Potty Training
on September 16, 2012

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 would recommend this to a friend!

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 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.

A Gooey Mess
on September 19, 2012
Posted by: PlumArt
from Houston, TX
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.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Convenient way to do laundry!

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.

Worth every penny

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.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great Idea, just needs some improvements!

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!

Liked it!!

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!
