Terrible Product - will never buy again

They will not dissolve and are stuck to my clothes and ruining them!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
By Response From TideDecember 18, 2017
We always want our PODS™ to be convenient and efficient, and we’re sorry that was your experience! No worries, our detergents are water soluble, and any residue can be removed by soaking the garments as soon as possible overnight in water, and then rewashing without detergent in the hottest water safe for the fabric. We’d like to help you further, please call us at (800) 879-8433.

These pods are just not dissolving!
on December 17, 2017

I have had to rewash every load after finding globs of the pod in my machine & on clothing. The last thing I tried was puncturing a pod and pouring the liquid into my dispenser. Same outcome.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

We’re sorry that was your experience, Oregon! Please know that our PODS™ are designed to be placed in the drum of the machine first before any of your clothes, and should not be placed into the dispenser. We always want them to be convenient and efficient. To remove any residue, soak in water overnight, and then rewash without detergent in the hottest water safe for the fabric. We want to help, please give us a call at (800) 879-8433.

I was looking for a new detergent for my clothes, and this has easily taken the spot. I recommend trying your tide pod with bleach, it helps it go to work faster
I would recommend this to a friend!

Dissappointed
on January 24, 2018

Since moving, my pods stopped dissolving. I have a FL washer which costs every time you use. Now, I am wasting time and money to do laundry twice. And stuck with 1.5 containers.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

It’s important to us that our PODS™ help simplify your laundry process, Keellis, and we’re sorry to hear this hasn’t been the case recently. The good news is we have some simple tips to remove any residue. You’ll want to soak the items in the hottest water safe for the fabric overnight to dissolve the film, then rewash without detergent. For best results, always place the PODS™ on the bottom of the drum before any clothes are added, and choose a suitable cycle for the amount of clothes being washed. We’d be happy to see how we can help you further with this, please give us a call at (800) 879-8433.

Ruins clothing
on January 12, 2019

from Pittsburgh PA
Does not completely dissolve in water and leaves a sticky residue on fabric, almost like gum or glue but it's from the pods. Will not buy again! Ruins fabric.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
Response from TideBy The Tide TeamJanuary 15, 2019
Because our PODS™ are water-soluble, we expect them to dissolve fully in each wash! For best results, be sure to add them to the drum of the machine before adding your laundry. To get rid of the residue you're seeing, we suggest soaking the affected fabrics overnight, then rewashing in the hottest water safe for the fabrics. We're determined to restore your confidence in us, so please call us at (800) 879-8433 when you can.

Contains Benzisothiazolinone
on January 31, 2019
Posted by: Emnika
from Boston
I am not sure how this can be listed as hypoallergenic, when it contains benzizothiazolinone - a neurotoxin that is becoming so widespread of an allergen that it is included in the T.R.U.E test.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
