Morton 20-lb Water Softener Salt Block

Convenient and safer

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These salt bars are so much easier and safer for me to carry down the basement stairs than the usual 40 lbs bags of salt. It isn't just the lighter weight, but also the more compact size that makes them so much easier to handle. Even though you need two bags of the salt bars to equal one 40 lbs bag, it is still so much easier. However, I was disappointed that the salt bars did not last very long. The first two bags of salt bars (eight t...

Interesting idea

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was intrigued by this new form for water softener salt when I first saw it. Stacking a few blocks of salt in the softener salt bin sure sounds easier than lugging giant bags of salt downstairs. That certainly is 100% true. The bag had an easy carrying handle and opened easy. I just pulled out the blocks and arranged them on top of the salt that was still left in the tank. I haven't noticed any difference in my water from using these blocks vs...

Very easy

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Morton waves are a game changer when it comes to salt for the water softener. They are very compact and easy to carry. They fit in your shopping basket and weigh half of what a full bag of salt weighs. The handle on the bag makes it extremely easy to transport and it's a lot easier on your back. Placing the salt bars in your softener is easy and you don't have to worry about spilling salt everywhere. Just set them in the brine tank and...

Easy to Use and Works Fantastic!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Typically my husband has to handle buying the salt for our water softener. Those enormous bags are like lifting the weight of a sleeping preschooler. Because they flop around, the weight is exponentially heavier. These salt bars solve the big, heavy, floppy bag problem. Don't get me wrong, the weight is still there, but the dense, compact shape means I can lift the package close to my core, which is ideal for those of us with joint or back issu...

Simple to use and they work great

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Morton Waves Clean and Protect Plus Rust Defense Water Softener bars are so easy to use. I love that they fit in one hand and I can just place them in my tank. No more lugging around heavy bags and pouring them into the tank and making a mess everywhere. These are mess free and light. Each bar is 5 lbs so it can easily be carried and lifted into the tank. They work great too. My water is very soft. I like that they do not leave any residue behi...

Talk about convenience!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I waited awhile to write this review because I wanted to see how it compares to the salt that we usually use in our in home water softener. First of all it comes in a compact bag that stores easily for storage. The salt is easy to add to the system since they come in bars. I also want to add that since using this brand in comparison to my normal go to brand, I have noticed that my skin and hair are much softer. I have also noticed that my glass...

I'm Sold!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm a single woman, and I've struggled with heavy water softener crystals for years. Kudos to Morton for creating the bars. They come in a smaller bag with a strong handle for carrying. It's easy to seal after pulling out a few bars. The best part is being able to easily place or stack the light-weight bars in the water softener. No more lugging a heavy bag. I already had Morton crystals in the softener and just added the bricks as needed. When...

So awesome

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I got this bag, it totally wasn't what I was expecting. The photo makes it look like they are going to be tiny barsoap sized rectangles. NOPE! They are BRICK SIZED! So awesome. You get 4 giant bricks in one bag, which they say is equivalent to half of a regular 40lbs bag. So two of these smaller bags (lets say 20lbs equivalent) will get you to match. I live in Texas, and we have crazy hard and rusty water, so I've been using the green bag ...

Kudos to Morton for great new design plus quality!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally! A solution for those of us who struggle to carry giant bags of salt to our water softener! I'm not only excited about the new, easier-to-carry design - I am also excited about the quality water we still get in our home. The Texas Hill Country area has some of the harshest water in our country and having a dependable water softener system is a must for protecting all our plumbing and appliances. These Morton Waves are great quality and ...

Way easier

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I never even knew this existed until about a month ago and I’m so happy to have found it! I’ve been lugging heavy bags of salt for my water softener and they are hard to open and pour into it without making a mess. When I found out they made bars I couldn’t wait to try them. They are still quite heavy but instead of having to wrangle an awkward bag while trying to pour, these just drop right in with no mess, no fuss! The bars actually seem to l...
