What Customers Are Saying

The product offers convenient pre-measured pods with effective cleaning power and a fresh scent. However, some users report issues with the pods not fully dissolving, leaving residue or stains, and even clogging washing machine drains. The scent may also be too strong for some. Despite these drawbacks, many customers remain satisfied and find the product to be a good overall option, though they recommend trying a small quantity first to ensure compatibility.

Overwhelming scent

Would Not Recommend

I suppose the pod got my laundry clean. Hard to tell since it is hard for me to get near it; the scent (smell) is OVERWHELMING.

Scent last for days! Smells AMAZING!

These Tide Pods detergent is honestly the best and strongest smelling detergent I’ve used! We went to the water park, and these Tide Pods got out that chlorine smell from the clothes! It made our clothes smell so good and lasted for days! I love how these pods are a good size, and has a lot of product in one batch! I also love how it came with clear and easy directions, so my oldest son can do his own laundry with no hassle! In addition, I really love the feature of the baby proof lid! As a moth...

Great stain removal with a fresh long lasting scent while making laundry quick and easy.

I have been using tide pods 3 in 1 and love them. They remove stain really well, leave my clothes smelling fresh and clean, and are super easy to use. Perfect for busy days. Because you just toss one and go. Highly recommended.

I HATE TIDE PODS

Would Not Recommend

I AM 83 YEARS OLD AND I HAVE USED TIDE ALL MY LIFE AND MY MOTHER USED IT. BUT NOW IT HAS CHANGED SO MUCH THAT I AM GIVING UP ON IT. IT DOSEN'T REMOVE STAINS OR TAKE THE SMELLS OUT OR GET THE CLOTHES CLEAN OR MAKE THE CLOTHS SMELL CLEAN.

Effective and convenient!

I love using these Tide laundry pods! They are so much more convenient than pouring liquid detergent and making a mess! I don't have to guess how much to pour in, I just throw 1 or 2 pods in, depending on my load size. They are so easy to store, too! They have removed some of my toughest stains off my clothes! A true staple in our home!

Convenient and effective pods that fight stains and leave laundry smelling fresh.

I've been using Tide PODS for a while now and they are incredibly convenient. They always dissolve completely, even in cold water cycles, leaving no residue behind. They are also very effective at removing tough stains from my kids' clothes. I love the classic original scent; it leaves my laundry smelling fresh and clean without being overpowering. Definitely my go-to detergent.

Was my go-to detergent

Tide laundry detergent used to be my go-to for laundry before I had all these medical issues but since then I have switched to one for sensitive skin. This detergent has a nice clean smell and definitely gets the job done. My family still uses it and is pretty much all they use.

A sticky mess

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried it for the first time. It did not fully dissolve and plugged the front drain in my washer. I peeled it off and I'm running a cycle without soap. I should have put on a supper glove because I now can't get the smell off my fingers. Washed my hands twice and have tried Purelle. Still smells strong. I will never again use this crap.

PODs Recurring Issue - Missing PODs in Packaging

Would Not Recommend

For the second time, I have counted my PODs in my 42 pack only to find 27 inside. Last time, it was 25 and I figured it was temporary factory glitch. I am now convinced this is intentional consumer price gouging and false product advertising. I am beyond disappointed and will no longer use your product.

Changed scent- again

Would Not Recommend

I have had it up to here with tide changing the scent of their products while keeping the same label. I have a lot of sensory with smells and I’ve used the tide original pods for years and loved them. They recently added “cold water clean” to the label, but no change to scent. And then with this latest batch- same labeling- they smell completely different. Somehow both more floral and acidic? It’s terrible. I’m using mountain spring powder for now but I am upset. They have done this so many ...

Change the scent back! Causing Rashes!

Would Not Recommend

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Come on Tide! Please stop changing your product! The product smells like a cheap knock off and it’s causing me and my kids to break out in rashes! Do better and stop changing the product for the worst! Might be time to change to persil.

CHANGE THE SCENT BACK!!

Would Not Recommend

Its clear from all of the reviews out there that its a big thumbs down on the scent change. Its like wearing a bottle of perfume. I just bought my first container of pods since the scent change and it is going straight back to the store. Already had to re-wash several loads with a different brand. After all these years of using Original Tide faithfully, I guess we are breaking up. PLEASE change the scent back. Seriously. Why did you think you needed to mess with it? #leaveitalone

Scent change

Would Recommend

I have used tide Original Pods for years and just recently the smell has changed. I’m not one to leave a review, but I can’t handle the smell now. I loved it and wish they would go back to the original smell. Am I the only one who noticed a change in smell?
