The goods:
1) Ease of set-up: Pretty darn easy right out of the box. Maybe takes ten minutes for the Litter-Robot to be ready for your cat(s).
2) Ease of use: Load it up and go. Wait for the app to tell you it's time to empty.
3) Ease of cleaning: So, yes, you will not be scooping, but that does not mean there's no cleaning involved. However, a hard plastic bristle dish brush will do most of the work. I tend to wipe down the inside with a wet paper towel or rag every 2-3 weeks.
4) Easy to empty: So, yeah, open the drawer, pull out the bag, tie it off and throw it away. Simple, but there will usually be residual litter to clean up in the waste drawer.
5) Less stray litter: There will be residual kitty litter that shows up outside the box (even with the retainer built into the lip of the box). However, you definitely cut down on the spillage compared to normal boxes (even covered or elevated boxes).
6) Low cat transition time: Our cats used the new box within 10 minutes. This might not be your experience and I get that.
The others:
1) Pricey: Yeah!
2) There's still a smell (although not as much as a normal box): In the end, this is a toilet, so I get it. This is easily overcome with a small/cheap air purifier or some litter box deodorizer.
3) Proprietary waste bags: Because of the unique size of the waste drawer, you need a relatively large bag to line the tray. The proprietary bags are a little pricey, but, of course, work well. Probably could avoid using them by investing in some relatively cheap 10 gallon, scented trash bags.
4) Must use clumping litter: No sustainable or environmentally friendly litters for you (of course, you're also buying a big piece of mechanical plastic, so there's that).
5) Footprint is relatively large: Check the dimensions because this thing is big and can dominate a small room.
6) Might be a daily empty with three or more cats. We have two cats and empty about every other day, so for three or more cats you could be using quite a few waste bags, on a weekly basis.
Hope this is helpful for some of you! Let me know if you have any questions.
Unfortunately my experience was not that.
To start off with I have 3 cats. I work hard to keep an odor free and clean house and especially where the litter boxes are. I also have a dog who eats litter box treasures and so have to scoop multiple times a day.
I got this litter robot almost a year ago and had high hopes. Less scooping, cleaner litter, less tracking, less stink. Unfortunately it went downhill after the first use.
For $700 the plastic quality and parts are less than stellar. The whole point of having a machine like this is less work, not more. I found that it was necessary to baby this machine daily because it would have trouble calibrating even after all steps were taken to make sure it was balanced and clean. This would make it turn to half way and get stuck so my 3 cats had no where else to use the bathroom. Either the litter was too heavy, too light, or some other unexpected issue.
Over time the inner lining gets atrociously disgusting and I don’t understand the thinking of using such a material that seems to just make litter, pee, and #2 cling to it and never want to come off. Urine odors cling to every inch of this machine too, even with good upkeep. I tried multiple different kinds of clay litter and every single one had some kind of issue with the machine. Know that even “no dust” or low dust litter will still create dust because of the turning and sifting of the machine. It will coat your floors, walls, and machine in a fine powder dust. So if you have electronics near your robot be aware that you’ll be in need cleaning them more often.
I think the technical problems we continued to have were what made us give up on it. There is just no excuse for such an expensive product to have such continual failure. We had to buy an additional litter box because of the weekly failure we’ve had since the beginning. If I’m scooping again anyway, I might as transition back to the tried and true classic box.
All in all this machine might work well for a one cat home and for the lucky person who gets a unit that somehow works 98% of the time instead of 50%.
If you are a multiple cat home, my advice is to spend the money on large, stainless steel litter pans and try some of the new soy pellet litter or feline pine (if your cats will use it).
Maybe someday they will make an automatic litter box that actually works, until then I’m not wasting my time and energy on this one.
