I cannot recommend it.
No solid clumps form; instead, they fall apart. This results in many small lumps that have to be laboriously removed. Allegedly, the litter can be disposed of in a regular toilet. However, I wouldn’t dare to do that, as the litter becomes sticky when wet. This also makes cleaning the cat litter box tedious because a sticky film forms on the bottom of the box, which gets even worse if you clean it with water.
The litter is dusty, and after a relatively short time, there’s hardly any odour control left. However, this might also be because it’s almost impossible to remove all the lumps from the litter box.

I'm thrilled, kitties so-so.
I honestly don’t know what to do with myself anymore out of boredom – no more constant changing of the litter and no more dust all over the bathroom. I’m absolutely thrilled! I can’t detect any unpleasant smell, and the cats don’t spend ages scratching around in it anymore (probably because they’re not entirely keen on the litter). Cleaning up around it isn’t any worse than with other types of litter. I was recommended this litter and would never have thought of buying it from an online shop on my own, as I didn’t believe in the listed benefits. I don’t even want to think about how much money I wasted on other types of litter, not to mention the work and stress (I have 11 cats, though not all of them exclusively use the litter box). In any case, I’m genuinely over the moon to have solved a few problems with this litter!!!

Super
First-class!
And the much-criticised scattering of the litter: Well, folks, that's just how it is with any litter. But here you can SEE it!

Very good clumping and odour control, very economical
I am 100% satisfied with this. The litter smells pleasant, somewhat like wood, and its efficiency is excellent. Despite having three cats, I hardly ever have to replace all the litter; I just remove the clumps and add a bit of fresh litter.
I also bought a mat here in the shop, made of plastic or silicone, which is very good. The litter gets caught in the grooves and doesn’t spread around the flat.
I don’t dispose of it via the toilet though, just because it’s biodegradable doesn’t mean it won’t clog the pipes...
Now that I’ve got the Littermaid, I’ll try the litter recommended by this manufacturer, as it’s supposed to be finer, and the electric rake won’t push as much clean litter into the container.
Otherwise, I’d continue using this litter—it’s been the best clumping litter I’ve tested so far. By the way, I’ve never had clumps fall apart; it might be due to the humidity in some bathrooms. I have a dehumidifier in mine.

Good litter, but...
Great litter, and disposing of it via the toilet is brilliant. But whatever work you save, you can put into cleaning instead! This litter has truly driven me to despair!!! All attempts to catch the scattered litter with mats have failed. Honestly, you might as well keep the vacuum cleaner and dustpan right next to the cat’s toilet. I never thought litter could spread around the house to this extent.
I will never buy it again.

The only thing that bothers me is the distribution in the flat.
Really good litter, after testing various types extensively, I’ll now only use this one.
It lasts forever, and a complete change isn’t even necessary after 3 weeks (Thomas cat litter started smelling awful after just one week).
Excellent clumping, the clumps don’t fall apart even when you shake off the remaining grains.
The most practical feature is disposing of it via the human toilet! No more smelly bin bags. And since the litter box is right next to our toilet, it doesn’t even lead to increased water usage (just clean it when you’re already using the toilet yourself).
The only downside is that the smaller crumbs stick to my cats’ paws (short-haired!) and get spread all over the flat. They end up in the bed, on the sofa, just everywhere. That’s why only 4 stars.

We three love it!
My two cats and I are absolutely thrilled that we found this litter! My older cat is very picky when it comes to this, but she loves it! It absorbs really well and lasts a long time. I clean the litter box daily and the large bag lasts me almost a quarter of a year! Simply brilliant!

Simply brilliant...
After testing various types of litter with my cat, our verdict is: we're sticking with this one!!!!
It's extremely economical, no unpleasant odours as everything gets trapped in the clumps, and after disposal: "fresh air" in the bathroom. There are no urine residues left at the bottom of the litter tray, which means it lasts longer.
There's only one downside: the litter is constantly sold out at the moment, and delivery times are quite long, leaving you feeling a bit helpless.

Beach paradise throughout the entire flat
Cat's Best Öko Plus might be ideal for short-haired cats. However, for our pair of Persians, the litter is absolutely unsuitable. The lightweight litter particles get stuck in their long fur and between their paws, and end up being spread all over the house.
We'll be switching back to a different litter.

CBÖP is gooood
CBÖP: I stumbled upon this like a virgin stumbling upon a child. I was just about to order the litter, which I finally deemed the best after a long search. Then someone gave me the tip. Being cautious as I am, especially because of my cat Bijou, also known as Joujou, who has such sensitive paws—and then there are the "big chunks." And on top of that, the "maintenance in the toilet"!?! Phew, the latter was quite intense!?! But right from the first try, it worked so well; since then, I’ve been buying CBÖP, and both of us are happy!!!

Cat's Best
Our cats and we are happy with this litter. When the litter box was still in the bathroom, we occasionally had issues with the litter – it smelled a bit "eco" and the clumps weren’t always great. Now the litter box is in a different room (a dedicated cat room), and everything works perfectly.

Cats love it, and it's affordable!
My two cats love this litter! It doesn’t smell of chemicals and clumps really well. Plus, it’s not as heavy as regular litter, and you can even dispose of it via the toilet or organic waste bin. Thanks to the subtle and natural wood scent, they immediately claimed the litter box with this litter. I hadn’t even finished filling it properly before the first "business" was done. It’s also incredibly economical. Where regular litter lasts only 2-3 weeks, this one lasts me 3-4 months (large bag). I’ve also recommended it to friends, and everyone is super happy with it. So, I can only recommend it!

The best litter ever
Been ordering it for years and absolutely love it – great suction power, no smell, clumps perfectly, and excellent value for money!

Great!
I’m very happy with the cat litter. Our cat took to it straight away, it’s super efficient, clumps well, and can conveniently be disposed of directly via the toilet. The price-performance ratio is spot on in my opinion. I also spotted the litter at Kaufland, though it was €1 more expensive (not a huge deal, but worth mentioning ;)). So, we’ll be sticking with it :)

Cat's Best!!
After being dissatisfied with several types of litter and my cat even starting to eat the clumping litter, I switched to this one.
And I’m thrilled. It doesn’t smell and is very economical. Unlike many cheap types of litter, you only need to completely refill the toilet very rarely. The clumping works really well.
I also like that the litter can be disposed of in the organic waste bin.

Finally satisfied
After a long odyssey through the jungle of cat litter, we’ve finally found the right one and are very satisfied.
The cat litter is very economical, odour-neutral, and unbeatable in terms of value for money.
However, I’m rather sceptical about disposing of it via the toilet, as it requires quite a bit of flushing water... which doesn’t sit well with my environmental conscience. So, off it goes into the organic waste bin.

Best litter "ever"
Simply brilliant!!! We have a little British Shorthair bear. Nothing sticks to the fur. I can only recommend this litter. Especially great because it can be disposed of via the toilet... just suuuuper!!

There's nothing better than Cat's Best Öko Plus.
We initially used Catsan, which ended up being thrown into the bin after three days. Despite regularly cleaning the litter box, it smelled awful. Then we were recommended Premiere with baby powder, but we still had to add some deodorising powder to it, and it still stank. Every morning, I felt like gagging when the smell from the litter box (which has a lid) hit my nose. Then I read about Cat's Best Öko, where everyone seemed satisfied, and I thought, "It can't get any worse, give it a try." So I did. A miracle – there was no smell anymore! Now we have three cats, and there’s no odour at all. It’s the best cat litter out there. Nothing else will ever go into our litter box again.
Additionally, it’s better for the cats. We have two Maine Coons and a Norwegian Forest cat, all with long, dense fur, and litter tends to stick to it. When they groom themselves, it’s not as bad if they accidentally swallow a bit of Cat's Best Öko Plus compared to litter made from silica. So, I can only recommend it to everyone!

The worst I've ever had.
Currently trying out a few different litters, but I’m really dissatisfied with this one – I’ve never had one this bad before. When combined with urine, it’s absolutely disgusting and hard to remove. The cats also spread the litter around the flat a bit, though the smell isn’t really an issue. Still, never again – in my opinion, not recommended.

It really works
We have 5 cats and have been switching litter brands over time. I was very sceptical about this litter at first. But it really works. With 5 cats and 2 litter boxes, we clean them twice a day, and even after weeks, there’s no smell. After the initial filling, I only had to top it up a little for the first time after 2 weeks.
Of course, it produces dust, but so do the others, and here it’s natural dust. We previously used Biocats Micro, and after 3 weeks, you could already tell the litter was going bad. With Cats Best, even after 5 weeks, there’s no sign of that. It’s also cheaper compared to some other litters. With Biocats, I needed 3 bags for 4 weeks, but here, one bag is enough.
Naturally, you’ll find some granules scattered around, but with other litters, the granules are finer, and they still end up lying around. We don’t have much of an issue with this, though, as we have a dedicated cat room with a tray in front of the litter box, and that works quite well.
If the quality stays the same, we won’t use anything else.
