Pretty average

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose this litter mainly because it’s unscented, but there is still a slight residual smell – not strong, but noticeable if you are sensitive to fragrances. The texture is fine and small-grained. It clumps well and easy to scoop, doesn’t produce a lot of dust, which is a plus, but it does track very easily. The box has a convenient handle, but it’s very heavy. I wish the litter was more lightweight– that would make it much easier to use. It does the job, but nothing stands out, you can find similar quality options that are cheaper. A decent, middle-of-the-road product.

No dust, tight clumps

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great light litter. It's not dusty or scented (which my cat prefers) but still covers odors really well. The clumps are tight and dont sink or cling to the bottom of the litter box. It does cling to my cats paws a little, but a litter mat fixes that easily

Fresh and clean without fragrance overload

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fresh Step Simply Unscented surprised me in the best way, it keeps the litter box under control without masking everything in heavy perfume. The clumps form quickly and stay solid, which makes cleanup fast and way less messy. I also liked that it doesn’t kick up a cloud of dust or leave paw prints all over the floor. It feels like a simple, honest litter that focuses on performance instead of trying to cover things up with scent

Loving the unscented version!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Thankful for Fresh Step for sending over this generously sized box of litter - the one thing that I hate buying most of all! Because handing money over in exchange for a box of clay for my cats to poop on just doesn’t sit right with me :) but, they need it! This is not my usual brand when it comes to litter, but while I’m happy with my current litter - I’ve been considering changing brands because I know that there are much cheaper options out there. While “cheaper” would be ideal, I don’t want a cheaper quality or anything that my babies aren’t happy with. They’ve been using this litter for a few days now, and so far they don’t seem to mind the change. They’ve been using the box with this litter in it as they usually do, with no hesitation. And while I’m not using it myself, I do notice some differences. My usual litter consists of very small rounded bits of clay, and this litter is more like shards of clay. It doesn’t seem to be uncomfortable to them, but I would think that the small round bits would feel better on their paws. With these larger pieces, it does seem like there’s less tracking which I like. Also, less dust so far! My usual litter ends up EVERYWHERE. This Fresh Step litter is pretty good, unless I run into any issues down the line then I might just end up switching over to Fresh Step!

What happened??

This has been our go-to litter for the past several years. As others have said here,something with the formula HAS changed. The perfume smell makes us sneeze, gives me headaches, causes flare ups of my chronic lung issues, AND makes my cats fur and feet smell 24/7. Their eyes have been goopy too. I wrote the company an email about 3 weeks ago. No response! As others here have said, the litter granules are smaller,darker, bustier and highly perfumed. I am going to have to look for another brand. My cats any my health are being compromised. Very disappointing. Also very frustrating that no one has replied to my email and that you say there have been no formula changes. That just can't be true. These reviews show otherwise.

What you would expect

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is what you would expect from any typical clay cat litter. There’s nothing that really makes this one stand out from the rest. It tracks and there’s dust just like any other. I do however like that it is fragrance free. It clumps well and gets the job done.

Highly recommend this cat litter

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] If you want a high performance litter that prioritizes cleanliness over perfume, this is it. It’s a reliable veterinarian recommended choice that keeps the house smelling like a home, not a litter box. The clay particles are a good weight for them to stay in the box and not have the cats track is on the way out of the box. It forms tight hard clumps quick which makes it easy when scooping a clumpy mess. You get a lot of litter for the value of your money. I highly recommend.

I always use fresh step litter. And read that the unscented is the best to use. My cat has no problems so far. I only gave it 4 stars because you have to oder it online. Delivery people work hard enough and lifting 42lbs.geez!!. Thanks Sam's club you are also 5$ cheaper so far. Please dont raise the price since i said that.

It works!!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works!!! 😅 My cat just used the box, as you can tell. 😆 It is really great on keeping the smell at bay, even right after they use the box. I love that this is unscented litter. I cant stand scented litters. This one works very well & scoops up quite easily.
