Q: Is this detergent h.e ok?

submitted by Alexaaa - 10 years ago

  • A: Sure is. Use it all the time.

    submitted byska - 10 years ago

  • A: Tide makes an h e version.

    submitted byKkvw - 10 years ago

  • A: This particular listing is not our HE version. We do make an HE Tide Free and Gentle Liquid Detergent. We do not suggest using regular detergents in an HE washing machine. If your washer is HE, be sure to use our HE detergent.

Q: Is this detergent clear as opposed to blue like the original? Thanks!

submitted by Klynn - 2 years ago

  • A: Yes. It is clear with a slight yellowish tint. There are no dyes so its just the color of the ingredients.

    submitted byMelissa L - 2 years ago

  • A: There's no dye added to our Free & Gentle detergents, however, it's a light yellow color.

Q: Why is HE on the front top of the bottle but is not high efficiency? This is misleading and led me to believe the product I was purchasing is HE. I think it's a marketing scam that needs attention.

submitted by Kathy - 3 years ago

  • A: This! Target, fix this listing! The main photo shows HE and most of the review photos show HE bottles. This is seriously misleading. Some identifier in your database must not be unique.

    submitted byHooHaHaver - 3 years ago

  • A: We hope it helps to know this detergent is HE.

Q: Target lists this item as HE but HE is not written anywhere on the bottle that I ordered with drive up. I can't tell if it is HE or not, and want to be sure before using it in my new HE washer.

While the bottle may not explicitly say HE, it is designed to be safe on colors and effective in both HE and non HE machines. So you can confidently use it in your new HE washer.

Q: I need the non he detergent, but the ingredients listed are exactly the same for both the he and non he. So...what is the difference?

submitted by Laundrypowderfan - 8 months ago

  • A: Hi there! That's an amazing question. Our High Efficiency (HE) laundry detergents are designed specifically for HE washers, which use less water than regular washers. For that reason, HE detergents are formulated to perform well in low-water conditions by creating fewer suds and dispersing dirt and dyes quickly. Our HE laundry detergents use Tide’s Smart Suds™ technology so that suds collapse instantly and rinse away quickly, helping you save time, water and energy by preventing HE washers from running additional rinse cycles. Tide HE detergents also have special dirt capturing ingredients to help suspend dirt and dyes in the water, which helps keep them from re-depositing on your clean laundry. So, these are the characteristics that differentiate our HE Tide Detergents from our Non-HE ones like this Tide Free & Gentle Non- HE Liquid Laundry Detergent. Please feel free to contact us at (800) 879-8433 for any further questions. Your satisfaction is highly important for us at Tide.

It works

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It washes well, my clothes are clean. They feel nice when they come out of the dryer. I honestly can't really tell a difference between this and regular Tide. It would be great for folks who have sensitive skin or can't have fragrance.

Could smell better

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is great for sensitive skin since it is fragrance and dye free. Although I do not find the scent pleasant on its own. I do recommend for sensitive skin but it could be improved scent wise.

Great for sensitive skin and noses

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This detergent works great for our family! My two younger sons and I have eczema-prone skin and I also have sensitivity to fragrance, and none of us have ever had reactions wearing clothes, sleeping on sheets, or using towels washed in Tide Free & Gentle. My workout clothes and my oldest son’s sport uniforms come out clean and fresh-smelling as well. If your family has sensitivity to dye or fragrance, I highly recommend this detergent and continue to purchase this for our home.

Gentle on sensitive skin and fragrance free, great for newborns!

This is my go to laundry detergent for my newborn’s clothing. It is gentle on her sensitive skin, and I love that it is fragrance free. I also use this on my own clothing as I have sensitive skin as well.

Cleans clothes well, no residue or fragrance

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Simple and easy to read packaging. Free of irritating residue, no added dyes, or perfume. It says unscented, but I smell something that reminds me of cleaning chemicals. There’s no sand after they’ve been washed, rinsed, and dry. We had no skin irritation and it cleaned our clothes very well. I prefer more natural cleaners, but this detergent did clean my toddlers clothes well.

Amazing with stains works like a magic

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Tide Free and Gentle is honestly one of the best choices if you want a powerful clean without harsh chemicals. It’s specially made for sensitive skin, so it’s completely free of dyes and perfumes, yet it still removes dirt and odors really effectively. Clothes come out feeling soft, fresh, and truly clean without any irritation. I also love how gentle it is on fabrics it keeps clothes looking newer for longer. Whether you’re washing everyday outfits or baby clothes, it gives you peace of mind with every load. A perfect balance of strength and care!

New Formula New Skin Reactions

Really want to know who at Tide thought it would be a good idea to add more chemicals to a laundry detergent that's supposed to be for sensitive skin. This "new and improved" formula is making my skin itch and feels like it's burning. I've been using Tide Free and Gentle for years and NEVER had any issues. Why improve something that didn't need to be improved? Now I'm going to have to find a new laundry detergent and hope I don't break out in a rash or hives. Thanks, Tide.
1 reply from Customer Care team - 20 days ago
We are sorry to hear about your experience with the new Tide Free and Gentle formula. The product was upgraded in April 2025 to rebalance ingredients for better stain removal while still being gentle on sensitive skin. It remains hypoallergenic, free of dyes and perfumes, and dermatologist tested to be safe for sensitive skin. Sometimes, changes in formula can affect individuals differently. If you would like, we suggest trying Tide Free and Gentle Liquid, which is also designed for sensitive skin. We would love to hear more about your experience and assist you further, so please call us at (800) 879-8433.

Bottle leaks everywhere!

I have always loved Tide detergent, but whoever designed this bottle with the spigot directly above the top of the bottle means it drips straight down, runs down the front of the bottle and leaks on whatever is underneath it, no matter how I try to avoid that. I use a public laundry and have to bring a paper towel with me to clean up the mess. Bring back proper spigots, please, and get rid of these useless bottles!

Our #1. No skin irritation and cleans well.

This is the only laundry detergent that does not cause my husband skin rash/irritation. I prefer the liquid as our load sizes vary. Pros: No dyes. No fragrances. Dissolves well in any water temperature and leaves no residue. Available in a variety of sizes, I like this size as it is easy to lift. No skin irritation. Cons: No matter how well wrapped if not transported upright it always leaks at the top.
