    Super light!!!

    Arm & Hammer
    Hardball Light Weight

    First of all, I'd like to thank Butterly and Arm & Hammer for sending me this generous gift! I have many cats, and therefore I have many litters! They all need to be cleaned constantly because my cats are picky and I can't stand it if I can smell a dirty litter!

    I love how light this is, it's so so easy for me to lift, following a shoulder dislocation, and it smells really nice actually, and I'm not a fan of the scented litters typically! It also feels really nice to me, very soft, like nice sand, but I usually use a clay based litter that are in larger pieces than this one, so we'll see if the cats like it.

    I can't tell if they like it or not, because it doesn't look like they're using it, because do see paw prints, but I see no waste 🤷‍♀️. It's probably because they're so used to their usual litter, and this is a totally different texture. But there's also no litter tracked out of the box onto the floor!

    So while it is on the pricier side, it's still a good option if I'm on my own, and need to pick some up!

    7/10

    It does what says! It works.

    After seeing the commercials I was so excited to try this new litter! We've been using a traditional litter that is really dusty and difficult to pick up - and our cat manages to track little bits of it everywhere. Not the best when we have dark furniture.
    Arm and Hammer Hardball has new technology that doesn't waste time clumping. As soon as 'the liquid' hits the litter it comes together. It really works. It locks it in immediately and keeps smells at bay. I have noticed a tremendous reduction in litter being tracked around the home. Cleaning the hardball litter is much less of a chore - even my teenager will clean the box now.

    Great smelling and effective

    The scent in this litter pleasantly subtle—not overpowering—and it actually helps keep the room smelling fresh. The clumping action is very good too; much more effective than the previous litter I was using. Makes cleanup quick and keeps the litter box cleaner for longer.

    Very lightweight

    Instantly I was surprised how lightweight this product was! I could easily lift and carry the box. The litter itself was pretty similar to other clumping litter I've used. My cats are very picky but didn't seem to mind this litter. It clumped well, odor was relatively controlled. A tad dusty but no worse than typical litter. Much more fine grain than other brands. Overall would recommend, especially if you are tired of lifting heavy litter around.

    Almost perfect

    I really liked this litter. Smelt nice, easy pour spout on box. No dust, clumped great. I only had one dislike…because it’s finer it got stuck to my cats paws and was tracked further than my previous litter

    Best clumping aroun!

    Great clumping litter. Cuts the pungent cat pee smell to nothing. Great for multi-cat households. The only downside is the price point. I will definitely keep a box around to use when I am expecting company. Otherwise I'll stick to my financially effective cat litter :)
    Cleaning is a breeze, though it does get stuck harder and needs more effort if left for half a day. But it is something I can live with, given the odor control and clumping ability.

    Does it's job!!

    This litter is extremely lightweight. The lightest I've ever used! My cats normally share the box but one of mine didn't like this litter at all whereas the other one seemed to really like it! I really liked that it was virtually mess free and doesn't stick to the cats too much when they leave the litter box. It's lasting longer than expected and I notice that Im wasting less product. I will buy this again for sure.

    Remains Fresh and Shrinks For Less Frequent Change

    I’ve tried quite a few litters over the years, and Arm & Hammer Hardball Clumping Litter is definitely one of the better performers when it comes to clumping and odor control. The "Hardball" name isn’t just for show — the clumps form quickly and stay together, which makes scooping a breeze. It really cuts down on waste since you’re not dealing with wet clay breaking apart in the scoop.

    One thing I love is that it’s super lightweight. Lugging heavy containers is no fun, so this was a big plus. Also, it's low dust, which is great for my cat (and for me — no clouds of dust every time I pour it in the box).

    It does track a bit. The fine texture is soft on the paws, but that also means I’m sweeping litter off the floor more often than I’d like.

    All in all, it’s a great litter with strong clumping and odor control.

    Nice litter

    It's a nice litter, and really is lightweight. It has a scent to it but not overly powerful. I'm curious to see how long the box will last. Overall I'm happy with it.

    Great brand of kitty litter and much lighter

    I did enjoy testing out this kitty litter. As someone with chronic pain simple tasks can be difficult and painful and this litter being significantly lighter made it easier for me. My cat was a little hesitant at first but has used it no problem now.
    The only downside I've found to this kitty litter is the price I do wish it was cheaper.
