Great Product

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 would recommend this to a friend!

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.

Not dissolving

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.

Not happy with Tide 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.

Purple stains on whites
on January 29, 2014

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

Wouldn't Use Anything Else!

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!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

So Disappointed

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.
