An independent Clean Wise evaluation of Tide Tide Simply Clean & Fresh Liquid Laundry Detergent, Daybreak Fresh, 25 loads, 1.09 L, built from the published ingredient disclosure, intended use and directions.
Follow manufacturer directions carefully. This category often includes concentrated cleaners, products that need proper dilution, or that require adequate drying time before dog contact.
Scored from a complete published ingredient disclosure and directions.
Our independent, evidence-based evaluation of this product across every Clean Wise exposure category, scored for how the product is actually used. Sponsorship is never an input. Cleaning performance is shown separately below and does not affect this score.
Cleaning strength cannot be measured reliably from an ingredient list, so it is kept as separate information and is excluded from the Clean Wise safety score.
A workable everyday option when the directions are followed closely.
Canadian retailers on record. Stock and price vary by store and province.
Transparency is scored on its own, before anything else. It measures how much of this formula the maker actually publishes — not how good the formula is.
Solid disclosure. The published list is complete enough for the ratings below to be evidence-based.
Disclosed ingredients in the order they appear on the label, with our independent assessment where we hold reference data.
