Dimmable compact fluorescent bulbs

Has anyone tried dimmable compact fluorescent bulbs. How well do the work
and do they smoothly dim? What brand name did you use?
Thanks,
Same as experience as TKM and Ken. I bought one Philips Marathon
Classic 65 CFL dimmable flood as a test because I wanted to replace
the 20 or so I have installed in can lights throughout the house. The
CFL dimmed fairly smooth until it cut out completely at about the last
third of the dimmers range. The lamps output was very cool as I
expected. I took it out after about 30 seconds. My opinion is that
they suck.
