This product is labeled as "hard" for hard water and also says it's "smashing pumpkins" scent, but the picutre shows otherwise....Which is correct?

How incredibly rude (the previous answerers). This is very much a detergent and yes it works, if it didn't it wouldn't have such great reviews. The picture is wrong, the listing is correct.

This isn't actually a detergent. It won't get anything clean. Save your time and money and Run away. Run far, far away.

The picture shown may not reflect the "flavor" you're purchasing. Honestly, it doesn't work, is use a different detergent.

it says cotton on the bag and tag... its woven with hard nylon strings that scrub the dirt and grime from your body... however i found that this is inconsistent.... you could get one that's hard while another feels like a scratch wash cloth or doesn't feel like anything at all. i bought four of them and there's no indication on the package of their 'intensity'. though i do like them you're better off with another brand if you want consistency in your product.

I don't know, this was my first and last time buying this product. I brought because of some positive reviews I saw. The scent was not strong but it did not clean well. I went back to using Trader Joe's liquid laundry detergent. Then I started adding Borax and Washing Soda as boosters, which even cleans better without harsh chemicals.

Yes, it is both. I usually do first thing in the shower and then let it sit while I bathe and then rinse. Love their product, but I would advise against the Fall Apple...I think it stink bad!! To me it smells like burnt caramel. I think you would be happy with their stuff.

I bought a different brand of pumpkin seed powder and now I'm buying this one, but I can tell you that that one smelled funky to me either, until I recalled the smell of pumpkin seeds and remembered that they have a funky smell (at least to me, lol), I decided to keep using it based on that and I never had any issues (and my system is highly sensitive). Though, I don't want to guess whether or not yours is rancid in error, definitely return it if you are concerned (if you haven't already) and try another brand. I do agree w/ the idea it could be the zinc issue b/c I've only 'smelled' that strong smell for 5 days out of the month when eating it, so interesting...afraid I was the only one...

I also have hard water and have no problem with the product though I have been told that it works better with soft water. I think it performs better with as a booster to your regular detergent. Hope this helps.

Yes...this product has a fairly strong scent to it, but it isn't a bad scent. It doesn't smell like chemicals or anything like that. The best way I can describe it is the scent is more like a mixture of floral and fruit scents...not unpleasant at all.

There is a fragrance - not too strong, but it is definitely not "fragrance free".

I purchase distilled water from the store. The white residue is mineral deposits from your water source. Distilled water has no hard water mineral deposits.

You know this is a very good question, however I have never checked it. I don't believe it is changed but this is just a guess on my part. I think it would still be considered hard water.

Hmmmmm.... You know what, PrairieGirl? You may be onto something here. Usually my research is very extensive, but it has been a while since I purchased this Sprite bath filter and I see now from the description that they are using a lot of "buzz" words that really mean nothing. I went to their website just now and they say even less. Originally, this was meant to filter out chlorine, which I did notice a difference in smell, but now I just use my shower filter to fill up the tub. Thanks for the question. It helped to enlighten me! I certainly won't be buying this product anymore. Hmmmmm.... You know what, PrairieGirl? You may be onto something here.

Yes, I find that Culligan ISH-100 has really soften up my water. I have well and it's very hard water...my skin was really dry until I used Culligan - it's not so soft that you feel like you still have soap on but it's soft enough that my skin isn't dry and cracking any longer.

The carbon appears to be pressed / extruded into tube form and looks much like spaghetti. It is also very hard which might indicate low porosity. It also does not come in the bag that is pictured. There is minimal dusting when rinsed and I believe this is due to its hardness. I use it in my freshwater aquarium and it has been working well. I have proved this by performing full spectrum testing of the water.

Hi. I really like this product. It has a very soft scent. It isn't overpowering. Hope this helps!!

Hard spray. It pisses my wife off if I leave it in spray mode. She turns it on and it splashes water all over.

I didn't realize there was a difference! I just checked my jar of unscented, and it doesn't say "Strong" anywhere on it like it shows in the picture. Hope that helps.
