Some pretty much don’t work. Target (only) sells liquid Tide ULTRA Stain Release in an UNSCENTED version. It is highly rated. It’s in a white plastic container, not the usual orange. I also like the house brand unscented dryer sheets sold at WalMart. By the way, Consumer Reports says the laundry detergent sheets will clean, but not as well as liquid detergent.

I found the same thing. I tried the washing machine sheets and found they did not remove stains as well as the liquid or pods.
