Ratings & Reviews for Tide PODS 3-in-1 Laundry Detergent Pods Spring Meadow 81 Count

Smells so GROSS >> Like FISH

I thought I was losing my mind as I couldn't believe this "Spring Meadow" named detergent smelled so BAD. The PODs smell like FISH and so do my clothes after washing :( Now that I read other reviews saying the same thing, I hope you stopped making it.

Spring Meadows scent

This scent is too strong! My whole house has to be aired out after laundry day!

Smells like fish!!!!!

WOW. I literally cannot believe tide is still releasing this after reading all the bad reviews. If you have hundreds of customers saying it smells like fish… then it smells like fish !! I’m so mad I have to redo my laundry and hoping the smell comes out !

Clean laundry: "TIDE"

Tide consistently deliveries the most effective cleaning results for my laundry! I appreciate your commitment to quality!

Smells so bad

I have never been put off by the scent of laundry detergent before but I can’t believe how bad this smells. Even my husband hates it and makes him sneeze a ton. Otherwise cleans well with very little product.

Smells RANCID

The Spring Meadows scent REEKS. It is horrid, it smells too strong and of vinegar for some reason. It lingers too much and is overwhelming and disgusting.

Gets EVERYTHING clean ON COLD incl rugs

This stuff is unbelievably good! I used to think that I had to wash on hot-hot. As hot as possible... Instead, I found out that if I wash on cold with this stuff, all gets wayyyyy cleaner. I do use a front loader at my son's place. A big one. And I can run it for 1 hour or more with extra water. I do a ton of laundry because I run an Airbnb. The laundry never stops. Additionally, I found out that EVEN the long runners with rubber under mat, can be put in the front loader and come out loo...

Worst fragrance ever

I have used Tide pods for years and have been very happy with them however the Spring Meadow fragrance is terrible, I gag going into the laundry room while washing. My daughter and I actually fought over who had to use them! Unfortunately I bought a large box so I'm stuck with them.

So disappointed

I have been using Tide all my adult life. My family has always loved the smell of our clothes. The last few years the smell has changed. We are all changing our detergent. The smell is offensive. I have tried pods and other tide sense and they are all bad. Missing my tide. Susan Gardner

Smells like fish

I’ve tried adding Lysol rinse, oxygen booster, etc; in hopes of salvaging these pods. They stink so bad. Previous reviews show the manufacturer is aware of this. It’s not my washer, and I’m a competent adult who has been washing clothing for years. Please do not offer a condescending excuse for a lack of quality control.

Chemical smell

Our laundry has a strong chemical smell after using these pods. We didn’t know what was causing the smell initially, but after rewashing our laundry with a different detergent and then using these pods later on new laundry and reading other reviews, it’s clear this is caused by the pods. We are wasting money on pods, time and money on the re-washes. We have been lifelong Tide customers, very disappointing.

Love Tide, but new scent is nauseating

I usually use the Original Scent Tide, which i love. On a whim, I got the Spring Meadow scent and was immediately blown away by the stench of what I describe smells like rancid raw oysters with undertones of sweet chemical gag. It's not my machine, as the stench came directly from the container. I've never felt literal nausea from the scent of detergent, but...yikes.

Smells of fish

I went on this website to see if other he try e same experience with the smell . I usually buy original liquid tide or powder and have never come across this and have always been satisfied. I see I am not the only one and would not re-purchase this particular product

DISGUSTING-ROTTEN FISH SMELL

DISGUSTING-ROTTEN FISH SMELL. HAD TO REWASH EVERYTHING WITH ANOTHER BRAND. ROTTEN, DISGUSTING FISH. ENTIRE LOADS STINK LIKE ROTTEN FISH. (NOT JUST FISH. ! ROTTEN FISH ! SUPER GROSS. HAVE TO REWASH EVERYTHING. Expensive, disgusting product.

Very disappointed

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I thought tide was always good and worth the price. Very disappointed

Worst fishy fragrance!!!

Omg the worst fishy smell from pods!! It is not the washer, water or the clothes... it is the detergent TIDE pods 3 in 1, sprong meadow!! 49 pods!! I WILL NEVER purchase again. Back to ALL snd ARM N HAMMER.

Horrible Smell - not a "Spring Meadow"

I wish I could take this back to where I purchased it. I loathe this new "Spring Meadow" smell. This does not smell anything like it should. I have used Tide for years. But this....... HORRIBLE. Not fresh at all and almost makes me nauseous. It is too expensive to just buy something else. UGGGGG.

Tide Pods and Pickles!!!!

Almost went and bought a new washer as I couldn't get rid of that nasty odor. On a whim I tried Gain and low it's gone!! Now I googled this and find all these customers with the same issue. Not me Tide it's you!! A refund would be lovely!!!

I DO NOT like the altered Spring Meadows scent!

You took a good thing and ruined it! I used to love how my clothes smelled after washing them! Now they smell like they need to be washed again right after coming out of the washer. Please take a page from Coke and give us back our original formula. I won't be buying these again unless that happens. I will have to find an alternative that smells better.

The scent is awful

This is my first time trying the spring meadows scent and the second I opened the washer I knew I made a mistake. It puts off an awful fishy wet dog like smell. So disappointed as I got a huge box.
