Tide Ultra - yay or nay?

Hearing so many conflicting opinions!

And is Tide Original no longer available anywhere?

I use it and have had no issues with it. I can't find regular Tide anywhere anymore. I even use the recommended amount on the side of the box (first line) rather than the 1 tbsp. or whatever the suggested amount usually is for diapers.

I just before to do a cycle with a double rinse then rinse one more time after that.

It gets my diapers way cleaner than the other eco-friendly, no additive stuff I was supposed to be using.

This exactly. I fill to the 1st line and they come out perfect

I can still buy regular Tide at our Big Lots but their supply is dwindling (I have 4 boxes). I tried Tide Ultra on our diapers once and didn't think it worked well, so I scouted out the Original, and use the Ultra on our clothes.

I'm so thankful for these comments. I HATE RNG so I bought a box of tide ultra to switch. I've got horrible ammonia with RNG and I don't use very much detergent at all!

I haven't been able to find original Tide anywhere so we have just been using Ultra Tide on everything- diapers, clothes, etc and I love it. We used Charlie's for a while before A was born and Tide just gets the clothes so much cleaner. I have never had a problem with it and our diapers are doing great. (We use BG 4.0 with AFFF inserts or Thirsties prefolds trifolded and stuffed into the pocket. Our NB stash was XS BG AIO and we had no problems there either.)

Thank you! I'm sold

I'm using Tide Ultra and so far, so good. I found the original Tide at Big Lots, but I have a front-loading HE washer and I didn't think I should use the non-HE original Tide in it, so Tide Ultra HE it is.
