pods

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!!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Stains white polyester irreversibly

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

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!

not for HE washers

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.

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 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!

We appreciate you giving Tide PODS a try and I’m sorry they aren’t dissolving properly. If you haven’t done so already, I hope you’ll try the following tips for best results:
• Switch to a warm water setting during the winter months or whenever water is exceptionally cold. • Do not overload your washer. Overloading may cause the pac to get trapped inside fabric folds. • Be sure to store the product in a cool, dry area and close the package after each use. Hope this helps!
