I bought this Morton water softener salt because we’ve been noticing hard water spots on dishes and buildup on our appliances. I’ve now used it for a couple months by adding it to my water softener as recommended, and I can definitely say the water feels softer — our dishes and faucets have fewer spots, and my hair and skin feel less dry after showers. What I especially appreciate is that it’s made from all natural, high-purity salt crystals with no additives, and it’s really simple to pour thanks to the sturdy handle and easy-tear bag. That made it much easier to handle than I expected for a 40 lb bag. The only minor downside is that it took a little longer to dissolve in my system than I thought it would — not a deal-breaker, but worth noting if you’re used to pellet formulas. Still, overall it’s a solid product that does what it’s supposed to do, and I feel confident recommending it for anyone dealing with hard water and looking for a simple, natural solution.

My review may be a bit misleading as I do not own a water softener, but I do live in Minnesota which occasionally necessitates the use of deicer on our driveway and sidewalks. At first, I was disappointed as I had intended to order the finer salt crystals but after using it for the first time, I've "seen the light" and appreciate how this is better than the finer crystals in some situations. I'll definitely be stocking this going forward! Pouring it was a snap. Carrying the bag was no problem at all. The convenience of having the salt on hand when I need it is priceless.

Excellent product. It would be great if smaller bags were available. Yes, I reLize the unit price we would be marginally higher. However, my wife and I are both in our mid-70's and I have a progressive health condition that precludes my helping her with lifting, carrying, and pouring the large bags of salt.

IM NOT ABLE TO POUR INTO MY SOFTNER CONTAINER LIKE I USE TO DO. BUT IM BLESSED TO HAVE MY DAUGHTER TO DO IT. BUT I HAVE PUT IT ON MY WALKER THEN PUSHED IT UP TO THE SOFTNER AND SCOOPED IT OUT WITH A SAUCEPAN UNTIL IT WAS LIGHT ENOUGH TO POUR THE REST IN. PLEASE EXCUSE THE CAPS, I DONT SEE VERY WELL.

This salt is dual purpose for us. We use it in our water softener and it works great to de-ice the driveway and steps. I have also used it free a stuck car as it greatly improves traction on ice. I keep at least 1 bag in my plow truck for just such occasions.

We do not use this in a pool. We use this instead of rock salt. It is a nice fine grade. We also do not have to worry about any animals stepping on it. Dogs and some cats will swim in a pool and this of course does not hurt them. You do not have the mess that rock salt leaves. This works ten times better. Just make sure you use the "fine grade"

I have a rainsoft water softner system. I tried this out since it’s natural salt. However, it caused water from faucet to have a brown color and left brown slush at bottom. Tried this blue packet out since the yellow packet tended to leave brown slush in resin but gave clear water. The best by far is the green packet that not only did wonders to the water but left the container clean as well.

love this product. Works perfectly

does what its supposed to do
