Spring Meadow - Odor is too strong

Pods are so convenient. It cleans well, but the smell is so overwhelming, I had to rinse my clothes 3 times. The smell lingers in the laundry room for days.

We are really sorry to hear you had this experience with our Tide PODS Laundry Detergent Pacs, Spring Meadow, Gen. It must upsetting that the scent was too strong for your liking. We understand scent is very subjective, and we appreciate you providing us with this feedback and positive comments on it, but this is definitely not the type of experience we want you to go through. For a safer Tide PODS alternative, I would advise you to try our Tide PODS Free & Gentle which is formulated for people with sensitive skin, and it is also dye-free and scent-free. Please feel free to contact us at (800) 879-8433 so we can learn more about this situation and take care of you for this inconvenience. Your satisfaction is highly important for us at Tide.

Overrated

Thea do NOT clean your clothes. Yes, they’re easy and convenient but unless you put like 4-5 in each time you’re not getting a good wash and can’t even smell your clothes. Always had to wash simple stains multiple times. The pods just don’t cut it. The regular liquid detergent is game changer though.

We are sorry you've experienced lack of effectiveness when using the PODS. It's really a bittersweet feeling as you've been left with a lot to desire with the PODS, but we are also glad you enjoy our liquid detergent.. Our PODS are made to be able to handle stains and have an impactful scent. So, future references, please try to never use more than 3 PODS as you may risk staining on your clothes. Also, we have a more powerful line called Tide PowerPODS, which are larger versions of the regular PODS, including the "+ Downy" version, for Large, XL, XXL, and heavy duty loads with increased cleaning power and impactful scent. Please know your satisfaction is our goal, so we'll be sharing your comments with our team. Please don't hesitate to give us a call at (800) 879-8433 for more information or guidance on how to use the PODS effectively.

Pods stuck together

In this container, I’ve never had this issue before, but there are multiple pods melted together, so where I would normally use one or two pods for a cycle. I’m having to use more multiple times. This is happening. They will not come apart. This is a waste of product. I tried to add a photo I received a UGC error

Hi Danny! I’m sorry to hear about your experience with the Tide PODS. It’s understandable to feel frustrated when the product doesn’t perform as expected, especially when you’ve had a positive experience in the past.<br /><br />The issue of PODS sticking together can occur if they are exposed to moisture at any point, which can cause them to melt or clump together. The design of the PODS is such that they are meant to dissolve upon contact with water, but if they come into contact with moisture before use, it can lead to the problems you’re experiencing.<br /><br />To help prevent this from happening in the future, we recommend the following:<br /><br />- Keep the package tightly closed between uses to avoid moisture exposure.<br />- Ensure your hands are dry when handling the PODS.<br />- Store the product in a dry area at room temperature with low humidity.<br /><br />If you find that the PODS are stuck together, we advise against pulling them apart, as this could cause them to tear or burst. <br /><br />We take product quality very seriously and would like to look into your experience further. Please feel free to contact us at (800) 879-8433, and our service team will be happy to assist you. Thank you for bringing this to our attention, and we appreciate your understanding.

Terrible fragrance

Worst fragrance ever. I have used Tide pods for years, and have never had an issue. But I gag going into the laundry room when the washer is going and can't have my sheets smell like this. My adult daughter and I fought over who got those the last one that was a different fragrance and who had to use this one.

Terrible scent/odor from “Spring Meadow” Tide Pods

Specifically, the “Spring Meadows” Tide Pods smelled terrible. They left my clothes smelling like Mildew, or some sort of dirt smell. Afterwards, I noticed the Pods themselves had this smell as well. Even when trying to mask the smell with Downy fabric softener, the scent was very strong and unpleasant.

Have yet to receive product but u want a review

You ask for a review on products you have YET to ship. I received a notice it was shipped a day after your email asking for the review of a product I have yet to receive. It was 3 days or more from my order date that you put my order together. You send an email that I cant reply to so you force me to comment here. Not cool.

Gets EVERYTHING clean ON COLD incl rugs

This stuff is unbelievably good! I used to think that I had to wash on hot-hot. As hot as possible... Instead, I found out that if I wash on cold with this stuff, all gets wayyyyy cleaner. I do use a front loader at my son's place. A big one. And I can run it for 1 hour or more with extra water. I do a ton of laundry because I run an Airbnb. The laundry never stops. Additionally, I found out that EVEN the long runners with rubber under mat, can be put in the front loader and come out looking like new. I don't have to toss them anymore once they begin to look dirty. Even heavy stains come out. I am totally hooked on it. And very surprised how well it works. The key is may be: the combi of time (longer than 30 min) and extra water choice, and then this Pod 3in1. Whatever. It works super good. Better than any detergent I ever used and I am a clean freak. Just amazing.

Terrible Scent

I bought the Tide Spring Meadow scent pods a while back because they were regular size pods. The Tide pods are now XL or 1 pod equals 2 which is good if you do large loads of laundry or doing laundry for a family. Ninety nine percent (99%) of my loads are very small. I cannot wait to finish this awful smelling Spring Meadow scent. Then I will be on the search for a pod that is regular size and a scent that I can handle.
