Ruined new jeans

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

Disappointed
on December 31, 2012

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.

after Reading the Reviews, I Won't Buy Pods

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.

Cold water wash

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.

sudsy pods

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.

Lost that fresh Tide smell

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

Tide PODS are Fading laundry... use Caution
on January 22, 2013
Posted by: Anonymous
from Dallas, TX
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. :(
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I just love using the pods.

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!
