Well,you need good suggestion. I suggest you to buy this product. I have a nice experience with and would be very helpful to you. But, be aware from the duplicate products. So, let's get try on it.

So, which product is that?

Hi, I am using Spamalot 5000 since long time and I found it the best water softener I ever had... Just give it a try and I'm sure you will like it too. One of my friend suggested me this and I found full review <somewhere>. It provide a best reviews about the products. You can refer it too if you want.

All the Best,

Bella

Spam alert - let's all wait for the next person to pop up and offer to sell you one of these...

They are improving though with spamming SMF fora. normally they used to make an account, do 5 to 10 posts quickly then vanish, leaving the breadcrumbs behind to increase the page rank of the spam site. Now they register, wait a few months and do a slower trickle of posts, and these did not even try to drop a URL directly, just looking for search ranking improvements to bring them up. Sneaky, will have to look out for that.

I love <DON’T ADVERTISE ON THIS FORUM> Bought this for our winter stay in an RV Park in Florida. The water here is very hard so thought this would be worth a try. Well, installed it, and what a difference!! Our water hardness was 180 and is still at zero (0) after three weeks of use.

Not my ability here though..... Only can do the report thing, and let an admin do the needful.

Spam Salt was rated the best water softener pellet. The only problem is that the bag is so heavy for an old lady with arthritis to manage. My next purchase will be a hand cart to get them where they need to go and a prayer that I can actually lift them into the softener.

Why would you buy one that only worked on US-branded water?

Maybe they are very patriotic.
We had a buy British appeal many years ago; I remember seeing a sticker in the back window of a uk registered Renault.

...and I recommend you for an advertizing ban - moderator

I bought the Camco water softener to use in my camper. After hooked the filter into the line, the water is now potable with only a slight rubber accent. By running the water from the faucet through a Brita pitcher, it tastes and smells fine.
