    I hated these. I got a free sample to try and they not only did it not clean my laundry but left soap residue all over as the pack didn't fully dissolve. I live in an apartment and pay a ridiculous price to do laundry so was not happy to have to rewash the load again. Also did not like the smell of it

    I found that these sucked. They are powder inside and you have to wash on hot which i hate doing as it shrinks the clothing. these left a film on my clothing like most powder detergent does.

    I used this at my friends house and when I dried my clothes they all had soapy residue left on them. Not sure if it was the washer or these but something did not work right.

    I would not recommend this to anyone who has a front loading washing machine. I have had the wrapping of the pod stuck with the blue liquid to several items in different loads.I had to call the repair man to look at the washer and he told me that he does not recommend the PODS for front loaders. There is too much detergent in them and they don't work. He advised me not to use them.

    Not a fan at all. One load the pod didn't even dissolve. Will not purchase again. I will continue using liquid detergent. Like the fact that I can use the liquid as a stain pre-treat as well

    I have never really liked Tide and I found these Pods okay....I'm not sure if it interacts with our water but my daughter wouldn't use anything else....to each his own, I guess!!

    I like the convenient of the Tide Pods but for me it isn't worth the money. To make my clothes smelling nice and fresh I would need to put in atleast 5-6 tide pods per load of laundry even then the smell doesn't last.

    I would definitely not be purchasing this.

    Tide Pods came out earlier this year and I’ve tried them a few times through sample programs. They do clean just as well as the other Tide laundry soap products, but I’m not too thrilled with them. The difference in price just doesn’t make it worth the cost for me. I do a lot of wash through the week ever day of the week and I go through a lot of laundry soap. Even with the stain remover and brightener added to the pod it doesn’t make it a good deal for me. You can get more in a bottle of liquid Tide, or other brand then you can with the pods for less money. I use to buy nothing but Tide, but over the last few years I’ve change to Sunlight because it cleans just as well as Tide, but it doesn’t cost as much. Even though I don’t mind the Tide Pods I just don’t see the value in them to buy any and wouldn’t recommend them to you. I’ve also heard of children getting sick because they’ve gotten a hold of them thinking they are candy and have eaten them. I realise that’s more on the parents then the children, but it’s a scary thought. So the new Tide Pods gets thumbs down from me.

    I want to start by saying there probably has never been a product by Tide that I didn't love - Except this one.

    I was so excited to try Tide Pods. I do my laundry at a laundromat, so the thought of not having to lug a heavy bottle of detergent to the laundromat with me was very appealing.

    I followed the instructions and put one pod in the washer with each load of laundry.
    A half hour passed and as soon as the washer had stopped and I opened it I immediately knew something was wrong. There was no scent to my "clean" laundry. I started to unload it when I noticed that not only was there no fresh scent, but the laundry still looked dingy.

    I ended up having to purchase new detergent at the laundromat and re-wash each load a second time.
    I was very disappointed to say the least.

    I will stick to liquid detergent from now on.

    I tried using these a number of times from samples I received. Yes it was convenient to just toss a tab in the washer but is not user friendly for my washer. You are supposed to let it fill a bit then put in the tab then clothes. My washer you put the clothes and soap in then u set the washer and it starts. Its a water saving machine. Anyways I tried it exactly how I was supposed to and put water in then the pod etc...used more water then necessary but anyhow, I found no difference in how well it cleaned except there were remnants of the pod stuck to some clothes. I find it highly overpriced as opposed to the liquid detergent. Convenient and as ny husband put it, "Man friendly" but I find it more of a pain if it is going to gum up my clothes and probably eventually my washing machine. Not worth all that extra money in my mind I would rather take a few extra seconds and measure out my detergent and get more for my money.
