Review on Tide Pods 16 Count: ๐ŸŒŠ Original Scent Liquid Detergent for Effective Cleaning by Paul Stephenson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Don't believe the negative press

These capsules are so good that stores can't keep them on their shelves because they are being stolen in large quantities across the country. Tidepods are considered a form of currency in certain subcultures around the world. They've also received bad press due to reports of children consuming packets that smell pretty good and might appeal to toddlers. So if you have children, please remember to keep them out of your reach. Their best feature is that they are less messy and more portable than bottled detergents. I like that much less goes back into the waste stream, saving resources that would have gone into making the bottle. The packaging itself is recyclable. They are very easy to travel and inexpensive. Because the detergent is very concentrated, I recommend filling the washing machine's tank with a few gallons of water, tossing the packaging, and letting it disperse before adding clothes. I've never ruined anything because of them, but it would be wise not to throw any of these pods over black or dark cotton clothing. Also, some complain that the dark liquid stains white shirts. The scent is subtle but fresh, which is nice if you're cycling or doing physical work in the summer.

Pros
  • Glad
Cons
