DYLON Washing Machine Fabric Dye Pod for Clothes & Soft Furnishings, 350g – Ocean Blue

Really good dye. Worked well. I dyed a pair of jersey trousers, a tee shirt, a pair of shorts and a small dress. The colour ended up a lovely Royal Navy , which I knew would happen (intentionally) as I put slightly more weight in. Even dye. Would recommend.

I bought this 'Espresso Brown' dye with the intention of dying two old cotton throws, each of which was approx 1.2m square, and which had previously been dyed bright orange several years ago. The total dry weight of fabric was about 1.6kg, which is greater than the maximum weight stated for one pod of dye, but all I wanted to do was to tone down the existing colour. I had expected that I might end up with a sort of terracotta shade, but wasn't really too concerned about the end result, so figured that it was worth a punt using a single dye pod. I gave the throws a quick pre-wash to leave them damp and then followed the pack instructions, emptying the contents straight into the machine drum as indicated for larger quantities of fabric, and putting it through two full cotton cycles, with detergent added in the second cycle. The end result is an even coverage, and the shade is a rich 'chocolate' brown, not much lighter than the shade indicated by the manufacturer, which was surprising given the excess weight of fabric I was using. There was no staining left behind in the machine or on the door seals, despite the alarmingly dark colour during the process. All in all the product was easy to use and produced better results than I expected. My only criticism is that the instructions are printed on a long narrow strip of paper in tiny letters less than 1mm high, and are in white on a black background, which makes it very difficult to read. My eyesight is fine for reading most things, but even with reading glasses on I also needed a magnifying glass to read the instructions properly.

I was dying a pair of tracksuit bottom with intense black. The process was easy and the colour is amazing. It’s a true deep black, full coverage and makes them look like new again. However…. lol…… The washing machine has taken a bit of a battering! One load was with the dye, second load was with the joggers and a washing capsule. Both were 2hr 50 washes. After second wash I sprayed and wiped the rubbers and then Put it on for an empty wash with extra washing product. It still had black coming off the rubber when I wiped it. I’m now on my third empty wash to try and get rid of it! It’s put me off as it’s using so much water and I don’t feel I can risk a load of washing until it’s clean. Three photos showing cleaning rim after each wash… 4th rinse is still in ……..

What a brilliant item. The last time I used a dye was 25 years ago when it was put in a large pan on the stove and the item boiled with salt for hours. This is SO EASY!!!! No mess and the items came out great and not patchy. Would definitely recommend if you want to update colours in your wardrobe. I chose all white cotton items to dye. Very happy with the whole process.

This is absolutely brilliant. Window seat cover was old fashioned floral, and dirty and faded. I was sceptical but followed instructions to a T. It was a simple process. I was quoted £250 to make a new cover and I have this as new for under £10! Highly recommend.

Really effective product. I used these for my black canvas Carhartt trousers which were very sun-faded and this worked a treat. This restored it to its original darkness which was perfect. I'd say use one pod per item of clothing. The only downside of this isn't due to the item itself, as after washing the clothes to make them clean and wet, you do have to run a cycle with the pod in then and completely empty wash cycle. Other than that this item is perfect.

Used it to colour a white shirt and a T-shirt using the deep black colour. The t-shirt is a bluish grey, and the shirt is a dark grey. These are light weight, 0.5kg so should have worked well. It coloured them but not the expected dark colour. It’s ok, not amazing result.

I was looking to recolor some stuff that was looking pretty color worn, so i decided to try the Dylon Grey washing machine pod. You get enough dye for 600g, that is essentially one pair of trousers and one shirt, or say a few smaller items. I picked the grey, because it was the closest color to my faded trousers that I could get. Preperation is fairly simple, you wash the clothes first (unless they require a pre dye solution), then add the dylon pod to the wash. Select cotton 40 degrees and let the pod wash the clothing. Once that is done, depending on washing machine time, you will need to then rewash the clothes again in normal detergent. Hang up to dry, do not use a tumble dryer for this process. You then need to wash the machine again empty, to make sure you have removed any remaining dye. There are many variables to a successful dye wash, one being the material is suitable for the dye, the color. The wash time for the machine can vary considerably for a full forty degree wash, can take as long as three hours. It is not recommended you use any eco wash load cycles either. I had a successful outcome, both clothes (trousers and hoodie), (which had color worn wear marks), looked better and should last a few more months longer. I was impressed at the results on these fabrics. There was no color patchiness I just let the clothes dry naturally. The pods are reasonably priced and very good value if you want to try and save a piece of clothing that is materially dull or lost some of its color. Something to consider however: The amount of time needed in the washing machine for a forty degree wash for the dye pod can be as long as 3-4 hours in wash cycles. This does not include at least two more hours for pre-wash of clothing before use and then another post wash to clean the machine after use. This time will vary between machines though, so maybe slightly longer or shorter depending on the make and model of machine you own. Pros: Easy to use, comes in a range of dye colors, comprehensive instructions. Cons: Does not work on synthetics, must be 40 degree wash and may require a pre dye wash pod too.

Dyed 5 pairs of navy chinos as they were starting to fade, easy to do, no mess. Came out as good as new.

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.

This item makes dying fabric easy. And the color is long lasting. Throw the packet into the washing machine and let it do its job. I have used this several times and find it to be dependable for color intensity and length of time to last. It’s also easy to clean the washing machine when done. It’s not the cheapest but the end result makes it definitely worth the money.
