Has the Softly lid changed?
We recently changed the Softly Lid. The decision was made to change the bottle dueto economies of scale and the cost to re-order the older style pour- bottles. We decided to opt for the current bottle and therefore leave the retail price the same rather than adding a significant price increase to cover the new cost of the specialty pour bottle product. As an Australian based manufacturer these decisions have to be made from time to time to remain competitive in the market place and, as this is the same bottle we use across the Huggie and Martha Gardener Wool Mix ranges, we are confident in its performance. Though we understand, it is a little different to what you have been used to with the traditional Softly bottle.
