Smell nauseating

I just tossed out an entire bottle of tide - 100 load bottle. The smell is so sickening it nauseated me. I tried doing a 2nd load with 1/2 as much detergent - but, that was disgusting too. If someone has a poor sense of smell, it could be tolerable, but, even my husband (poor sense of smell) commented it was very "pungent". Strongly recommend to smell before purchasing - or just don't purchase. I will never purchase a Tide product again - don't need these expensive and wasteful surprises.

Give me back my silver cap

I find it nearly impossible to read how full the measuring cap is after its color was changed to dark blue, which coincidentally is almost the same color as the detergent. The product used to have a silver cap and I could easily see how much detergent I was using. I'm a born sceptic, so I tend to assume the worst, i.e. Tide changed the color of the top to increase product usage. Change it back to silver and all will be forgiven.

Scent change: Excessively strong

I have used Tide Original for years. I love that I can get nearly all stains out using it. It is the only detergent I will use. Due to asthma and strong fragrances causing breathing problems for me I have been happy that Original Tide was a detergent that wasn't to strong and I could have a I scent without having breathing issues. I just opened a new jug of Tide Original and put a load of clothes in the wash. I can't walk into my laundry room now because the scent is overwhelming. No where on the new container does it say anything about a scent change. I am very unhappy that I now have TWO 170 ounce jugs of detergent I will not be able to use with no warning of the change and a room I can not walk in to for several hours as I wait for the scent to dissipate with a window open in the middle of winter.

Great products!

I have learned how to use Tide HE and Tide Stain Release products with my new Electrolux front loading washer. I am happy to report that I have no problems removing stains (together they work better than bleach!), clothes look brighter/whiter and I can use these products on any fabric. The fragrance was very strong at first but I found that by adjusting the amount of Tide HE used or adding an extra rinse, the fragrance can be minimized. I have always trusted Tide products.

Love this product

Let me start by sharing with you how much I pride myself in my laundry skills that I have developed over the 40+ years that I have been doing laundry. I am an extremely satisfied Tide Original consumer and have been for many years. My family has always and continues to receive compliments on how well their clothing looks and smells. Although, I needed to make some necessary adjustments to transition myself to using my HE washer. After having made the adjustments, I can tell you that I am a fan of HE washers and LOVE MY TIDE ORIGINAL SCENT HE LAUNDRY DETERGENT!!! Tide is a reliable product that I depend upon for great results. I like that I get my desired results without exception. I do have one concern to post here: Can someone share with me as to... Where I may purchase the Tide with color safe bleach HE Original? I have yet to see it in the stores and have been adding another HE colorsafe bleach into my Tide HE Detergent for my loads that need the boost. (Whites that cannot be bleached, etc) A helpful tip about front load washers: My machine just happens to have a very convenient specific cycle used to periodically clean the washer. This works great and so my washer remains fresh/ brand new. If your HE washer does not have this feature then you will simply need to run an empty cycle through with just bleach (no detergent), wipe down your machine and leave your door open to air out. If you periodically adapt this simple routine it will resolve any potential odor problems BEFORE they are able to start leaving you to enjoy your investment for years.

Rated the best cleaner

Gets out stains. No residue odor, and no waste of water like the liquid detergents

Classic Tide still available

Been using this for decades... they have not hurt it in any way (as they have with pods, liquids, and other "improvements")
