ScoopFree Covered Automatic Self-Cleaning Cat Litter Box, Gray

This cat box works great. As soon as it was setup, our female Maine Coone got right in and used it. Its very quiet and the crystal litter works great at keeping the odor at bay. It's well worth the price and doesn't take up a lot of space. The only draw back I have is that the litter box itself is cardboard and not plastic or metal. The whole bottom of the box comes with a cover so you can dispose of it all at once. So, with that being said, you'll need to purchase the cardboard litter box with the crystals. Those are about $70.00 every three months when you can get an 8 pound bag of crystals for just under $15.00.

I'll be returning this as it is not self cleaning. The rake moves the crystals to the end and then stops. leaving a pile of you-know-what and not dumping it in the box. I've had self cleaning litter boxes in the past and they have had the final step of lifting the debris up and over a lip into a receptacle. This just rakes to the end and stops.

Welp, I bought one in July of 2021 and it worked perfectly! No smell, absorbed the liquid! Fantastic. I noticed that it was getting stuck on the numbers and decided to purchase another. This is the current new version. I can not stand it! You can smell the poop! Annnnd It doesn’t clean the wet well. Now I’m searching for the older model and ready to throw this one away! Very disappointed!

Unfortunately this thing did not work for us at all. I'm giving it one star for the silent operation and another for the low-key design. But that's pretty much it. The rest of our experience was awful. For the context, we have one senior cat and we used a covered litter box with pine litter before. Scooping the poop on demand and replacing the litter once a week worked for us. First of all, the crystal litter is horrible. It's messy, it spreads all over the house and crunches under my feet wherever I go. But the worst part is THE SMELL. Seriously I have no idea how it can possibly last for a week or even a day. After just a couple of uses the smell of the urine was totally unbearable. And the Unfortunately this thing did not work for us at all.

And the hood didn't help at all because there is a large opening on the front side and no door. My whole house stank of ammonia on the very first day. The rake didn't do a great job, too. The poop kept sticking to the rake and I had to disassemble the whole thing and clean it with an old toothbrush while wearing a pair of gloves. Never had to do anything like that before and it's definitely not something I expected from a "self-cleaning" device. The whole construction in general is flimsy and ridiculous. You cannot lift it up or easily move around because the litter box is not attached to the bottom tray. The advertised "self-cleaning" feature which makes this device worth $200 literally just means that the poop is being shoved under a free hanging piece of carton. Do not recommend. … more

If you have a kitty with ANY softness in their poop, this is NOT a good litter box. I was really hoping but I can’t say I’m 100% happy! It’s nice not having to scoop a litter box every day, until you have to clean poop off of the self cleaning box.

none of my 3 kitties will use this litter box! My Bengal got in it one time and watched it rake the litter...then none of them would use it. I believe it must be the transition to the crystal litter

Was very nervous about getting this, but it is truly life changing!! So great not to scoop everyday! I have 3 cats so bought 2 of them-so far so good. One lasted about 7-10 days (starts to stink), so hope to get 2 weeks out of 2 of them

I'm not into cats, but my daughter gave me the puppy dog eyes and I couldn't say no. I quickly got online and looked for self-cleaning litter boxes. Who wants to scoop cat poop every day...not me. I read the reviews and ultimately decided to give this litter box a try. Worst decision of my life. Now, I don't know if my cat is just gross or if all cats poop this much, but the comb/forks/whatever you want to call them is not doing the job. They are supposed to automatically move to shovel the poop into a hidden compartment and that works correctly. However, when it goes back to reset itself, it brings the poop with it... It squishes it into the combs and gets all over. Moral of the story, if you I'm not into cats, but my daughter gave me the puppy dog eyes and I couldn't say no.

Still going strong!! I’ve had up to two cats using this cat box and cleaned it about every 7 days. I Currently only have one kitty and we can get by over two weeks. Crystal litter is KEY- I’ve tried cheaper litters but the crystals work the best. Also purchased the plastic reusable tray and it wipes out easy. Don’t plan on switching and I’ve been a cat owner for 20 years.

This box is SO worth the investment, especially compared with the price of other self-cleaning litter boxes. Luckily, my cat was already using crystal litter, so he transitioned to this no problem. I have literally never noticed an odor, either from stool or that acrid ammonia smell from too much urine. I never even see the solid waste, and I just check inside periodically and change out the whole tray when the crystals start to look urine-y. No scooping, and no trying to hold open a trash bag while you pour the dirty litter into it. I work a lot of hours and struggle to keep up with all the things that need doing around the house, and taking litter box scooping off the daily task list has been This box is SO worth the investment, especially compared with the price of other self-cleaning litter boxes.
