean. I absolutely love them!! Not only do they clean wonderfully, but they also don't create a mess themselves like regular detergent can. Yay pods!!! :)
Overall when the POD is used with a washer with one fill only for the Wash Cycle, the Tide POD does an excellent job - colors are bright, whites are very white. HOWEVER - when placing a POD in an HE Washer with an electronic load water level system (no low water, medium, High Extra High) the water cycles many times and the POD is washed out the Washer before the actual wash cycle starts. To get the right amount of soap you have to put the POD in the Washer at the beginning of the Wash Cycle as the auto soap loader overflows when the POD is placed in (POD plugs drain into washer and overflows on floor. Sorry Great idea but not well thought out.
Cleaning seemed good and I definitely liked the convenience. However, I'm one of those people who prefers an unscented product and when I bought pods, the only ones I could find were scented and they leave a very strong odor on my clothes. I will only buy again if I can find pods that are unscented.
The tide pod cleaned my towels quite well and left them smelling clean and fresh.
It was so easy that even my husband could do the wash and not mess it up.
I own a pet sitting Service and really have some incredibly dirty towels/comforters etc to wash on a weekly basis.Prior to using the new Pod product I was pre-spotting with a prewash agent and using a laundry booster as well. Talk about time consuming! Now I just put in my load, throw in a pod and out comes clean every time. we are talking dirty dog prints, mud, even minor grass stains. All without pre-treating. Amazing is all i can say. I am hooked.
Tide always been my chose,past on from since my child hook.So when i got a tide pods sample,i found it was just be my choice from now on.No measuring,pull one out pot in,dose a excellent job.Tide just keep improving ever day.Love my TIDE.
I think the price is high and even though I love the Pod, I will probably stick to the liquid which I get great sales on and coupons off coupons...If the Pods are within my expense account, I will buy them...Thanks Tide for making laundry less of a chore
No more guessing or messes. Pick up the Tide Pod Detergent pod and drop it in the washer. Cleaning up detergent drips and cleaning detergent trays are a thing of the past. I save so much money because I can buy exactly enough for the month of washing. No more running out to the store because someone used too much or dropped the bottle. Thanks Tide!
Overall, I really enjoyed using new Tide Pods Detergent. The smell was wonderful and I trust the Tide name to get my clothes their cleanest. But the thing I loved the most was the fact that there was no mess from pour/scooping. In fact, the only thing that kept me from giving it a full five stars would be the price I found them in the stores. Once the pods are more equivalent to the other detergent, I will probably make the switch. Until then, I think I will stay happy with my regular Tide.
I bought Tide Pods to "give them a try." I love them!! They clean my clothes and leave them smelling fantastic!! I did the math and came to the conclusion that they will save me money since I tend to use too much liquid in my regular washes. The Pods are quick and easy, just toss them in and toss in the clothes!!
The New Tide Pods are great!!! I already loved TIDE products now I have fallen in love completely for the second time... & I would do it all over again! Loving itt...
New Tides Pod Detergent is great if you have no time to think about laundry but want really clean and clothes. And who doesn't want that, especially with the eye-popping colors that are everywhere this spring. Totally happy with this product.
Received the sample and used it right away. Whites are brighter and colors are great. Went out the same day and found them at Target. Keep up the good work, I will use these all the time.
I love the fact that there is the stain booster and detergent all in one! I am seriously hoping that Tide also makes this product in the Free and Gentle line! Makes laundry quiet a bit easier!!!
the tide detergent pod is one of the most simplest and easy product on the market at this time, It a product you would expect for Tide .Same great cleaning and the smell leave your laundry smelling fresh and clean. thank you tide for another great product.
I got the free sample in the mail the day after my chihuahua got out of my fence and was mauled by neighbor dogs. He got abcesses and needed a drain and sutures, and oozed for about a week. I don't mean to be gross here. But I decided that load of laundry was the perfect test for my pod. So I threw the whole load in my HE machine with cold water. Not only did every oozey bloody stain come out, but even an old stain on a towel from a year ago was gone. Needless to say, I am impressed! And it is so easy to use, and lightweight to carry. I have not been able to afford to purchase it yet, but I hope to. Good job Tide!!!
I love love love laundry....the smells of clean clothes and tide detergent are amazing. The tide pod was so simple to use and left my clothes smelling fresh and clean. I love them! I give it a high rating
easy to use. No spilling just put it in. love them will buy more
I really liked the tide pod I received, although i was a little hesitant to use it at first due to my concern about the wash load, it was either too large, or too small (in my opinion). With that said, are these pods for any size load, say large heavy duty, and/or smaller loads of delicate items?
I love it!!! It's not that it's so easy...but that's a plus of course...it cleans better than the tide liquid! I was really surprised & happy with the new pods!
Much easier than worrying about lugging around the container and with that legendary Tide clean! A winner!!
I received my free pod last week and used it on my toughest load (my husband's white golf shirt included) it did a wonderful job of cleaning everything but it would have been better if I had rubbed a little liquid Tide on the grass stains. I like this but I won't go to the Pods completely I still love my liquid Tide he!
I saw it in Sam's club and thought why not give it a try. I love it. It works great and is easy to use. It even got my 15 year old daughter to do laundry. She likes to do it now. I went in the laundry the other night to put a load to wash and she had already done it.
I love the new Pods. Faster than measuring out the liquid, just throw them in ! Smells Great too
I purchased Tide Pods recently because of the Tide name and because of the packaging. However I must admit that I love the simple direction of dropping one in the washer and that's all that needs to be done. Better, I was pleasantly surprised how soft and clean my wash was and I honestly look forward to the next time I have a load to do.
Used the Tide Pods today for the first time and was exceptionally pleased. They were super easy to use, all you do is toss them in the washer before you add your clothes. My clothes came out smelling good, feeling soft and looking brighter.
i used it and was very happy with how well my clothe out with a shine after the wash...surely would buy all the time!!
I used to use Unstoppables in all loads, but with Tide Pods, I don't need to! The clothes smell terrific when I remove them from the washer, and continue to smell amazing even when the drying cycle is complete!! Kudos Tide, wonderful invention!!
I got a sample of Tide Pods in the mail the other day and I was really surprised at how great they work. No measuring or anything, They are perfect for a guy doing the laundry and they really clean great.
The new Tide Pods have an interesting feel to them. It may be a novelty, but I could feel the difference in the first load of laundry. It seemed to remove the residual fabric softener from the towels and left them feeling cleaner. I didn't give it a 5 because I want to wait and see if the pods last and don't disintegrate over time and heat in the container.
I like the ease of the pods. It got my clothes as clean as I've come to expect from Tide. I forget the scent of my sample, but it was stronger than I'm used to or than I like which is why I gave it 4 stars. I am a Mountain Spring girl, so I hope that I will be able to buy the pods in the traditional scents.
I got a sample in the mail, tried it immediately! It definitely changed my mind on Tide products! Made laundry less of chore! I will be changing my usually brand to Tide.
Tide is the only detergent I use. I love how the pod has the detergent,stain fighter & brightener all in one. Right now I use Tide detergent + Tide stain release but with the pod I would only have to buy 1 product. In the long run it will save money plus you won't have to lug around the heavy liquid bottle. My laundry came out great with the pod and it was easy and convenient to use. I will definitely be buying the pod after I finish up my liquid Tide!
I had a stain on one of my work pants that did not come out with regular washing . I had come to believe that its a stain to stay. When I got the Tide pod detergent I tried it on those pants and the stain came out . The socks and other things i put in with the pants came out much cleaner . I washed everything in warm water ,and I was surprised it came so clean. I usualy have to wash my socks in hot hot water for them to come out that clean.
my husband is a firefighter, so getting his clothes clean is a must plus sometimes in hours notice, these were prefect. Will use them again. I will also be sending them with him so when he is at work he can do his own laundry. When he needs.
How convenient to use when I have to take my laundry to a laundromat, and you can't beat the deep cleaning power of the tide pods. Excellent new product for anyone who wants a powerful little product thats easy to use. Thumbs up Tide!
Easy to use but what do I do if I have different size loads? I don't always want to use the same amount of detergent. I'll be paying more for less loads.
This product has so much perfume I couldn't use it. Too bad. It seems like it would be a useful product. Anyone with a fume sensitivity should steer clear.
I love this product. The smell is so good, the cloths are cleaned and this is my new partner...in my laundry...
Excellent Product. Brighter Whites, clean fresh smelling clothes and best of all no spills or measuring. A winner!
All I want to say is I LOVE THEM. They are so easy to use and do a great job of getting my clothes clean. A big SALUTE to Tide for the new pods.
I have always used tide. I purchased the big one that has the push button liquid release. Messy! It would drip, have a messy cup, ans god forbid the cat gets a hold of it. Now... Tide Pods :) no more mess, no rinsing the cup, no more drips. Thank you tide for making a cleaner laundry room!
I love the simplicity of Tide Pods. No more measuring out liquid detergent! I didn't care for the scent at first (Spring Meadow), but it's grown on me and my laundry smells really fresh and clean!
I actually went out and bought a bag before my sample got here but theyre awesome. Premeasured so theres no spilling or over sudsing just toss one (or 2 if needed) in sprinkle in the downy unstoppables and the clothes are always clean and fresh. Thanks tide for making life just a little bit simpler.
Thank you for my free Tide Pod sample. It is so convenient - just toss in the tub and go. No measuring or spilling. What a cleaver invention!!!
Works great and I love the portability of PODS to take to the laundromat,no big bottles to lug around !!
Thanks for sending me a sample. I love Tide Pods! They are so much easier than a bottle. Take one out of the package, throw it in the washer, and forget about it. Clothes come out clean, and fresh smelling.
The Tide Pods are very nice and easy to use.I'm not able to lift bottles, with the pod you simply drop it in. It kept my whites bright.A very nice idea when I have to go to the laundramat I don't have to worry about someone helping to carry the heavy bottles
Super easy to use. you just throw it in the washer and it works great. No measuring.
Got a sample and I didn't see much difference between the pods and the liquid Tide. Since I only had 2 pods, that wasn't much reference to base a review on. So, I decided to pick up the pods at the store last week. I've used 3/4 of the 31 pack, and I have noticed a decrease and a complete lack of suds in certain loads. I do not OVERLOAD the washer; I do 3/4 loads so everything has room to move. I have to use 2 pods per cycle and send the wash through another rinse cycle. And, there is absolutely no hint of fragrance. Not that I mind there was no scent (as I cannot use perfumed detergents without a reaction), but I did get "Ocean Mist" and expected at least a "hint" of fragrance. After washing the clothes, and before I sent them around to rinse again, there was NO scent at all. However, it does appear to do better on stains and does brighten the clothes, which is a positive. I haven't had the "booger" mess, or pod dissolving issues, so I consider myself lucky. One thing I would like to point out is the lack of a "free and clear" version. While this did not cause any additional irritation (no more than if I used regular Tide detergent), I would have liked to had the option of a "fragrance/perfume free" pod. I will continue to buy Tide products, but I will be switching back to the Free and Clear liquid detergent. I would recommend this to friends as it does help with stains and boosts the color, but would also point out the disadvantages as well.
i like the one step tide pod it made it much easier to do laundry,going make it a lot cheaper .thanks for letting try it.
I travel alot and have to wash clothes on the road. This eliminates the need for anything but this small pack. Saves room, time, and money. Washed clothes great!
this product doesn't work well with well water.haven't found anything that does.
I tried the Tide pod and it was better than thought it would. It had the great cleaning power of Tide along with my favorite Tide scent but so easy to use.
The pod I received was effective in keeping my twin five year old boys clothes smelling good and looking clean. I went to purchase this product after using the sample and was disappointed in the high price. Lower it and I'll keep buying it!
There were little pieces of the pod left in my washer and dryer after I used this product. It was on my cloths and stuck to the sides of my machines.
I have an HE machine, and a water softener. I had to add an extra rinse, but the clothes then looked great! the whites are bright!
I've always been a Tide fan, and I LOVE Tide Pods! It makes it super easy for my children to do their own laundry with no mess!
Easy to use and works great! Same great Tide as ever but no measuring... easy as pie!
I really like the use of detergent, stain remover, and fabric softener in 1- it really works!!!!
Simple to use, not messy, would be great while traveling.
I love the ease of use. You can't over or under utilize detergent. No waste. My only complaint was the scent. I prefer unscented products.
I love these pods because you don't have to measure. You just pop one of the pods into the washer. No measuring or mess and you put the right amount of detergent into the washer. I would recommend this product to any body. I don't use anything else, but these pods. And using the pods is cheaper than buying a bottle of liquid Tide.
My wife didn't like the pods at the start ( she had miss read the directions) she thought she had to pre-desolve the pod before washing, I pointed out that she was mistaken! Now she is in love with them, no powder or bleach to add. Thank You Tide
No more dripping detergent down a bottle for me!!!!!
THIS IS A SIMPLE AND CONVENIENT PRODUCT. THERE IS NO MESS, POURING OR MEASURING INVOLVED. AND IT TAKES UP LESS ROOM TO STORE. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.
Tide Pods detergent works very well, easy to trow in and I love the smell, very fresh!!
I love the new pods , you never have to measure again, Just drop in and load. They work so well also. Keep up the great work
I have used Tide all of my life, and would have never changed, but this new Tide is even better. Great convenience, great smelling, wonderfully clean clothes. Thanks, Tide for making it more fun to wash.
Was nice and easy to just pop in the washer. Makes it even easier to get the kids to do the wash without worrying whether they are using the right amount of detergent.
Nice to just through in detergent without the mess of measuring. Whites came out of the washer looking awesome. The scent was a little too strong for me.
I usually stick with a liquid detergent but was intrigued by both the price ($14.49 for 50 at my local club store) and the convenience of an all-in-one stain remover, brightener and detergent. I am still amazed every time I do a load of laundry! My whites really were cleaner and brighter. I especially noticed a considerable difference in my dish towels, which are now as fresh and bright as the day I bought them. I will definitely continue to purchase the pods and share their magic with my friends and family. Thanks, Tide! Sincerely, Leilani
I loved that the Tide pods were a three in one. They are so small and compact, I didn't have to worry about carrying around a big bottle of detergent to the laundry room and back. I toss it in the beginning of the wash and let it do it's thing!
I got the sample in the mail i was not sure if it would clean and make my clothes smell and look good.After my clothes were done they smelled clean and looked just as good if i used another product i liked how everything i used from 3 different products were it one pod.I really like this product it will save money with buying just the pod instead of having to purchase the other products to do my wash.
I saw the ad on tv today and knew this was what my life needed, no mess laundry soap. Knowing I can trust Tide I went to the store and came home with the pods. They smell great and work great as well. I am hooked, now the kids will not spill soap all down the side of the bottle and will not over pour either. Thank you for such a super product.
Bought the Pods....thought they were great....loved the convenience..loved the smell...but the pods left a terrible residue on my front loader....still have not been able to remove all of it....a very big disappointment..spent an hour to remove it...and it is still on my machine...would not recommend this to my friends....
Got a sample from Tide (thank you!) and used it on a load of dark clothes. Crossed my fingers as the load was really dirty - hubby was doing yard work for two days and his clothing showed it. So, started the water in the washer, popped in a Tide Pod, added softener, added the dirty clothes, closed the lid and crossed my fingers. Did not pre-treat anything - that was the whole point, to see if I had to pre-treat with these pods. Load came out great! Stains were gone! I really recommend this for those who would love to simplify the 'art' of doing laundry!
I have just tried a couple of weeks with Tide Pods, Mountain Spring scent. I appreciate the thought which went in to this new delivery mechanism for laundry cleaning agents, however they don't work for me in their current state of development. The main positive is that the cleaning power and the results are what I would expect of a Tide product. The negatives are 1) using cold water in an HE washer, I find the pods not dissolving as quickly as expected, thereby lessening the time the agents are in contact with the clothes, 2) the Mountain Spring scent impresses me of citrus and bubblegum, not at all like the Mountain scent of regular Tide liquid, 3) almost all of my washes are multiple, small loads because I live alone and this strikes me as a waste of the pods, which can handle large loads (perhaps a mini-pod version might be offered, however people might just try to use them on large loads, anyway, and then complain about insufficient cleaning). For now, I'll stick with Tide Totalclean, which is the best overall product for cleaning and softening clothing that I have ever used.
I used to test and i liked it very much. will change my detergent for tide pods because its very easy to use, without messing around..
I'm glad someone came up with a solution which is similar to my dishwasher detergent. A pod with an "all inclusive" detergent, stain-fighter and freshener. Just the right amount every time. No mess to clean up when the detergent bottle decides to leak on top of the dryer. That makes the wife happy, too!. It was a pleasant surprise to receive something in the mail which was useful. I used the sample in my whites with hot water and it work fabulously! I only have two questions, when will it be available in my area and when will they come up with the same pod for fabric softener? Great product, thanks so much for including me in your test market.
The Tide Pod I received performed no better than my regular detergent. I will not buy it because it's much more expensive and didn't do anything special.
I received this one pod sample and tried this product out today. I just dropped the pod into the washer drum, put my clothes in and shut the door. IT WAS AS EASY AS THAT! After the clothes were washed, I immediately smelled every piece of clothing that I put in the wash. All of the clothes smelled nice, especially the towels that seem to never get completely cleaned! I have just set the time for drying my clothes and cannot wait to see and smell the clean and dry clothes.
I used the pod the same day that I received it in the mail. As a nurse, I need my whites white. The pod not only brightens all clothes but they are soft and smell terrific
I received a free sample in the mail. It is a great product. I have always loved tide products because they smell so fresh and make my clothes smell amazing. I was not disappointed with the Tide Pod at all. I like how you just throw the pod in the wash and you are done. NO mess, no dripping and no measuring. My clothes came out fresh, clean, and spotless. The only complaint I would have is the tide pod does not have a softener included in the pack. If this was added it would be the best laundry option out there!
It didn't clean my clothes well with one POD. I used two on my next load and it worked better. I do not overload or have large excessive loads. I actually bought the product but will be going back to my liquid,waste of money.
My wife wanted to sell her wedding dress, but it had been stored haphazardly for decades & was heavily soiled. We decided to try your sample in a delicate cycle. Because of heavy beading, appliques & lace, we turned the dress inside out. We did not use any other products. We are absolutely stunned that the dress looks just as beautiful as it did on our wedding day! We hope to get a much better price now.
I saw this in the store and purchased it. I am thrilled with it! I hated using measuring cups with liquid detergent- too messy and powder laundry soap is out of the question! My clothes came out clean, bright and smelling great!!! I'm telling all my friends about this on my facebook page so they'll love it too!
Thought it was very easy and a great time saver. Even kids can do the laundry. Probably will save money because they do not use too much detergent.
1Easy to use 2 Non spill 3 Smells Great 4 Got out Stains 5 Softened My Clothes 6 Made My Colors Brighter 7 No Measuring 8 No Presoaking 9 Helps Retain Colors 10 Maintained Fresh Scent All Day Long And that is why I say 10 stars!
I bought these at our local grocery store. I thought that I would give it a try. I absolutely love them! They are so convenient and they work great. Will definitely be buying again! I have used them in cold, warm, and hot wash. Dissolves the same in all temps.
I really liked Tide pods I felt like my laundry came out just as clean if not cleaner as when I use two scoops of soap I really like that I can just reach in the bag toss one or two in and thats it I picked the bag up from wal-mart spent about 9 bucks really feel like it was worth every cent the one thing I would change for me would be that the smell would be stronger other than that im happy with this product
These are awesome little HE pouches you throw in with your load. Quick, Easy, and Works Great
I was very impressed with the Tide Pods. Though I don't find pouring detergent all that hard, it really was nice to just pop the Pod in and go. And my clothes came out very clean. I have 3 young children who end up with who knows what on their clothes and the entire load was spotless! Plus the smell was fantastic. I'm not usually fond of scented detergents but the Pod made my clothes smell great!
After going through multiple different detergents and not getting the exact scent, or brightening results I've wanted, this has done it for me. I like that you only need to throw in one pod, no need to measure and worry about spilling liquid. This is the best invention to come to laundry since the washer/dryer!!!! Also I like that there are no huge bottles to throw away, just the bag that the pods came in. GENIUS!!!!
I just tried this product and I love it! No more measuring or spills from liquid detergent bottles. Just toss it in the washer. The Tide Pod does the rest! Clothes come out smelling fresh and clean. Tide is my long-time favorite detergent but the new Tide Pods make laundry days even easier! Way to go Tide!
I just really was not happy with tide pod, i felt that it really didn't make the clothes brighter and the stain remover didn't really work! i love tide products but not this one:(
Maybe I got a bad batch , used in two loads and both times it left a purple looking deposit on my clothes ruined them .its a great idea maybe I used it inproperlly . Don't know .
I love Tide Pods....they are wonderful, they leave my clothes smelling wonderful and I would recommend them to anyone who loves great smelling clothes!
The pods are horrible. goopy soap remains on many of the garments. leaving hard spots of matrial clumped 2gether. ruins the article of clothing. rewashing will not remove it. Love the smell & the convience in our brand new high efficiency laundry set. Hate the mess it leaves on our clothes. a big waste of money & time...tring to remove the horrible globbs....ugh... problem NEEDS to be addressed!
I loved the Tide Pods..It cleaned really well and my laundry smelled wonderful..so easy to use..Thanks!
I loved the smell of the new Tide pods. My laundry looked great after washing and was very clean. I have well water and having a brightening agent is a great addition to laundry soap. Thanks for making a great new product.
My wife thought trying Tide Pods was a joke due to its small size. I however know that Tide is our go-to brand. When the sample arrived I threw the pod in with my whites and hoped for the best. I let my wife fold the laundry this load and laughed when she admitted that the laundry looked brighter. Thank you Tide for the update on laundry and we have picked up a box already.
I received a sample of Spring Meadow Tide Pods and threw it in with a load of towels. It smells great, cleaned the dirt out of my white kitchen towels, and the scent worked well with my outdoor fresh dryer sheets and fresh scent fabric softener. It's easy to use and I see myself buying a box of pods next visit to the store.
I purchased my pods, didn't receive any free samples. I tried 2 different scents and was incredibly disappointed with both. I thought these little buggers would be a great money saver, but they weren't. I ended up having to use 2 pods per load, and still my clothes didn't come out smelling or feeling all that clean. I never overloaded the washer, used warm water settings, did everything the package said -- through 2 different 18-pacs of Pods!! -- and went back to another liquid detergent. These little puppies just aren't worth all the hype, not in my opinion anyway and I gave them $20.00+ of my money to figure that out.
3 products in 1 pod was Great. Also quick & easy. Didn't see much difference in Brightness or smelling any better
I sure enjoyed using the pod and will be buying some at Sam's Club (where I've seen them) very soon! Thanks!
My nine year old daughter talked me into buying her a white coat and throughout the winter, I have not been able to return the cuffs to their original glory, no matter how much I scrubbed. So, tonight, I decided to try out my Pod sample to see if it really 'brightens' as claimed on the packaging. I wish I would have taken a before and after picture. It is AMAZING!! I am a believer and my daughter has a white coat again!!
I have to being a little skeptical about the Tide Pods - most of the other pre-measured/pre-packaged detergents for dishwashers and other appliances never seemed to do much. The Tide Pods are very different. I was amazed at how effective they were in removing set-in stains and making my clothes bright and clean. I will certainly be switching to Tide Pods, even though they are a little more expensive than regular detergent.
I have been a lifelong Tide user. Currently, I live in an apartment complex where I have to lug my laundry down two flights of stairs and into another building. It has been tough to carry my detergent and stain fighting agent along with my laundry. The pods allow me to skip carrying the big heavy bottles and still get the Tide power that I am used to.
I tried my sample on the worst laundry I have, my construction worker husband's workclothes... The Convenience Factor was GREAT! Just pop and go but it did not get his clothes as clean as if I had pre-treated them.
I Love, Love, Love this product!! I makes your clothes so clean and smell so fresh.
I received a free sample of Tide Pods in the mail, and gathered my usual load of laundry (plus some special cases) to test it against. I had the normal shirts, jeans, and undergarments, along with a blue tank top that displayed noticeable dullness, and a yellow shirt that received a mysterious stain in a previous wash that I had been unable to remove, even with prolonged soaking and multiple washes in OxyClean. To give you an idea of my clothes washing habits, I am a busy full-time college student, and clothes tend to get re-worn multiple times until there is noticeable dirt or smell (I know, I'm gross, I'm sorry). I don't sort by colors, and wash everything together in cold water. The Tide Pod was up against a formidable foe. First impressions: The Pod is really neat (in both cleanliness and tactile feeling). It feels almost like a delicate bath bead. They smell nice and light, but not overly similar to other Tide products I have smelled before. Washing results: My normal clothes looked, smelled, and felt clean after washing with the Tide Pod. The mysterious stains on the yellow shirt had disappeared, which particularly impressed me! The blue tank top, however, was still dingy and dull. My clothes smelled noticeably fresh (the smell is very faint, which in my opinion is a good thing, as strong scents can make me sneeze a lot). Overall impression: While I don't think this product brightened any of my clothes, I would definitely use the Tide Pod again for the convenience, tidiness, and the stain remover.
after doing a load of laundry found that clothes that were almost brand new were now stained. very disappointed and will not buy again. BEWARE!!
Yes they are small and convenient but I personally did not like them they left a slime in my washer and there was no fresh sent from the pod. I will probably not use them again.
I thought how easy is this. It cleaned the clothes well. My clothes were bright. I love the smell. All three rolled into one. What a convenience. And it works.
When I used my sample I put it in with a pair of shorts that had this dingy look to them that I couldn't really get out with other soaps. When the shorts came out they looked better, I probably should have used hot water to make the dinginess come out better but it was a mixed load. I also put in a shirt that had those white marks under the arm from deodorant. That didn't come even the slightest bit. The Tide Pods smell really nice though. My clothes came out smelling lovely and not heavy with soapy smells. It's not necessarily a BAD cleaner I would just have to use and actual stain remover with it for stained clothing which is contrary to the point of using Tide Pods since it already has stain remover in it.
So easy and no mess. Cleaned my clothes well, only thing I forgot to put in the fabric softener, really didn't miss it though.
I liked the detergent, but I don't think it would be worth the extra cost for the packaging. If you're into convenience though, this is the product for you! Just drop one in your laundry and you're done. Super simple and it works as well as other Tide products.
The new Tide PODS are great when you have a 10mth old baby on your hip and trying to do laundry! One handed all the way! Just throw in the POD and then the close and DONE!
Thursday I bought a small package of the pods $4.99 for 14 loads of laundry for this family of 2 thats 7 weeks worth of laundry soap so the $5 WAS a good price for tide for this 2 load per week 2 person family. Came home and made up a small load of laundry put a pod in, put the laundry in and waited,,,,,,washer beeped its done signal, took my laundry out to discover that the pod didn't disslove but instead left a HUGE purply blue stain on my pillow case, that will NOT come out. Did another load eysterday of junk clothes just to see what happend and the pod was thrown around in the machine and ended up on the rubber part of the machine right at the door....had to do a second load with liquid soap to make sure the clothes were cleaned. Concept is good but it needs work, so while tide works on that, i will be out pillow case shopping, which means buying a whole new sheet set since my pillowcases do not come as individuals....what an expensive experiment. NOT sure I will use them again, but i doubt it.
I really like this product. Just a toss in my washing machine. Clothes came out clean, fresh, and the stains where gone. With my husband and son working on cars, yard, home you name it. This product is just great for my do all family.
I thought this was a cool product and was satisfied with the results until I noticed blue spots on one of my favorite white cotton t-shirts. I never had this problem with regular liquid detergents, and I hope the spots wash out.
The load of towels came out soft & smelling great!
I have an old washer (32 yrs. old) so it can't be called high effieiency. I do have to use 2 pods per load but it gets the wash nice and clean.I would like to tell you that the pods are also a great pre-wash treatment for heavily soiled clothes. If you put a pod in a bucket of warm water along with the soiled item, the pod will get it cleaner than any pre-wash spray! Of course you have to soak the item at least 3 hours. I am very happy with this new item. Thank you P & G!
Im a HUGE FAN!! FELL IN LOVE WITH THE FIRST ONE I USED! I ACTUALLY WATCHED IT IN THE WASHER BEFORE I PUT THE CLOTHES IN WHILE THE WATER WAS FILLING UP...I THOUGHT WOW HOW AMAZING ITS GETTING "PUFFY" AND THEN IT STARTED TO DISSOLVE...I THOUGHT NO HOW CAN THIS BE THAT ITS THAT CONCENTRATED AND SUCH A SMALL AMOUNT..I HONESTLY THOUGHT I WOULD BE SADLY DISAPPOINTED...bUT, THE CLOTHES WERE DONE AND MY "SNIFF TEST" WAS FIRST...sMELLED GOOD,LOOKED CLEAN..HUMM I WAS SURPRISED BUT, THRILLED! NOW EVERYTIME CONSISTENTLY I LOVE THE SMELL AND IT SEEMS TO GET THE BASIC STUFF OUT! GREAT INVENTION PLUS ITS ALOT LESS MESSY AND CONVIENIENT PLUS ITS LIGHTER TO CARRY...tHE STRONGER THE SCENTS THE BETTER THEY WILL SMELL SO KEEP UP WITH MAKING SOME STRONGER SCENTS IS MY ONLY SUGGESTION! :)
I actually bought this cause it makes it easier for my girls (11) to help with laundry. The bad thing is some loads came out smelling great, others not so much. I would LOVE 1 product that could clean, brighten & soften. I enjoy strong smelling clean clothes.
Used this for the first time and my laundry is clean and smells fantastic.
I tried the sample and loved it., I bought the products and also a new HE washer...I was dissatisfied how the pod worked in my new washer, My clothes came out with the sticky purple on my clothing., which is the brightner portion to the pod. I hope this is going to come out in the next wash..otherwise, I won't be purchasing the pods and probably purchasing some new clothes :( love the scent of fresh meadows., and love the concept of an all in one idea....
I normally do not purchase Tide, but thought I would try the Tide pods. I loved the product! So great to incorporate the brighteners, the laundry detergent and cleaners all in one pod! Cleaned the items and incorporated a gentle aroma in each piece of laundry. Thank you so much for the free sample. I will be purchasing the Tide pods in my next shopping trip!
I couldn't wait for my free sample so I went to the store and purchased them. I LOVE THEM!! I never have to worry if I am using too much or too little detergent. They dissolve nicely and my clothes are cleaner. I will certainly continue using them!
I received a free sample and I loved it! The smell was really nice too. I usually go for the normal scents, but the spring meadow smelled so good on the towels! Everything washed up very nicely and it was so easy to use! No mess, just toss it in! I am SOLD!
My clothes came out clean and fresh! I like it because it is less packaging. Easy to transport. I have been using Tide for over 35 years. Still love it! I have tried all the others. But always come back to Tide!
This product is just a good as the traditional original Tide powder and liquids. The wash is clean and smells good too. We are a Tide family and will continue to use tide for laundering. Please give us more coupons too because coupons are a great savings too for a great product.
I was pretty wary of this little Pod to do a whole load, with some pretty stained and dirty clothing in it. We are dog trainers so get a lot of grass and animal stains in our clothing. Tide Pods not only cleaned ALL the stains but brightened my load. I am not one to write a lot of reviews but I would recommend this to my friends. It works as Tide claims even on set in stains, and that truly surprised me. Thanks Tide!
Loved the ease of just popping the Pod in the washer..nothing to measure and the brightness of my wash was great! Have used Tide for years and this is another great product from Tide..Thanks!
I purchased only the 14 count to try out. One must have exploded in the package. I had to put what appeared to be 3 pods in the washer 1 was whole the 2 were stuck and looked half empty. I have about 6 left in the pack but they too are stuck. I purchased the Mystic forest, but it seems a little too perfumey too.
Excited about the product when seen on television but was a big waste of money. They did not dissolve and they busted in the bag before I could even use them. Waste of money.
The scent of the pods was enjoyable but the use was the real winner here. It was very easy to use! I usually use cold water to wash my clothes and was afraid that it wouldn't dissolve but it did and it left my colors and whites bright and clean! I mixed my colors and whites in this load and there was no color transfer for me so this is another plus! I liked that it was very easy to use and I liked the scent. The only thing that worries me is the waste if I use the pod on smaller loads of laundry. I personally don't use that much detergent when I wash my clothes so for me to use a pod, I'd have to be doing a full load of laundry, no mini loads.
I just tried it on my all white laundry with a hot and cold cycle. The white clothes turned out as white as new! I have forgotten to add softener in the wash, but the clothes still turned out to be soft. I like it doesn't leave behind too much of a smell of being washed, like some of the Tide liquid!
I use the big jugs of the liquid tide and it always creates a mess in my laundry area as it drips down the side and on the the storage area. The pods will eliminate that issue. I just used it on a load and the finished load has a very pleasant smell. The clothing did not have a soapy feel so I know the pod dissolved easily in the wash. The pod makes the loading process faster too since you do not have to pour the liquid or powder detergent. Not sure what the cost is yet but if the cost is about the same as the liquid detergent that I am currently using, I will be switching to the pod asap. Great evolution on the traditional tide detergent P&G.
The cleaning ability of the Tide Pod is fair. The softener worked better than most liquid fabric softeners. The stain remover was a disaster. I had 3 stained garments I used as a test. A shirt with a mustard stain; another with a chocolate stain; and another with a dark dirt stain. None of the stains were removed by the stain remover, even though the chocolate and mustard had been pre-treated. So the stain remover needs more power. I rated the stain remover as 1 Star.
I have bought all three scents when I first saw it at FOOD LION. I LOVE IT!! I am a nurse, Husband a Firefighter, two teens, and My niece can get messy at well she is 2. It works wonderful on all our clothes. We have a energy eff. washer and dryer. I want coupons though to continue using the product.Want a little stronger scent though and why not add another packet for softner???
The pod is great as long as you have larger loads of laundry. Our loads of laundry are not always large so I think using the pods would be costly for us.
I loved the new Tide Pods the smell is great, no fuss or mess you just pop it in and is done the only reason I did not give it 5 stars is the price, I don't think I could afford this product but if I did I would not hesitate on buying it :)
I bought these in hopes they would eliminate a lot of laundry liquid mess. They did! Fantastic and I love the way my clothes look and smell. As a wife and mother of four grown boys, laundry can get pretty smelly. It is so easy, even they can do it!
This is a great product, so much easier than having to measure and cleans the clothes just as well, if not better, than the liquid!
I bought the pods because I liked the idea of not measuring and no big containers to recycle.... I have a 15 year old dog....he injured his nose...blood everywhere, in our haste to clean him up I grabbed our white towels...my husband, trying to help threw all the bloody towels and dog bedding into the wash with 1 pod. Then into the dryer. Guess what, not a drop of blood on anything...,for real! A week later and he still opens the wound, but no problem, into the wash with 1 pod, everything comes out sparkling clean, no pretreating. Love these thing!
I didn't find anything special about the detergent. My clothes smelled great, but I haven't found that they're any brighter or less stained. I'll probably stick to my regular liquid detergent.
Loved the ease of use. I loved how good my laundry smelled after I used it.Would be a great product to use in a public laundry facility.
Loved this product, cleaned perfectly, I am not in love with the scent. I love the Tide original scent I wish this product had that scent
Got the free sample on wash day. Used it with a med size load of light color clothes. Did ok, husbands shirts still had light yellow pit stains. Looks like what my other detergent does. So would not buy it unless cost less. Did not find it easier to use with front load washer, still had to use own softener. Rewashed shirts with reg detergent and stain remover applied to stain and most of it came out.
I loved the tide pod. We took a bag with us on vacation. It was so easy and convenient to use. The scent was great and it cleaned everything perfectly.
Noticed spots on my teen son's jacket. He said they'd been there for a long time. I decided to try Tide Pod sample on the jacket without pre-treating. I washed it in warm water along with his jeans. The jacket came out of the wash with the spots gone and the load had no fading. Had a really nice light fragrance when I put my nose up to the jacket collar. Not overpowering. Two Thumbs up for Tide Pods!!
Tried sample size bought at local grocery store. Dropped in the wash and was impressed with how clean everything was with such a small amount of detergent. Ease of use was a plus as well. Thanks Tide.
Tide cleans my clothes beautifully. This product is amazing in that it's all in one, and is better for the environment--less packaging, awesome results.
Popped in washer, set warm/warm, washed bed linens. No fading, fresh, clean, best of all no irritation when used.
i got a free sample in the mail about a week ago and i was so excited i tried it on my next load of clothes. it worked great. my clothes came clean even in cold water. i do wish it left a stronger scent behind on the clothes but i really like my clothes to smell like laundry detergent. i use downy unstopables so laundry detergent alone wouldn't be enough scent for me anyway.
I recieved a sample in mail and when I used it, it made my clothes smell so good. I would definitely recommend this product to friends, family and all to atleast give it a try. Thank you Tide for giving me the chance to try it out before I buy.
I just received my sample today and I used it right away. I liked the fact that it was so easy to use, simple, quick, clean and no measuring equaling no mess. I think this is a great idea and only have one suggestion. If you don't already have one, please make one that also includes a fabric softener. One less bottle for me to have in my laundry room -- I love the convenience of an all in one especially when my space is being compromised. Thank you for the free sample and for the opportunity to be one of the first to try it out as well as offer feedback. Regards, Mickmack
I liked not having to pour or measure anything. Just pop it in the washer and add the laundry. I was afraid it might not dissolve well but it worked great. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is because of the fragrance. It was a little strong for us. Lavender/vanilla would be great or something citrus would be nice.
I got a free sample and used it today. So easy to use. No mess. Great smell. My towels are fresh and clean.
I had a horrid plumbing issue and had a full load of laundry that was NASTY! After lugging the soaking wet load to the washer, I popped in the tide pod sample that I received. Now I realized that this was setting high expectations for a product that I was testing but the results were amazing. Shoes, towels, clothes all came out clean and smelling fresh. No hassle with pouring in the soap and hoping I had enough for that disgusting load, great stuff! I give the tide pods an A, easy.
Love this new Tide and my clothes smelled great!Will look for them in the store and will buy! Thanks for the freebie,loved it.
I am so excited about this product because of its simplicity! We all know Tide is great at cleaning clothes. Now they have improved on a completely different level. I LOVE how quick and easy this product is. No more pouring, or sticky messes for this mom. Tide Pods are the ONLY way to go. Thank you Tide!
I used this with cold water. The washer was about half full of water before I added clothes and the pod was not dissolving. It barely made any suds. After a few minutes of washing I noticed no suds but the water was a misty cloudy color. The clothes seemed to come out smelling fresh, but it not dissolving properly and turning the water into a cloudy color turns me off. I don't want bleached clothes.
I returned to Tide when i saw the new product format. Im sure glad i did, Super results!
Loved the ease of use and the clothes came out looking great. I am going out to buy some tomorrow.
I must say I was hesitant when I received my Tide Pods sample and saw how tiny it was. Tide packed a lot of power into these pods. I call 'em Power Pods. I love the simplicity of them. Just drop one in the load and go. No mess and they look good. The best part of all is there is no measuring! I washed my bed sheets with my sample and the sheets look and feel wonderful. Better than the liquid version I normally use, don't know, but I like their ease of use. Detergent, stain remover and brightener in one. I want to buy these now. It doesn't get any better.
I loved the new Tide Pods! I used one in a hot water cycle for a load of towels and I must say it worked great! I have a high efficiency washing machine and had no problems with the pod, which was excellent. The towels came out smelling very fresh also. I would definitely use this product again though not exclusively. I would still buy the Tide liquid detergent for smaller loads that I wouldn't need an entire pod for.
Tide pods are a wonderful concept. just about anyone can use these. great for teaching your kids how to do laundry!
As a disclaimer, I live in a city with great naturally soft water, and most detergents work with little difficulty here. I also used liquid Downy fabric softener with this load. I received a free sample of Tide Pods and used them with cold water in my front loading HE washer to launder deep purple sheets. Not only did it remove some greasy spots left behind from hand lotion, it rinsed the hair oils and odor out of the pillowcases. The sheets were soft and clean smelling. I'm glad I let my 9-year old read the instructions though; she was the one that pointed out that in front loading washers, the pod should be tossed in the drum, not left in the soap dispenser to dissolve.
Easy to use, and so convenient! it is also a space saver - I love it!
I loved the smell of the laundry once it was washed. It is nice and true in color, and very soft. Will be buying the full sized product.
I received my Tide Pod in the mail today and decided to use it right away. I was amazed at how bright my color clothes looked as they came out of the washer!! Can't wait to try on my whites!
Loved the sample. Worked great in my old top loader. Wish the sample came with a coupon because they're just way to expensive for me to use on a regular basis. Also I'd like to suggest you come out with large refill bags because I find it a waste to buy a large tub every time because it's by far the best value. Still feel like I'm wasting plastic.
Love how u just drop and go no messy boxes or bottles and love the scent too!
really easy-just drop it in. I was a little nervous at first as I was afraid it would not dissolve but worked as expected. Plus smelled really good. It would be great it you could combine this with a fabric softener so you only had to use one product.
Love the concept, love the convenience. These work great and are very easy to use. However, there was an odd scent afterwards. A dryer sheet will fix it, though.
I had a stain in my favorite skirt, you know, the one that fit just right? Well I had tried everything to get rid of it to no avail. I received a free sample of Tide Pods and told myself if this works I'm gonna buy it, not only did I put my skirt in, but I put in every piece of clothing I owned that had a stain in as well. I was skeptical to say the least, but to my surprise and joy every single piece came out stain free and the smell is amazing. Tide you have a new customer I was trying to save money by buying what was cheap and it ruined half my wardrobe. My husband is excited too, now I don't have to spend money to replace all that was not wearable before. Thank you so much Tide for saving my wardrobe.
I love the new tide pods. What an awesome product.. Works amazing, smells great and will be a huge space saver. Tide pods Rock!!!
What a great product and concept. Made my families clothes look and feel great. No hassle, No mess, and 1 pod = 1load of laundry. This will save us time and money in the future. Also, it's easy for our college bound son to do his laundry without any worry. I am very happy with this product.
I like Tide pods; so easy to use and no measuring. Wish I could get a few more to try on different wash loads.
I do not think my white wash cloths came out as white. I did not add any type of booster like Clorox 2 that I usually use.
I USUALLY WASH WHITE CLOTHES LAST SO I DECIDED TO USE THE POD AND NO BLEACH. I WAS SUPER SATISFIED WITH THE RESULTS. THE CLOTHES WERE BRIGHT, CLEAN, STAIN FREE AND SMELLED WONDERFUL ! HOW EASY. I AM CHANGING MY SHOPPING LIST TODAY. THANKS TIDE.
I washed a load of floor cleaning cloths with my sample. I figured since I had a sample why not try it. It did a super job. Cloths are clean, smell fresh and best of all, I didn't have to measure or pour my detergent. No more detergent on my floor. I also don't have to wonder if I have used enough detergent to get my load clean. This will save me money in the long run.
The first thing that I was struck by when I took the pod out of the package was the smell. The smell with this product was very strong. I wouldn't buy it unless Tide offered a scent-free version. The pod was also sticky, and left the scent all over my hands. I was expecting something akin to a dishwasher pod, but this is far less durable. I wouldn't toss this into a laundry basket. The pods do work well, though. The packet completely dissolved, and cleaned a pretty large load of clothes.
I would not recommend it my whole load was ruined with more stains than it had b4 it had when I put the load in.
LG front load, new in 2010. I have washed over 30 loads - there are no soap suds in the window, clothes are not nearly as clean as using the tide liquid that I have always used in the past. Stains do not come out, odor is not pleasant (not unpleasant, but not fresh). I have already purchased ordinary tide liquid, because I know it works, these pods look clean/nice/efficient, but they are not very good in my machine.
The new Tide Pods are handy, but with all those sections, I expected one to contain fabric softener. Whether I buy them or not depends on the per wash price of the Pods vs Tide liquid.
Like all "pod" products we were not certain we were going to like Tide Pods, but we were pleasantly surprised. The scent was nice and the no measuring perk was actually really handy. I was worried about my skin allergies, but I did not have any reactions at all! The only drawback is the cost. We can buy our normal Tide for $25 (146 loads) at Sam's Club, but this costs $19 and only does 90 loads. If this were the same cost we would switch in an instant!
I got the free sample in the mail and used it the same day, that I got it. I used it on some really dirt things. It took everything out and smells great. I would buy it and tell a friend. Fast with no spills, great for me on the go washing.
I love the entire concept of the new TIDE pods! TIDE pods are a very innovative product that are simple, and quick to use regardless of what water temperature you choose to wash your clothing items in. I enjoyed making my first Tide Pod purchase in the store and finding out that they come in a variety of scents! While I was deciding which scent to buy, several other customers were debating if they should try this wonderful new innovation, in which I told them look at it this way: with liquid or powder detergent it is human instinct to overpour/fill/use...with the pods; Tide takes the guess work out of the equation and you know you will at least get the amount of loads the packaging states. Everyone in the area at the time picked up a package of the pods to purchase. Thanks TIDE for producing another product that I am confident in recommending to others! Sincerely, A loyal TIDE customer!
They work great. Clothes come out fresh and clean. I'm using them in a Samsung front loader without any problems.
I love that I don't have to measure and have a mess! I loved the smell and how fresh my clothes smelled! I must admit that after using these I must might have to start buying them. I have always bought cheap detergent, but the convenience of the pods is priceless!
I purchased them when they were released and I love how clean they get my clothes! They are also very convenient and easy to use!!! And I love the Mystic Forest!!!
I received my sample just as I had run out of my regular detergent and 1 load of laundry to go. Rather than rush out to get detergent, I popped the pod in my washer and I must say, I'm impressed! It did a great job cleaning and brightening my teenage children's laundry. Thanks Tide!
I loved the new Tide Pod...it smelled wonderfully fresh! Thank you for the free sample.
I tried the pods in ocean breeze. A really grungy pair of my husbands underwear got washed with the towels. They hadn't been worn in a long time, were clean but had yellowed. When I got the towels out to put in the dryer, the underwear were discovered to be white! I was so amazed by this that I went out and bought a small bag of pods. Within a few days, we had gone through that and bought another small bag. Well, we ended up buying the JUG! Wal-Mart had it for 14.94. I also bought a bag of tide pods for my mother in law. She also has fallen in love with them. They are just amazing at how clean they get everything. I have been telling everyone how great they are. I hope you keep making them.
I received a free sample of the Tide Pods Detergent and would like to say this is a great product. I would highly recommend it. My clothes came out clean and bright and all it took was placing a pod in the wash, no messy measuring in the cap. The detergent dissolved quickly as advertised and I would gladly use this product again.
The pod made it fun for my 2 children and I to do the wash. The clothes smelled good, and felt softer and fluffy.
When I opened the package of Ocean Mist--- It smelt like New Haven,CT near the shore line--- which is not a pleasant smell... So I was afraid to add it to my laundry. I then decided to get one of the bottle of tide detergents with the sample pack of spring meadow and I opened that one up and it also smelt strong and an unpleasant smell... However I braved it on some of my less important clothes hoping that it was just the fact that it was so concentrated, and tossed it in. It came out smelling Okay (not like the way I like with either Tide with Downy April Fresh or Tide Clean Breeze or dare I say it Gain Original although it is also a P&G brand had to throw it in there because its cheaper than Tide and does just about as good of a job and I love the smell too.) However--- for those who make a mess with powder and liquid detergents like my parents and my sister. (liquid can leak all over the side of the bottle and powder and liquid both can be split then you waste product) Toss it in and no product waste and no mess. Good overall idea--- however I personally do not like the smell
I love Tide Pods, it was so easy to use and my clothing smelled awesome! I use a H. E. washer and was kind of hesitant to put the Pod in the washer as the directions specified...but it was great! My clothes came out clean, no residue was left in the washer and clothes did appear brighter. All in all, a great product though a little pricey compared to competitors products.
I bought the new tide pods today ( March 20, 2012) at my local store. I like tide's products and I must say this one is one of my new FAVORITES besides Tide Original Scent washing liquid. Smells GREAT when washing and after drying, my clothes look great and it actually works in cold water. My clothes even came out of the dryer soft. (no fabric softer needed). Great buy..and a MUST ry. Yours Truly, A TIDE MOM of TWO
Very disappointed. Bought large container at bj's and after first use in front loading washer the pod did not dissolve. Used hot water too. The pod actually stuck to piece of clothing which had to be cut out. Article of clothing destroyed. Now I am stuck with giant size of pods which I refuse to use again and ruined shirt. Not happy!
The pod feels soft and squishy. I think that is its secret for getting out everything that is ishy.
I tried the pod the day I received it and I was amazed at how great a job it did on the smelly clothes! With three children, our clothes are smelly and often full of dirt and mud, and this pod did a super job of getting everything clean and smelling great! What a great idea! AND it works in my front loader washer!
Tide Pods Detergent works well except for the fact that the smell is too strong. The clothes came out clean but hopefully, it will be produced without any fragrance.
Like the convenience of not having to measure and my clothes come out a lot cleaner and colors a brighter will tell all my friends to try it. will by more.
Tide Pods are easy to use - no measuring and no clean-up!
I like the ease of use, I liked the scent. I wish now I had waited to try it until I had some stains for it to work on! All in all, it's a great idea!
Even though some may feel Tide Pods is a revolutionary new laundry detergent, it really isn't. To be sure, the Pod concept and design is new in and of itself, but a laundry detergent in a compact, self contained form is not. Back in the 1960's, there were detergent tablets, such as "Salvo" and "Action" bleach. They didn't stay on the market very long, or that is what I remember. Even 10 years ago, P&G introduced, then quickly pulled "Tide Rapid Action Tablets." So even though the cleaning ability of "Pods" is consistent with most other P&G detergents (which is my universal choice) I can not say with certainty that this is a fantastic, revolutionary product that has exceptional cleaning prowess. What I can say is that Tide Pods is a fad, and will not have staying power.
I love Tide. I've been a fan for years so when Tide came out with the new Pods I was skeptical to say the least. I wondered how Tide could possibly improve upon a perfect product and was prepared to be disappointed. I thought it was just a gimmick but boy was I pleasantly surprised! I LOVE,LOVE,LOVE the Tide pods. They are so easy to use, no lifting a heavy jug or worrying about spills or measuring wrong. Plus no having to add anything extra, everything you need is right there in the Pod. I've never had to pre-treat a stain when using Tide but for those who think they need to, no worries! Its all in the Pod. My laundry is looking better than ever! I'm telling all my friends and family about the Tide Pods. Thank-you Tide!
LOVED this product -- left my clothes feeling soft and the scent was fantastic. I have noticed a dramatic reduction in static with this load... great product.
I liked the product but I felt it was very per-fumy, when I opened the washing machine lid I was overwhelmed. Although, I like my clothes to have some scent I felt it was over powering. I don't know how well it cleaned none of the clothes were very dirty. I also feel it is quite expensive.
It was really easy and convenient with no measuring, but didn't notice any overall different in cleaning/fabric softening ability with regular tide. Due to regular Tide generally being cheaper, I will most likely stick to using that. I could see where this product could be really handy for elderly with arthritis or maybe mentally handicapped or blind.
Didn't have to measure goopy detergent! Works great! I also will know when I need to buy more/how many loads of laundry I can do with what is in the bag. LOVE IT!!
Received a free sample at Sam's Club. This is a great product. I liked the no mess and no spill when using this product.
I had to add more of my regular detergent and it still did not get out the stains from the deodorant in my husband's undershirts.
I was surprised how bright my white clothes were by using just 1 pod.
I wasn't sure how the Tide Pod would work in my front-loading HE washer, even though it says on the package that it works in those machines. I was afraid of too much suds, since I couldn't measure it out. But it worked fine. My clothes seemed to come out just as clean and bright, if not even a little brighter, without a lot of leftover suds, which is often a problem even with appropriate measuring. And it was certainly easy to use! Thank you for coming up with a really neat product!
I love this product. no measuring no mess just toss and wash. These are the best!!
Love everything about this product. Especially the ease of use. I love not having to pickup and pour the normal containers. Also, love the smell.
I washed 2 loads of laundry, that was exactly the same. I washed one in Tide with bleach and the other one with Tide Pods I received in the mail. I found no difference between the 2 loads. The load washed with the pods did not come out as clean as the other load washed in Tide with bleach. I found neither load to brighter than the other either.
I really like these new tide pods; they're convenient and smell amazing. I had an ink stain on my favorite shirt and it washed out clean. I'm pretty impressed. Cheers.
I had no messy detergent cap to rinse with the tide pod, and the clothes came out smelling clean and fresh! The tide pods are a quick easy way to make sure you are getting enough of the right things in your washer to make sure your clothes come out clean and fresh.
I just bought a washer that required HE detergent and have been confused about what brighteners and softeners I could use. Well, the New Tide Pods have made my life so easy! I don't have to worry whether I can use this or that. I am sold and will use Pods from now on.
I was excited to try out the new tide pod. I used it on a load of sheets. due to the fact i was not completely sure how large of a load the pod was measured out for. The sheets came out clean and smelling clean. However I did notice on my front door washer on the rubber drum was the left over residue of the plastic cover of the pod. I used the warm cold cycle so it should of dissolved completely. Maybe you should look into that. overall I was completely satisfied but the only thing is these pods are made for regular size loads not large loads... that may be a weak spot with these pods.
I have arthritis so handling a bottle of Tide is a little difficult. The Tide Pods are great - just toss one in. I used my sample for towels and they came out very nicely - with minimum suds (I have a top loader).
love the idea that it is all in one! smelled great even after coming out of the drier. got my husband's work clothes clean.
Loved the easy packaging! I didn't spill powdered detergent as I sometimes do (wasteful). Further, I didn't need to use a Bounce fabric softener in the dryer, making this product economical as well as all-encompassing.
I loved this little pod, It so easy to use and a very smart buy, I'm going to share this with all my Facebook friends...THANKS TIDE
loved how well it washed my clothes, got stains out and left a nice scent on my clothes loved loved it.
So easy to use and the laundry comes out smelling great! No more lifting heavy bottles of detergent to pour! Love this product!!
I love powdered Tide and loved the hard Tide cube that used to be available maybe 6 (?) years ago so when I got the new pod in the mail I was eager to try it. I have to say I like it not love it. It reminds me of the pods I use for my dishwasher but when I threw it into my washer I was worried it wouldn't dissolve because it didn't at first. Finally, tired of waiting I threw in my clothes. They came out clean and smelled great and to my relief there was no sticky pod stuck to my clothes! It is easy to use but I still love my powder and would love to see the hard cube brought back.
So this little thing is going to clean a load of extra dirty clothes?? Hmm we'll see. I used a load of clothes that were from working outside-sweaty/extra filthy. Wow! They came out smelling great-clean and the colors popped. I threw in a black&white shirt and the white sections looked better than new and the black parts looked brighter. Ok Tide I'm a new fan.
I absolutely LOVE your new pods! My laundry came out clean and bright! The convenience can't be beat! Thanks for yet another great product Tide!
The pod is easy - no measuring and no mess. The clothes were clean, which I would expect from any Tide product. I am concerned as to how they will hold up in FL humidity.
I love these! I wish they came in a variety pack. I've found my new favorite detergent.
I really loved the concept when I first read about it and liked the convenience of it all but really can not bring myself to pay $8-10 for 40 loads of laundry. I would probably buy them if they were cheaper but until that point it is the cheap store brand for me.
How nice to pop a pod in the wash without lugging a heavy bottle of soap downstairs each time! It dissolved quickly, and didn't stain clothes.Wash came out clean, smelled good, and no static. I love these pods!
Since I must go down 2 flights of stairs to do laundry, this was so easy to carry down. So convenient to use and of course I love how Tide does the laundry. I just hope more coupons come out or keep the price reasonable. I'm on SS benefits and have to watch pennies.
The new Tide Pod is a great idea because now there is no measuring or dripping bottles on the washing machine. What could be easier than popping a pod into the drum??
I found the new Tide Pod quick and easy to use, no mess, no measuring just pop it in the washer. Clothes came out clean and smelling fresh but not over powering.
I received a sample in the mail and I also went to the store and bought myself an 18 pack because I was excited to try it out. The sample pack didn't smell but the 18 pack smelled like a bad perm. I think its mostly the exterior that smells. I am disappointed because the sample worked so well.
I grabbed these by mistake. I thought they were for the dishwasher, I figured, may as well give 'em a try (in the laundry) I'm usually skeptical about new consumer products, but I was impressed by the results,especially the whites.. Also, no more hefting heavy detergent bottles. It's a winner!
The Tide Pod which I received in the mail provided a quick solution to washing a load of laundry on my first morning off. I work permanent nights, 12 hrs shifts, so my first morning off is usually tough to get started on chores. But with the Tide Pod, I was able to get laundry started quickly and without any detergent mess. Also, as an added bonus, the load of clothes that I had washed with the Tide Pod came out smelling fresh. Thank You Tide!!
I have one of these pods going in my front loader machine right now. The whole house smells like perfume and it's not pleasant! This one is Mystic Forest. Why don't they make a choice of the original scent? I've always used that in the liquid and it is great if a little messy. I wanted to try the new Pods, but will definitely go back to the old standby with original scent that doesn't smell up the entire house!
Loved the Pod! I thought it smelled great and got my clothes nice & clean. Even though I'm a grown adult, I still feel like a novice when it comes to laundry -- Pods are helpful because they take all the guesswork out of my usual questions (how much detergent do i use? Should I add stain fighters? etc.). Can't wait to get more.
I rushed to the store to but the Tide pods. I went washing right after I purchased them. I was skeptical that my load would not wash properly by one Pod so I put two pods in the washer machine. I notice that there was no sud/foam build up in the water from the pods and when I got the clothes out the washer they did not smell like they were washed with tide detergent. I will admit the clothes did not have a bad odor but I did not smell tide in my clothes. I feel they need to make these pods more concentrated and maybe bigger and reccommend more than one pod for the average wash.
You are sure to get the right amount each time. No dripping mess or powders that don't dissolve completely. Same great Tide product.
I love the concept but very concerned about how it will affect my new front load washer in the future. My washer actually has a drawer you pull out to put in the detergent and if you don't put anything there at all I don't know if it will eventually hurt my washer.
The new Tide Pods are so easy to use, no measuring needed!
I liked the ease of using the pod, but I won't use it again unless the pods come unscented. I buy unscented liquid Tide and would like the Pods to come unscented too.
Loved how easy it was, just throw in a pod, and the load is ready to go! No measuring, no drippy bottles! Worked great in my very old washer....was quite impressed! Clothes smelled fresh and looked brighter :)!
my favorite part is the convenience. I only use tide products so was anxious to try the pod. worked great. I would definitely purchase the pod again
I love that this is in it's own little pouch. Just drop it in and bingo your done. The one thing I found was that maybe it had a little too much soap in it. The suds had come up from our drain making me think maybe it was a bit too much soap. Other than I love this product.
new tide pods detergent are a great idea,laundry washing simplified .
I love these! So easy to use,no measuring just toss in and forget. And my clothes came out so clean! I won't buy anything else.
I'm rewashing with regular liquid Tide the load of whites that I used the free sample on. It took over 4 minutes for the 'pod' to dissolve in warm water. Nothing was clean. Very disappointing.
I found it to be no better at stain removal than other things I have tried. Also, would have preferred something with no perfumes, especially now during allergy season. It is convenient but not something I will probably ever purchase.
I love this I received it the other day and I washed my clothes.The clothes came out so clean and so so soft.And the smell was so fresh and clean.I love these I would be buying these for now on.Great product tide.Thanks for always having great stuff to make your clothes clean.
I really liked the the new Tide pods. So easy and convenient. My clothes came out clean and fresh! I would buy it again.
I received a sample in the mail and I was skeptical at first, but after my laundry was done I was totally surprised at how much it brightened my clothes. I am always on the go and these little pods make it easy to just toss it in load clothes and done. I will definitely buy them. One thing I would recommend is that you make some with the original scent Tide, the new scents are ok, but I prefer the good old scent of Tide. Keep making these they are great!
I have an H.E. washing machine and didn't think that the pods would work as well as a top loader. But they worked great! No pouring no fuss. The packets dissolved in cold water and left my clothes clean and smelling fresh! I just wish they were a little less expensive.
A great product! So easy and convenient to use and so easy to store.
I like the way the pods have been working until now. I was going to buy more after the case I bought from Sam's Club was gone, but I went to do laundry today and all the pods were sticking together and have starting busting. I know it's been in the 70's this week, but the pods should hold up a little better than that. So I've basically lost all my detergent and it was pricey too. Totally disappointed and won't be buying anymore Tide Pods.
I got a tide pods sample by mail. I tried the product, and love it. The only thing is I was disappointed that there was no coupon included with the sample. Coupons included in samples give the consumer more incentive to go buy the product.
Love these pods. Clothes came out so bright and clean. So easy to use.Much better than liquids.
Can't get any easier then just toss in and go, no muss, no fuss. I liked the smell of the pod as well. Clothes came out just as clean as if I had used my usual Tide liquid.
Love it! How nice to not be measuring everything. Just toss it in and away you go. Great product.
I used the PODS on a load of my kids' clothing. Did a great job handling the food stains on my self-feeding toddler's shirts. These will be a great convenience for a trips to the beach as we can bring a couple PODS in a baggie and not worry about lugging a larger jug.
I was excited to try the pod but as I was taking clothes from the washer after the cycle - I noticed some of them had undissolved soap on them. They had to be re-rinsed. I've never experienced this with liquid detergent
I fully embrace the concept of pods & pacs and quickly rushed to market to buy & try the new products. Unfortunately, with a HE washer, I'm discovering that the pods & pacs are not fully dissolved & rinsed away when the cycle ends. These are probably fantastic on long wash loads that use more water, but for short cycles, I am re-washing the load to dissolve the remaining residue. Maybe specially formulated HE pacs & pods would show improvement or mini pods for smaller loads.
When I used the sample of Tide Pod, I included a pair of shorts that had baby spit-up on them. When I took them out, the spit-up was still there! Not just a stain, but the actual spit-up! I was able to wipe it off the shorts with damp rag AFTER I washed them with the Tide Pod. I will say my clothes came out smelling nice, but I have no faith that they are actually clean. I would never purchase this product.
My husband and I purchased front loader washer and dryer set about a year ago. I wasn't fond of the small drawer and compartments you had to try and get all your different products in. The Tide Pod changed all this. Toss in the washer drum and it's done. No more dripping bottles of detergent. No more trying to get that small drawer shut before the water splashed in. The Pods are a huge step forward in laundry care. Thank you Tide.
I received my sample yesterday and was very excited about trying the pods. It was so easy to use just drop it into the washer and that is it. It was so nice not to have the little drops of laundry soap. You know the ones you get when you are measuring the amount of detergent. I was nicely surprised that it cleaned my cloths so well. I could go as far as to say that it cleaned as well if not better than most laundry soaps. I will be telling all my family and friends about this exciting new Product (Pods) from Tide. Thanks so much for the chance to try the pods out. Love It!!
My experience with new unique Tide pods is most pleasurable.....No more messy and sometimes large and heavy boxes and bottles squeezed into my laundry cabinet. No more spills and waste when measuring... just simply drop a pod into the wash machine!
I am a long time user and advocate of liquid Tide and believe it cleans the best. I have a front loader HE machine which is efficient and received my sample and was excited to give the pod a try. Oh my gosh, as we speak I am doing a white load in hot water/steam. My entire drum is a mass of suds, you can not see any clothes for all the suds. My machine is warning me to use HE detergent and attempting to remove the suds. I have never had this happen w/ the liquid, I followed instructions, threw the pod in and then the clothes then started my machine. I have no doubt the clothes will be clean however.
I am an on the go person who runs home throws a load of laundry in & out the door again. It makes is much easier I can just throw a pod in & start the washer and out the door again. I love it
I received a free sample of Tide Pods in the mail. It came in a neat package that was like opening a washing machine. The pod itself is a good size and easy to use. I tossed it in with my laundry and there were bubbles within 30 - 45 seconds (I have a basic top loading machine). I had a few articles that had some staining, so the pod was being put to the test. Overall it exceeded my expectations and lifted all of the stains off my items. I was very pleased with the cleaning performance. My only strike against these pods is the scent. It is very perfume-y smelling and the scent is strong. It lingered even after I ran the load through the dryer with a dryer sheet. For some people that would be a plus, but I did not the like perfume-y scent at all. I would have preferred for it to smell more like regular Tide. I give Tide Pods 4 out of 5 stars.
I had a few free samples from the mail and ones I received from buying other tide products in stores. These pods were just ok. They did not dissolve quickly in cold water. I suppose these could be great for college students or those who go to laundry mats. But for me its really not that hard to pour a cap full of tide...lol people seem to be acting like that is a difficult task to do. Plus these pods are way over priced. Unless they go on clearance AND I have a coupon I wont be buying these. Ill stick to just buying regular old liquid tide when it goes on sale.
Tide Pods were so easy to use, and work so well! I can't imagine ever using anything else.
I was really excited to get this sample in the mail (especially since the package was so colorful!). Tide Pods made my clothes smell SO good and I loved that I only had to throw one pod in - no measuring or mess with laundry detergent. I will definitely be using this product again!
Hi. Just did a load of laundry using your new PODS and it is wonderful just like all your detergents that I've been using for over 40 years. Can't wait to go out and buy some. Thanks, Margie
I was very skeptical about using one little pod to do a load of laundry, but not only did my clothes come out smelling great, but it also came out clean!
The concept is great, obviously removes the messy measuring and pouring of liquid detergent. Tide is awesome as always! Hope that this packaging is offered in Free & Clear as my kids struggle with sensitive skin and I'd be more likely to buy this if it were fragrance and dye free. I will also be more likely to purchase it if the pricing is comparable to liquid detergent. I am just too mindful of budget to pick convenience over price.
I've been a Tide user for a number of years. This product was as easy and mess-free to use as expected. I just popped it into the machine, with my clothing, and closed the door. An obvious shortfall with this product is the need to still have to add fabric softener to the washer. I know it would be a challenge to integrate fabric softener into a product like this, perhaps the folks at Tide can find a solution. As far as my clothes, they came out Tide clean.
I was really looking forward to the new pods but my sample arrived in mail squished and unable to use :(. I would like another sample so I can try these awesome little pods
I received my free sample today. I think that this would be a great product for anybody that has to haul their laundry to get it washed (like some people in apartments, college students in dorms, etc.) but I don't know if I would really use this. It's no big deal to me to measure it out - my soap and everything is right next to my machine. For the price - I, personally, may be better off not using these and sticking to what I currently do. However, if the price came down a bit or if there were some great coupons out for this, I would definitely buy this - I really do like the way they worked!
I had saved a particularly brutalized t-shirt my 6 year old had put through the rigors of family gardening day to try my Tide Pods sample on. Not only did the red clay, grass stains and minor boo boo blood come out, but the convenience of just dropping the pod in was awesome. I'm looking forward to the ease of using Tide Pods on our family vacations this summer too! Job well done Tide!
They are awesome! I bought a front loader set about a 3 years ago thinking it would work better than a top loader. (NOT) I have a family of 5 and a whole bunch of smelly towels after the wash, they would smell sower. I did everything. Different detergents / all the tide products and fabric softeners. I found we were way more portions per load to get them to smell good, which cost more, but it also gummed up the dispenser in the washer. I wanted to through the washer out and find an “old school” top loader. But from the very first time I tried the Pods “By the directions” and It worked! After a few washes the smelly towels are turning out great! Not to mention, the washer is cleaner and smells great as well. Also I am getting the number of washes that it says on the container, Yayy saving more money for “Gas” :) Thanks for the “Pods” Tide.
Dissolved very fast and Ive never seen my clothes as bright as they are! Thank you!
Smelled great, worked great, easy to use. Worked on my 'regular', top load, clothes washer with a full load in it. I'm planning on buying.
I used my free sample in a medium sized load of light-colored clothes. It worked really well. The load came out brighter than I expected. All clothes were clean and smelled great. I would recommend this product. I'm not sure of the price, but I would buy this product if it is priced close to or slightly more than my current detergent.
They are efficient when it comes to cost and consumption. Also, they are mess-free!!! I'm totally in love with these little things, and I will most definitely recommend them to friends and family. Have already recommended them to my facebook friends! Lol! :-)
I tossed it in with my sheets. It dissolved quickly in the wash and I loved the scent. Thanks! Will definitely use this product again!
I received a free sample in the mail i used it on a load of laundry. it cleaned good but the fragrance was to strong when i removed the clothes to put them in the dryer. If the fragrance wasn't that strong i would purchase in future.
I love the compactness and that I can just throw it in! Need to make a Tide free version please :)
I was happy to find the pod worked as well as it said it would. Not only are the whites clean, and truly white - not dinghy, but the colors all look like new. They smell fresh, and not perfumed. Thank you, Tide!
I tried the Tide pods thinking that they would be an easy way to do laundry since I wouldn't have to carry a heavy bottle around. Instead the tide pod did not dissolve completely and stuck to my clothes. I washed my clothes a second time in the laundry room in my building and it still didn't come out. I ended up having to take my clothes home and use my heavy duty washer at home, with an extra spin cycle to get it out. One shirt was completely ruined after all this. I would never recommend this product to anyone.
Very convenient and makes clothes smells great! I definitely purchase this product!
I received a free sample of Tide Pods...and I can happily say that I was impressed! The cleaning power is just as good as any other Tide product, but the ease of use is awesome! Just drop in the wash and my family's clothes came out fresh and clean, ad stayed smelling great! These are a very innovative product and I can say that I will now be a loyal customer of Tide Pods! Thanks Tide!!
I was excited to try this product. I have always enjoyed Tide, but I was highly disappointed. The clothes did not come out smelling nicely, they were not soft, and the clothes were full of static cling. I would not recommend this product.
For a guy, it is the best. No measuring, all you have to do is put the pod in the washer. Just get it strait - it's a TIDE POD not an I POD. There is a difference.
Oh my! Tide pods smell awesome! Even my daughter said how great they smell when she went in the garage after I did laundry. Also, they did a great job on cleaning our clothes and were so easy to use.
I recently received a sample of Tide Pods and I love them!!! They are quick and easy, smell wonderful, and definitely cleaned my teenage son's sheets beautifully. Thanks
Thanks so much for the sample. I liked the convenience of just throwing one pod in and not all the measuring, etc.
As far as cleaning goes, this is easy and complete. Will Tide come out with an unscented option? I find the residual scent too strong, not to mention the smell while the laundry is cleaning.
What a pleasure - to just drop the pac into the washer & not have to measure or pour - plus, the "Spring Meadows"TM scent is wonderful! I love it!
We got a sample from Kroger went home used it with a pair of dirty baseball pants. Got everything out of the pants! Went right out and bought a some!
Easy to use and left my clothes with a great smell.
I really like the new pods from tide. You just put it in the washer with your clothes no mess and measuring
I got my free sample in the mail this last weekend. I did a load of laundry. I was so surprised at how bright the colors were;.tired old sweatshirts came back to life. vibrant colors. The load was clean and in cold water. I love Tide pods.
I like to concept of this product. It's like a dishwasher pack, but for the washer. I have an HE washer, so I was worried that it might not work. To my surprise, it worked really well. I used it in a load of towels, it even took the damp, moldy smell out of them.
Just received my sample and absolutely love the packaging!
Just wanted to let you know I was impressed with the smell and the ease. I really like this product, just wish I could afford it.
I was very impress, with results, of cleaning a load of white cloths.
Awesome, Absolutely loved the no poor no spill no mess. This is an awesome product. No more liquid for me only pods.
I received my Tide Pods this weekend. I love it! I live in an apartment community which means I have to carry my laundry baskets to the community laundry room on site down the stairs from my apartment. I love the fact that I didn't have to carry a whole box or bottle of laundry detergent and stain fighter to do one or two loads. I just placed the pod on top of my laundry basket and carried my clothes off to be washed. I was pleased that the fragrance is very pleasant and not strong and it still lingers after the dryer and to when you are ready to wear the clothes. I would love to purchase these pods vs. bottled/boxed laundry detergent for the convenience.
I understand the benefit of a small dry pod that is already perfectly measured. It's a great product for someone who has to do their laundry somewhere other than where they can store their detergent. However, priced at about $10 for 35 loads, it's one of the most expensive per load detergents out there. It cleaned my clothes nicely and smelled lovely, but I'll stick to my usual liquid soap I store in the cabinet right above my washer. Without a serious discount from a coupon, I'm not likely to buy this.
Waste of time and money. I had to rewash some of the clothes. I could tell which clothes were mine and that of my teenage son (sniff test=fail). Had to rewash his. I hope the store will give me a refund :-(
I washed a colorful,bright load of my 11 year old daughter's clothes that looked stained beyond hope. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that the stains were gone and they smelled really good,a very pleasant scent.I would recommend the pods to everyone.
The Tide Pod was so easy to just drop in. I used it on my husband's work clothes, which get very dirty. It had a strong smell, which was good but a little powerful. I liked the pod; it did a good job cleaning my clothes. I'll probably keep using regular Tide liquid, though, because it lasts me longer since I can decide how much I want to use each time.
I love Tide. Super easy to use. Great for taking on trips.
Love the packaging and look of this product.Didn't get a chance to take advantage of the stain remover, but my clothes came out fresh and clean. Really simple and quick way to get a chore done that most of us busy homemakers and moms hate doing. Would love to use Tide Pods again.
I received a free sample of Tide Pods and love it! Fully dissolved and left my clothes smelling wonderful. Thank you so much!
This is a wonderful idea and is sooo easy! I do plenty of laundry and this has been the best solution I have found yet for ease of use. The only thing I wish is that there was a Tide Pod that didn't have dyes/perfumes. My skin is very sensitive and this works great on the boys clothes but I can't use it on mine.
Used the tide pod and it worked just fine. Can't say it's any better then the Tide from the bottle. It saves the step of measuring it out. Honestly I think all and all it's the same fluid in a new package.
There is only one thing bad about them if you get one wet in the bag they all start to Dissolve =[ but over all they are great
Totally changed my idea of laundry, so simple to use.
I was totally surprised at how well the wash turned out and most stains were unmistakably gone, the only one that wasn't was a stubborn tomato stain that had even been pre treated. I would, no will purchase this product and use it.
I loved this product!! I am a stay at home mother and always in a rush to do laundry. There was no mess or measuring, just pop it in and go!
This is the best ever! So easy!! I love anything easy!!
Quick and easy, especially being a new mom! Will buy!
The Pod was very easy to use and worked well. It's nice to be able to just through something in the washer and not have to measure or think now how much should I use for this load.
I loved them super easy no spills and super clean good smelling laundry.
Very weak product. did not get clean or remove stains. Had to wash a second time and went back to ultra tide w/bleach. Wasted time and money at laundromat on the that product. Tide teams needs to increase effectiveness on det/booster.
I thought that the clothes I washed with my Tide Pod sample came out of the washing machine brighter and cleaner smelling. Very good concept, and I will buy more.
Thank you for the sample to give me a chance to try it out. I may not have tried it if it wasn't for the sample. I really love this product. I tried it this morning and noticed how clean and bright my clothes were. I will use it in the future. Thanks PrettyBird
When I did a load of whites with my free sample, a handful of items came out with a yellow swirl on them that I can only describe as looking like a highlighter exploded all over them. It's VERY noticeable and I will be returning to my regular Tide.
I like how convenient it is and how it has 3 products in one!
I used the tide pod on my white socks. I wear my white socks in and out of the house when I am home. Yes, I am worse than your kids. I always pre treat my socks to make sure they stay white. I did not pre treat my socks but I used the Tide Pod. I was gob smacked! My socks are white without spray, spray spray. I will buy this product again.
I Received my free sample in the mail this week, and must say it was great I used it when I sanitized our white load. It was a very nice suprise, QUICK,EASY AND DID A VERY GOOD JOB!
These are great! They fully dissolved in the washer and did not leave behind any of the gel like I thought it might. So easy to use and very portable if you have to go to the laundry mat. My only complaint is the price, which is pretty high in my opinion. All in all great product that I will buy on sale with coupon.
I have used Tide for years. Thought I would try the Pods. The first few loads came out fine. Today, I washed a normal to small load in my front load washer with one pod in warm water. I dried my clothes and when I was folding them, one of my socks looked like glue was on it. I pulled it apart and realized it was the pod casing. It had not dissolved and was on my sock and once I dried it, it melted onto my sock. It came out with some soaking and scrubbing. I have a feeling this will happen to others. Think I'm going to go back to HE liquid. Guess I'm out $10. Your first few times of use might work fine or you might get my result. Gummy glue like substances on your clothes. It did come out from soaking but I don't want to have to rewash my clothes.
I'm pretty sure I received a sample of Tide Pods when I moved into my dorm in college some 7 years ago. Perhaps it was a prototype or maybe even another brand. Either way, I loved the concept and was very sad that they were not available commercially. When I saw a commercial for Tide Pods last week, I was very excited that this awesome idea finally came to fruition! I went to the store yesterday with Tide Pods on my list, but when I arrived at the display, I saw 3 scents, none of which are the original Tide scent. Not only are these not my preferred scent, but I can't even smell them to see how they smell! These scents aren't available in normal liquid packaging so that idea is moot. Long story short: I didn't buy them. Please, Tide, make these in original scent AND give us a way to smell the scents in the store! As for now, I've requested a sample from this site so we'll see what happens. As for now, however, I'm still the sad customer who wants to buy, but can't.
These are a great idea, but smell absolutely DISGUSTING. Makes me think of all those perms I had in the early 90's.I don't think it's the detergents, it's the stuff the pod is made out of, so when you pick it up the smell gets all over your hands. I use fabric softener as well, so after the clothes are dry I can only smell it if I hold something up to my nose and take a hug wiff, but it's still there just a little bit. I'd love to continue using this product (I notoriously over-pour detergent), but unless they fix the stench I won't be buying another pack..
Pleasantly surprised my whites came out brighter than usual. Husband commented he liked the scent. Question: one pod for any size load?
love the concept, not quite sold yet. i have a he washer and after my load of clothes were done, i opened the washer door to find the tide pod shell resting on the base of the rubber door stopper/sealer. it was a messy clump of goo. not giving up on it yet, will have to try another pod to see if it happens again.
I just tried washing a few loads of clothes with the new Tide Pods. The pods did dissolve quickly but I do not have ANY suds in my wash. The Ocean Mist scent is not that appealing. I am really not sure if I will buy again. If they come out with a Tide original scent pod then maybe I may consider buying again. I think that I will just stick with the old liquid version for now.
I tried the free sample of Tide Pods and loved it. My laundry was clean and smelled great. I believe that I will use these on a regular basis. So convenient !
I liked the new Tide Pod sample I received. It was easy to use and the smell was very nice. The pod dissolved completely and left no residue on my clothes, or in the washer or dryer. I would probably buy these again.
Thank you for the free sample. Very interesting product...might even call it "cute". Just popped it in the washer and it did the job. How easy was that, no mess no measuring. Thanks again.
I don't think Tide could come out with anything bad, I loved the pods the only thing is I wish they would come out with something similar to the Purex sheets that have the fabric softner included as well, that would be perfect!
I love how clean my clothes looked especially the fact that I didn't have to use any additional products. It also smelled great and made my house smell like clean fresh air.
After using on white towels, I found a hard blue residue and had to wash them out by hand and rewash in the machine. This was using hot water. I can't imagine how they dissolve in cold water. I am now hesitant to use on dark clothes and not notice the undissolved product, until I'm wearing them. I'll use what's left in the package, but I probably won't buy them again.
I already use Tide products, but when I heard about the free sample of the Pods I knew I had to try them. It really cuts back on using too much detergent, but the Pods still work so great! I used it on my bedding, and having 2 dogs sleeping with me, I knew if it was good it would make it clean. I just finished washing them, and they smell SO fresh! The brightener actually worked too! I LOVE this product and have actually already recommended it to a few people.
"I received my sample today and tried it a few hours later. I would like to say that the Tide Pods did a wonderful job on my wash, and they are also very convenient to use. From now on I will be using the Tide Pods all of the time. I will also be sure to tell all of my family and friends just how wonderful they are. Thank you for sending me your samples."
The great stuff: Cleans very well. (better than regular Tide he) low suds rinses nice. The not so great stuff: It's very funny that the thing I complain most about in detergents, is now a problem in reverse. I always hate the smells of most detergents. WAY too heavy and flowery. NOW with the Pods,(Mystic Forrest) this is not the case and I think they could use MORE smell to them. Clothes come out super clean, but smell a bit sour and after you dry them, it's like 'eeh'. I hope Tide is reading these because I really, really, really hope they are going to come out with the Original scent liquid tide he flavor in these Pods. The other problem is that the pods don't dissolve THAT fast. And almost every time the darn pod gets on the bellow and then sits there. So I have to come back to that machine, stop it. open it up and push the pod off. I've now been putting it in a sock, or wadding a towel up with the pod in the center. Overall, I like them and will continue to buy them for the great cleaning job. Bought some fabric softener to get a better smell. Thanks Tide.
My clothes were beginning to look dingy from using a different brand of detergent. I have now switched to pods and my clothes are cleaner and brighter looking. Thanks Tide!!
I bought a large bag of Pods and did numerous loads of laundry last weekend then noticed that ALL the clothes, towels and blankets have a strong smell like rubbing alcohol. It is horrible. I LOVE Tide Liquid detergent and will stick with that instead. I would recommend you start with a small sample of Pods to see if you have the same experience. Don't waste your time and money like I did :-)
I tried the small pack (16) of this and found it works very well! Idid find some grease spots on darker clothing that was not removed in the wash cycle and washed again adding a clorox pack. I don't like however that in all of the recent manufacturers coupons by Tide, they exclude using it on the pods. I am hoping they start issuing some pod specific coupons considering they are costly!
I love the idea of the pod. My regular grocery store doesn't carry it, though (Food 4 Less). Have to make a special trip to another store to buy it. At any rate, it worked very well; I usually buy liquid Tide. This is far more convenient, and easier for hubby and kids to use if they ever decide to do any laundry. lol
I love using Tide products. I bought the sample at Walmart and have been in love ever since. I have a softball player and tried them on her dirt covered softball pants. They came out clean and smelling fresh! These are so easy. I have a front load washer and I have tried these in cold, warm, and hot water. They dissolved with no problem. I can't wait to buy these for my daughter that's going off to college this Fall!
I used it on a load of towels. They came out soft, and smelling fantastic.
I was sooooo excited to see Tide came out with the pods. I am a bit disappointed int the available scents however that would NOT stop me from using these. I did find that for my family, one pod is not quite enough so I use 1 pod plus about a half a cup of the Tide Sport Febreze (THE BEST EVER!!!!). Hopefully Tide will expand their selection to maybe include the Sport, but if not.... Tide is always the way to go!!!
I received a sample of the Tide Pod at Sam's Club. I tried it and absolutely loved it after using it!!! My whites and colors were clean and bright, and my stains were removed without Pre-treating them! It saved me time, and messes. It's so easy and works wonderfully! I also love how it smells! Days later, and I could still smell the mystic forest scent. :-) I have switched from Gain (which I used to love) to Tide Pods. Good job Tide! I love it!!!
Tried them for the first time. I am a new TIDE customer I love them!!!!
I got auto grease on my jeans and washed them with the Tide pod - nothing else. They came out so clean I had to do a double take. This is a fantastic product!!!!!!!
The new Tide Pods are awesome. I called all my family and friends and told them about this product.
I play a sport, have a part time job in an office and go to class almost every day. I wear 2-3 outfits a day and pile up dirty laundry fast. Since the only space I have for myself is a 10x14 room I don't have much choice but wash frequently. Tide Pods was a gift from the dorm laundry room gods! I don't have haul around 3 heavy jugs of cleaning solution up and down the stairs anymore :) They are a little pricey but for the months that I have a few extra dollars I am definitely splurging on TIDE PODS!
Bought the new Tide Pods today. Not only are they cute (always important). They work great-especially if you have to haul your laundry to laundry room and don't want to lug a container of detergent with you. My laundry smelled and looked lovely and clean and I didn't have to hang around to put in all the products (went to the gym instead). Thanks Tide Pods
I used the new Tide pod yesterday in one load of laundry. The only complaint I have is that it didn't seem to completely dissolve from the laundry compartment. I only use Tide detergent but I will probably continue using the traditional HE liquid detergent. I am also perplexed that the Tide pods are good for both HE and non-HE washing machines. Why is there such an emphasis on using only HE detergent in an HE machine yet the pods works the same in both machines??? That doesn't make any sense to me.
I purchased on sale at a drug store. I like that product is not heavy, compared to the LG liquid containers. Cleans well and scent is ok. It is quicker than measuring liquid. All of my loads using one pod came out nice and clean. No complaints, thanks Tide.
Used the Tide Pod this morning with a load of colored clothes in cold water. Was a bit concerned at first because I like a lot of "suds'! But the clothes are clean and fresh and I would most assuredly purchase this product. (Price does matter though)
I have hated handling liquid bottles, stain removal, and softener ... now simply toss a pod and go!! Saves disposing of plastic bottles, but most advantage it is so much lighter to work with! We have a front load HE washer and had great success!!! Thanks for thinking of your customers!!
The pod is a "cool" idea. Three types of washing liquid packed into one "pod". It was easy to do my laundry. I threw in a normal load. The load was done and then dried. Laundry smelled wonderful. Felt very clean. Stains removed. The brightener brightened light colors and dulled the dark colors. I would not recommend using the pods for anything dark colored. Otherwise, it's a great product.
I was so excited to get to try these new Pods because I love the fresh scent of Tide, and how it lasts on clothes even after the dryer. Well, now my bubble has been busted, my clothes didn't smell like anything. What a downer. While the product did produce clean clothes, I would not spend the extra money to switch to these. I'll keep my regular Tide liquid.
Its another great product by Tide, makes life with kids easy. Love the product keep up the great work at keeping our clothes clean.
I agree with another user, When I was in college back in 2001 I used the tide tablets, I was so heart broken when they were discontinued, I am so happy that tide has come out with the same concept in these pods. You might think they don't dissolve, but they actually dissolve when the wash cycle starts. I only wash in cold water and they work for me. I will only use pods from now on, and will recommend them...
It is about time Tide did this and it is so easy to use and the same cleaning power
I wanted to let you know that I love your new tide pods. It does what you said it does and one pod does a full load of clothes. I will be a loyal customer and buy the pods.
very easy to use especially for the over 65 population.very easy to store for us in senior accommadations,
So convenient, got my wash clean and fresh smelling. Love it!!
Have always used Tide. After losing job hard to keep buying it as it is more expensive BUT, have found others don't work as good so I have had to go back to Tide. Any free or discount coupons would be greatly appreciated. The POD is GREAT and very easy. Thanks
Very nice product. Dissolved even in cold water. My clothes came very clean and nice. It was nice not to have to pour liquid from the heavy plastic bottle that sometimes drips down the side. It would be nice if you could include Downy in the Pod, too. Than I wouldn't have to add separate fabric softener.
This is a wonderful idea and no longer have to lug around heavy detergent bottles. Please make and offer a Free & Gentle version. I would buy more of these if offered in the Free & Gentle version.
While I found the pod to be handy and an effective dirt remover and whitener, the "scent" was overpowering. Even after the clothes came out of the drier I could still smell it.
New Tide Pods make laundry easy enough for me to trust my kids to do it. My clothes come out clean without the work of pretreating them first. I found my new favorite laundy soap! Thank you Tide!
My son (9) has bladder problems that leaves a urine smell on his clothes. Sometimes we have to wash them 2x to get the smell out. ONE POD PACK did the trick and left his clothes smelling GREAT the FIRST time. You have a Tide customer now !!
I'm single and retired. Since I usually wash small loads, I don't see the point of a "one size fits all" tablet. Why would I use as much detergent for a full load as I would for a few tee shirts? At least with regular Tide I can use an amount that is appropriate for each load.
I thought the sample was a good idea. It made my laundry so fresh and clean. No mess no hassle just throw it in the washer an you're done.
Thanks so much for my sample! I love the convenience of these. They have a great smell and clean my wash very well.
Got my sample in the mail and tried it on a load of whites (to see how the "brightener" worked. Everything nice & white & all stains came out. Can't wait to buy it next time!
This product is outstanding... I will be using it for now on!!!
I bought 2 large tubs of Pods. I wash mostly in warm and they work great, especially on my daughters work clothes from papa johns pizza. I do keep a bottle of liquid for small or cold loads. I like that I no longer have to lug a heavy bottle or powder box along with color safe bleach and stain removers. More space in my laundry area. I love Gain detergent and hope they come out with the same product soon.
Tide Pod left bleached out spots on a cardigan and it is now unwearable! Hopefully Tide will reimburse the cost of the cardigan! I must highly recommend that you DO NOT use Tide Pods!! If there was a negative star rating available I would have used it!
IT IS EASY TO USE... I WILL GET 90 WASHES OUT OF THE BOX I PURCHASED AT SAMS.. AND MY PINK SWEATSHIRT IS NOW A PINK AGAIN...
I love them! Now, i want a ring that sticks to inside of machine lid to hold my pods. yall work on the details!
I bought a trial pack of the new Tide Pods, I figured the worst it could do is be terrible, and I am only out $1.00. I will NEVER buy ANY other washing product BUT THESE! These little Pods pack quite a punch!! I washed my dirtiest towels, you know, the ones you use to mop the floors, and wipe the tub, etc. Not only did these little Pods get them EXTREMELY clean, but my wash came out smelling heavenly as well, A double win win!! Thank You TIde for coming out with yet another Fabulous Product! :)
This is a great product. I have always remembered detergent "packs" from when I was a small child called "Salvo" . They were great. No mess, just toss is a packet. I always wondered why they discontinued this concept and I am very glad it is back. Far less storage room needed and no mess from spilled detergent. Thanks Tide! I would never dream of using any other product. There isn't anything Tide cannot get out.
I received 2 sample pods with the normal Tide bottle at our local retailer and decided to try these out on the baby's dirty clothes. The second pod I tried left an unused sticky goo in the baffle of the front loader washer. I don't know if the pod got into the baffle right away or what, but I'll stick to the regular bottle of Tide from here on out.
You have hit the mom where she loves you most, this is the best i have ever seen. i have used the trial packs and this is fantastic. such a easy way to do laundry. bring on the dirty clothes. you guys are top notch..
My husband had a stroke and can not use his right arm, now he is learning how to do things again. I have always used Tide and the pods work just as well with my front load washer, but the pods puts hope in my heart that he will continue to advance and feel useful again. Thank you Tide
The pod does not dissolve when used in cold water.Works well in hot water.
I am so happy this product is finally here!! I accidentally used Tide Boost as a laundry detergent when it first came out. When I realized that Boost was not detergent I thought "why don't they make detergent in pacs like this?" I haven't even used the Pods yet, but hey, they're a Tide product, so 5 Stars!!!
I bought the sample pack... It very easy to use ..I would recommend it.. Cannot wait til it comes out
Just bought out of curiosity and its Right, Clean, and Bright for colors and whites
I'm just wondering if these are the same as the tide tablets that were available years ago. I loved them so much & have been eagerly awaiting a replacement ever since they were discontinued.
Easy to use and the clothes come out clean. No more over sudsing on the front loader!
These little babies are amazing! They are so easy to use and you get the same results as the pourable Tide. Men can use this product, without supervision, on their ladies clothes! :) I will be buying this product when I run out of my Bottle.
The pod left a gooey mess on the drum of my washer. I had to wipe it all out before I could take my clothes out. I am surprised there aren't more people saying this because it seemed to be the remaining part of the pod that didn't break up in the water. I will always use Tide, just not these.
love it love love it. I have used it four times now and think it is great. So much easier to use then the heavy bottle of tide.
I love being able to just drop and go! I'm notorious for forgetting to add detergent or leaving the lid open so this is amazing and so helpful for me! Now just need a smaller version for my little loads!
i live in an apartment this product is great don't have to lug detergent, clorox 2, shout, etc its all in one neat little package just take it plus a downy ball down with the laundry works really well with whites; got all stains out
I think that this product will be bought by people who have small loads
I bought the trail size, and used it. Boy do i wish i could have gotten the free sample. I loved it. Hopefully it is fairly priced because i certainly will purchase it and continue using them. I love tide, my grandmother used it, my mother used it , and now i use it on my family clothes and this new product is great. I hope it is available for purchase soon.
I GOT THE TRIAL PACKAGE OF THREE AT OUR LOCAL WALMART, AND LOVE IT, I EVEN WENT BACK TO WALMART TO GET SOME MORE~! POP AND GO~!
I bought 2 of the trial sizes at my local walmart, considering they were only 97 cents, why not? well i tried them today in my first load and it was gone and the clothes smelled wonderful! They were just as clean as a normal detergent. It doesn't seem like it would work, but it did the job. I would recommend these to anyone. The person who commented and said they are bad, and had no suds, obviously doesn't know that the suds DON'T wash the laundry. But it was worth the buy and my time.
I used the sample that came with my laundry detergent and I loved it. My clothes came out clean and smelled wonderful. Where can I buy more?
I am very excited by the convenience of Tide PODS. When will Tide PODS Detergent be available in a "FREE & Gentle" formula? Having sensitive skin PODS in Gentle&Free formula may be my only option. When will a Gentle & Fee PODS Detergent be available?
Tide Pods are extremely easy to use. There's no measuring involved, just drop one into the washing machine. I could not tell however, if more stains were removed using the pods.
Tide Pods are quite effective. The clothes were cleaned thoroughly cleaned. The pods are easy to use-one tiny package provides everything that your clothes need.
I purchased two sample packs of this product and I love it! It made the clothes smell cleaner, look cleaner and brighter and I can't wait til they are available for purchase!
They are so easy to use. Just drop one into the water, add clothes, and your clothes come out clean and fresh! My son used 2 pods on his load of smelly gym clothes. They came out just as clean and fresh as my whites! The pods will be so convenient to take on vacations. Thanks for such a great new Tide product. A lifelong Tide user
i recieved free sample at my local dollar general.i loved the product it did everything it said it was going to do brighted all my clothes and whitten my husbands dirty wrk socks. cant wait till march 5th when they r avail for purchase.
I recently used my free sample of Tide Pods. I love the convenience of it. It got the dirt stains out of my sons work shirts that nothing else I tried could get out. Can't wait for the pods to be available in stores.
I bought 3 of the sample packs at Wal-Mart and love these little pods. We have 6 people in our house and that equals a lot of laundry. The pods make it so easy to throw in and not have to measure out my detergent. Hurry up and get back on the shelf!!
I bought a trial pack of Pods at my local Walmart and was excited to try them. I tried one in cold water and the Pod didn't dissolve. Not only did my clothes not get clean, I also had to rewash them. Wanting to give the product a second chance I tried another Pod in hot water. Although the Pod did disolve this time, it created no suds and did not clean the second load. I had to rewash this load too. I threw away the last Pod in my trial and went back to my Tide with Bleach Alternative. I love Tide but I do NOT recommend Tide Pods!!!!!!!
This is great, l put one of the pods in the wash, I had some clothes that got stain with chili/ketchup ( love to eat chili dogs) that was a day old stain. When, the wash was finish I went to get the clothes out of the wash the stains was gone, the white dingy tshirt was not dingy no longer. I be will be using the pods from now on, I do not have to spray stain release on the clothes, let them sit for 10 minutes before washing, The pods save time & money for me, that is important in this economy when you live on a fix income.
I received a free sample from Tide. I absolutely loved the results of its use. I have been on the hunt for these precious little "gems". I was able to find a trial size package and scooped it up immediately. I hope to find the Pods on the shelves soon!!! And I love it that they can be used in the "h e" front loading washing machines. Thank you Tide!!!
Get rid of all those extra bottles and get PODS they work FANTASTIC! No mess, no fuss. Now you can get rid of all the Extra bottles of stain remover, brighteners and yes even the Tide bottle, which makes Tide step into the eco-friendly world, NO MORE PLASTIC BOTTLES. Try it TODAY you'll LOVE it. I did, thank you TIDE for once again making my life easier.
When I got the sample of the Pods. I looked at it and wondered if this would really work. My son is away at college, so when I sent the sample to him to use while he was doing his own laundry. He called home to tell me they were the most awesome thing, and it was easy to just toss in the washer, no measuring, and the soap didn't spill in his truck. I just had to let you know, that through out his dorm, I thnk just about everyone uses the Pods' ... Thank you for this product, it must be the little things for 20 year olds to call home to discuss laundry. Thanks again Have a great day, Deanna
I found my sample at wal-mart, and I love them!! this is so easy to use and lives up to the tide name!! My laundry came looking great!!
I used this product and thought it was a wonderful product.
Our clothes have not been clean since we purchased an HE washer, even though we use the Tide HE powder, they do come better with the HE liquid. However, purchased several sample packages of the new PODs at Walmart and clothes are clean once again, even with an HE washer. So glad that Tide came out with the PODs, anxiously awaiting for them to be available in stores, checked back with my local Walmart today, bought the 1 and only 1 trail pkg they had in the store.
Just used my first pod and saw no suds I kept checking back but didn't see any.I am washing dark clothes so I can't tell if worked.
My clothes are important, I expect them to "pop' and be that clean. I didn't feel this happened. I miss the really fresh scent as well.
I loved these so much I cannot wait for these to come out in stores.
Since my husband is semi-retired and I am still working full-time, he is in charge of the laundry. (I do my own work clothes). The laundry is pre-sorted so he does do a good job. I came home the first night that he used them and he met me at the door telling me how much he liked the Tide Pods. I also gave some to my daughter and she also enjoyed them.
Well, I had bought a trial package of 3 Tide Pods from Wal-Mart. My mom saw them, tried one on her work clothes (which is usually full of grease) and she would NOT shutup about the pods! She went ON and ON about how great they worked on her stained clothing! I can't wait until they hit the shelves, and I sure hope you guys put out a coupon to go with the new product!!!
I loved this product, when I first used the pod I thought no way this is going to work it cleans great everything I have come to expect from Tide.
Bought a pack of three at the wal mart grocery store to try. Did a very good job of dissolving completely in the water. Laundry was brighter looking and shadow stains were gone.
I really like the idea of one little pod taking care of all of my laundry needs. The only problem that I had was washing in cold water they didn't seem to dissolve completely. I found a small amount of the granules at the bottom of the tub.
I purchased a bottle of Tide liquid with a free sample of Tide Pods attached to the lid. I tried it today and I am impressed! Love the ease and convenience of no messy measuring or pre-treating. Great job cleaning and awesome scent too. I will definitely be looking to purchase Pods in the future!
The pods are great because is easy for use and clean my cloths. Thanks Tide,
This is the best product that tide has come up with yet. Will definetely buy when the product hits the retail stores WAY TO GO...no more liquid soap messes
smells soooooooo good and it lasts! one walmart didn't even have them and aother had the sample pods for $.99. will definitely buy more once i find them
These new pods are amazing! Not only did my clothes get clean, but the stains were gone and they smelled wonderful! All of this packed into one tiny pod! If I wasn't already a loyal Tide user, I would have been converting!
tide pod keep clothes clean and color bright and white
I found the Tide pods Spring meadow at walmart the sample packs . I instantly fell in love with them . They smell great and i don't have to run to the washer to add fabric softner just drop it in and forget it .I will deffiently be recommending these to my friends and family . Oh and i went back and bought 20 of the sample packs can't wait til they are out !
At first, I did not think one Tide pod would be enough to clean an entire load of laundry. I threw it in the water, and it didn't seem to dissolve at all, but after I put the clothes in, the water began to suds up and one pod seemed to clean a regular load of laundry just as well as regular Tide liquid. Very Impressive! Smells great too.
I've been doing laundry a long time and all I can say is WOW! I loved them.
The tide pods are fabulous, no hassle, and a great time saver as I just plop then into the washer receptacle and push start. We have been using Tide liquid detergent and we have it on top of our washer (receptacle pointing down) and because it is sitting on its side, it tends to leak if the cap is not put back on the nozzle, these pods eliminate the messiness. When we first got them, I thought they were dishwasher pods and when we noticed they were for our washer, we thought what a great idea as principally they work the same. Most importantly, the detergent did a wonderful job in cleaning our clothes. I would recommend them to my friends.
I love Tide Pods, Sons Socks are clean & smell great!
I found these to be a great product. Very easy to use and does not take up a lot of space in laundry room. My husband wear a white uniform shirt for work and is a truck driver and these worked great on his shirts. Will be easy to take with us on vacation.
Have tried the new pods for 2 weeks and I LOVE THEM!!! Toss it in, forget it and get TIDE greatness in every wash!!!
i tried the small sample walmart had great product good for travel wouuld like to buy more if price is right
This is the greatest product! Anyone in the family can do laundry now, and this really works. For clothes that don't need pretreating, it couldn't get any easier than this. No worries about getting liquid all over my hands or accidentally pouring too much. I tried this in cold, warm and hot and each load came out great. Loved it and will look for it in my store as soon as the sample runs out. Thanks!
Thank you for giving me the opportunity to try the product. With me being unemployed for 2 years now I am hesitant to spend money on new products because of finances. I tried the Pods and they work great. Will be awesome not to have all these bottles of products to get the job done. Just 1 little toss of a powerful cleaning agent and its done. I recommend this product to anyone even
I loved it! I was a bit skeptical at first because of the pods. Would they desolve thoroughly, would they leave a residue from not desolving, etc. But I love them! The clothes are clean, smell so fresh, and no pouring or measuring! I have always been a Tide user and what a great way to use it!
I was pleasantly surprised in how much cleaner my clothes were after using the pods vs. regular liquid Tide Detergent. The pods are so much easier to use, I tend to have drips from the laundry detergent end up on my washing machine. This will not happen anymore using the pods. Thank you Proctor & Gamble for developing such a wonderful product.
The Tide Pods worked great. Dissolved well and cleaned like my Liquid Tide. I liked that I didn't have to use both my Liquid Tide and my stain fighter. And while this is a good product for anyone, I think it's particularly great for college students. Very manageable and convenient. Two thumbs up!
Tide pods are so easy to us. You just drop it in and start the washer. There's no measuring and spilling involved. I love how you don't have to buy big heavy bottle and then recycle it. I would recommend this product to anyone who has a doubt about it.
Dissolved completely. Removed stains and made the load brighter as as stated. Would like to see this product in a unscented dye free version as some of my family have adverse reactions to perfumes and dyes.
I may have made a mistake but I put the pod in with one of my comforters and when I pulled the comforter out to put it in the dryer, the pod hadn't dissolved and I didn't realize that until I had dryed the comforter and had powder granules all over the floor when I pulled it out of the dryer. I will try it again but this caused more work in that I had to rewash and redry the comforter.
I was so looking forward to using them and when I found a sample pack at Wal-Mart I had to try it. Being a mom of 4 I am always looking for shortcuts. The pods smell great and do there job in warmer temps. I use cold water on my dark clothes and after the wash found some sticky, slimy stuff stuck on my sons uniform shirts. I think it might be from the pod packaging. I retried in cold water and the same thing happened. It works great with warm and hot water but not cold water. The package says for all temperatures but that is NOT TRUE.
My clothing came out cleaner and smelling wonderful! Loved it and went to WalMart to grab up the left over 3 pack sample packs. When will they be in our stores?
I LOVED the new Tide Pods. They are so convenient and easy to use. You just pop one right into the washer and wash your clothes. I give them a 10. The clothes came out bright and clean. Nothing to measure and they are easy to carry. No heavy box or bottle to lug around. Thanks for the awesome product. Keep up the good work.
it works wonderful and white came out really white
So easy and simple. May seem a little more expense, but
I was so excited to see these pods. As a huge fan of there Ariel pods from the UK I could not wait to try these out! So far i have used 2 of them on two different loads and they work so well! i am thrilled that this technology has come to the US and cannot wait to see them on my store shelves soon!
Product is very handy - just throw a pod into the wash rather than measuring out and having to rinse the measuring cup. I like it for when my children are helping with laundry because they can't spill it! However, for my own use, I prefer the flexibility of the liquid Tide so I can adjust the amount of detergent I am using based on the load size, amount of grime, etc.
I am an avid Tide user and these pods are terrific
I love everything about it! It’s cost effective because my family is not just dumping laundry soap in the washer. I love how clean the clothes came out and how nicely they smelled. Thank you for this great product!
I really liked them. Easy to use, no mess,,,I have a front loader so I just tossed one in with the clothes and shut the door.
I LOVED the Tide Pods! They work great and make your laundry smell wonderful. I would recommend them to everyone.
This is a great product! Simple to use and it works great!
No more measuring, making sure to add the stain remover, no more worries!! You just drop the Tide Pod in the washer and you are done! Love it!!
I was amazed at how well the Pods worked. And it is so much more convenient to have it all in one. The clothes looked brighter and cleaner. We have hard water and it made a huge difference in the clothes using the new product. THANK YOU, TIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was totally blown away by the cleaning power of the tiny pod. I use pods for my dishes in the dishwasher, and I use Tide's stain release pods as well (they are wonderful, too!) so I'm used to pods, but I never expected that little bit of detergent etc.,in a laundry pod by itself, to be able to clean a whole load of dirty work clothes! I read the directions and saw I could use 1 or 2 for heavily stained loads. So being a little leary, I used 2. Well, those clothes were sparkling clean and smelled great! The next load I did, I used only 1 pod. They were perfectly clean! No more pouring liquid detergent adding extra 'heavy-duty' cleaners. These tiny little pods clean everything, even my husbands greasy work clothes. Thanks for making my laundry day a little easier!
I am so happy to get this product. I was very shocked at how well the PODS worked. My laundry was as clean as if I had used my old liquid together with the laundry booster. I just found a new love in Tide Pods. I will be so happy not to lug around the heavy liquid jugs and no more seperate packs of laundry booster. Now, I can really save money. Hurray!! for Tide. The Bonus here is less plastic and waste for the enviroment.. I am telling eveyone about this GREAT new way to do laundry.
The Tide Pods are a very convenient way to do laundry. Everything that I needed to clean and brighten my laundry is in one premeasured capsule. It was very easy to use and will be easier to store than having several different products taking space in my cabinet.
The Tide Pods really worked well. My clothes definitely looked brighter. They made an obvious difference in stain removal too. I also thought my clothes smelled nice and fresh. I'm sold! Tide has really outdone themselves on this product.... so easy to use and great results!
I received my sample of tide pods and I love them. My laundry came our great, my whites were bright and my colored ones popped with color. Was so easy and convenient to use. I love these pods!!!
The new Tide Pods are a great help to making the chore of doing laundry easier. Just drop one in and presto! You're on your way to a clean wash with no measuring or spilling!
Love Tide Pods. Great on stains and dirt. My husband works in law enforcement and is a firefighter, I work in healthcare and we have a 21 year old and a 5 year old....so I have all kinds of dirt and stains to get out of laundry. Pods work wonders in getting out all the set in dirt and grime and help bring the colors back out in our clothes. Thanks TIDE!
I've only used them so far on reg.soiled clothes. Haven't gotten to the heavy ones yet. I t's been great so far. Keep up the great work.
I was very excited at the way tide pods cleaned my laundry. They are simple to use, just put them in the tub with your laundry, even in a front loader.No measuring, no spills, no messes. Clothes came out bright and clean. Will be looking to purchase these when they become available in my area!
Love that you dont have to do any pouring. Love that you dont have to measure, you know that each pod will do the trick! Thanks for the sample!
Thought this item was great. Has control to not overuse product, stain fighter and brightener. Did a great job just as I would have expected.
I FELT THE TABS DIDNT GIVE OFF ENOUGH SOAP. I PREFER MY LIQUID TIDE DETERGENT
I received my pods last week in the mail. Love the ease of using them. Just throw one in the washer along with your clothes and that's it. So much neater than pouring the liquid and the bottle getting all gooey! I would definitely buy these again.
Easy and mess free, can't say just how many times I've spilled and waisted the liquid. Wish Tide He was a bit stronger for our dirty farm work clothes. I love the ease of the Pods, have looked for them in our local store but did not find. I will purchase when I see them.
I found that the Pods cleaned my laundry very well. Very convenient that all I had to do was drop the Pod into the washer.
Very convenient to use and did a wonderful job, my only issue was with large loads you have to use two! It was great to not have to pretreat.
I thought I would love this product because it saves me from having to lug detergent up and down my stairs (since I am in college). It cleaned well for my cheap-o washer but I did notice my darker clothing did not respond well to the brightner. My yoga pants are a little more dull than usual. :( Besides that it was a great price from walmart and cleaned like it was supposed to.
I tried the new Pods and I really like them. They are easy to use and really do a great job. I would and have recommended them.
I love these i washed my puppy blankets and rugs, and they came out clean and smelling great, i cant wait for them to become available, i bought some sample packs at walmart...
I will recommend this product to all friends and family. It removed stains that had been in clothing that other products could not remove. It left my whites brighter.
These feel soooo weird, like they would "pop" easily, but they're actually prety tuff! I was kind of overwhelmed with a plastic smell just after opening, but now all I smell now is the wonderful scent!! It leaves the laundry smelling wonderful and so far seem to be doing a great job of cleaning.
I bought one of the sample packs and I love the scent! It's not overpowering but lasts. My whites looked awesome and some of my colors didn't look as faded as they have before after washing. I was very happy with this product and it was worth the buy.
Tide is the only laundry detergent for us, and Tide Pods are a great new easy way to experience this cleaning power! Just toss one in with your dirty clothes -- stains are gone, colors are bright, and the wash is clean as a whistle. I highly recommend this product and will definitely buy it again.
This is a great product. So easy to just pop one in with no mess. I would buy these in a minute.
I bought these in the trial packs of 3. I love these. I want these available to purchase in larger packs. My clothes smelled so good and were cleaner then other detergent.
I found these at my local walmart and bought a few packs of them. I absolutely love how easy they are and will def continue to use them. Thank you tide for all your great products = )
I loved this item. Now you have to think of a way to get fabric softner in them and you will have the perfect item! Will certainly buy when they become avaliable!
Even when cleaning my dogs blankets and towels, the pods left them smelling fresh and really clean. I really like these!
I used this pod thinking it would be awesome. Well I put my laundry in after the pod was put in. Started it up, used cold water in my he washer. When it was done, I pulled out my sons $20 royal blue fleece shirt he just got for 2011 Xmas and it has this sticky, slimy, booger like stuff stuck on it. I am assuming its the outer part of the pod. Now I am washing it a second time hoping that it comes off this time around...... Darn, I was having hopes for the pod, it seemed a neat little thing.
I was initially skeptical that such a tiny Tide Pods would clean my clothes as well and completely in a high-efficiency front load washer. I am here to say, THEY DO!! As an environmentally-concerned consumer, I am pleased that such a tiny product can deliver BIG results. You've got a winner here : )
Tide pods cleans the colored and white clothes , smells great and get the job done without the hassle of measuring how many cups you need ... only one is enough for every wash
I was lucky enough to find a 3 pack trial size box during my latest grocery store trip. I see I have to wait until March to get a bigger package of them- so sad. Wish I bought more when I was there! They are convenient, smell nice and my clothes, which had a myriad of smells and stains from 6 young children came out nice and clean.
Tried this last week, and am glad I did! My local Wal-Mart was selling 3-pack samples of the Tide Pods in the Spring Meadow scent for only 97 cents. Needless to say, I'm sold! I honestly didn't think the product would fully dissolve in my older Whirlpool stackable washer, but it did, and the clothes came out looking clean & smelling fresh. Only trouble is I wish they would come out with one with color-safe bleach alternative, as that is the normal Tide I use. Also would like to point out that one should be careful when handling the Pods, they are pretty fragile as they are full of nothing but liquid, they're not powder/liquid combo like Tide's Boost stain remover Pacs. Otherwise, great product, and I intend to buy more when it is officially released in March!
Wonderful! Clothes feel great and are very clean. I've tried other brands with a similar concept and have been very disappointed. Tide is leading the market here. I highly recommend this product!
I have been using another brand of laundry detergent. I really liked how white the whites were when I used the pods. I really did not see any difference in the colored laundry.
We bought a trial sample at our local Wal-Mart. My husband now loves to do the laudry because they brighten his clothes from the one load that he did. Our whites are really bright without using bleach. In the trail that we bought we only had 3 but it was worth it to try it. We love it and now I can't wait until they get the bigger packages of it. It is so easy that my children can help with the laundry and I don't even have to worry about them spilling laundry soap all over just put he pod in the washer and Tide does the rest. Thanks Tide for being so wonderful.
fast, efficient, don't worry about it cleaning. Love the smell too! Throw it in no measuring...how easy is that!
Tried Trial Pack and LOVE them! I bought one then went back the next day to buy more. The clothes are cleaner, smell great and love the no fuss, no measure idea. I can't wait for the full-size to come out, guess I'll just have to keep buying trial size.
I love this new concept. I am a big fan of simplicity. Pods are that and they work great too.
These pods are great!!! They smell great and clean amazing!!! I figured they would not dissolve in cold water but yup they did!! I will be recommending this product to all my friends and family!! It just made my laundry days easy!!
My son works at a restaurant and brings home the smell of a kitchen with him. These pods not only made his work clothes look and feel fresher they made them smell fresher too. Love it!
The pods are amazing. My laundry is cleaner and easier than ever before. All the women in my life have noticed a huge difference :) Thanks Tide for making such a cool product!
