So easy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love it - hate the smell

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 would recommend this to a friend!

Glad you love the new Tide PODS and I'll let our team know you'd like to see them in the original or unscented version. Thanks for your review.

Great All in One Product

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.

Cleans without the mess

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 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.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Stained Tons of Clothes
on July 12, 2012

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.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Love the concept, but....

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!

I’m sorry the Tide POD isn’t dissolving correctly and I’m sharing your comments with the rest of our team. Meanwhile, here are some tips to help ensure your Tide PODS dissolves properly. You may need to switch to a warm water setting during the winter months or whenever water is exceptionally cold. We also recommend not overloading your washer – this will prevent detergent from getting trapped in fabric folds. Hope you'll give them another try!
