Not worth it

Disappointed in the Tide Pods. Decided to give a more expensive brand a try and will not be buying them again. I have never had a pod not fully dissolve until now. Opened my washer to find a gooey mess stuck inside that I had to pull out by hand. There is also a sticky film on the inside of the door that was never there before. I love using pods and will be going back to my old brand going forward.

reply from Tide

Thank you for sharing that your Tide PODS™ didn't fully dissolve, Jamie. Our products go through many quality checks to provide you with the best laundry clean. Your Tide PODS™ not fully dissolving can be a result of overloading your washer. We recommend ensuring to following the dosing instructions, and not to overload your washer to allow enough room for the pod to move around and dissolve. The best way to remove the residue from your washer is to use a warm wet cloth to wipe away any residue. We'd like to gain a better understanding of your experience, and would appreciate you giving us a call at (800) 879-8433.

T-Pods are great

Tide Pods spring meadow smell great and clean great. With a family of six adults the 156 pods has to last for more than a month, and usually does. Most of the adults use 2 pods per wash and it is just right not making anyone feel itchy. Most wash are done in cold water and once a week.

# 1 for me

Tide is the only detergent I use. I’ve tried others, but stains are not completely removed. I need to be sure my detergent is going to clean my clothes the first time I wash them. I’m busy and don’t have time to verify what I I know to be true. They’re clean and ready to be put on a hanger!

These pods are great!

Super easy and no mess! My kids always seem to leave a huge detergent mess in the laundry room until I started using pods. Now they just pop one in the washer and then throw in clothes. They work great! No detergent mess! Clothes come out clean and smelling great.

So Messy!

So many of the pods are stuck together. This is the second time we have had this issue. We end up having to cut them apart and end up with detergent all over the place. We bought these for their convenience, but they turned out to be more of a hassle.

reply from Tide

We appreciate you letting us know about the condition of your Spring Meadow PODS. It may be helpful to know that the product is designed to dissolve when it comes in contact with water, so if they're exposed to moisture at any point during storage or shipping, they can become stuck together, leak or burst. If the PODS are stuck together, don't cutting or pulling them apart. It is safe to throw them in the wash together, as long as there are no more than 2 or 3 that are joined. If they've actually burst, and the liquid is leaking out of the PODS, then we'd like for you to please not use them and reach out to us Monday through Friday, between the hours of 9:00am to 6:00pm EST, at 1-800-879-8433 for additional assistance.

Smells like fish

I’ve tried adding Lysol rinse, oxygen booster, etc; in hopes of salvaging these pods. They stink so bad. Previous reviews show the manufacturer is aware of this. It’s not my washer, and I’m a competent adult who has been washing clothing for years. Please do not offer a condescending excuse for a lack of quality control.

Generational, superior cleaning,no unpleasant odor

Since this was on sale with a generous amount of discount, and was my go-to laundry product for decades, I decided to treat myself and splurge on this mega-sized investment. My fresh-smelling, thoroughly-clean laundry spoke volumes and brought me back to why I used it for so long in the first place…SUPERIORITY!

Limited value

Considering the hype, promises, visual presentation and the cost, one might expect to figure out how many pods are needed, wash their clothes once and be done. So simple, right? My experience is opposite. If I don’t catch a stain beforehand and pretreat it with a totally different product, I will have to launder the item twice, having pretreated the second time. So, it doesn’t do a great job. If it can’t get out fresh stains, I wonder just how clean the clothes are after they are washed. Any fragrances could be a cover-up.

Esther, thank you so much for giving these pods a try. We're sorry that you weren't as impressed with them as we had hoped you would be. As you can imagine, some stains can be quite tough, especially if they're set in. That's why some stains need to be pre-treated, and sometimes, you may need more than just one pod per load. We'd love to talk about this with you and offer some tips and tricks on how to remove the stains and improve your future uses. We can be reached at (800) 879-8433.

Absolutely love these little pods!

I’m so happy to do laundry now it’s not a chore! Drop the pods in-select the settings on the washer, put cloths in, and drop the lid! Out comes items that are clean, stains gone, and smell so fresh. No measure, no mess and no waste! Just clean laundry.
