We go through LOTS of laundry detergent, so just the convenience of having a case of detergent delivered to my door FOR FREE is worth it. Tide HE won't fade your colors like other HE detergents I've tried (Sears) and it gets out all of my stains - my stain sticks now sit unused and I don't have to sort through every item searching for stains (a time saver with 4 kids!) YES, you will get free shipping, and it reminds you to choose free shipping on the checkout page, so if you're new to Amazon, be sure to read the directions!! I can find cheaper sale prices in the grocery or WalMart, but the free delivery is worth the extra price.

Just ordered, so I can't comment on Amazon's shipping of it, but I have used it with my Miele front loading washer very successfully.

One major caveat, though: I use *WAY* less detergent than the scoop suggests - half of the lowest mark on the scoop is plenty. More than that and suds remain. Perhaps if you have pets or kids who play in the mud a lot you need the higher amounts, but my "normal" wash sure doesn't warrant it and in fact seems to work better with the lower amounts. (This also means you get a lot of loads out of a single box.) Again, this is for a Miele undercounter frontloader - YMMV on other brands.

It's laundry detergent, it cleans the clothes. For the reviewer who has the undissolved detergent left in the dispenser: make sure that your dispenser is set up for powder detergent instead of liquid. Some machines have a removeable plastic piece to adjust for powder or liquid.

Excellent product...gets clothes clean.
No problems with shipping...ordered on Wednesday, received on Monday. (Supersaver shipping)

I love this detergent because it has a very mild scent. The other Tides have an noxious perfume odor that they add to them. The Tide HE is really nice and cleans even stubborn spots really well. I use less than they recommend....it works better than most other detergents I have used.

I love that stuff! And now you haven't had it - but I need more - please make it available again. Thanks.

If you are at all sensitive to fragrances, this product is not for you.

I washed only one load of laundry in my brand new HE washer using Tide "Original Scent". Even though I used half of the recommended quantity of powder, the fragrance was so strong when I took the clothes out of the washer that I ended up washing the entire load two more times, without detergent, to reduce the smell. After the third washing, there was still enough scent left on the laundry that I could tell which towels had been in HE washer, and which ones were done in my old washer the day before using unscented liquid detergent.

After doing some research on-line, I found Sear's fragrance-free HE powder. I have done several loads of laundry using it, and am happy with the results. It does a decent job cleaning the clothes, and they don't come out of the washer smelling like perfume.

I purchased a HE washing machine and was happy to discover that Tide offered a product made especially for this machine. I've always used Tide and am just as satisfied with the HE products as I was with the others.

Works well in warm water but doesn't dissolve in cold water leaving a soap residue on clothes.

I'm giving this only four stars because of value. The detergent itself is great, but I can get it at Target stores in my area for $6.99 per same-size box. At that price, four boxes are about $29, including sales tax, so the Amazon price isn't really that great. If you can't find it locally for a reasonable price, though, then get it here.
