Water alone helps to soften up the pods. However, with the motion of the HE washing machine’s impeller involved, it will definitely help dissolve the pods efficiently. That’s why it’s recommended to add in (1 or 2) pods first, then add the laundry. Water temperature is up to everyone’s preference however, do keep in mind that hot water may damage clothes. Cold water washes without any damages (plus it’s said to help reduce energy bill costs), if heat is preferred then warm water can be safer than hot water. Although, if anyone’s concerned about bacteria being a threat, then Lysol’s Laundry Sanitizer can help to disinfect your laundry. It goes into the rinse cycle compartment (like the fabric softeners do), though it wouldn’t be recommended to add it with the fabric softeners.
Fabric softener should be banned. Damages washers and really don’t help with towel absorbency. Full of synthetic fragrances and chemicals which are HORMONE disrupters and many other health issues. Stick with vinagar
I don't know when i use warm, i use exclusively ONLY hot or cold. Washing your T-shirts in cold water helps keep the color and preserves the material better, &washing jeans in cold water helps them not get soft and worn out easier,..which means looking less shabby and buying less clothes. And hot water for underwear, socks, and the white load. I guess you're the person I'm always about, "who uses warm?" 😂 Also, as per my washer with a timer, the warm cycle is longer than the hot or cold, so you end up waiting longer for the load to finish.
Not real world conditions imho. Pods get toss around in the washer at the start of a cycle.. all this shows is that a pod in cold static water doesn't activate as fast as hot water will activate a pod in hot static water...
True, but you don’t get the hot water in the machine until it reaches the wash cycle. The pretreat cycle starts with cold water, and the rinse cycle also uses cold water.
Wouldnt matter. Pods arent recommended because the plastic doesnt dissolve like it should and gets stuck on clothes and ruins washers. Pods are horrible and tide is even worse. It eats thru clothes. Some states have banned tide because of the chemical makeup so tide is reformulating their detergent.
Cold water doesn’t dissolve body oils and body funk (Warm water does). No surprise that the pod is taking a very long time to dissolve in the cold water.
I've still to this day never used a laundry pod and never will, there's nothing more simple and effective as just opening a laundry bottle cap, pour a little in, and your done!, not this plastic pod shit that you gotta start checking to make sure it's cold or hot water soluble, and worry about punctured pods that could leak out before you even start the laundry, no way!
what are you talking about. they are cold water soluble. the machine spinning aids in their breakdown and they are so insanely simpler then using liquid detergent… i could never go back.
@@alfatir14 the coating of the pods themselves are made out of pva - a microplastic. apparently pva is biodegradable under very specific conditions, but nothing in our households can reach those conditions and a lot of the pva makes it into the system and contaminates our water
Well clearly you aren't a New Yorker where lugging a big ass container of laundry detergent brings great joy. Pods of dissolvable laundry sheets please and thank you.
I prefer powder in my top loader and tidepods in my mouth. The saliva breaks them down better than cold water. Really takes the edge off when you feel messy inside.
@@denisalexandre2906 I JUST DRANK THAT STUFF it has no taste, but feels like soap and has an after taste of soap and no, I was not doing the tide pod change and I'm not a child 💀
The whole thread of comments blows my fkin mind 😑 of how STUPID people can be. A pod is a pod. Is a pod. They both break easily once the washing machine is in motion. Simple. Just put them in before clothes and run water. Wow. Mind blowing.
The washing machine also agitates the pod.

Vinegar is also good to disinfect and it can help soften your laundry

Ok bot
😅 Our Top-loading washing machine spins as it should - but, it has no impeller
@@maybpandacat5989 the fins in the HE washing machines are the impeller. The agitator is the one in the middle, for the top loading washing machines.
Machines also have “normal/warm” water temperatures, ain’t no one just out here going hot or cold 😂
Uh yes they do. Plenty of people use just hot or just cold water. 😂 wtf?

Zoomers: That looks tasty
Move the glass or tide pod around to get it to dissolve like how it would in the wash

I always use warm or hot and still often have leftover pod material in the drain area or filter. Went back to liquid
The cold one: ahh~ this is fine
The hot one: AHHHH HELP IM MELTING- *explodes*
That was pretty satisfying
My life will never be the same
same
😂😂😂 really? .... my god.
If those tide pods is not labeled as “cold wash” then yeah of course it won’t dissolve in cold water.
They all are. The difference is in a washing machine they’re being agitated/tumbled around so it speeds up their dissolving process
But, they are

Also less microplastics
@joshuamoon9312 Less? The pods don't have containers?

Nice and tasty
Dude…
They taste so good
Do Not Drink This!
@@eddycraig4212 you will die if you do this
😂😂😂
depending on how cold is the room temperature, that hot water seems a bit too hot for washing clothes
It really doesn't matter either way 😂 An excellent product nevertheless
That makes sense.
it will dissolve either way. it's basic chemistry lol. higher temperatures will make dissolving faster.
Yep! The video was just supposed to be satisfying lol
@@CiaraAndMarshall I figured as much, I was referring to the people in the comments who don't seem to understand that
The forbidden snack

Is it a chemical change
I prefer powder in my top loader and tidepods in my mouth. The saliva breaks them down better than cold water. Really takes the edge off when you feel messy inside.
Anyone think plop when they droped ?
Every washing machine take about 20 to40 degree hot water to wash the clothes
Cold tide pod 😎 I'm just chilling hot tide pod 😵 help meeeee
Hot Tide pod showing Cold Tide pod how it's done. 🫠😏
You can't be serious....
TRY STIRRING THE PODS
The washer has running water. Whenever I throw a pod in cold water, I see it dissolving instantly
How to make sulfur water
Warm water is what I use
I never use less than 40 degrees for clothes and 60/90 fortowels.
Bro just watched his brother die
Duh because it is plastic 😳
It stained my clothes 😢
Who sent you?
PODS 😃
Got one of them in. Eye
month back💀💀💀
i got one in my eye.
My tide pods have stuck onto my clothes :/ and left them ruined
I GENUINELY JUST DRANK THAT STUFF it taste like nothing but feels like soap and has soap after taste
🤔
It’s chemical. Please take care of yourself and don’t risk your life.
@@tsboi7712 it didn't do anything yet :/
Just eat candy

Don't drink and drive ! 🤣
