ScoopFree Original Automatic Cat Litter Box

I just don't understand the negative evaluations on this litter box. I bought two boxes two years ago and they have been a blessing. They work just as described. The mechanism does it's job raking the poop into the receptacle automatically. I have 4 cats and I don't have to change the litter for two to three weeks. There are no odor issues as long as the litter is changed at the time is has to be changed. I do it every time the box counter shows 35 to 40 cycles. I recommend the metal rake be cleansed very well at every change of litter to make sure there is no dry poop on it. After two years of use, I've noticed the rake in one of the boxes has relaxed and not raking poop as efficiently. I am I just don't understand the negative evaluations on this litter box.

I have two kittens, both almost 6 months old now.. you know kittens pee A LOT and they LOVE to spread litter everywhere outside of the litter box. With the crystal litter, there is very little litter tracking compared to when I was using traditional litter. I tried this out when my kittens were about 10 weeks old. I started with one and purchased the reusable tray (not the cardboard ones bc I hate unnecessary waste.) Additionally, just 3 weeks ago, I got another. I decided my two kittens are getting bigger and need two litter boxes to share rather than one. Long story short, I love the scoop free! I only clean the trap out probably every 3-5 days and completely change the litter every 2-3 I have two kittens, both almost 6 months old now.. you know kittens pee A LOT and they LOVE to spread litter everywhere outside of the litter box.

I tried litter liners (the bags), but I found the pads to be easier to put onto the tray and my kittens are less likely to tear through them with their nails. … more

I just logged into my Chewy account and noticed it's been 2 1/2 years since I ordered the ScoopFree. It has been used continuously with no trouble at all. I was a bit worried it might malfunction, I bought it for my MIL who can't easily bend down to clean up/fix/troubleshoot a litter box. Her caregiver changes the inserts and sometimes does some extra wiping up, but otherwise it just works great.

My cat is older and needs a clean litter box or else she'll just go on the nice soft carpet. I'm pregnant so it's been hubby's job to keep up with cleaning the litter box. Needless to say he has been lacking and she has had accidents. We decided to splurge on this automatic cleaning box and so far we are very impressed! Pros With one cat this works exactly as described. She goes in, it takes away her poo 20 minutes later. She took to the new litter box with no fuss. We did sprinkle some of her old litter in with this litter as suggested. And we bought a good which we left off for now so she can adjust but other then that she started using it right away. Very little odor. When she My cat is older and needs a clean litter box or else she'll just go on the nice soft carpet. I'm pregnant so it's been hubby's job to keep up with cleaning the litter box.

Very little odor. When she poops it usually smells terrible! With this we hardly notice anything. It's only been about 5 days so far so I'll update this post if that changes. Cons This is pretty expensive. We got the original which serves our needs but it was still pretty pricey. For us, her not peeing on the carpet and not needing to scoop her box everyday is worth it! The litter doesn't magically stay in her box like it describes. She still gets it stuck on her feet and spreads it on the floor. It's not as much as other litter, but we still have to sweep/vacuum by her box occasionally. … more

For the most part, the only thing good about this thing is that it "scoops" up the poop. Other than that, it doesn't scoop or clump the urine. It also does not hide the smell of the urine. The litter itself is also expensive and Crystals leave a mess everywhere. I got the mat that goes with it and it's just not working out. I got this in February with two cats. I replace every one to two weeks and the older cat hates it. Did I mention, expensive?? I'm switching back to old method and going back to SLIDE litter. That legit did what it said and my cats loved it.

The usable dimensions inside the litter pan are barely big enough if you have a small cat. If you have medium or large cat they don't fit and end up with their butt hanging out and therefore pottying outside the litter box. The urine sits in the litter box and is not very good at odor control. The rake pushes the poop into a narrow holding area which again is not very good with odor control. I end up cleaning this litter box more than the tradition box due to smell and accidents. I am VERY disappointed in this litter box. Was a waste of money. The cats prefer the traditional larger litter box and use that instead.

Love ours! No smell, no litter all over the floor No lugging litter weekly, refills easy A little expensive, but worth it. All the time it takes each week ... Its worth it, get the cover... a friend got without... litter all over the floor.

This is expensive but worth the money. I have not had a cat for 13 years since my child was born. I finally got one and forgot how much a litter box smelled. He is only around 4 months old but growing like a weed as a is a siamese. He goes to the potty regularly and it was killing me with the smell and scooping littler every couple days. I had scent bars, scent pellets that were supposed to absorb the smell. That did not work. This litter box is more that worth the money and the litter beads mist trap all the odors, because we don't smell anything until it's time to change. It's about a month before we had to change this first time. I love it.

I recently had a kitty adopt me! I really enjoy the snuggles and playtime. However, I did not enjoy cleaning a litterbox twice a day or the smell! I did some research and found this self cleaning litterbox. I was worried that it wouldn't stay clean or that it would smell. I have had this box for a week and not only do I love it, but Mystic loves it too! So far it works great and it does not smell like a regular litterbox. I also purchased the reusable litter pan and the see through privacy cover. I am currently still using the cardboard disposable litter pan that came with the box. I like how it has a small box on the end that holds the solid waste. I am wondering why they didnt make a similar I recently had a kitty adopt me! I really enjoy the snuggles and playtime.

So I bought the "Deluxe" one off of amazon, the only difference in the little hood on top. The hood is a front entry way not a top entry way like an option here on Chewy. I have two 10# cats and it does exactly as it says it does. I have had this machine for a year now and it's been great keeping my toddler out of the box, none of the hardware has broken yet and changing the litter tray is super easy. The tray costs do tend to add up over time. For my two cats I have to change it every 17 days or they get disgruntled. There is no smell unless you fail to change the tray when indicated and you can even get the lavender scented crystal trays if you are into that kind of thing Chewy's multiple pack So I bought the "Deluxe" one off of amazon, the only difference in the little hood on top.
