Powder or Liquid Tide HE?
Comments (7)I switched from liquid to powder Tide when I bought a new W/D set, to take advantage of the timer feature (manual says not to use liquid det. when using the timer b/c it can drip down on the clothes prematurely). Also b/c I use powdered Oxyclean frequently and the manual also says not to mix powdered stuff and liquid stuff in the detergent dispenser. Anyhow, I've also found that 1/4cup (i.e. a measuring cup, not the scoop that comes in the Tide box) is perfect for a full load in my Kenmore He2t. We have relatively soft water. If I'm doing a partial load I adjust downward accordingly. It took me a few weeks to get the amounts figured out but now I never have problems with soap residue or suds left at the end. It just takes some getting used to :)!...See MoreIs Tide liquid a lot stronger than Tide Free and Gentle?
Comments (5)I used it before but it has been a few years ago. It wasnt cleaning well for me so I called Tide. The lady told me to just use more even when I was using the amount they said to (HE). Not sure if the "original" was stronger but probably was. I just went back to using All Free. I like powder best and the All free powder has enzymes and is HE. I like Tide powder original but they can't leave the scent alone. You might try the Wisk Free. At one time in test it was the #1 detergent. It would be worth a try....See MoreBeloved Tide Victory Boost pods, are now Tide Odor Rescue pods
Comments (18)I think the original Tide/bleach boost pods were discontinued in 2012.perhaps if Tideman sees this he can straighten it out. But remember P$G has had a lot of *originals* lol Take Tide for example, many folks here refer to lets call it **Larsi's Tide* LOL as being the original scent Tide, but there was another original Tide scent, up until the early, (I think 1972) when P$G got it in their heads to reformat Tide and changed its original scent to Larsi's original Scent Tide. I'm sure there are a few of us on this board that can remember the awesome and wonderful scent of the #1 original scent of Tide. This probably has to do with ones age, in my age group the original scented Tide was taken from me in the 70's...some of you younger ones will remember Larsi's Tide as being the original. So where was I going with these thoughts...I haven't the foggiest..LOL...See MoreTide whites+brights rescue booster pods vs tide odor rescue pods
Comments (5)@mamapinky0, I have Two Verisons. One is a incredibly old (powder) bottle from the U.K., while another was made in Hungary and somehow didn't make it overseas :p I found it at a Oillies outside of D.C. In the 'Burbs. :) Really like the stuff. Like you said, no extra suds, contains enzymes and a ton of oxygen bleach. Plus... It has a really good whitening system. :) Wonderful Stuff!!!! :)...See MoreDebbi Branka
