I didn't mind the "slimy" feel with the salt; I would have called it a silky feel. And it did not leave any water spots at all, period. But my husband thought it felt slimy and is much happier with the potassium chloride. And the water spots are few.
We don’t have a water softener just the Nova whole house system and the water feels and tastes just fine
