What type of laundry detergent do you use? I've used Tide for years but now I may try something new.

Tide -- for years. DH says everything else makes his clothes smell funny -- whatever.

Yeah, I was reading about it ruining the clothes -- I think that must have been some kind of a fluke. I've been using nothing else for 25 years without incident.

I agree that this is some fluke. I have also been using Tide for at least 20 years. I swear, it is the only detergent to get my husbands REALLY dirty clothes clean. It's just all really odd.

I thought it was a fluke too but I have noticed those "greasy type spots" many times and thought it was from softner and I've also noticed those bleach like dots. Certain clothes I wouldn't be surprised to find those dots such as clothes I wear for cleaning the house . However, I am suprised to see them on my "good" clothes and my husband's work clothes.

We only use Tide. What thread about ruining clothes.

Right now I am using Tide HE. I used to use only Cheer, but my daughter did her science experiment (4th grade) on the cleaning power of detergents. We chose 5 detergents and discovered that Tide and Wisk remove ketchup stains best! So, I switched! I use Wisk sometimes, but prefer Tide. I think it makes our clothes smell better.

I like the Tide with Febreeze!

My mom uses that 100 gallon or so ( ) kirkland brand detergent and I swear it's better than Tide.

Tide with frebreezze

No liquid softener- and bounce with frebreeeeze sheets...

Never noticed anything on our clothes...and the Tide is the only thing that will even touch some of the stuff on DBF's work pants

I use Tide Coldwater. I have never had a problem. I also use a tiny bit of the WalMart brand fabric softener. Works just as good as Downy.

I think the Brady Bunch uses those brands also!! Remember when they were doing the commercial and the kids had to go out and get dirty?

I like Tide with Downy April Fresh!!!!

Also, fyi the walmart brand of fabric softner is good!! It's real cheap too.

All Free and Clear

I have a laundry soap allergy and all was one of the first that I came across with no perfumes.

Glad they are making free and clear fabric softeners now .

Just plain old Tide! I've been using it for at least 10 years. I don't have a particular type of Tide that I use. I usually get the originally scent or fresh breeze, but will pick up whichever they have if it's on sale and they don't have those two. I only use the liquid though, I hate powder soap.

I used to use Island Fresh Gain but, now that I have new front loading washer and dryer I have to use HE detergents. I have discovered Method's Fresh Air Scent!! It is 3x concentrate. It smells soooo good. I love it. You can find it a Target. It is expensive but worth it.

 

[disney4us2002]

Tide with Bleach alternative. I'm on a septic system and therefore must use liquid soap but I believe the powder detergents clean better. I've never had a problem with Tide. Now, the new Tide stick is another issue. I don't recommend it on a white shirt regardless of the commercial to the contrary. My white blouse still has a discoloration where the Tide stick was used.

I remember! Wasn't the soap they did the commercial for called "Safe"?

I use Tide Free (liquid). Works OK for me.
