Great laundry detergent

I have been using Tide Pods for a long time. Wash in cold water almost always and they get everything clean. Don’t bother with the o i lean version because the normal pods do the job well.

Horrible Experience with this particular brand

Left blue stains on my clothes that can't be removed thereby destroying my clothes and the plastic doesn't completely dissolve even in hot water but definitely not in cold water and bits and pieces melted to laundry. It was awful!! Don't buy!!

reply from Tide

We are really sorry to hear you had this experience with our Tide PODS Laundry Detergent Pacs, Spring Meadow, Jet. It must upsetting that the product did not perform as expected. We appreciate you providing us with this feedback, but this is definitely not the type of experience we want you to go through. Improper detergent dosing and oversized loads can cause residue on fabrics and hinder washing. For high-efficiency machines, maintain specific fill levels: a hands gap for normal cycles, 60% for synthetics, and 40% for delicate cycles. Low water pressure can also affect performance. Always follow dosing instructions and check POD compatibility with newer machines. If the laundry product leaves hard plastic-like residue or gluey patches, do not pull stuck garments apart to avoid tearing; instead, soak them overnight in water and rewash without detergent at the highest temperature allowed by the care label. For stains left by the product, if the items have not been tumble dried, rinse immediately with warm water, soak overnight, then rewash without detergent at the appropriate temperature. If the items have been tumble dried or dried on a hot radiator, rinse with hot water (within care label limits), wring out, apply clear rubbing alcohol or alcohol-based hand gel (testing colorfastness first), let soak for 10 minutes, then rewash with one POD. Stains from tumble-dried items may be harder to remove. 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.

Easy use!

The Pods sure make doing laundry easy! There are no big hugs to carry around. Simply pla e the number of pods necessary per the size of load. My husband’s farm clothes come out clean and smelling fresh!

Quality pods

I have tried other brands of laundry pods, but they don't compare to tide. These have always worked well for me and keep my clothes very clean. Spend the extra few bucks to get a quality product.

Doesn't dissolve!

I've used the Tide pods for over a year now and I have not found they're worth the price at all. I always placed the pod in the drum before I added our clothes

Marilyn, we are truly sorry to hear that your Tide PODS Laundry Detergent Spring Meadow Scent are not dissolving properly, despite you placing them in the drum before adding clothes as instructed. This is certainly not the excellent cleaning power we want you to experience, especially since our 3 in 1 PODS are designed to be a detergent plus stain remover plus color protector, dissolving completely to fight stains and brighten your clothes. We understand how frustrating it is when a product does not perform as expected, and we are concerned that this has been happening for over a year. We would love to learn more about your washing machine, water temperature, and typical load sizes to understand why the PODS are not fully dissolving. Your satisfaction is very important to us, and we are here to help resolve this issue. Please contact us directly at 1-800-879-8433 at your convenience so we can assist you further and ensure you get the best possible results from your Tide PODS. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Smells so GROSS >> Like FISH

I thought I was losing my mind as I couldn't believe this "Spring Meadow" named detergent smelled so BAD. The PODs smell like FISH and so do my clothes after washing :( Now that I read other reviews saying the same thing, I hope you stopped making it.

We're really sorry to hear you had this experience with our Tide PODS® Laundry Detergent Spring Meadow Scent. It must upsetting that the scent was too different from your expectation and liking. We understand scent is very subjective, and we appreciate your feedback on the product, 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. Now, to remove odor: - Rewash with the hottest water safe for the fabric, using the recommended amount of detergent and fabric softener. - If item is bleach-safe, use bleach while washing. - One cup of vinegar can be added to wash, if not bleach safe. - Be sure to check owner’s manual on how to clean out machine or do service wash on machine. - The heat from the dryer may help remove excess perfume from clothes, potentially leading to better solutions for consumers concerned about strong garment odors. 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.

Not a fan of this scent

It has great cleaning power but the scent is not pleasant. I was hoping I would eventually get used to it but to be honest I've grown to dislike it more and more. Not someone who normally is sensitive to “chemical smells” but this starts out really chemically and then leaves a lingering sour odor
