I've been using this product for a year and have never had a problem. My numbers always stay the same and once you figure out how much salt you need per gallon its right on the money. It comes in nice screw lid 5gal buckets too so you have something useful when you use all the salt.

Cons:

Bad Salt

While this salt is commonly used there specific ion concentrations seem terribly out of balance with just about every test done which indicates substandard manufacturing which has led to alot of reports of lost livestock as a result of the inconsistent mixing
