A great buy

Would Recommend

Tide has been my choice of washing soap for years and I find that the product is continually being upgraded to my advantage. I use the cold water product and this allows me to help conserve on my water and electricity bill. I am pleased with the scent that is left in my clothes and they always look great.

smell

Would Not Recommend

The Mountain Spring detergent smells horrible. All of my clothes smell like they were left in the washer wet for a few days.

Stinks like someone dumped a cologne bottle in it!

Would Not Recommend

I love the "fresh" scent, but wow the Mountain Spring S-T-I-N-K-S! Unless you love a detergent that smells like some guy dumped a bottle of his cologne in it, don't buy the Mountain Spring!

Saves Money

Would Recommend

I started using Cold Water Tide about 1 year ago and I've noticed that I've saved on my electric bill, plus my clothes are still just as clean and bright as before with the Regular Tide. I like knowing I can use this product and save money and still get nice clean clothes. Love it! Thank you,

Excellent Product

Would Recommend

This is the best detergent I have ever used. Laundry settings are easy, cold/cold...cold. I've seen a noticeable drop in my hydro bill. It's also great because I work full-time; I can do laundry in the mornings without affecting the hot water available for 5 of us to shower! Stain removal is effective, clothes are bright & clean, love the product!

Love it!!

Would Recommend

I have used Cheer and Era for years and really like them both. I bought 1 bottle of Tide Coldwater to try and several of the other brands I use as I do over 100 loads of laundry a month. I LOVED the Tide. It works great, I don't have to use as much to have clean cloths and my family and I LOVE the smell! When you pull a bath towel out of the linen closet it smells so refreshing you can't help but sniff the towels each time you get one out! But It's not a strong or overwhelming smell, even for th...

Great, But....

Would Recommend

This is a terrific product. As someone who is environmentally-conscious and cost-conscious, I like having a product that prevents me from needing to use heated water. And it works WELL. But I would like to see this product made without totally unecessary dye and fragrance. I bought it because I had heard it worked really well in cold water, and as I said above, it does. But I won't buy it again until I can get a fragrance-free and dye-free version. Until then, I'm back to my old "clear" brand. I...

Pays for itself

Would Recommend

Tide cold water may cost more than bargain brands but the money saved on electricity by using cold water and the money saved not having to rewash everything to get it clean or replace it because of the stains makes it a bargain. We have a 4 year old daughter and a 3 year old granddaughter and a 1 year old grandson and the three of them make Tide cold water a great bargain!! Oh yea, we are on a well and Tide cold water keeps them from being dingy!

Great Value

Cold water only !!!! Works great. The most noticable difference is the brightness of colors. Keep it up P&G ----

A wonderfull product

Would Recommend

This is the only product on the market that will truly get your clothes clean in cold water. I was already a tide user and have been for years I have gotten so many friends and family to use this product with electricity so high these days I can save money and know that my clothes are clean and at a good price. There must be alot of fans for this, I can never find it in the original scent and sometimes I cant find it at all.

"Mountain Spring"

Would Not Recommend

I have never used anything other than Tide. I love the coldwater and have been using it for sometime. I sent my boyfriend to the store this time and not realizing there was a difference, he bought the "Mountain Spring" scent. It is by far the worst smelling detergent I have ever smelled! I did not realize it until I pulled my comforter out of the dryer. It smells like old cheap cologne! The smell it overbearing and takes your breathe away. It still lingers in the dryer. I am hoping the store wil...

Tide Coldwater

I love this new Tide Coldwater. It works much better than regular tide when using coldwater to wash with. I like to team it up with clorox coldwater bleach for my whites!!! Its the GREATEST!!!

Use regular Tide if you want clean

Would Not Recommend

This product simply doesn't work. Use regular Tide even in cold water! Regular Tide has always worked in cold water unlike Cold Water Tide. Go figure.

The best Detergent on the MARKET

Would Recommend

I was taught how to do laundry when I was 8years old. We always used TIDE. When I Asked why, my foster mom said because it never fails me. Stains are gone and colors are Brite. So as I grew up I still use TIDE at age 52 and am loving it. Thank you.

Life saver

Would Recommend

I have to say this is emparrassing, I am having problems with Propane prices and I have my water heater on a 5 gallon propane tank that goes on the BBQ pit. If I use the hot water for my washer, I would go through propane in 2 or 3 days, therefore I wash all of my cloths in cold water, this is where Tide Coldwater has saved me so much money and I just love the smell!!! Thank you soooo much for making this product. Please don't take it off the shelf, I already have a hard time finding the bottles...

Allergy

Would Not Recommend

I recently started to use Tide Cold Water with Mountain Spring additive. Unfortunately, I have started itching. I tried to think of anything new that I have eaten or used. The only thing that I changed was the washing detergent I stopped using this product and the itching is going away. I may try the product for people with allergies. I will only buy a small container to see if this makes a difference. I hope that it does.
