Very Disappointed

Although I am a life long Tide user, I purchased this product because it was the only He detergent the store had at the time. Although it cleans the clothes it leaves them with that not clean smell. It reminds me of how clothes smell after they have been wet and left in a pile to dry. I highly discourage purchassing this product unless you absolutely have to.

Ony laundry detergent I use

I only buy Tide for my entire family and this is the only detergent I will use. I buy regular Tide my older kids use because they like a scent after their clothes are washed. Have dry skin and eczema and sensitivity to perfumes. I wish they would make it in a bleach formula though. Their current bleach formula smells too bad for me.

Disappointed

My family has a sensitivity to fragrance, so I started using the 2X Ultra Tide Free several months ago, with satisfactory results. However, it is no longer on the shelves and now Tide Free & Gentle is the only fragrance free Tide product available at the store. I started noticing over the next few weeks that it does not seem to have the cleaning power of the previous product. I noticed that grease spots were not releasing and both whites and colors were not getting as clean as that to which I had become accustomed. I am disappointed that such a great product as the 2X Ultra Tide Free is no longer available, and view the replacement as a non-effective substitute for day to day laundry requirements.

reply from Tide Team

I am sorry you have noticed a difference in cleaning with the Tide Free and Gentle. The product name was changed in July, 2010. However, there were no ingredient changes. You may want to pre-treat directly on the grease stains. Sometimes this type of stain may need a little more attention. I hope this information helps.

Great for familys

With my first child I used dreft but hated how it made his clothes feel and it didn't remove stains, and my husband I both have extremely bad allergies so regular detergent would have us sneezing all day, so now Tide Free is the only detergent that we wash in, it removes all stains and smells from the kids clothes and doesn't make the colors of the clothing look dull.

I love this Tide

I have an allergy-prone husband, so I always washed our linens in Tide Free. Tide Free & Gentle liquid seems to be the same as my old Tide Free. It does an excellent job in hot water. However, I once mistakenly picked up a bottle of Tide Free & Gentle "he" -- it seems to perform just as well. Is there any problem of which I am not aware in using "he" laundry products in regular washing machines? Thanks!

Best buy for my best Guys

Growing up Tide Free was the only laundry soap allowed. My Dad broke out from everything, even the residue of other laundry soaps used in our washer. Out on my own now I introduced Tide Free to my housemate. His psoriasis has improved and Tide Free is the only laundry soap allowed in our washer! What a great product!

Tide 96 oz bottle

I have always used Tide and been happy with the product, however, the new 96 oz bottle which lays on its side is an engineering mistake. The bottle drips to the floor when left on the side and when turned upright drips down the bottle to whatever surface it is sitting on since it does not have the resevoir like the regular Tide bottles. A major design flaw! Who tests these things?????

No more itchy dog

I have a bulldog who is allergic to everything. A friend recommended a detergent specific to allgeries. I wasn't familiar with the brand and I always use Tide so I decided to check and see if Tide offered an allergy sensitive formula. Sure enough, Tide came thru for me with the Tide Free product. It has made a huge difference in managing her allergies and she isn't scratching all the time. She also has less shedding as a result of managed allergies. Thank you and I would recommend this product to my other allergy sensitive dog loving friends.

Excellent Product

We are highly allergic to dyes and fragrances in most laundry detergents. I've been disappointed in the other "free" laundry products I've tried because they don't get my clothes clean. Tide Free is the only dye and perfume free laundry detergent that I have found that is excellent at getting my clothes clean.

not the same as Tide Free

I've used Tide Free for 15 years. This formula is not the same. It does not cause a rash which is a plus, but it does not get our clothes clean. It didn't even get out playground dirt from my son's T-shirts. Tide Free used to get everything out, including some paint stains. I'm so disappointed.
