Effectiveness

Pros:

  • "Perfect for removing a drop of wine or food."
  • "Have yet to find a stain that these don't completely remove (in most cases) or make better."
  • "This amazing little stain stick can save the day! It is easy to use and provides amazing results."
  • "I’ve used this on fresh and old stains and it takes them all out … even dried on blood stains."
  • "It's completely removed mustard, grape juice, coffee and other various stains from my cotton shirts and pants."
  • "These Tide to go sticks truly work! My husband is infamous for spilling food on his work shirts & then it’s a challenge to remove the stain by the time he gets home. Not anymore!"

Cons:

  • "Do not use this product on an item of clothing that you like...it will also remove the color."
  • "I have ruined 2 white 100% cotton shirts with the tide To Go Pen. Both were left with large yellow stains."
  • "This on the goes stick does not remove the stain. It just makes your pants wet and when it dries there’s a big white circle around the stain."
  • "I used Tide to Go on grey shorts to remove a stain - the pen completely took out the grey color."
  • "It bleached a tan coat of mine!!!! The product claims it doesn’t have bleach and that it’s safe to use. Lies!!!!!"
  • "Unfortunately, it doesn't work very well on salad dressing stains or on any oil-based stains."
  • "I applied the tide to go stick to a chocolate stain on my 100% cotton t-shirt. I looked down 45 minutes later and there was a huge hole where I applied the product."

Convenience

Pros:

  • "This Tide To Go stain eraser is so good that the one I keep in my office is repeatedly borrowed by people who spill food or coffee on their shirts or slacks."
  • "Press down, wet the stain, and rub gently."
  • "I always keep a Tide Pen handy to take care of stains, at home, and in my purse when I am out of the home."
  • "As expected. Easy to carry and even no issues with airport security when it's in my purse."
  • "The compact size makes them perfect for travel, and I love that I don't have to worry about carrying around a bulky stain remover."
  • "I keep the Tide to Go applicators in my purse, office desk and also in my car."
  • "This item/product is not only completely functional, it’s the perfect size for even the smallest of handbags or in a pocket."

Cons:

  • "I would only recommend using this in your own house."
  • "Made a huge blotch on my jacket making it look 100x worse … and it didn’t even get the chocolate stain out waste of money."
  • "If you leave this product in your house or luggage for more than a few months, it can go horribly rancid and smell like vomit."
  • "I'm not sure if it went bad or what but according to the rest of the web, they all share s similar problem. The Tide to Go sticks all smell of baby vomit and the smell will definitely linger on your clothes until you wash it."
  • "Who the hell carries around a washcloth and a bottle of water for laundry on the go?"
  • "Another minor concern is the warning about blotting the fluid if fabric will come into contact with direct sunlight."
  • "I haven't used this on any 'Dry-Clean Only' items, but I don't think it is meant to be used on those types of fabrics."

Value

Pros:

  • "Found them on Amazon as a package deal and saved a lot of money."
  • "The price for 3 to a package is unbeatable! I do recommend!"
  • "I will never buy these in a store again because this is such a great deal!"
  • "I only paid a couple dollars for this and I feel like the regular price is way inflated. I only get them when they go on sale for a couple dollars."
  • "THIS PRODUCT FUNCTIONS VERY WELL AND AT A REASONABLE COST."
  • "Definitely recommend having these handy!!! Save your clothes. Definitely worth the $$ to save loved items of clothes."
  • "Best thing ever i stock up on those because it's always sold out in my country."

Cons:

  • "Compared to other products that do the same thing Tide is getting EXTREMELY greedy on their pricing here."
  • "Easy to use and work great but man do they run out fast."
  • "Fairly pricey I have to admit. . . . but balance that against having to write off expensive clothing and suddenly they're worth every penny!"
  • "I suppose they're a little pricey per ounce, but nothing compared to the cost of the clothes they have saved."
  • "The only problem is that the stick gets used up very quickly."
  • "They are a huge waste of money and succeed only in lightening the stain a little and creating a larger, off-colored surrounding stain."
  • "Not really happy with the results.I accidentally got some pasta sauce on a white hat of mine and used it on it. Not too happy with the results; can leave some pretty bad marks."
