DYLON Washing Machine Fabric Dye Pod for Clothes & Soft Furnishings, 350g – Sandy Beige

Reading some of the more negative reviews, I thought this new approach of chucking in the dye within a container would be problematic. Not so! All in one product (no more kilos of salt to buy) & no more emptying out of the dye into the drum - nice and straightforward with less room for accidents. I've been using Dylon's range of dyes for a few years now and this latest format makes it even more simple than the previous all-in-one pouch. To improve your chances of a consistent result, follow the instructions but be aware dirt or soap residues are the enemies to the dyeing process. So I ensure the wash before dyeing is a thorough one, with no fabric conditioner. You could try using distilled white vinegar as a conditioner replacement (useful when you've run out or for towels that you need to stay absorbent), because it helps by neutralising any remaining soap. Choose the highest spin setting your machine offers to get rid of all of those residues. Then, clean out the detergent/conditioner drawer and run another rinse cycle with just water, selecting the option for 'water plus' if your machine has the function to boost the amount of water used in the rinse process. The aim is to make sure there's nothing but clean detergent free fabric. Place the Dylon pod on top of the freshly-washed well-rinsed damp fabrics and follow the remaining instructions for the experience you've been dyeing to see. 4 wash cycles (cleaning, dyeing, after dye wash, machine clean-out wash) per batch of clothes is a bit energy intensive, so you might want to wait until you've got enough items to rejuvenate or for when it coincides with your scheduled machine maintenance wash and run a limescale treatment during the final clean-out wash killing two birds with one stone, to justify the 'leccy costs. But, it's better than looking scruffy or throwing out garments and your machine will most certainly be free of germs after the whole process. Several cups of tea later... results were uniform colour throughout. I chose the Navy Blue option (the product picture shot isn't that accurate in the colour shade - it appears online as a denim blue). Results were a nice and deep uniform blue to several items all done at the same time (3 pairs of partially faded navy trousers, 2 casual navy shirts that looked a little tatty and a light blue t-shirt). One dye pod was enough to refresh all the garments to look crisp and close to new again without looking artificially over coloured. I was a little apprehensive worried I'd get blotchy results claimed by other reviewers, but following the instructions which state to run on a 40 degrees cotton cycle, the results were as good as Dylon's previous generation all-in-one pouch, minus any dyed fingers. Trust me, the dye powder can get everywhere if it's mishandled, the pod just makes it all nice and simples.

The DYLON Washing Machine Fabric Dye Pod worked perfectly for refreshing my jeans. It was incredibly easy to use—just pop it in the machine and let it do its thing—with no mess or complicated steps. The colour came out even and vibrant, making the jeans look almost new again. The results were much better than expected, and everything rinsed cleanly with no issues. Purchased from Amazon and arrived exactly as described. A simple, effective solution for giving clothes a new lease of life—highly recommended. 👖✨

Works perfectly providing you follow instructions. If it doesn’t work, you’ve not followed the instructions properly. Colour consistency is great. Only marking it down as quite expensive.

Excellent I dyed a set of pink towels that were still good but looking a bit grey & they are now like a new set. Lovely rich colour plum/purple colour. After a pre wash & another cycle after dyeing with fabric softener they are lovely & fluffy too.

Absolutely LOVE this dye for refreshing black jeans. Easy to use, does not stain your drum or machine. Gives good coverage - however I would recommend two pods for a pair of jeans. Great for recycling your old washed out black clothes.

Bought this on the basis that it was a machine dye and a good brand. Needed to dye a cotton orange sweatshirt with stubborn blue ink stains. The result wasn’t bad, not as dark as I’d have liked. The main problem was the dying process. Followed instructions to the letter however machine was left with blue flakes of colour & staining on rubber seal. Used 3 cotton washes (2 for the dying process and 1 to try & remove the dye) x2 drum clean programmes (high temp) and a further rinse / drain cycle. I also wiped the machine with a cloth and soapy water three times . I don’t feel confident about using this again. Obviously the user & machine (Bosch) might have contributed but for the life of me I can’t think how The photo is of the inside rim of the gasket after all those washes

Did a full load of towels that I had accumulated over the years. They were various shades of white, now a stunning mid blue. No smell, easy to use and now I don’t need to buy new towels.

Great product, easy to use and good result

Did not change the color at all and I followed the directions.

غاليه ومبتعملش حاجه عن تجربه انصح بسبغه اليد افضل

Wie immer perfekt

I died two canvas Ikea chair covers purple with Ritt dye years ago. They had faded to an ugly grey purple. I wanted to re-dye them but dreaded the pot on stove, add salt, mess. Saw these pods online and wanted to try them. I used one pod per chair cover. I dyed each chair cover separately (in part bc I ordered one pod to try and only ordered another when it worked). I was afraid it wouldn't work because I have a front loader. But when you read the directions, these pods are from the UK and designed for front loaders. It was so easy. Just follow the directions and run an empty cycle after to make sure your washer is clean. Very happy with results.

Love this stuff the color works like a charm. Easy to use. Follow directions. Came out perfect!
