WOW, what a difference!

I have to admit that I was skeptical at first. I didn't think this could get my clothes looking and smelling clean without the added scent. The last few years I have been getting skin rashes and wanted to get to the bottom of it. I also have severe allergies with itchy eyes and runny nose. So I decided to give it a try and WOW, all the stains came out and my clothes smell clean without the perfume smell. It really helps with my allergies and no more skin rash! When I don't like a product I let the manufacturer know but I am happy to say that I love Tide Free and Gentle, so I just thought I'd let you know!

Gentle for baby

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Imagine being a tide household & having a baby & having to purchase a notable baby detergent that everyone swears by & you're not impressed. I was elated to discover that tide makes gentle detergent that's safe enough to use on my toddler. It's not scented but has a fresh laundry smell. We are now a tide household again.

Perfect for whites and sensitive loads

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently use this on my whites mainly my towels which I use to dry my face and I didn't react bad like before with other detergents.This detergent has a nice scent but too much.It works great to take off the stains of my whites shirts and towels.

Doesn't make me itch

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have sensitive skin that is prone to dermatitis and reacts to laundry detergents. This has not caused any negative reactions or allergies from my skin. The formula is clear which I like better than the blue colored formulas of other detergents

Clean and gentle

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love that this cleaned my laundry. I have sensitive skin and I truly saw a difference in my skin while using this free and gentle tide. I've continued to use it for my sheets and towels cuz that's what my skin touches the most.

Change in odor and color

I have been using Tide Free and Clear for decades. Over the past 6 months I've noticed an unpleasant peanut butter type odor and the color is yellow and it seems thicker. It still seems to wash OK, but the odor is very off-putting and I will probably switch brands.

Thank you for sharing your experience with us, Dr. Barb. Our products are put through many quality checks to ensure they arrive to you in the perfect condition. There has been no recent changes to our Tide Free & Gentle, and would not expect for it to have a peanut butter scent or to be more yellow. This may be a result of it being exposed to direct sunlight, and we recommend tossing it, and replacing it with a new one. We also recommend storing your detergent in a cool dry place away from direct sunlight. We'd like to learn more to see how we can help best. When you can please give us a call at (800) 879-8433. -The Tide Team

Disappointed that a “safe option” isn't safe

I have serious skin sensitivity with laundry detergent. I thought buying tide free and gentle meant that I was buying laundry detergent safe for my skin but I had to wash a pair of leggings by hand in the skin and all I had for detergent were free and gentle pods. As soon as the pod was soaked in water in the sink it turned blue just like the regular detergent. I also thought that my skin sensitivity flaring up bad again was cause by the dorm environment and communal laundry rooms but all along it had been the detergent I was using.

Multiple Bottles Smell Rancid

I switched to Free and Gentle when I couldn't find Ultra Stain Release at my local store. Loved the consistency of the first bottle and liked that there was no scent. The next bottle had a rancid smell. It was disgusting. The third bottle was normal. The latest bottle smells like rancid peanut butter. It is a different terrible smell from the other bottle. This is ridiculous. I'm going to pour the rest of this bottle down the drain as I've already gone to the store and purchased another brand. I'm done with Tide.
