Frisco Hooded Cat Litter Box, Large 20-in

No instructions on how to get the top (reason you buy this litter box) the top to adhere to the bottom. One person said you have to push down the cheap plastic to click into the other plastic grooves. You try to push them together and the cheap plastic breaks off. This was just delivered to my home one hour ago and already the top slides off if the cat enters the door. I expected way more from Frisco products and cannot return because I did dump litter right in it. I intend to dump into the trash shortly.

Took me longer than it should have to figure out how to attach the top. Once you put the top on you have to pull the clip up so the ridge will go under the bottom lip. Seems pretty secure, but also easy to take off & put on again. Same size as a standard box, but taller, more rounded, and hooded. Can't speak on durability as I just got it, but it looks nice & fits in a small space.

Attaching the cover is difficult due to the design of the 'closures' on either side. After several frustrating tries I had to break one to get the lid on. The interior of the box has 2 design indentations on the back where cleaning out wet litter requires using a small spoon to clean it. I'm making the best of it for now.

First of all the clips on the side that hold the lid to the bottom are not very strong. I would not trust carrying by handle when full of litter. One of the clips broke off after about a month and cut my husband's thumb very deeply. Shortly after that, the bottom tray somehow developed a hole and a crack in the side. The only good thing about this is the size is not too big and it is covered. But now unable to use so purchased a different style, where the cat enters from top. Love it and way less litter tracking!

I see people who are clearly mentally challenged complaining about the top being hard to put on. You lift up the sides and it ticks right under. It’s not hard in the slightest. I never knew humans could be so unintelligent.

This is overall a good litter box. I saw some mention that the top does not go on well and the box can’t be moved by the handle when it’s full. That isn’t true. When the top is installed correctly it can in fact be picked up. It’s however an odd design and you have to push the lip of the handle under the lip of the lower box for a secure fit. If you can’t pick yours up it’s because the top is not secured correctly. The reason it lost a star is because I do not like the rounded design of the bottom. It isn’t a flat surface with edges and I find it harder to clean. I would say if you have more than one cat you definitely need another box because they will not fit in together.

The box looks nice however and the cats took to it easily. The door is nice and swings back and forth freely.(again it has to be installed correctly.) Definitely helped with smell containment. … more

We were wanting a covered cat box for our 2 cats to fit in a certain space. The width is perfect but neither of our 2 cats are comfortable as the hood is not high enough after adding the litter. They urinate on the sides and it is hard to release when cleaning, I even scoop twice daily and it still is messy. It is also difficult to snap together on the sides and can be knocked off and fall forward blocking the entry.

litter box is good size but for some reason it does not lock down after you put it together dont know if size bottom or top is little off on when they made it . but it works for me all the same

We just adopted two kittens a week ago. At first we used just the litter pan to get them adjusted. Tonight my husband tried to put the lids on. The first one snapped at the connection point/latch. The second one also snapped and with very minimal pressure as he was trying to attach it, it shattered into pieces. Again-- both are only a week old and the first time we even tried to attach the tops.

We’ve bought a few of these, but will be trying a new brand next time. The arms holding the cat flap that blocks the opening are easily broken by just one aggressive poop zoomie. So now I have a lid with an open entrance that lets the room reek like cat turds.
