AI generated summary based on reviews added by customers
Customers are impressed with the finely chopped beech shavings, which are dust-free and ideal for bird and small animal enclosures. The bedding is easy to maintain, binds droppings, and doesn't smell musty. While some find it less absorbent for urine, overall, it's praised for its quality and ease of use. Birds seem to enjoy playing with it, and it keeps cages cleaner for longer periods. Highly recommended for its pleasant smell and non-dusty nature.

For budgies, only partially recommended.
I tried this beech wood shavings and the maize granulate for our budgies. Maize granulate – brilliant. It does get thrown out of the cage, but that's much worse with the beech wood shavings!
The budgies seem to prefer the maize granulate too... :-)

Bad for digging
I no longer use this substrate for my corn snakes. They have great difficulty burrowing into it. I’ll mix the remaining substrate with other ground material!

Pointy little wooden pieces, such a shame!
Although I’m really impressed with the wood bedding, I noticed that there were sharp wooden splinters in it, which I had to pick out by hand to make sure my little ones didn’t get hurt.
I had ordered the medium grain size, but it turned out to be too fine. When the animals rush around the cage, the bedding gets thrown out.
I’ll give the XXL grain size a try next time.

There are better options for rats.
Doesn't suck very well, but at least it doesn't stick to the paws.

Parrots
I tested this bedding and am relatively satisfied. Our parrot just about threw everything out of the cage (which he clearly enjoyed doing). Therefore, I wouldn’t necessarily recommend this product for parrots. Otherwise, beech wood shavings are very hygienic and easier to handle than sand, as they don’t create as much dust.
