els pet Orbitie Automatic Self-Cleaning Cat Litter Box, White

No stars should be an option. Chewy had great reviews for the Orbitie so we thought this would be a great solution for us. 3 days after its first use we get an error saying the waste box is full. We made sure the box was empty and cleaned the sensors, still the same error. We tried reaching out to the manufacturer but they will not contact us back. Upon researching this product on independent sites we discovered that many other purchasers have the exact same issue after a couple of uses. If ANY of those honest reviews had been listed on the chewy site we would not have invested in this product. I am requesting a full refund. Do not buy!!

I LOVE this for my elder cat who has litter box confusion. I have/had 4 total litter boxes for 12 yr cat and young litter trained Dutch bunny. NEVER had issues with my cat using the bunns box, until the past 4 months. I had been considering a self cleaning CAT litter box to see if it would help, but expense kept me from introducing ONE MORE LITTER BOX to the 6 I now own. THRILLED when Chewy offered the Orbitie Self Cleaning Litter Box for me to try. WELL packed, all pieces perfect. The Orbitie went right together using manual/quick start/Youtube I was expecting company so did not connect to wifi, left it near my cat's existing box for several days and forgot about it. After 4 days I was excited to get back to the Orbitie Self Cleaning Litter Box to do "training" only to find? Cat is already using it and had switched boxes by himself. Horatio is a BIG boy so he does spread litter but the included litter catch pad helps. TOTALLY worth continuing to use specific litter catch bags. The Orbitie is significant in size? BUT SO worth finding the space. I really like how creative the process works to sift and contain waste, no touching. I believe knowing what I know now? I would buy this Orbitie product.

Overall, I like this automatic self-cleaning litter box. Scooping a litter box daily (or multiple times a day) is no fun, so I was excited to try this. The assembly was easy and only took about 15-20 minutes. It comes with a mat to keep any litter that may be stuck to the cat’s paw from getting on the floor. The mat is small and slides on a tile floor; however, I simply put the front two legs of the machine on top of the mat to hold it in place and it works great. The opening for the cat entrance/exit looked a bit small, but both of my cats (one 13lbs and one 21lbs) were both able to get in and out just fine (not at the same time, of course). I initially put this litter box in the same room as their usual litter box and they quickly explored and started using the automatic box (within a couple hours). There is a companion app that is easy to download, install, and use. It’s convenient to see the status of the machine from my phone. I can also manually start a cleaning cycle from the app, if I would want to, but it’s not necessary because the machine automatically senses when a cat has gone potty and automatically cleans the litter. It makes very little noise and I’d never even know when it cycles unless I was standing next to it. The waste container slides in and out from under the machine and it’s quick and easy to close the waste bag, remove it, and replace with a new bag. I change the bag every 5-7 days which is way better than daily.
