SmileDirectClub: anyone try it?

I'm seeing a lot of ads for SmileDirectClub, and it's so much cheaper than going the braces route. Have any of you tried it?
They also seem to take insurance, give your initial money back if your teeth are too messed up to fix (mine might very well be), and accept FSA dough. All without going to creepy appointments every so often.
I've been wearing Warby Parker glasses for years, so I know that this kinda thing can work. But I'm curious: is this a scam? Have any of you tried it successfully? Failed miserably?
Thanks in advance!

SmileDirectClub can't fix the same stuff traditional braces or Invisalign can. For example, many people with Invisalign need to have attachments (basically little bumps) put on their teeth to help the trays pull the teeth to the correct position. Most patients also require IPR (filing between teeth) to allow the teeth to turn and move more freely.
