Why do my clothes smell worse?

I've been buying this exact purchase from Sams Club (4 bags inside the box) for a while now. The last box smells TERRIBLE. I thought my washing machine had grown some mildew or something, because all of my clothes are coming out smelling worse than they went in. I opened a new pack and that same smell came wafting out of the bag. It's the smell of the pods and it's really, really bad. I am using them up because they are not cheap, and supplementing with some of those smelly bead things. I will be switching to a new brand moving forward. Sad, because I've always been a Tide user.

So disappointed

I have been using Tide all my adult life. My family has always loved the smell of our clothes. The last few years the smell has changed. We are all changing our detergent. The smell is offensive. I have tried pods and other tide sense and they are all bad. Missing my tide. Susan Gardner

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.

Chemical smell

Our laundry has a strong chemical smell after using these pods. We didn’t know what was causing the smell initially, but after rewashing our laundry with a different detergent and then using these pods later on new laundry and reading other reviews, it’s clear this is caused by the pods. We are wasting money on pods, time and money on the re-washes. We have been lifelong Tide customers, very disappointing.

Worst fragrance ever

I have used Tide pods for years and have been very happy with them however the Spring Meadow fragrance is terrible, I gag going into the laundry room while washing. My daughter and I actually fought over who had to use them! Unfortunately I bought a large box so I'm stuck with them.

Not so great

Lot of Pods, but need 3 for large loads

reply from Tide

Yes, depending on the load size, you may need to use additional pods. However, for large loads, you should only need to use two and three for extra large loads. You may be a bigger fan of our Power PODSâ„¢ since you can use fewer pods per load, so we'd love to share additional details about those and help you in any way we can. Please call us at (800) 879-8433.
