For indoor cats with 3 trays to choose from.
I've used super cheap...false economy as melly, wet trays need changing almost every day.
I've used expensive...Worlds Best, and Cats Best Oko Plus. Both excellent no smell, clumping litters. But they are pricey and sometimes not available. (Damn brexit!)
So if anyone can recommend similar/ cheaper tried and tested, I'd be grateful.

This thread's a decade old but cat litter brands don't change that much, so you might glean something from it:

I've heard the Sainsbury's one recommended elsewhere, so may get a bag in my next online order. In the past, I never liked clumping, but I find I prefer it now.
The late Mr Z used to use the wood pellet ones from B&M. Very good at controlling odours and easy to manage. Not bought any since he went over the rainbow bridge but I don't remember it being expensive.
Just checked. 30 litres for £5.99
Have you tried Zooplus, tends to be cheaper than some High Street shops.

I've used a few different ones, but always come back to Catsan. It's more expensive than others I've tried but definitely better.
I've not used cat litter since my lot were kittens. (They're seven years old now and, thankfully, make use of the cat flap and go outside to wee and poo). At that time I just used the cheapest I could buy, simply because I was hard up. (It was Asda's own 'value' brand, which was incredibly dusty but seemed to do the job).

In earlier days though, when I had a few quid in the bank, I'd always opt for a clumping type, preferably with an anti-pong treatment added to it. However, as your post indicates, those types of cat litter usually don't come cheap. If I needed to buy the stuff these days, I'd probably give this a try. (Wood pellet-based products tend to get very good reviews for their clumping properties and also for their ability to lock in odours).

Don't know if it ie available in UK but I use Biosand available in 10kg bags and is brilliant. Also written on the bag Lettiera. On Google, being in Portugal, I do not get UK distributors. Very reasonable price. Before I found this I used Tidy Cat in plastic bottle.
I'd not refreshed the page for a while before posting above, so I didn't see Helewel's post at that point. It's interesting to note that she has also suggested wood pellets.

Further, I like B&M for pet supplies in general (although their stock control isn't great - they don't always have the stuff I want actually in stock). Here's a link to go with her post:

Like Patsy find Catsan the best by miles (and have tried several others).
Bob Martin's, from B&M. Just like Catsan but much cheaper.
