The last time these were on sale, someone posted that what makes the Simply Tide variation different is the lack of some enzymes that break down really tough stains. Otherwise does a good job for regular washes. I can attest - been using this on all laundry. My clothes are just stinky from being very active and it does a good job cleaning them.

To get an idea of your comparison, what do you typically use?

This is understandable, as it's supposed to be "cleaner" without the added chemicals. I have a stain remover spray for tough stains. Good to know that it works great for regular washing, and I just ordered this deal!

Hoping this won't make my neck area break out like my current detergent does. I am currently using some knock off brand and it has something in it that is VERY irritating on my skin. Wish me luck ! Scooped !

Yes, it's compatible with High Efficiency (HE) machines. Unfortunately,Tide left that off the front label for some bottles but it's specified in back. Pretty much all liquid detergents are HE compatible these days.

Hey, it's "someone" here. 🤪 Thanks for acknowledging my post. I'm glad that you had the same experience I did. I actually appended that old post with new info: Detergents with no enzyme can actually be better for natural fibers.

Here's the latest version of that post (sorry for the length):

Quote :
I've posted this in the past so please forgive me if you've already read it. I am, however, adding new information that may be helpful.

As I pointed out in the past, this budget version of Tide lacks enzymes. They are helpful for breaking down organic stains such as blood, chocolate and urine. So enzymes must be good, right? And one should avoid detergents without them, right? Not necessarily. Guess what else is organic: Natural fibers such as cotton, wool and silk. Like organic stains, these fibers are also made up of proteins and carbohydrates. Enzymes break apart proteins and carbs so some experts say that they can also degrade natural fibers. That's why detergents like Woolite do not have enzymes. It's something to consider when you buy your next bottle of laundry detergent. And it's why you shouldn't just dismiss Tide Simply as an inferior detergent.

---------

Here's my original post:

Simply is Tide's budget line. It lacks enzymes to break down tough organic stains, e.g. Amylase for carbohydrates, Protease (e.g. Subtilisin) for proteins. Their regular fragrance-free line, Free and Gentle, has "Subtilisin, Amylase Enzyme, Mannanase Enzyme." This only has detergents and solvents, but no enzymes. I always look at the ingredients before buying a new detergent. On Amazon, the list is usually in the description or you can just enlarge the images to read the label.

It's not "watered down" as some claim. This is evidenced by the fact that the measuring cap is identical to the one on the more expensive Free and Gentle bottle. While Simply lacks enzymes, it does have detergents and solvents to handle those stains, albeit less effectively. That's fine for most people since most people don't have to deal with blood, grass, wine and chocolate stains on a regular basis. It works fine for me. It has even gotten rid of ink (with pre-treatment) since most inks are not organic. And consider this: hand soaps and cleaning sprays like Windex don't have enzymes either yet they work just fine.

I use budget detergent (with and without enzymes) for my regular wash but use the premium stuff (and/or pretreaters) when I have especially dirty and smelly clothes. In summary, this is fine for most people if you want to save a few bucks. But if you have a lot of organic stains all the time, use something with enzymes. For example, if you have kids who are constantly spilling their food.

If the tough stain isn't organic, e.g. ink, you can just use the detergent as a pre-soak. The solvents should help remove the stain. But like you, I also use the pretreater spray or stick if the stain is organic since they usually have enzymes.
