Spring medow scent is very nice, they clean clothes well even in cold water, they are however a little pricey.
I have used Tide laundry detergent for a very long time and it always does a great job. I decided to try the pods just for the convenience of them and although they did as good a job as expected, I just can't justify paying more and getting less then the original liquid (or even powder).
Sorry but I may be alone on this but I find the pods do not work well and leave a gummy residue when they do not fully dissolve. I will stick to the liquid detergent.
Who would think something so small would work so great at cleaning laundry? My family loves how great smelling and clean thier clothes are. The teens think it is great just having to throw a pod in the washer and pressing start on the washer without any fuss or mess. Just love the simplicity.
I don't recommend it because it's so expensive, you can't add the quantity you want and I have a HE machine and I think the product would benefit from having more water to dilute it, the perfume is really strong and stays on the clothes for a few days which is a big negative for me.
I started using Tide Pods with the Bleach and stain remover a couple years ago. They say you only need one pod per load.....most of the time depending on the load I find I need at least two pods to get a proper wash of the clothes.
Tide is an awesome product but the Tide pods have ruined some of my laundry. I had a front loader and found that the pods did not completely dissolve in the machine leaving a hard substance stuck to my clothes. I do use liquid tide. I sure hope that they find a solution for the undissolved problem because I believe that the pods are so much more convenient.
The pods are quick and easy to use, just throw in the washer and add laundry. I was really hoping these would work well for me as I always seem to make a mess using the liquid detergent and for the most part they did. The clothes came out clean but the problem for me was that the pods would not always dissolve in the wash. I would take my clothes out of the dryer and sometimes I ended up having a pod stuck and hardened on my clothes. This did not happen all the time but if I used warm or cold water it seemed to happen. The hot wash did a better job dissolving the pods but I like to use my warm and cold wash the most. I would have to re wash the clothes in hot water to get the stuck on pods off, which was a waste of water. I used these for a few months then went back to my liquid detergent and will stick with it.
Tide appears to do a better cleaning job over many of it's cheaper competitors. I have found on several occasions Tide fails to remove a rather easy stain which has not set. I'm in the market for a detergent which will ensure yellow arm pit stains from my shifts don't build up.
i find it pricy and others work better for less. I did like to convienence of it but very pricy
