Summary: smooth
Comment: This is a must have if you have Netti Pot
I tried using sea salt, but it felt a bit harsh & took a little longer to dissolve.

Summary: Neti Pot Salts
Comment: Salts work well in conjunction with the Neti Pot. Clears my sinuses and helps with allergy stuffiness. Good purchase for me
Customer Rating:
Summary: Works fine
Comment: I expected this salt to dissolve more easily than other store-bought brands, but it doesn't really. However, it does what it's supposed to, so I guess it's fine.

Summary: High-priced table salt
Comment: This is salt, people. You're paying through the nose for SALT!
The package insert with my Ancient Secrets brand neti pot states that "non-iodized table salt is the best source of the salt for mixing the saline solution."
You need 1/4 teaspoon, dissolved in warm water, for each use.
For a list price of $6.99 (on sale for $5.20 as I write this), you can buy 10 ounces of this Himalayan Institute non-iodized salt. That works out to 69.9 cents per ounce (or 52 cents at the discounted price) for plain old NaCl.
I bought a 14.5-ounce countainer of high-end natural gourmet table salt -- Cerulean Seas refined sea salt, fine crystals, completely additive-free and iodine-free -- for $1.59 (regular full price) at Whole Foods Market. It's food grade and pure, and costs less than 11 cents an ounce.
This Himalayan Institute salt says it's "pharmaceutical grade." The Cerulean Seas is "food grade." The quality standards are the same, and if anything, the food grade is purer.
The question is, do you want to pay 70 cents (or 52 cents) or 11 cents an ounce for salt?
Save your money.

Summary: perfect
Comment: We have used these (I have ordered 4 for each family member) and it has helped keep our sinus's clear. I am trying to cut down my dependency on sinus medication and this has really helped. I find using this in the morning is better than using it at night. Nighttime use seems to stop my ears up a little, but my husband likes to use it at night. To each his own.
