Haven't but it looks pretty good! I will give it a try since I can buy it locally, according to their site.

I've used layer crumbles which is a corn chicken feed for years in one of my boxes and my cats are perfectly healthy.

I use horse bedding pine pellets. Hands down my favorite for urine odor control! I don't water it down, and I've not had a cat refuse to use it.

I do use a clay litter for the kittens, as the pellets seem a little hard for tender feet I buy Dollar General's clay litter (comes in a blue bag at $3.00 for 20 lbs, can't think of the name). It's virtually dust free and semi-clumping, but in a bigger diameter than regular clumping--a no-no for kittens who like to eat litter when young!
As they get older, I start gradually adding the pellets to the clay. This might work for cats used to clay or another litter to get them used to the different feel of the pellets. I've tried the Feline Pine shaved litter...my cats made such a mess with that...so much fun for them, but not for me :/

I'm grateful that my boyz haven't boycotted any litter I've tried because I've tried a lot. I stopped using clay because of the dust; shweat started getting dusty so I switched to World's Best and have been using that for 2 yrs. but noticed that it appears to have more dust than before. I tried wood stove pellets and horse bedding pellets. Although the pellets were cheap, I went through them pretty fast and never felt that the litter boxes were clean enough. I prefer clumping litters. Dr. Elsey's wasn't too dusty. I've been thinking of using a combination of Elsey's & World's Best.

The purrandsimple looks interesting and I think I'll try a bag. Thanks for posting that Dantes.

I need to find a litter that masks the smell immediately after Nailah goes #2. Her little "treasures" will smell up the entire room for a good 5 minutes. Then it is gone. It's like the litter can handle the aftermath, but the first 5 min it's in shock!
