Absolutely love the smell of these pods. I’ve changed to wash at 30 which has been great but noticed that my makeup cloths have still got black on from eye makeup. Usually when I was on 40, these always come out. I will try on 30 again on a longer wash to see how they work.

suebanda57 • 1 year ago

Was sceptical about these washing at 30 degrees but was pleasantly surprised at what a great wash I got after using my first pod. Even the fresh smell as soon as you open the box has me sold on them. I would normally wash at 60 degrees but no longer will I be doing so after being converted.

SplattyJ • 1 year ago

I just washed my work coat - covered in dry shampoo and make up. Washed at 30 degrees on a quick wash. Stains removed and smells fresh!!

wendytylor • 1 year ago

I afore the smell of these pods , did 5 lots of washing and I must say my bedding , curtains, towels , clothes are smell so Amazing !! I have shared my experiences both online and off line with all my family and friends and work colleagues who have now got the vouchers for them to test and try these for themselves. Thank you for letting me be part of the team

Samspam • 1 year ago

mzin • 1 year ago

Love the smell. I washed my son's school clothes at 30 and it worked! the stains are gone. Good product and energy saving!

Kempsey • 1 year ago

Was Unsure washing at 30 would get out the stains of my sons football kit but it has come out absolutely gleaming 👍🏻

Sandringham • 1 year ago

Soo happy with the ariel cooler wash . Brilliant clean laundry and smells amazing

XkarlyX • 1 year ago

There are brilliant a great way to save on energy bills by washing in colder temperatures, and still getting that fresh clean scent on your laundry along with clean clothes, am really happy with these and I am definitely going to be sticking to them.

EmilyStrutt • 1 year ago

Will be putting a 30 degree wash to the ultimate test today… secondary school PE kits! Wish me luck!

Superstar84 • 1 year ago

They clean amazingly well at 30c , which surprised me because I didn't think they would look and feel as clean as they do while using these .My clothes smell fresh and look good so all in all I give a HUGE 10/10 for this product .

annie1610 • 1 year ago

I've just done a wash on 20° my Oodie was in the load and I'm amazed that all the marks and stains (cats love lying on it whether I've got it on or not) have gone. The smell of the clean washing is so fresh, I just love it. Now to get it all out on the line to dry. Dark load next.

MrsP2212 • 1 year ago

Was sceptical as to washing at 30 deg ,. Was fine on daily wash , didn’t do much for heavy stained building trade work clothes 🥴. The smell though is very nice . Guess I have to continue using for everyday items and use 40 for work clothes .

cran275 • 1 year ago

Absolutely amazing ariel washing pods doing the cold water wash challenge with my friends has been exciting and the results have shown in the wash and in the pocket and my friends have been very impressed

anisbet2171 • 1 year ago

Best pods on the market. Never let me down. Clothes are clean and fresh and washed at 30 or 40 degrees. Perfect.

Fris • 1 year ago

These do what they say on the packet.It is really cleaning in colder temperatures. Definitely I am going to be buy them regularly.

JillT23 • 1 year ago

These little pods leave the washing smelling amazing and clean too.

I washed at 20 degrees last week (didn't even know my machine went that low) with brilliant results. Towels were great and underwear fresh and spotless.

Aeriel pods have in a week saved me more money than getting everyone to turn the lights off they don't actually need!!

Nayab26 • 1 year ago

Absolutely amazing pods with pleasant smell. Amazing cleaning. My friends and neighbours are also loving the coupons.

SuperStevie211 • 1 year ago

A friend used her voucher yesterday and put on a load of baby clothes, she was impressed! Thumbs up from Cathy!

Jewils • 1 year ago

Have used this on some muddy clothes at 30- i did have to wash them twice but I think I would have had to anyway

Tesspriestley • 1 year ago

Loving these pics! They make my washing smell nice and fresh. It's great knowing I'm saving energy aswell by washing cooler whilst still getting great results.

Leannewhite • 1 year ago

I didn't hold much hope for washing on a cold wash if I'm honest but I'm truly happy to be so wrong. After seeing the results of washing at 30° I'm definitely not going back now. We live in a busy household with lots of muddy paw prints and food spillages and I've always been under the impression I'd have to wash on a hot temperature in order for things to be clean so when I washed our cream throws for our sofas I wasn't expecting much of a result - I couldn't of been more wrong they came out looking great, no evidence of previous marks and stains. They also came out much brighter than previous washes on a high temperature and smell lush... I'm actually really annoyed with myself for not trying Aeriel pods sooner but I won't go back to the brand I used to use after seeing the results from aerial first hand. I actually can't wait to wash our white load now aswel - who'd of thought I'd look forward to doing laundry 🤣

Melso68 • 1 year ago

I love the smell of my washing. I'd never thought to wash on 30 or 20° I will be from now on. My friends have said they will be too.

xine • 1 year ago

I often wash at 30; but have never done cold. I tried cold, & liked the smell of the laundry; and it seems just as clean and fresh. However my machine needed to be re-set so that I could spin at the level I normally use. I did some whites at 30, and I was pleased to note that a food stain disappeared

Speedieron • 1 year ago

Unfortunately Evri as delivered my parcel to wrong Address and I can not try Ariel pods out I have complained to Evri who said they there aware of the problem but have not replied to me since 😩

Coggs34 • 1 year ago

Great scent on washing, dissolve well and work well at 30 degree wash. Like design of box and how it clicks.

ebonybeth • 1 year ago

I was very sceptical at washing my white bedding with a tea stain on a 30 wash but have been pleasantly surprised by the results, not only are they stain free but smell lush too

mel129 • 1 year ago

The scent is very overpowering for me personally and makes me sneeze. Ive used ariel before with no effects of sneezing. I love the box. The dogs bedding has come up really well and the perfume lasts a couple of days. We dont have a Tesco in our town and the nearest is a 30min drive away. I took the vouchers to the reception in Tesco and asked them to distribute them through their staff to use.

Jaq • 1 year ago

Really impressed with the cleaning power on a low temperature

clareallen • 1 year ago

I have just washed my sons bed sheets and they smell.amazing

Fletch46 • 1 year ago

I've now done a few loads of washing with these Ariel 3in1 pods at 30°c and I'm amazed at how clean the washing is coming out. Didnt actually believe that anything would remove stains on a cold wash but you've got me! Totally hooked 😁

redbull • 1 year ago

Really impressed with how good these wash at a lower temperature and leave clothes smelling so fresh

Dawnwhite • 1 year ago

Have always been too scared of using pods at 20c because of not dissolving properly. But all my fears have now gone.

Terminatrix • 1 year ago

I normally wash at 40 degrees but decided to wash at 30 degrees using the ariel pods. It cleans just as well and I'm saving money on bills!

Delboy7185 • 1 year ago

These are awesome . As a white goods installer I have to use hot temperatures to get my work gear clean. These pods do it at 30 degrees saving me time money and drying time. absolutely awesome.

Lurkin • 1 year ago

So far so good. I love the smell. I washed the kids school uniforms and 30oC and it got out all of the dirt and stickiness! Will keep going with other washes...I'm interested to see the results on stinky gym kit.

Delboy7185 • 1 year ago

I love these pods. As a white goods installer I have to put my work gear on a hot wash. These pods allowed me to do the same wash on 30 degrees giving me the same results. Absolutely awesome.

Suzybabes2008 • 1 year ago

Hey all! Sorry late posting as been poorly! But got hubby doing the washing and she was so impressed with the smell of these pods. He never comments on the washing usually 🤣

Doshtwo • 1 year ago

Ariel pods have made my life so much easier! They are incredibly convenient, and the fact that I can just pop one in the washing machine and get the same great clean that I would from some scoops of detergent powder in cold water is amazing. Plus, the bright and cheerful packaging of Ariel pods just adds to the joy of doing laundry!

elainey • 1 year ago

Hello, l am thrilled to be using the Ariel pods. My first wash was a cream throw with a tea stain on. Not a problem with this detergent, the stain washed right out and only on a 30 degree wash. My neighbour has purchased the pods using one of the money off coupons, and tells me she too, was pleased with her mixed colours wash. Two happy ladies!

Doshtwo • 1 year ago

Doing laundry on 30 degrees saves you some energy. Absolutely amazing cost saving advantage

Octobergirl • 1 year ago

Used today - low temp - really surprised how good they are at 40deg

Octobergirl • 1 year ago

Going to try lower next wash

AlyG77 • 1 year ago

I have done a few loads already. On the whole, they’re great. I did have a jumper with a few greasy stains on the front. It got rid of most, but not all, on a 30* wash.

Wakeyoo • 1 year ago

Having changed over to 30c and using these pods I am amazed at the wash quality, I've been wasting energy all this time.. The white have never been whiter and the colours are still coloured.

sam1089 • 1 year ago

Loves these pods, they wash my laundry really well at 20°

Dawny46 • 1 year ago

They smell absolutely lovely, I wasn’t expecting great results at a lower temperature,but I was pleasantly surprised,the only thing is my boys white socks stain badly at school p.e ,but it lifted most of the stains out ,just the odd few faint marks stayed put ,next test will be my white bedding which has make up and tan on ,so il post further details on that

Nicky80 • 1 year ago

This is the cleanest freshest smell Iv smelt !! My clothes bedding and towels smell amazing!!! 🥰

Ingusha • 1 year ago

Ariel Colder was great experience for me and my family.I love it 😍 I can’t imagine how it brilliantly worked for my clothes.

Carolsaunders • 1 year ago

Love the smell and also the fact that my washing comes out sparkling. I also like the fact that the box is recyclable.

HannaT84 • 1 year ago

They smell unreal, I've just done all the bedding including a single duvet and the whole of the upstairs smells amazing!
Even the washing over the clothes horse smells fab!

Oljazel • 1 year ago

Love the smell,absolutely amazing results!!!!

Metters • 1 year ago

First time I have ever used Ariel and got to say I am impressed. I was very sceptical about washing at a lower temperature but I wasn't disappointed. I used one pod and did a mid week load, didn't use the tumble dryer, I dried this on the airer with the dehumidifier on and all I could smell in the room when I went in was the washing, it was lovely. In fact I had one of the items on at work today and I have been able to smell the scent all day. Will be buying again

Emmar12345 • 1 year ago

Wow

Leahd • 1 year ago

I’ve shared all of the coupons and told friends and family how fab the pods are at low temp (30) and have my towels on washing now - love it

Leahd • 1 year ago

I’ve also shared to Facebook groups to spread the word

agn3k • 1 year ago

Just received my pack and they work well on delicate whites without nasty stains, however I still have to test them on white cotton, which I normally wash at at least 60 degrees and I'm not sure if they can be safely used on bright colours. Have you had any experience? I usually buy special detergents protecting colours and I'm not sure if these pods are equally protecting.

agn3k • 1 year ago

One more question - I will share the coupons with my friends, but can I share on Olio too?

rritta83 • 1 year ago

I'm so happy with the result. They clean very well on 30°C and smell amazing!

SuzPaul2015 • 1 year ago

Love these

Magsom • 1 year ago

Loving using the new Ariel Pods at 30 degrees clothes are so clean and fresh. Great knowing we are doing our bit for a greener climate

atthews • 1 year ago

I have used these PODS over the last 4 days. I like the fact you can use one product to do whites, colours or lights. On Wednesday I washed my running kit plus Hubbie's football kit on a low temperature & I was impressed with how clean & fresh the clothes were. I shall definitely we purchasing these in the future, as you can wash at low temperatures saving you money. In our household the washing machine is on 7 days a week, so every money saving product is a bonus.

cdawgx • 1 year ago

Yaaaaas! I've been distributing these coupons to loved ones like tulips on a sunny Spring day because we could all do with a little more joy given the rising cost of living and incessant miserable weather. And results have been as expected :) Everyone is truly wowed, as I was, with the wonderful scent and softness of their washing after using these pods on a cold wash. Other feedback I've received include 'good value for money' in terms of a single pods capability of washing a 'medium-sized load' and decent stain removal on school uniforms.

Fangfaiee • 1 year ago

Very effective in cleaning at 30 degrees and absolutely love the smell! Friends are loving it too!

stuart • 1 year ago

Brilliant on a 30 degree wash

Christineken2003 • 1 year ago

I was really sceptical about doing a 30 degree wash but it did the job perfectly , not only were they clean they smell really nice

Dibbler • 1 year ago

reviewed PODS on facebook, given my bestie some samples. Well pleased

Whenidream • 1 year ago

Tried my first wash today with these. Maybe it's because I didn't use conditioner, but wasn't too impressed with the smell and texture as with my usual powder and conditioner. Washed at 30 degrees instead of my usual 40 and seems to have jone the job otherwise; tomorrow I'll try another wash adding my usual conditioner.

Softanddoughy • 1 year ago

Love love love, can't believe how clean the washing is on a low temperature and they smell lovely too.

Sania11 • 1 year ago

First time wash with Ariel. My clothes and bedding smell fresh and remove stain very well even on a cold wash and low temperature.

adelejarvis • 1 year ago

I’m loving the Ariel pods fabulous fragrance and so easy to use

Ahen • 1 year ago

I loved the smell and it appeared to wash just as well as at 40 degrees.

Spudsausage • 1 year ago

Cleans well smells fresh

Dawneeeeee • 1 year ago

Besides the discount of £1 on a box of Aerial pods, those I have given vouchers to have all said that they have lowered the temperature on their wash loads, due to the fuel costs, and were all eager to try the new pods. All positive!

Dawneeeeee • 1 year ago

I am doing my first washes with the pods any second now! Will report back tomorrow!

Boris78 • 1 year ago

I have always used a different famous brand since forever…..I’m converted, love love love them. The whole house smells amazing and the clothes stay smelling fresh of Ariel!
No going back for me. 😊

Mollie04 • 1 year ago

Surprised me how clean the clothes were on a 30 wash

Dazzler • 1 year ago

I did my wash at 20° and even my gym clothes smelt great… I don’t again my clothes really but everything came out clean and they smell lovely

MaJohnson • 1 year ago

I have used Ariel PODS quite a few times now and result is perfect every time. All my kitchen towels that had a few marks on before are clean once again. And smell is amazing too
#washcolderchallenge

cosmicgirl80 • 1 year ago

Wow, what an incredible smell that came out of the washing machine! It even stayed on the clothes after going through the dryer.
The 30 degree wash went very well. The mud stained clothes washed out really well! Next I will be trying out the pods on whites.

AlwaysBeZef • 1 year ago

So far so good I love how it takes some of the tough stains I've had in clothes out and it smells wonderful. I've posted on my Instagram just got to share to Facebook. I've handed out 2 3rds of the coupons out so only a few to go :)

Queenieb • 1 year ago

Loving the smell from these pods, washing has come out great after a 30 wash. Shared all my coupons with my colleagues after we had chats at the water cooler or making a cuppa, they have already used the coupons.

Taabz1 • 1 year ago

I love how easy it is to use these pods, just put it in the drum with your wash load and let the pod do the magic.
It smells amazing and everything comes out spotless on a 30 degree wash.
Handed out my coupons and my family and friends can’t wait to see what the hype is about.

zoemc1976 • 1 year ago

Shared some of my coupons and been chatting about washing colder with Ariel. My washing smells fab out of the machine and I've found out my 30° wash is a shorter programme! Win win all around!!

natkitt • 1 year ago

Braved a few cold washes lol very happy with the results so far

Fini • 1 year ago

It was my first time using a POD EVER!!! And I have to say I am impressed. The smell was lovely and my clothes had no white marks that the powder leaves at times on dark clothing. Will definitely be moving to PODS.

andrewbrydon • 1 year ago

I am very impressed! I said to my partner about 30° washing; she was sceptical too especially with my sons school trousers. They were covered in mud. They came out clean and fresh smelling as did the rest of the load.

LIsajoanne • 1 year ago

I’ve been spreading the word about Ariel Pods and their amazing cleaning power! I’ve also been most impressed by the scent of my laundry after I’ve used an Ariel Pod in comparison to my usual shop’s own product! An excellent product 👍🏻

Nageena1975 • 1 year ago

Love the smell and clothes get vegan also

e-numbers • 1 year ago

I’ve done my first wash on 30 degrees and I love the scent. I also love how easy it is to use, just put in the drum then add your clothes, no mess! I had a stained tea towel and although it hasn’t totally got rid of the stain, I can see a difference. Perhaps it needs a longer wash. So far I’m impressed

CatkellyX • 1 year ago

My washing smells so fresh!! I haven’t used a product that keeps it’s fresh smell for as long as these do!

gem456 • 1 year ago

Really enjoying these pods. I have never washed at 20 before. I didn’t think it would clean as well and that the pods wouldn’t dissolve properly but neither of those things happened I was really impressed! I also love the cardboard packaging

TimeIsPrecious • 1 year ago

Oh these smell good! Just put in my first load - cottons at 30! nothing stained so all should be well. tomorrow am doing some jeans, which has yogurt on them - will take some photos see how that goes.

Jax27 • 1 year ago

I couldn’t believe how clean my laundry was even washing at 30. I’m definitely hooked on Ariel pods and will definately buying them in the future.

Lim • 1 year ago

Wow ariel pods have just done a wash ( work clothes) and am amazed not only are they really clean they smell amazing

Clarabell • 1 year ago

If you have any boys, then you'll know how dirty they can get at school. My sons trousers were filthy as usual. Popped in the machine with a pod and temperature down to 30. To my amazement they are stain and mud free......and smelling gorgeous.

Soniaxoxo84 • 1 year ago

I have gave all my coupons out and I am so astonished how well my clothes are being cleaned and smell so great on such a cold wash, thank u so much SuperSavvy for letting me try these Ariel pods, am so impressed and so excited for my family and friends to try them too,totally recommend them it’s a must
