Tide Original Powder Laundry Detergent

I can’t believe we are still begging you to change the scent back to it’s REAL original. What a huge mistake you have made to change the scent. You have lost so many customers. So so sad.

Last year's Tide had 183 load per box. This year's Tide has 143 loads per box. But they are the same box and weight. Please answer, this drives me nuts.

In the interest of saving money and reducing plastic waste, I decided to try the old fashioned powdered Tide. People may say that newer is better, but you can't beat an original. I had used liquid detergents in the past but even using the bare minimum never seemed to get my clothes fully clean. Using just the minimum amount of Tide powder knocks stains out and leaves my clothes looking cleaner than before. The smell isn't overpowering either which is great. I live in a third floor walk up apartment with laundry in the basement so the box being light weight is a bonus. I use warm water in a top loading HE washer and there's no clumping at all. If you are looking for a budget friendly detergent that actually works, look no further than the original Tide.

Count me among the many people here stating that they suffered health problems from the new formula. I had symptoms similar to UTIs, BV, and/or yeast for several months but test after test came back negative. I thought I was going insane. Turned out to be my laundry detergent and resolved as soon as I switched.

Tide powder is my favorite! It has always been my mom's favorite too.

After reading all these bad reviews on the new "original" Tide, I now realize it's not in my head, it's the Tide!! Why would you change a scent that's been around and loved by so many for decades with a scent that is overwhelming, sickening, and headache-inducing to a LOT of people??!! So many of the reviewers also say that they've used Tide for years with no allergic reactions, but suddenly with the new "original" formula, they're having suddenly having allergic reactions. You keep saying "we put a lot of research into creating something everyone will like," "your satisfaction/safety is important to us," "use Tide Pods Mountain Spring scent, which is similar to the original scent," blah, blah, blah, on and on. Who are all these people you performed research with?? You didn't ask for my input, and it's obvious from most of the reviews about the new smell/formula, you didn't ask them for their input either! Instead of changing up something that's been a great, reliable staple product for us and past generations for so long, why not just, ya know, create a new fragrance/formula, and keep the REAL original fragrance/formula on the shelf as an option instead of replacing it with some inferior product. Let the people decide if they want to switch to the new smell and formula, and those of us who have depended on the REAL original product can keep using what we've known and loved for so long. The people have spoken! Please listen to us!! You are losing customers right and left over this. Is it worth it? Do you even care, or are we just a number??

The blue dye is unnecessarily dark. The scent is heavy and reminds one of low-quality discounted brands. The formula causes itching and other skin irritation. Please consider changing the formula to include less dye, more appealing scent, and less harsh chemicals.

I had been a devoted, faithful Cheer Powder user for my entire adult life (over 40 years) until a group of intelligent individuals at the parent company decided to end it's advertising and, later, stop producing it entirely (way to go, people). My grandmother had been a Tide Original Powder user for many decades. In years past, Tide Original was my backup brand for periods of time when Cheer Powder wasn't available. Recently, I bought a box, expecting the same old Tide Original that I grew up with and had been known to enjoy in years past. I couldn't use it -- had to give it to a neighbor (who has since thrown it out -- can't use it, either). The smell is now strong and offensive compared to the true, old school Tide Original and it makes us itch really bad. I read the directions to ensure I was using the product correctly. No dice. That stuff is just plain awful. Again, way to go: First, you discontinue Cheer Powder and now you've ruined my backup detergent, as well....

What are the measurements if they forgot to put the scoop in, I need actual measurements.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tide has made changes to the original formula over the past couple years. Consumer driven marketing supposedly drove this company to change a decades old product which was FIRST in the consumer's eyes for many years. Changes in ingredients to enhance its cleaning effectiveness is a different discussion than changing the smell of the original product. In my humble opinion, ORIGINAL should be removed from the box and product label. It is misleading to the consumer to sell something ORIGINAL when it is not the original product, particularly with the smell. Gone are those days when using the Tide original where your clothes smelled that familiar TIDE fresh and clean. The smell is different. Some in the industry may think for the better according to consumer research, but wisdom with age and my nose tells me otherwise. Consumer demographics and target audience are changing. Perhaps younger people know better. The older consumer knows differently. Others on this review site agree. Consumer beware, this is not the TIDE of old. You aren't just imagining this different smell.

I have used Tide original for over 15 years and the powder for at least 10. I bought the new version and the smell is so strong it aggravated my asthma. My skin is bothered by the powder too, even when I wash my hands right after scooping it. I don’t know what changed but I might have to switch to something else because it’s too much for me.

I can't use Tide anymore. Please bring the one mom used when I was a kid.

I have found tide liquid and other liquids don't clean as well as tide powder and not as cost efficient. I was going thru a giant bottle of liquid a week. This is a scam. Don't cancel the powder It works better and is more cost efficient

I have been using this product for decades. After using the new formula I have been breaking out in Eczema and hives all over my body. My face swole and I had to go to the hospital. What ever is in this new formula is perfumed and I’m very disappointed that I can no longer have a safe detergent to purchase.

I've been a loyal Tide original user for over 2 decades but the new scent is so horribly overpowering that I get a headache. I had to put my clothes back through the wash cycle without detergent TWICE just to lower the scent enough to be able to wear them.

The smell is awful! I have to wash my clothes in other detergent just to get to a level that my family can tolerate! “ tide” smell os so strong it’s caused watery/swollen eyes runny nose and nausea…. What ever you did to the beloved tide brand which is the only brand I have ever known …. Please go back

I've been using Tide Original powder for decades. A year or so ago, they changed the scent. I am allergic to perfumes, and cannot tolerate the new scent. I've seen many reviews that say the same. Bring back the original scent, and I'll return. But for now, no more Tide. :(

Tide, please please please please look at the reviews and listen to your customers and give them what they want. Put this newer stinky scent to bed, everyone keeps complaining about the same thing. Do the right thing!

I changed back to powder after advised that it would prevent build up of mold in my front load washer door that the liquid detergent produces. The smell is very off setting, not like the original. It did prevent mold build up as was my original goal. Thinking I just got a bad box I bought a second smaller box. Same smell. Very deceiving saying original scent when clearly it had changed. Time to change brands. Very disappointing. If you go back to your original formula, I will be a returning customer.

Clothes come out smelling as if they have never even been washed! I’ve used Tide for40 years and tide changed the scent of original Tide several years ago but now the last box i opened is sickening to smell! The clothes don’t smell fresh or clean when coming out of the washer and after drying they don’t smell clean! Tide, you have already gotten rid of clean breeze scent, so I had to start using the “original” that WAS NOT original anymore. Now I’ll have to find another detergent just like everything else that’s disappeared in the last few years! No quality whatsoever!!! I don’t know who Tide is catering to now but I’m sure your loyal customers are leaving in droves!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So we’ve wasted more of our hard earned money on a trusted product. I understand the need to change things but don’t continue to call it original. The new smell is horrendous. I’ve not only got a whole huge box of detergent I can’t use, I’ve also got to rehash my clothes! And search for a new detergent my husband won’t be allergic to. Stupid decision Proctor

My family has always used tide. I wanted to go back to the original scent, but it is not the original scent. I have allergies, and the “new original” Tide irritates them and gives me a severe headache. I have also tried using the scent free tide, and the clothes don’t smell clean it all. Please go back to your original scent… It’s much better. If the scent of the original Tide remains the same, I will have to start looking for new detergent.

Why do manufacturers feel they have to change a great product? This new smell is horrible. The entire house smells terrible and I have to rinse the clothes a second time to try to get rid of the overbearing smell. Lucky me, I bought two bottles.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This smell is HORRIBLE!!!! I have to wash my clothes twice just to try to get the scent out.. its unbearable not satisfied with this product, the best thing about washing clothes is that fresh clean smell, but smelling them now after washing them with Tide just puts me in a foul mood never thought that would happen with laundry.

Seriously I bought a second bottle in hopes that the first bottle was just a bad batch… nope it smells like a sickening flower.. why would you do that!?!?! Now I have to find a new brand of detergent

I just bought my last box of Tide original. I started having an allergic reaction to it on my eyes and armpits. I know you changed something with scent, and who knows what else. I used it for cloth diapers and it was great. But now I'm done. I am visiting the dermatologist now for skin allergens because you messed with a staple product. Ugh. Do I recommend it? It's great if your don't react to it! And you can reach out to me via email. I won't be calling.

Tide original powder contains more OBA then Tide mountain Spring powder?

I’m so disappointed in the new Tide scent. It smells like a cheap chemical dominated product. We are being gaslighted by efficiency experts who study environmental issues and I don’t believe they can’t do better. People like fragrance and somehow anything that brings life and joy they seem to ban- misery loves company. I’m not purchasing anymore.

I’ve been using tide powder for my cloth diapers for almost 3 years and have just needed to buy more so this is my first time using the new formula. It’s HORRIBLE! My cloth diapers are not getting clean at all. It’s frustrating when a good thing is changed and is made worse. This has been a major complaint amongst the cloth diapering community.

Let me add my voice to the chorus of voices hating the new scent. Overpowering, even after extra rinse. Last Tide product I’ll ever use

I used to love to scent of Tide pods but now with the new scent, my clothes and laundry smell worse than my toilet cleaner! Why why why did you change the scent?!

I have been looking for the original scent and this isn’t it, I thought I had a bad batch so ended up buying another and sure enough it smelled the same. You guys should definitely bring back the old classic scent as it smelled fresher and not at chemically as the new one.

I’ve tried to self adjust with the new scent but I just can’t. As much as I love tide. I’ve literally used it my whole life (36 years) ! But I can’t anymore. I’m breaking up with tide until the old original scent comes back. Seriously if it ain’t broke, why fix it?! Tide was the BEST laundry detergent hands down. No question. And then you tried to make it even better by fixing it, but you broke it. Along with my heart 😔

I would make 1 change. It is frustrating trying to dig down thru powder to get the scoop. Can it be placed at the top. I always spill a bit searching. Thank you

Why would y’all change the smell? I haven’t bought it since.

I’ve used tide my whole life never had any issues and then all of a sudden the last batch seems like I’m highly allergic to it. I’ve changed to a diff detergent for sensitive skin and it’s helped a lot . Kinda disappointed as I loved tide.

Why why why did you change the smell? Original Powdered Tide used to be one of the best products on the detergent aisle. It was my go-to for deep stain removal, whites, workout clothes and my boys’ sports uniforms. And for everything else I used Tide Pods (spring meadow.) I stock up for months so I didn’t even realize the scent had changed until this weekend. I first noticed it with my whites using the powder— the smell was so strong I thought I had mistakenly spilled some shower cleaner. For my next round I opened my tide pods and ran the cycle and realized it was the Tide. I found a package of my old pods and compared the two. The new smell is horrific. I have had to Rewash everything. Unless it changes back, I am going to have to find a new brand. You cannot wear the clothes washed in the new smell without getting a headache.

What happened to the original tide scent? This new scent is horrible it smells rancid, like vomit. I will never purchase another bottle of tide original scent, the “original” original scent smelled great. The scent now is just gross.

Something is off. I’ve been using tide pods forever. Not sure if I got a bad batch but the scent is strong, bad, overwhelming. I won’t be purchasing again.

I bought a big thing of this.. and it smells terrible. Not at all how it used to. Massively disappointed and annoyed. I rewashed an entire load, that’s how much I hate it

For everyone who deplores the new "original" scent as much as I do, get the Mountain Spring powder. Seriously. It's a much lighter fragrance that just smells "clean", and isn't sickeningly sweet and cloying. No, it doesn't smell like the old "original" scent, but it definitely comes close to it.

I started back using tide powder recently and really enjoy it the smell I love especially when using to clean the house. My only issue is that recently I am having a hard time finding tide powder in original scent. And noticed that the weight is still the same on the large box but it now says 113 loads where it used to say 102 loads. But the weight and ounces are still the same. Are you taking up the price on this size soon and trying to fool us into thinking is it is more when it is really the same?

What happened to the ORIGINAL Tide scent I LOVED as a kid??!!! The new scent is over-powering floral and does not come close to the REAL original!! Doing laundry is a pain - at least take me back to my childhood scent to make the task bearable!

Why can't you sell both scents? The original was way better. But that's just my opinion. Please bring back the original scent tide!! I love your brand and don't want to switch but I can't stand the new scent!! Please!!

What happened to the scent everyone loved?? Why change a good thing? To save money. That's why. I'm sure I'm going to get a canned reply about how this was "researched a whole bunch to make sure..." blah blah, ad nauseum. Bring back the ORIGINAL "original" scent and I bet you'll see your reviews take a pretty big jump That said, I'm hugely disappointed by the latest formulation. The scent is not refreshing. It's overpowering. It's also not the original scent. It cleans fine I suppose. I stopped using it. Did I mention the scent....? Bring back the OG original please.

How about that! Leave it alone. Great with Downey. It was fresh and clean. My neighbors loved the smell coming from my dryer vent and me to!! Enough with changing…keep the quality!

The new scents smell terrible! Mountain Spring used to smell so good.

Please bring back the original scent. The new scent is so sweet and gross, not fresh like it used to be. The “try Mountain Spring” suggestion is no good, either. It doesn’t smell like the original.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been a loyal Tide consumer for decades, and was able to tolerate formula and scent changes in the past. This latest change however, is just awful, it doesn't smell clean just very perfumed. Family and friends say the same, that they're on the hunt for a replacement brand. Their recommendations to use fragrance free, or other scents is just aggravating. Tide now has an excessive amount of options on the shelves, why mess with the OG. I hope they go back to what the consumers want.

The new scent of Tide original is gross! I had to throw the entire box away. After 25 years of Tide I am switching to a different brand now. Why couldn’t you just leave the “Original” the “Original”?!

Please fire whoever decided to change the Original Scent Tide powder to whatever horrific stench this nightmare is. My family has been using Tide since the 70's and never had a problem. Now, even after leaving the box in the garage for 2 weeks it still reeks of a chemical spill. On top of that, the smell won't leave the clothes even after repeated washings (4) without any detergent! Please go back to the Original formula and save the "updates" for other products designed for heavy smokers who live next to landfills. Also, your responses to comments are ridiculous when you read over the literally hundreds of negative reviews on this page. LISTEN TO YOUR ACTUAL CUSTOMERS!!! (And yes, I know how ridiculous it is to be shouting on a detergent review!)

I really appreciate how effectively Tide cleans clothes, which is obviously the main objective for a laundry detergent. However, the scent has steadily gone downhill and that’s why I can’t rate it at 5 stars. I grew up in the 80’s/90’s and can still remember how clean and fresh my clothes smelled. The scent was not overpowering, it was lovely and had staying power. Please consider bringing back the true scent from years past that many people miss and others will grow to love too. Please!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The new upgraded scent is way to strong and fake smelling. Please go back to the scent from 15 years ago. That had a light clean smell.

opened up my new box of tide laundry powder.. ran a load, and was completely overwhelmed by the new scent!! i ran extra baking soda in the wash to try to get some of the scent out and it’s kinda fine, but after a week, the entire hallway my laundry room is in smells like this new scent, and my clean towels linens that share my laundry detergent cabinet are now completely saturated with the smell too. awful! i can’t imagine all this scent wafting around isn’t harmful to breathe in.. at least with the old formula it smelled fresh and nice… i grew up with the original tide powder detergent and came back to using it after we bought our first house. i miss the smell of “home” i’ve come to associate with the old “original” formula. i honestly might have to transfer this detergent powder to some kind of sealed bucket to keep the overpowering scent from permeating through literally everything. i really, REALLY hope there will be enough complaints to bring the previous formula back. also (this is a slightly older problem), the box no longer has an overhanging lip to keep the lid closed, which is a BIG problem with using the detergent when there are curious pets around. i sure won’t be in a hurry to stock up on tide powder anytime soon.. and i hope when i’m out of this terrible-smelling one in a year, we can have the original “original” scent back! otherwise, i’ll be on board with others in declaring i’ll be switching to another brand.

I am a big fan of Tide products. I usually use Pods but in effort to save water used in Pods, I switched to Original powder. My complaint is that it does not have that Original Scent smell. It lacks a smell. Tide original would fill our laundry room with a wonderful scent before. I do like the efficiency with cleaning our laundry. I am thankful that has not changed. Glad to read your team is working on this. Meanwhile I will hang in there.

You keep changing your formulas and have pushed me right out from using any of your products. You changed your original scent years ago and I could not get that scent out of my clothes. I started using the unscented that doesn’t work at all and I started mixing detergents. You have even done this with Downy. Good bye. You have lost a 35 year customer.

Sorry, but the last box I got smells awful. I had a tiny bit left of my previous box (it lasts me forever) and low and behold I’m not crazy! They smell completely different. If you want a different scent that’s fine (although I’m not sure who would buy it!), but why lie and try to pass it off as the original scent. I won’t use it and there goes my hard earned $ :( I’m not happy w/ feeling like I got scammed, but if you ever bring back the old scent I’ll come back. Until then I’ll have to use a different product….

Tide has changed the original scent; you do see the problem with these words together, right? When “original” is no longer the original, there’s a problem. Now I have a large box of Tide that I can’t stand. And I’m supposed to try the Mountain Spring to see if that’s the right one? I still think powdered Tide does the best job of cleaning of anything out there; the pods are for the birds. I’m going to be peeved if 1) Mountain Spring stinks and 2) I can’t find it in powdered form. Value and Quality can’t be rated higher since I have spent money on a large box of Tide that I can’t stand to use!

Why did you add the blue crystals to your original powdered tide. We do NOT like your new formula and wish you’d bring the original powdered formula back to market! Thank you, The Gilmore Family

It’s obvious your formula has changed. Please put out the old Tide once again and my family and I will start purchasing your product again

I am a long user of Tide Powder Detergent. Yes I strayed due to price, but came back. It really does take out 7 day old stains. This is THE ONLY detergent that gets my husband's NC socks clean!! The only thing I would change is the smell. I've been using the Mountain Spring scent which is nice but doesn't leave your clothes fresh smelling without using scent beads. Please bring back the scent from the 60s that was delightful!! Or make the powder in the same scents as the liquid and or Pods. PLEASE NEVER STOP MAKING THE POWDER!!! I LOVE THIS STUFF

I have used Tide Original for 25 years and the new scent is making me sick. Please bring back the Original. This is gross.

Why fix something that isn't broken? I grew up on original scent tide, but unfortunately now my entire family has insisted on changing detergents. So disappointing. What's funny is the majority of those leaving feedback reflect the same SCENTiment (see what I did there?...). Please consider a CocaCola move, and go back to the classic tide scent. Thank you.

Tide seems to still clean okay, but the smell is so foul that I have to stop using it. I thought it was "just me" but my husband who has sensitive skin and requires another detergent for his clothing asked me to stop using it on my own clothing because he said they smell "putrid." I agree. TIDE are you listening? Plenty of other people also loathe this new, bad odor.

I am so disappointed with the new fragrance to the original tide. You should have called it a different name and leave the original alone. Not every one wants to smell strong fragrances on their clothes. There are many people that are sensitive to chemicals/ strong odours. This scent is the worst!!!

I have used Tide powder for many years and have always like it; however, the current fragrance is off-putting. I remember the days when my mother used " Clothes Line Fresh " powder and I always enjoyed bedding down with the fresh, subtle scent of Tide.

THE SMELL HAS BECOME SO STRONG THAT AFTER FIFTY YEARS I CAN NO LONGER USE TIDE POWDER. BRING BACK THE PRIOR LIGHT SCENT. I HAVE STOPPED USING THIS.

Bought the original scent in powder and it was so strong even just sitting in the opened box. I had such an asthma attack we had to wrap it up in two garbage bags and throw it away. Will you PLEASE bring back the true original scent FORMULA? PLEASE. Most of us long time Tide customers do not like strong over powering and lingering smell In our home, in our clothes and in our bed linens and your “Original” original was just perfect the way is was and the way it cleaned. I am truly missing and nostalgic for the True Original Tide. Thank you! Again please make us happy and bring back the correct Original- will the real Original please stand up?

We used Tide original when I was a child, a long time ago - 50"s. When I got older on my own, I tried other brands. but none compared to Tide. I still use it and the powder only. I do not like pods. Anyway, it is getting harder to find any Tide powder. Are you going to discontinue completely? Lord I hope not.

I've been using this for some time and this new scent is not at all the same. The smell is not pleasant. I will have to look for another brand. I can't be the only one complaining about this. I actually paid more because of the scent.

New scent is awful! If you are going to change the scent create a new label. The liquid original scent smell is overpowering so I switched to powder. Now the powder has a new "original scent" that was snuck in. When I see friends I don't want to smell what detergent they use as their cologne or perfume. Ridiculous. Don't change something that people have loved for years and years. Do these comments really get shared with the research and development departments? People are upset. Do something!

Been loosing sleep over itchy skin after using Tide for 20 years… went to the doctor and we couldn’t figure out why ive been having a allergic reaction. Googled if Tide changed their formula recently and well. Found my answer. Good job guys. You ruined and good thing and caused me physical pain. Never again.

Why did you have to go and change a good thing? I've used tide original my whole 58 years and my mother used tide original her whole 55 years before me. Please go and make Tide great again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used only Tide for the last 40 plus years. It has always clean well with a light scent that doesn’t scream laundry day! I do not like the new scent at all, it lingers everywhere and I did my first load and my whole house smells of it. Sadly for the first time in 40 plus years I need to fine a new laundry soap. I have I get rid of the headache I got from the new scent first.

I've suffered from chronic migraines for years, which are triggered and exacerbated by perfumed products, including detergents, and so have used fragrance-free detergents for a long time. A couple of years ago, I was so happy to find that I could tolerate the light, pleasant fragrance of Tide Original Powder, and have used it ever since! However, I opened my latest box and have been so disappointed in the change that's been made to the fragrance. I find it extremely cloying, and I'm concerned that I won't be able to use it if it triggers migraine headaches for me. Please consider going back to the previous formula. Thank you.

I recently switched back to Tide Powder Detergent because I wasn't satisfied with my other laundry detergent and I wanted to use Tide as my overall household cleaner for washing floors, cupboards etc. Like most reviewers I was incredibly disappointed to open the box and discover that the "Original Scent" is nothing like the Tide Original that I grew up with! Old posts online suggested that Mountain Spring was the "new Original scent" but when it was available you couldn't buy it in the powder laundry detergent. Now it looks like that scent is discontinued too. It's ridiculous that a major brand would change the scent of it's products when you have decades of dedicated customers who had zero complaints. Now instead of just adding to your scent line-up you've alienated your most loyal customers. Deeply disappointed doesn't even describe it for me.

People, you need to really go back and revisit the powder especially if you have a high efficiency machine. First of all its more environmentally friendly with a cardboard box and less water in the manufacturing process. Second, have you looked at amounts? You need only a little bit. Next, it dissolves beautifully!! Now this is where I had issue in the past, I’d find some undissolved granules-but not anymore. And the smell is quite fresh and clean and not overpowering. Of course it deep cleans and clothes look great as always with Tide. So, I really, really think Tide Original powder is an excellent product and if you haven’t tried it recently you definitely should!

From the negative reviews here and other cleaning social media posts, you should seriously consider bringing back the old Original Acti-Lift formula. It's not just a laundry product to many, it's also a household cleaning product. I sure miss that good clean scent. This new Fast Dissolve "original" stinks. My clothes do not smell clean nor does my house after I mop. Please, I really don't want to switch to Gain. Please bring back the former scent.

I had been using Tide for at least 30 years. When you switched the original scent quite a few years ago, at least the Mountain Spring smelled like the original and I stayed with Tide. Then you switched the Mountain Spring scent, so I switched to scent free (after I used up all the old mountain spring scented liquid I had stored up.) I find the scent free pods do not clean as well. I have to use more pods than recommended to get the clothes clean. Recently, I stayed at my daughter's house. She uses the current tide original pods. I couldn't fall sleep because the sheets smelled so strongly of the detergent. And, it gave me a bad headache. I washed the sheets multiple times with scent free but could not get the smell out of the sheets. Why haven't companies learned from the Coke disaster. Don't change the formula of a popular product. Now I have to look for detergent from another company.

I’ve had issues, sensitivity to scents, etc with many detergents but this was my go to. Load after load of the tide original powder. And now it smells like garbage and my clothes seriously seem less clean. Who does that?! Go mess with your dumb pods and leave this alone. I can barely tolerate that nasty smell. There is NO reason to pick the name brand anymore.

Loyal user of 30 years and I’m stopping using Tide and throwing away whatever I have left. This new formula is beyond unbearable. I can’t stand the smell and My BODY is having an adverse reaction to it. It’s beyond awful.

I can't recall when I began using tide laundry detergent. College perhaps.. It's been at least 20 years. I now have to end this relationship. One of us changed for the worst and it wasn't me. Why, why, WHY do marketing people believe successful things MUST be changed? Did sales of original tide decrease during the pandemic? Very unlikely... Anyways, the new "improved" yet unannounced change has left me with clothes smelling so strongly I cannot wear them and have to store them in my garage. The smell began to overwhelm my entire 2400 Sq ft house with just a single laundry basket of clothes. I tried washing again with just warm water and double rimsing in both my top-load and HE machines. Natural fibers do better but I fear I'll have to donate and replace several hundred dollars of synthetic fabric athletic training clothes. I can't breath in that much smell. Who on earth convinced a corporate board this was a BETTER let alone a good idea?! We already smell like shampoo, soaps

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been using original (boxed powder) Tide detergent for over 40 years, but I'm afraid we just can't handle this new scent anymore. My husband has been saying to me that he noticed and felt and smelled something different with our Tide and I told him it was his imagination. I have never been any fan of any scents/fragrances mostly due to my asthma, but I was used to the original (old) Tide. Our granddaughter helped us find this: Recently, we updated the formula for our Tide Original Powder, adding freshness technology for a nice scent during the laundry process and more scent after the clothes dry. Our testing and research showed us this was a great addition ........ A PERFUME SYSTEM UPGRADE? So many people have so many different allergies and so many establishments are trying to adopt fragrance-free policies. We understand that many folks like to smell like a bottle of fragrance and that's why there's Axe and Gain laundry detergent and other potent options. Couldn't you have kept your foo-foo fragrances in your other products/models and LEFT ORIGINAL TIDE ALONE?? PLEASE GO BACK TO THE WAY THIS HAS BEEN FORMULATED FOR THE LAST FEW DECADES. We have been soooooo disappointed in your re-formulation the last several months. Make it Tide ORIGINAL Powder Laundry Detergent again :-)

I am not sure if Tide is trying to pull a “New Coke” marketing scheme, by selling a truly horrible overwhelming scent. In other words, Tide needs to bring back the original scent, a Tide “Classic” if you will. I really don’t want to go to a less effective laundry soap brand, but I must if Tide thinks that this is the correct way to go.

I recently decided to go back to an old favorite and was in for a surprise. When I opened the box there was a new scent and it’s horrible. Honestly, it stinks to me and apparently a lot of other people who loved the old scent. If we want to use febreeze we could add it ourselves or offer it with the febreeze scent you like. I beg you to change it back to the original. I looovvveeeddd the way it made my clothes smell without adding all of these new additives. Listen to your customers and go back to the old recipe please. You may lose more consumers.

I have been using Tide powder for 10 years - the scent was light, loved that the packaging wasn’t plastic, and my clothes always came out clean. The new scent is so overpowering and nearly impossible to get out of my clothes. As a healthcare worker who relies on neutral scents and adequate cleaning power when washing my scrubs, Tide had never let me down, until the scent was changed. I’ve had multiple patients express how strong and off putting my clothes smell, which is the last thing I want to think about when caring for sick individuals. I’m sorry to say you’ve lost another customer.

Every stitch of my clothing, since birth 51 yrs ago, has been washed in Tide Originsl powder. I stayed true to Tide even when I was broke in college and refused to use lesser, cheaper brands. I'm an "all natural, organic" consumer but I refuse to give up my Tide. That's how much I loved Tide. But, NOW, I'm seriously looking for another detergent because they've changed the scent and it's unbearable. The smell of freshly cleaned sheets made my family excited to go to sleep. It's pretty bad when my three kids 9-13 asked me what's wrong with the sheets and want them changed because the smell like bad perfume. Please, Tide, please go back to the true original scent! I rather smell essential oil based detergent than whatever this new scent is.

I've loved using Tide powder for more than just my laundry, but now I am in search for a new all-purpose cleaner. The newly formulated Original scent is extremely unpleasant and it lingers in the clothes when I wash them. I am wasting money and electricity and time because I am running an extra rinse/spin cycle on all my clothes to help minimize the smell (this works a little bit). If Tide listens to its customers and scraps this scent, this once-loyal customer will come back.

To say I’m disappointed is an understatement. I have been a loyal Tide Powder Detergent user for over 20 years and recently after purchasing a box I noticed a difference in scent and thought it was a fluke until my husband purchased another box and confirmed my Suspicions. The new scent is overwhelming and the aftermath of the scent after washing is not the same. Tide powder detergent is the reason I loved doing laundry and made it one of my favorite chores to do now that is all gone. Please go back to the original scent I don’t want to have to change my laundry detergent.

Growing up, we never used Tide because my mom was allergic. I’ve used many different brands. I tried just about every treatment and remedy to get sweat stains out with no change. Even the very expensive Persil. On a whim, I tried Tide powder. Imagine my surprise when it took out the sweat stains! No pretreat or anything. I always thought Tide was overhyped but it really does work. Also took a consistent dinginess out of my white bath towels. I don’t know why everyone is harping about the scent. I do not find it overpowering or offensive at all. It smells fine to me and I usually oppose heavy scents. Cheap FOCA and Ariel detergent smells way stronger and offensive to me. Tide does NOT leave a lingering odor. Only a faintly clean scent. I like Tide powder and will use it from now on.

I have been using original Tide powder all my life, but no longer. The new smell nauseates me. In fact I had to set it outside after I opened it. I am actually glad to hear that you changed the scent, because I was wondering if it smelled different because I had Covid a few months ago. I liked the fact that the old Tide had very little residual smell. New scent gives me a headache.

Can't be in the house while laundry is being done! I agree don't fix what ain't broken. Already purchased another product because of the smell.

We have been using tide for decades and liked the mild clean smell. The changes now keep making me think my clothes have gone sour. No Bueno

I’ve been using Tide original scent powder for over 40 years. The recent change made to the scent is so strong and overpowering, it totally bothers my nose and smells like a cheap air freshener. Very sad that you had to change such a great and time-proven product. You’ve just lost another customer and will be seeking a refund. Please go back to your old formulation.

One of the things I loved about Tide Powder (been using it for about 50 years) was that the smell was never overpowering. Not anymore. I've stopped buying Tide and now buy another powder brand. The smell is awful and it just won't go away. I could live with it if it dissipated over time but I actually had family members ask if I was wearing some strange perfume when I wore clothes that I'd washed weeks ago! Really? What were you thinking. Maybe you want to cater to people who don't bathe?? Anyway, you've lost me and many people I've spoken with by adding this "follow you everywhere" smell. Bad decision.

I have been a Tide original powder user for more years than I can remember. I liked it that it didn’t have much fragrance as I am allergic to many perfumes. I am disappointed with this product and will have to find another brand to use. Please bring back the original formula!

I bought a new box of tide and noticed that while the same size and weight box used to include 180 loads and now only covers 143. If you examine the instructions on both boxes, you see that a medium load used to require 1/5 cup and now requires 1/4 cup. Is the new formula less effective and therefore requires more? Or is the change just designed to get consumers to use and purchase more detergent than necessary? This is not the first time tide has done this. A few years ago the same box provided more than 200 loads.

Have been using Tide for years and always loved the scent of clean sheets after a wash. Just bought a new box and find the scent much more perfumie and off putting, that I had to air out my sheets. WILL NOT BUY THIS AGAIN! Sad they have to change a good thing...

The new scent is so strong it is horrific! I switched from the powder to the liquid, and it is the same thing. The scent makes me sneeze when I dispense the product. Then when I dry my clothes, it is even worse, the whole house smells. Then I think I am in the clear until I wear my clothes, and the scent will just not go away. I have been using Tide for 30 years. I will be switching to a new detergent. Sorry, but you have lost a long-time customer.

I already wrote one review on how terrible the smell is but now I must write another review. Not only is the smell horrible but it lingers and is giving me a migraine headache. I have been a faithful Tide user for 40 years and loved how it smelled. It was a clean fresh smell that was mild and pleasing to the senses. This new "Original" Tide has an overpowering perfume smell that permeates everything. In desperation I tried Tide Clean Breeze and it was even worse. It was mentioned by the manufacturer to try Tide Mountain Spring - that this is closer to the original smell. I will try it but I will probably have to stop using Tide since they are likely using this new fragrance technology in all of their products. When I was at the store today looking for another brand to try I noticed ALL the scents were overpowering --- even more so than Tide. Sadly even the more natural brands are also doing crazy strong scents. Who decided we want to smell like strong lingering perfume???

The best thing about the old Tide original was the fact the smell was clean and faint. No one needs horrible scents to make their clothes cleaner. The smell in my laundry room makes me want to vomit. Why did you fix something that wasn't broken

I thought I was having a problem with my sense of smell until I read the scent was changed. The box was in the trunk of my car and the awful smell was overwhelming as I drove home. I’m using it with an extra rinse, but I will try a different brand of detergent next time. The product was fine before so why the change? For a product this expensive I expect much better.

The new scent of Tide is terrible! Bring back the original tide scent we all loved

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Why change? The floral and fruit notes, stink! No one wants this in their laundry!

I have used Tide my entire life and it was perfect and now it has been ruined by a strong offensive new sent that gives me a headache. I can’t use it anymore - it’s so sad - it was my favorite detergent for decades.

I've been using Tide HE powdered detergent for years and years. I avoid GAIN because it's scent is nauseating. Now I've got to find another product. Not everyone likes scented clothing and, well, you've managed to "take the cake" of messing up a perfect product. I'll be looking for another brand.

New scent on Tide original powder is too powerful. What were you thinking? The change is not good.

The new tide powder box does not have the lip that would seal the box anymore.When I pull the tab to open the box it stays open all the time does not over lap anymore. I have to take all the powder out of the new box and put in the old box.

I have used and loved Tide powder for years. My most recent box has an awful perfume smell. I’m very sensitive to scents and will be returning the box and finding a new product to use. I’m very disappointed.

I have used Tide exclusively for 25 years. The new scent is way too strong and perfume-y. Bring back the fresh scent you have always had!

The new smell is nothing like the original, im incredibly disappointed bc i just bought 102 loads worth of this powder. i don’t always use powder detergent so i actually still have some of the original scent; it’s incredible how different it is; and honestly it just doesn’t smell like laundry to me anymore

How many bad reviews and lost customers will it take for P

I have used Tide Original powder detergent for a number of years and was surprised to find that the last box I purchased has a STRONG and VERY UNPLEASANT scent. I do not understand why this change has been made to what was a very good product. Labeling it as Tide Original is misleading. I'm planning to return this box to the store and look for a different brand of laundry detergent. Please consider offering the previously labeled Tide Original product again!

I have LOVED Tide powder for many years. It works better than anything and I've enjoyed the original scent. However, you have amped up the scent and it is way too strong. It lingers far too long and is no longer nice. Sadly, I will be switching to another detergent.

The new scent is totally overwhelming! The best one ever was the true original, and the last one wasn’t bad at all. This one is just way too cloying and makes it seem like you’re trying to cover up something rather than just being fresh smelling.

I was a lifelong Tide user but the 2022 scent "upgrade" is unbearable. It makes the whole house stink. Change it back! Until you do, you have lost this customer.

We won’t be buying tide again until the old scent comes back.

Listen to your customers. We want the old scent back. This is not an improvement, and you have alienated loyal customers. What a disappointment, with absolutely no warning on the box that the scent has changed. Absolutely disgusting. This goes beyond having a personal preference for scent, this is a clear downgrade and a departure from what made tide great.

This product is essentially unusable for my family now. After using nothing but this for a decade, we can't stand the smell and it just cakes up in my washer's detergent dispenser. It's honestly fascinating (and not in a good way) that it can cause the amount of stink it does when so little of it reaches the actual laundry. I used it on our bedding and it's been triggering my husband's allergies to the point of misery. Why fix what didn't need fixing? Was it even tested before being put it into production?

The new smell of the Tide Powder is overwhelming. I had to check the box twice to see if I purchased the wrong one. It even leaves my machine with a strong odor. I have used the Tide Powder for 40 years but the smell is driving me away.

I have used TIDE HE powder for 23 years…..and just opened a box of the new improved quick dissolving formula…..it SMELLS horrible and is over powering, and does NOT dissolve quickly… in fact it does not dissolve…..it cakes up in my dispenser! If this is the improvement, then I will be switching to a different detergent! I am not sure why P

You changed the scent.Bummer. The previous "original" was the best scent on the market-head and shoulders above the competitors- it smelled like a fresh water lake or laundry drying outside in summer.T his new scent is like nil-odor-like a cheap motel room.It's toxic.And dissolves in a different way. Please offer your large clientele of the Real Original Powder.I can't buy the new scented one and have given the first and only box away.

I LOVE Tide powder, it works better than anything and I've used it for years. However, I just bought a new box and finally got the god awful new scented stuff that EVERYONE I KNOW HAS BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT. The bad news was accurate, my entire basement stinks of it. It's giving me headaches and I will sadly be returning to my previous brand.

I have used Tide Original Powder laundry detergent for years. It has been a wonderful product to use. I just finished up a large box and opened a new one today. Immediately upon opening I could tell something was different - an overpowering smell was coming from the new box. The smell is not a pleasant one. I am very unhappy with this - I guess I will need to find a new detergent and I hope I can get my money back from this purchase. It's a shame Tide changed this product!

We have always used powdered tide and the smell was always good, not too strong but just enough to give a clean laundry scent after drying. Im sensitive to smells so this is a big factor for me since I easily get migraines. The new smell is TERRIBLE. It’s incredibly perfumey and floral, instant headache. What a mistake though, definitely never purchasing again unless the scent is changed back.

We’ve been using Orignal Tide powder for ages, because it works great and smelled nice. The new scent is horrible. It smells like cheap perfume or air freshener and gives me an instant headache. The old scent was so light and never gave me headaches. The new one lingers on everything, including my baby’s skin which never used to happen. It completely ruined two bibs (I’ve soaked them in vinegar, rewashed them, etc — nothing makes it better). I will never buy this again (unless the old scent is restored). Super disappointing since it works so well.

Please put the "original" smell back in the Tide powder. Just bought a new box and this change is so disappointing. Had to start using dye and fragrance free Downey for the same reason.

I just opened a new box last week and a week later my laundry room still smells awful like fake room freshener. My clothes stink now too. This is the only kind offered at big box stores like Sam's Club and Costco for a decent price for large families. Please remove the horrible fragrance.

I opened up a box of powdered tide and it smelled like someone had tossed a leaky bottle of axe spray in there.

I have been a loyal Tide user since growing up in my mother’s house. My dad worded for P

Why on earth did you change the scent ,,, I have used Tide original powder for over 50 yrs and the new box I just bought is stinking out my house and making my clothes stink ,,, Tide original always had a clean soap smell that caused less allergies inmates family and they always advertised that ,,, you should recall it and change the scent back to show your support of you customers ,,, in this day and age with so many people developing more allergies to scents I don’t understand why you would change it and the person who’s bright idea should be let go ,,,, I tried you pods and 5hey left my washer stinking like mildew after a while and m6 clothes the same way ,,, I would love to know why you took a great product and purposely ruined it??

The new scent is the horrible! My clothes and home smell terrible. The smell is worse than rotting garbage. Please change back to the original.

I’ve been using original Tide powder my whole life because it didn’t have a strong scent and worked really well. I can’t buy it anymore the new horrible perfume smell is just awful. The laundry room stinks after doing laundry. Roses really smell like doo doo. I’ll have to find a new detergent :(

I have used Tide for years. Particularly because it works well and has a mild scent. I just gag every time someone gets in my vehicle that uses gain or some similar product or when their clothes are covered with scent boosters-I just hate it. It makes me feel like people are covering themselves in chemicals. Tide you have done yourself a huge disservice by changing your scent.

I just opened a new box of powdered Tide and can’t believe how awful it smells. Like cheap car freshener. This happened awhile ago with the Tide pods and I had to switch to unscented fresh and clear (not sure if they ended up switching back to the original scent). So sad this is now happening with powdered Tide which I use on everything from laundry to household cleaning. Throwing away a brand new box and hoping they announce a return to the original scent. Until then, I won’t be able to purchase.

Hello - I too have been using Tide powder for several years and been happy with the performance of the product. I recently purchased what I thought was the same Tide Power (rated for HE washers) and am overwhelmed by the heavily perfumed smell emanating from the clothes that I have washed. I am not one to be affected by odors but I can tell you, this is so heavily scented, it is really awful and it definitely is bothering me! Especially when I wash my re-wearable face masks. It is terrible and I too with all these other customers urge you to return to the other formula. #ifitaintbroke !!

so disappointing, the smell gives me headaches.I tried to give the box away on FB free group..and I still have it!!

I’ve used Tide powder for years. I don’t love overpowering scents, and I find most liquid detergents (including Tide’s) are overpowering. The powder has always been fresh but light, it does the best cleaning job, and I like that it comes in cardboard packaging (rather than plastic). Bought a new box a week ago. The entire house smelled like it when I opened it. At first I thought it was just due to a new box. However, when I did the first loads I realized the scent had to have been changed. It’s overpowering and has an odd urine (ammonia??) note. Disappointed. I’m not sure what I will change to, but I can’t continue using Tide Powder.

I LOVED LOVED LOVED the smell of powdered tide. This new scent is AWFUL. Please please please switch it back!!! The cleaning power and versatility of this product is unmatched but I will be forced to switch if you don’t go back to to original scent.

I have been using tide for over 20 years and have been very happy with it. This new scent change is terrible. The detergent itself smells like cheap air freshener, but I have found that the clothes I have been washing in it have a foul odor when I remove them from my dresser to wear. I never had this problem with the old original Tide. My clean clothes smell sour and foul. Please bring back the old Tide.

The reformulation should have been called "New Tide WAY TOO STRONG Scent" and then people who wanted this feature could have it, and the rest of us could keep using the product we liked. I use it for cleaning (Go Clean Co. style) and am so disappointed to have lost my go-to product. Seriously, this new stuff burns your nose hairs off. You can't even keep it inside. Gross.

There scent is horrific ! I've never had a reaction to any detergent or fragrance in my life, but I do to this new tide fragrance! The scent is absolutely way too strong, how this passed testing I have no idea. It is disgusting. I shocked that a top company like this would change such a good product to such an awful one. Tide is losing customers fast unless they change it back

I have used the original tide power all my life. I am so disappointed in the new scent change. It’s over powering and gives me a headache. It’s also breaking my toddler and I out. Sadly we will be no longer using this product for our family.

I have used for Tide for years. Disappointing that such an overpowering, new scent has been incorporated. If we don't get accustomed to it when this box runs out, we will have to look for alternatives.

I have been using Tide powder original for years. But the newest box I bought last month is so strong. After opening it, our whole house smelled and I had to put it in the garage for a week. Now using it I have tried using less (below line 1) and the smell is still too powerful. I now have to put the clothes through an extra rinse cycle and it is still leaves our clothes smelling like detergent. I am so disappointed! And I have a Costco sized box to get through.

I’ve been using this product for five years, since having my first baby. It’s all I’ve used on kid laundry, and it has been a saviour for keeping cloth diapers clean. I’ve recommended the product to many moms. When I started seeing comments in the online mom groups with people complaining about a scent change I was worried, but thought maybe I just hadn’t noticed. Now I realize I was just still using the old kind. Opened my new box and did laundry this morning, when I returned mid cycle to do some folding, the scent in the room was so strong I got a headache and had to leave the room. I’m so disappointed. I know I could try switching to the free and gentle version, but third parties rank the cleaning power lower than others. So sad that I will probably have to switch. Please consider switching the scent back. No one uses tide because they love the scent, they use tide because they know it works, but if we can’t stand the smell, it feels like you’ve ruined a fantastic product.

Why change the scent? It's terrible, it gives me a headache and I won't be able to buy this anymore.

The main reason I switched to using Tide was for the unique scent it had. The new scent is not the same. The old scent made me feel happy-now that is gone.

I've used Tide powder for about 50 years. It had a nice light clean scent to it. Now they have changed the scent, which is too perfumy and gives me a headache. I will now have to find a new laundry detergent to use. I don't understand why companies change something that has been working for years. Please, please, please switch back to the old light fresh, clean scent so I don't have to shop around for another detergent.

I will start by saying, my whole family has used Tide for over 30 years. Tide Original has been a comforting smell of home to me for as long as I can remember. When Tide changed the scent of the liquid Tide Original a couple of years ago, I called customer service to complain. It was noxious, and way too potent, smelling up the entire house after a wash, even "when used as directed." The company thanked me for my feedback, and assured me I could still enjoy the old scent in Tide "mountain spring." I can't find this anywhere at the stores in my town. Also, this means the "Tide Original" smell is far from Original. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the Tide Original powder was pretty close to the actual Original smell. We have happily used it since. I have always loved the effectiveness of Tide. Until the last box we purchased about a month ago. The first wash I took out of the machine hit me in the face with the scent. It was like an air freshener in a public toilet, reminiscent of a urinal puck, complete with a hint of ammonia. I thought maybe something gross had gone through the wash in a kid's pocket, and caused a weird reaction. I washed the load again. It was worse. We've tried to get through the box by cutting the "Tide Original" with powder Tide Free and Clear. The results fluctuate between an awful, sickly, overly-sweet candy scent, and the aforementioned puck. The laundry is so strong otherwise, we can't stand it. This will unfortunately be my last box of Tide. I am fed up with changes to an "Original" formula I trusted, and now I have to wade through the market of detergents to find something that doesn't give us headaches. Tide, please listen to customer feedback, and leave "Original" scent as original! If you want to change the formula to give the scent a boost, then market it seperately as "scent boosted"!

I am beyond disappointed. I have used Tide Powder for decades and always loved that the scent was fresh but not overwhelming as we tend to be sensitive to added fragrance. Well, I was horrified when I opened and used a new box of Tide that I had been buying all along. It is so strong and the scent lingers on the clothes that it is making us sick! I bought a new box thinking, hoping, it was fluke. Nope, same. Ugh- we won't be able to use Today anymore due to this significant change. I am so upset.

I wanted to switch back to tide powder as I have fond memories of the Original Scent my grandmother used to use. After purchasing and realizing the smell had changed, I did some digging around to find Tide changed their scent a couple years back. This new smell is awful. I’m switching back to Purex.

The smell is completely different! What happened?? I know hundreds of people on FB who say the same. Why change the product?

I am definitely not happy about the new scent to the powder form of tide. It’s way to strong. I used tide actilift for so long. Why did you have to change the smell. So disappointed. Please bring actilift back!!!! Can you let me know if there has been any changes in the liquid form of tide original as well.

Tide has been my tried and true for some time now. It has been the only detergent to actually keep my clothes clean and fresh, without terrible fragrance that negatively impacted my skin. I also use it to clean my home, my car, my shoes...literally everything. The most recent scent change to the powdered tide was a terrible decision - it smells like a wannabe Gain laundry detergent - just too over powering and off putting. I appreciate that it cleans well, however, I just cannot smell this all of the time, as it gives me a terrible headache. I could understand adding a new scent to the collection, but not changing a well-loved product that had no issues to begin with. Very disappointing. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I was so sad when I opened a new box of the original tide and the scent has changed. I really don't like the new scent - it is far too overpowering as I am sensitive to smells. The old scent was just so good and now I will have to change to a different detergent,

You have changed the formula in September of 2021, again, without letting the consumer know. The smell is SO OBNOXIOUS it makes the whole house stink. When you changed the formula years back it was bad enough but this is just ridiculous. WHAT is wrong with your "original" formula?

The original smell has changed! While I don’t mind it, I miss the old one! Something has changed!!

My family has used original scent, dry powder Tide detergent for as long as I can remember. It always smelled clean and fresh. I opened the last box to find it now smells extremely strong and more like Gain laundry detergent. I can’t stand it, and even lessening the amount used is not really doing much to weaken the overpowering smell. I don’t know why the company had to mess with a good thing. Disappointed after all these years and not sure what to try now. Please change it back. I can see others have noticed a change, too.

I use an older Maytag front loading washing machine. Similar to other front loaders that I've used, the washing machine developed that terrible musty smell despite regular cleaning of the door seal and leaving the door open when not in use to allow the interior to dry. Similarly, over time using liquid laundry detergent (not Tide) my towels developed a musty smell to the point that I was considering buying all new towels. After using Tide Original Powder for a few washes, I no longer experience the odor from the washing machine nor the towels. Thanks, Tide!

Been using tide original powder for probably 20 years. We have 4 kids and do laundry daily. Can't stand the new scent change have no choice but to switch to something else. Free and gentle does not clean the clothes as good. Lost a long time customer.

I just opened a new box of Tide original powder and the scent has changed and is terrible! I hope that enough people complain and you go back to the original scent that we’ve all known and lived for years. The only thing different on the box is that it’s “clean dissolve” instead of “actilift crystals”. Please fix the smell!!!!

Died all the way always use it always well, even for mopping my floor it’s the best with some hot water

If you’re a fan of #GoCleanCo then you know how magical powdered Tide is. It works so much better than liquid laundry detergent or the pods. The liquid laundry detergent is diluted with so much unnecessary water that it doesn’t have the same type of strength as powdered tide. It may seem old school but make the switch! Trust me! #BleachPrayLove

I used this for everything from clothes to toilets to floors. Good clean scent. Love this classic.

I use the stuff all the time! I use it to clean my house and in laundry! It’s like magic in a box! I feel like there is not a stain this can’t get out! It’s always amazing to clean bathrooms, floors, shoes, I mean it you can use this for anything! I highly recommend using this!!

Powder tide is just as good as the liquid. I initially made the switch to be more environmentally friendly since there is no plastic. But I found that the powder was on average cheaper and stronger than the liquid. Works best in warm or hot and longer cycles, but I have done 30 minute delicate cycles with it and there was no residues on my clothes. I like to mix it with oxiclean for a really powerful presoak.

Nice smell, keep my clothes clean and giving and nice final smell! I was using Ariel until I found this Tide brand

There is no better clean than Tide clean. The smell has some what changed over to years in my opinion but the cleaning power is still unmatched.

This is one of the best detergents ever and it’s probably the only one I use consistently. I also use this to clean the rest of my house thanks to Instagram and it’s definitely noticeable. This thing is a powerhouse when it comes to cleaning and laundry!

I use this for laundry but I actually use it more often for cleaning! Follow @gocleanco on Instagram for all of her amazing tips! A little sprinkle of this in some hot water and it works wonders on all your household cleaning!!

Love this brand i always repurchase and go back it makes my clothes feel so clean and i can tell the difference i alternate between this one and the powder version its affordable for the amount you get i would recommend.

I use Tide with my spin mop when I clean the floors! They always look so good! One product with more than one use;). This is a cleaning hack game changer!

I use tide powder for everything except my kids laundry! Need to mop the floor? Tide powder! Need to clean the tub? Tide! Mix it with water and a little bleach and BOOM better than any other cleaning products. My laundry gets clean and the scent isn't too strong.

We used Tide around the firehouse for all kinds of things when I was a firefighter. They still do. I remember when we sanded down and then painted our 1971 Mack Ladder Truck (Ladder 26). The first thing we did, before we started sanding, was wash it with 140 degree water dosed with Tide Powdered Laundry Detergent. We used dish gloves to protect our hands from the hot water. We did our laundry in it too.
