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.
Thank you for sharing that you didn't receive your Tide PODS™. We recommend reaching out to Sam's Club for assistance by calling 1-888-746-7726.
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.
We're sorry to hear that you're not liking the Spring Meadow scent of your Tide PODS™, and we appreciate your feedback on this! Tide products undergo extensive quality testing to ensure they meet the needs and preferences of consumers like you, so this is certainly not the experience we want you to have, and we're glad you reached out. Your satisfaction is important to us, and we'd like to learn more, if possible, so we can help you find the right scent for you! Please call our team at (800) 879-8433, any time from 9:00AM-6:00PM EST Monday, for assistance.
Love Tide, but new scent is nauseating
I usually use the Original Scent Tide, which i love. On a whim, I got the Spring Meadow scent and was immediately blown away by the stench of what I describe smells like rancid raw oysters with undertones of sweet chemical gag. It's not my machine, as the stench came directly from the container. I've never felt literal nausea from the scent of detergent, but...yikes.
We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback. While it's great that you're a fan of our original scent, we're sorry to hear this has been your experience with Tide PODS™ Spring Meadow. Our products always go through extensive safety and quality tests to ensure they are safe when used as directed and bring you an excellent laundry cleaning experience. We understand that this wasn't the case this time, and we'll be sure to share your comments with our team. Based on the symptoms you described, we recommend discontinuing the use of the pods if you haven't already done so. Please hold onto the product for a few weeks, in case our team needs any additional information. To remove the scent from your clothes, wash them again with the hottest water safe for the fabric, using the recommended amount of detergent. If the items are bleach-safe, use a detergent that contains bleaching agents while washing. We offer many other scents, and we would be happy to help you find another one of our detergents that better matches your preferences. For assistance, please give us a call at (800) 879-8433.
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.
Thanks for sharing your feedback with us. We'll be sure to let our team know what you think. We'd like to find Pods that better fit your needs, so when you have a minute, please reach out to us at (800) 879-8433.
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.
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.
Smells of fish
I went on this website to see if other he try e same experience with the smell . I usually buy original liquid tide or powder and have never come across this and have always been satisfied. I see I am not the only one and would not re-purchase this particular product

Horrible smell
Wow, I should’ve read reviews instead of assuming 4.8 meant great. Oh my what a terrible smell opening the bag! Smells like fish! Nauseating! Why would you want to wash your clothes in a fish smell! So gross I’ll never buy again and wish I could return! Tide….epic fail. I’m rushing back to my old brand. At least it smelled much better, even if it’s costs a little more. Seriously, avoid!!!!
We're really sorry to hear you had this experience with our Tide PODS Laundry Detergent Pacs, Spring Meadow. It must upsetting that the scent caused such effect on your health.<br /><br />We understand scent is very subjective, and we appreciate your feedback on this, but this is definitely not the type of experience we want you to go through.<br /><br />For a safer Tide Liquid alternative, I would advise you to try our Tide Liquid Free & Gentle which is formulated for people with sensitive skin, and it is also dye-free and scent-free.<br /><br />Please know, safety is our top priority, all our products are thoroughly evaluated to be safe when used as directed, so this isn’t what we would expect.<br /><br />Please feel free to contact us at (800) 879-8433 so we can learn more about this situation and take care of you. Your satisfaction is highly important for us at Tide. We want to keep you in our family.
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.
