I use cloth diapers for my son since he was 2 months old. After some trial and error with other detergents, I decided to try Tide. The enzymes in this detergent ensure that all of the poop and urine residue actually washes out. I have also noticed the powder works amazing on removing stains from all of our clothes.

Disappointed!!!

I am so disappointed with the new fragrance to the original tide. You should have called it a different name and leave the original alone. Not every one wants to smell strong fragrances on their clothes. There are many people that are sensitive to chemicals/ strong odours. This scent is the worst!!!

Tide Original Scent changed and ruined

Tide has been used in our family since I was very young (so well over 30 years). The scent of Tide Original Powder has always been soft, almost powdery and very clean. I love it, my family loves it. It seems P & G on 07/01/2014 decided to change the scent of Tide Original Powder (he and non-he). I just cannot understand why! First April Fresh Downy softener was ruined, and now my beloved Tide Powder. So sad!!!

Adam, we are so sorry that you're dissatisfied with our most recent updates to Tide Original! If you're pining for the old Original, we highly suggest switching to our updated Mountain Spring. We think fans of the former scent will love it. We have lots of new members in the Tide family and encourage you to give them a try! You can browse them at www.tide.com and if you have any further questions, please call at 1-800-879-8433. Thank you!

I recently purchased tide again because I'm going to be cloth diapering with this child. I fell in love again, I forgot how great the cleaning power is, it smells fantastic. It's more expensive but I feel you don't need to use as much as cheaper brands.

New scent

I have been using original Tide powder all my life, but no longer. The new smell nauseates me. In fact I had to set it outside after I opened it. I am actually glad to hear that you changed the scent, because I was wondering if it smelled different because I had Covid a few months ago. I liked the fact that the old Tide had very little residual smell. New scent gives me a headache.

Tide, a Firefighter's Friend

We used Tide around the firehouse for all kinds of things when I was a firefighter. They still do. I remember when we sanded down and then painted our 1971 Mack Ladder Truck (Ladder 26). The first thing we did, before we started sanding, was wash it with 140 degree water dosed with Tide Powdered Laundry Detergent. We used dish gloves to protect our hands from the hot water. We did our laundry in it too.

This is my absolute

This is my absolute favorite laundry detergent. It gets out almost any stain and leaves everything feeling and smelling clean. I also love the powder because you can add it to cleaning buckets or mop water and use it around the house as a cleaning agent.

Get the Mountain Spring powder!

For everyone who deplores the new "original" scent as much as I do, get the Mountain Spring powder. Seriously. It's a much lighter fragrance that just smells "clean", and isn't sickeningly sweet and cloying. No, it doesn't smell like the old "original" scent, but it definitely comes close to it.

I miss the old Tide!

The new Ultra Tide just isn't cutting it for us. Regardless of water temperature and type of clothing, I have to use more than the recommended amount to get things clean. I'm wasting so much money, having to use extra detergent. I'm finishing up what I have, and searching for a new HE powdered detergent.

I'm sorry you feel the Tide detergent isn’t cleaning well. Please be assured all our laundry detergents are designed to provide good overall cleaning. In addition, they all contain enzymes which help remove protein soils.Since powders and liquids have different performance strengths, I’d like to share some tips with you. If you have clay or mud type of soil, then try our powders as they work best on this type of stain. For greasy, oily solids liquid is the best. For best results: • Follow care tag instructions, using the hottest water safe for the fabric. • Sort clothes properly grouping similar colors and fabrics. • Don't overload the washer so clothes can circulate freely. • Use the recommended amount of detergent for average water hardness, a little more in very hard water, a little less in very soft water. • Use gentle cycles only when care instructions recommend it. Hope this helps!

Terrible Smell that Lingers

I already wrote one review on how terrible the smell is but now I must write another review. Not only is the smell horrible but it lingers and is giving me a migraine headache. I have been a faithful Tide user for 40 years and loved how it smelled. It was a clean fresh smell that was mild and pleasing to the senses. This new "Original" Tide has an overpowering perfume smell that permeates everything. In desperation I tried Tide Clean Breeze and it was even worse. It was mentioned by the manufacturer to try Tide Mountain Spring - that this is closer to the original smell. I will try it but I will probably have to stop using Tide since they are likely using this new fragrance technology in all of their products. When I was at the store today looking for another brand to try I noticed ALL the scents were overpowering --- even more so than Tide. Sadly even the more natural brands are also doing crazy strong scents. Who decided we want to smell like strong lingering perfume???
