Q: Your Tide Free and Clear HE says it is now 84 fl. oz. and it does 64 loads. I used to purchase 92 fl. oz. and it also said 64 poads. Is the product now somehow stronger?
submitted by SJ - 1 year ago
A: While the volume of the Tide Free and Clear HE detergent has been reduced from 92 fl. oz. to 84 fl. oz., the formula has been updated to maintain the same cleaning power per load. This means the detergent is more concentrated, so you’ll need less liquid per load to achieve the same level of cleaning as before. Essentially, the product is stronger and more efficient, allowing you to still get 64 loads from the smaller volume
submitted byRobert - 8 months agoA: Tide's answer about the number of loads for the 84 oz. container is completely misleading. See details. Line 5 of measuring cup for full load = 4 oz. That's 21 loads/ 84 oz. container.
submitted bysam34 - 1 year agoA: With all of our liquid detergents, there was a change to the formula to make it more concentrated. This means that while there are fewer liquid oz in the package, you will still get the same number of cleaning loads.
submitted byTide - 1 year agoBrand expert
Q: Is the 156 fluid ounces HE also? it is not on the top of the container did they just forget to put it there. I would like to know if it is also High Efficiency the 156 fluid ounce?
submitted by RiRi001 - 5 years ago
A: The Tide Free and Gentle HE will have an HE logo or symbol on the front of the package. This particular listing is for the HE Free and Gentle. If you have any questions please call us at (800) 879-8433.
submitted byTide - 5 years agoBrand expertA: I bought the 154 oz. It came with the HE logo on the bottle.
submitted byKelen - 5 years agoA: I called my local store and asked them to verify whether the 154 oz version (DPCI: 003-08-0159) is in fact High Efficiency (HE). They verified that it is HE. The person I spoke with said the HE logo is on the bottle — admittedly, I haven't yet purchased so I'm verifying this second hand.
submitted byNick - 5 years ago
Q: Can I use high efficiency detergent in a regular washing machine?
submitted by hlhaze - 8 years ago
A: I don't see why not. It is gentle on your clothes, let alone a machine.
submitted bychinpoko - 8 years agoA: Yes. You can use HE detergent in a regular washing machine. You might notice fewer suds, but your clothes will still come out fresh and clean!
submitted byTide - 6 years agoBrand expert
Q: Is this for sweaters or delicate clothes that say gentle wash?
submitted by MS - 5 months ago
A: Our detergents are safe for fabrics when used as directed. Be sure to follow the care label on the detergent.

submitted byP&G - 6 months agoBrand expert
Q: What is the concentration for this detergent? We have an HE washer that auto-dispenses, so would need to know whether this is 2x, 3x, 4x, 5x or 6x. Thank you.

I was hopeful this would work at keeping my clothes impecably clean (as my alternative is about twice the price) but after long term use on my white towels and linens, Tide free & gentle turned my clothes a hue of yellow, whereas my original brand keeps them white. Also, I doif not find Tide kept my clothes smelling clean.

StrawberryBeefcake - 18 days ago, Verified purchaser
Makes your clothes sticky out of the wash. I use less than the recommended amount of detergent, but it will still leave a sticky residue on all of your laundry and is a nightmare on bath towels. Took me months to figure out the it was the Tide free and clear until I came across a Reddit tbh thread of other people dealing with the same issue from this detergent.

Not as good as the previous formulation or fragrance free Hygienic Clean
3 out of 5 stars
Thumbs down graphic, would not recommend
Abby - 19 days ago
I want to give this 3 stars because at least there is still a fragrance free option. But Tide changed this Free and Gentle detergent’s ingredients a while back when they changed the bottle’s look, causing me and my family to have allergic reactions when we used the new formulation. I switched us to the fragrance free Hygienic Clean detergent from Tide, and it seemed to be the same as the regular Free and Gentle detergent used to be, but worked even better. They recently discontinued the fragrance free Hygienic Clean (leaving only the scented one), so now my family and I will be trying to find a different detergent that cleans as well, but without the hives and all. If trying this specific detergent, be aware of possible allergic reactions from the ingredients, even though it’s fragrance free.
1 reply from Tide team - 16 days ago
We're sorry to hear this, Abby. Due to the rigorous health and safety tests our products have undergone, this certainly isn't the result we expect. The well-being of our Tide family is extremely important to us, so we hope everyone is feeling better now. If you haven't already done so, we recommend that you discontinue using this detergent. So our Safety Team can learn more and make sure everyone is ok, we ask that you please give us a call at (800) 879-8433.

As a person with sensitive skin, I have always been able to rely on Tide Free and Gentle to keep my skin comfortable and safe. I bought a new bottle of tide from my local store in March and the new formula is a nightmare. My face has swollen up, with hives on my face, neck, shoulders, back and legs. Please please please. If you say you’re free and gentle, BE free and gentle. The saddest part is I would have been a life long customer but now that it’s no longer safe for me to use, I have to find alternatives.

We're terribly sorry to hear this, Kate. All of our detergents have gone through strict quality checks to ensure that they reach you in perfect condition, and are safe to use when used as directed, every time.

This product is good for people who have easily irritable skin from harsher detergents. We made the switch to this after some minor skin issues with previous detergents and have since not had any new problems arise. The slight price increase is worth having a safer option for washing clothes!

I was looking for a baby friendly detergent for my newborn and after reading reviews, I found Tide Free & Gentle. It is free of dyes and perfumes, making it a great option for babies with sensitive skin. The only downside is that it's not very effective on tough stains. Overall, it's a good choice.
