The only problem with this product is availability. Many times it shows it is in stock and then you get the notice it's unavailable. Usually you get an option to have it shipped at no charge if you have Walmart plus. I don't know why they don't keep more in stock if they keep running out of it so often.
We have well water and a water softener however the water is still rusty. We love Morton Rust Pellets because they keep our water free from rust. I don’t have to clean the showers, toilets and sinks as often and our whites remain white much longer. Better than that I don’t have to load it in my car, Walmart delivers! Love it!
These pellets do a good job of lowering the effect of iron/rust buildup in my home water system and toilets. I can tell by the feel of the shower water when I run out of salt, it has a big impact on the softness of the water. The bags have a great built-in handle so they are easy to carry and the 40lb size manageable if you want to carry 2-4 bags at once to save trips.
Morton used to make Water Softener Salt Bricks that were shaped to stack together in the package they were sold in. It was so much easier for someone like me who isn't very strong anymore to be able to add them to my water softener one at a time. The bricks were a little more expensive than the pellets, but I didn't mind because it was so much more convenient to handle them, than these bags. Even a ten pound bag is hard on my back. My water container is 48 inches high and it's very hard to lift the bags up and over the container. I wish Morton would consider bringing the bricks back. I purchased several cases of them from Walmart several years ago and wish I had bought even more.
Best water softener salt for people with wells. It helps to get rid of the iron as well as other minerals. It is in pellets, so it does not contain bits of rock as some of the other brands do.
We don't have very many options to shop around where I live. My overall experience has been great. A few thing I've tried to buy through Walmart are more expensive than the other store I shop at, but the convenience of having groceries delivered is awesome.
It may have been a fluke, but WalMart delivered 160 lbs. of softener salt without any shipping charges. It was delivered to my front door and I moved to the basement at my leisure. Compare this to driving to Walmart for purchase or pick up and then having to schlep 4 40 lb. bags from the garage to the basement. Same $$$, far less effort!
Trusted brand. Heavy and awkward to move around. The handle is helpful. I have never had a bag break. I have not had any issue with my water softner since I started using this brand. I suggest having this product delivered. It will be easier than lugging it around at the store
I ordered softener salt and bird seed for delivery. When I went to the front door to retrieve my delivery only the bird seed I ordered was there. I then learned that I had to pick up my order. When I arrived at my local Walmart, I learned that my pickup is 20 miles away at a different Walmart. I am not satisfied. I would like to cancel this order.
I ordered 2 of the 5in 1 and the delivery person delivered 1 of the 5in1 and 1 4in 1. I’m owed a refund from Walmart and they demanded I take the incorrect delivered item back, why won’t Walmart send the incompetent delivery person back to pick up the incorrect item?
