PetSafe ScoopFree Crystal Smart Self-Cleaning Automatic Litter Box - Uncovered Motion-Sensing Cat Box with Integrated Health Counter & App - Includes 1 Disposable Crystal Litter Tray

I've been using this auto litter box for 2 weeks with 2 cats, and so far I am quite pleased. I have used the very expensive Litter Robot for about 5 years. I bought the newer Litter Robot Air 3 last year and it was nothing but a headache with its spinning ball constantly getting jammed. At $499, I was pretty unhappy that it was causing hassles. Worse yet, because of the jamming, 1 cat began pooping on the floor because the ball was upturned and she couldn't enter. I began looking for a non-spinning auto litter box for my 2 female cats quickly.2 weeks in and the cats (ages 5 and 6) both adapted to the crystal litter fairly quickly with no real issue. 1 cat was a little unhappy with the feeling of the crystals underfoot, but I provided no other alternative so she had no choice than to use it. I did sprinkle a few tablespons of the old litter on top of the crystals. What I read in the reviews and agree with is letting the poop/pee sit for 25 mins before raking. My box sits in the garage which the cats access via a cat door. Amazingly the crystals make the urine dry up quickly when left the recommended 25 mins before raking. The poop also dessicates to dry. No smell after 2 weeks with 2 cats AT ALL. The Litter Robot stunk to holy hell inside the ball with a heavy ammonia smell. I did not buy the lid cover for this ScoopFree unit for that very reason. I believe my cats prefer an open litter box.I am hopeful I will get several years of usage from this ScoopFree litter box. And its 2/3 cheaper than the Litter Robot! As per the directions, it appears I will be on target for the throw away tray to last 25 days as stated. My cats are not heavy with urination. i have not felt the need to buy one of the Forever Trays. IF i can get close to 1 month on a toss away tray, I prefer this convenience. Amazon offers a 3-pack for under $50, so i am ok with that. Easier to deal with than lugging clump litter.So far so good.

It's an expensive start up but it's worth it. It's incredibly easy setup and change. Our 16 yr old cat took to it within a day. We get about 2 weeks out of the crystals box, not the month advertised but, again, worth it (she tends to pee a lot in the same spot so that's a big factor in the 2 wks i think) We bought the 6 pack of boxes which worked out to about $15 a box. Looking at the difference with litter the smell is almost non existent (get close enough ans you may get a whiff), there is no dust, she tracks a couple little crystals but nothing like littee, and IT CLEANS ITSELF! No scooping is worth the cost. Plus, the amount of litter we were buying, scooping, changing, smelling etc ends up being more than the crystals. Our cat is asthmatic so even the low dust arm and hammer was still dusty and even buying in bulk at box stores I really do think it's not that much more for the crystals (after the startup of course).I read lots of reviews and think a lot depends on your cat, their habits, etc. But overall despite the very few shortcomings (2 wks vs a month, it has a decent size footprint) it is worth not scooping and smelling cat litter.

Edit-So I see the newest generation of this box and I am so upset I didn't see this anywhere for purchase when I bought the original. I feel like I bought a money pit with these trays and crystal litter and it doesn't even have the removable bin like the newest. This new one is everything I wanted but I didn't see it was available anywhere although the release date was July 17 and I bought mine July 29. Pretty bummed. I wish I had the opportunity to get the newest version when I made my purchase.Other than shedding hair, having to scoop a litter box is the only drawback to having a cat, in my opinion. I have a new kitten. I bought this litter box knowing I didn't want to scoop, obviously. I also have two older cats who will be coming back to live with me after a few years of travel nursing. I figured I needed to make the litter maintenance streamlined with an automated box. I was also hoping it would keep any smells down to zero.So far, this is my experience. First off, the litter trays are super expensive, nearly cost prohibitive. But if used properly, it is not so bad in comparison to the cost of clay litter for multiple cats, and you might as well get the reusable tray and buy the fresh step crystals. I have one kitten, and the only way I can avoid replacing a whole tray in less than a week is by removing the scooped poo from the stored compartment. I think this is how it should be used, and it just isn't clarified. Any other auto box is going to require you to remove the scooped poo, but the difference with this one is that it doesn't have a removable compartment you can dump. You have to remove the poo yourself. This is still better than scooping the old-fashioned way. Just grab gloves hold your nose, lift the storage compartment and hurry it into a bag. This will extend the life of the trays. That compartment fills and stinks in less than a week with a kitten. It has to have the clumps removed. Otherwise, you have to change the whole tray at least weekly, and this is just with a kitten. If you are going to replace the whole tray every time the compartment is full, then you might as well pay the 699 for one of those fancier contraptions that use the regular litter. By the time you pay for disposable litter trays on a weekly basis for the life of this box, you will have bought several of the high-priced fancy ones over and over. That compartment fills and stinks in less than a week with a kitten. It has to have the clumps removed.It does have some litter spill out of the compartment in the front end, and it sits. It is not a lot at all. Make sure you clean out from under there from time to time; it is a scant amount. I started putting a puppy pad under it so orders don't absorb into the floor. Not a big deal. The litter doesn't track at all. Have never used this crystal litter, but I love it.The kitten loves the box. At first, he freaked out by the fact it moved, but no problem with using it. When it's quiet and starts working 20 minutes after its last use, we forget we have it and think someone is in the house, and then we both remember it's just the box and go back to relaxing. It's pretty quiet, though. My boyfriend loves that it is a clean way to manage litter; he is not a fan of cats and worries it will smell, but he is warming up to the cat and to the whole idea with this box.

Se daño el rastrillo de la nada y es según la tarjeta. Terrible

From other reviews I’ve noticed people commenting on a few things, so here’s my take on those issues.Price - yup, definitely more expensive to run than traditional litterScent - smell freeeeeeeee, right until the last few poops. Then just as smelly as normal litter, but 95% of the time smell free and if I didn’t want the 5% I could change the tray earlierWalking on balls - yup, think tiny Lego, they’re annoying, but just as annoying as regular litterTimeline - my two guys are going through it faster than the ads claim, but I do not care!This litter is ridiculously easy to use, I never have to touch cat litter or wash the bottom, super clean and sooooooo much better for smell. I am obsessed with it and it’s worth the high price point for what I am getting.

J’étais très septique avec l’utilisation de la litière aux cristaux ???😂😜 Mais après 2 mois d’utilisation, j’adore ce produit qui offre moins d’entretien journalier…Je suis très technologique donc, j’ai le modèle connecté avec wifi.. qui offre la tenue des données jusqu’à 12 Mois pour le ratissage et une tenue de tout 💯👌Vraiment heureux de cet achat ! Dispendieux, non nécessaire mais une belle invention pour maintenir un hygiène de la litière presque parfaite! J’ai remplacé les bacs en carton jetables par un bac en stainless lavable 👍

Likes: super easy to use,way less odour from cats (2),feel at ease leaving the cats for a night or 2 knowing the litter is cleaned often. So far the cats have had zero accidents where as before they had minor ones.Cleaning is Fairly quiet and doesn’t scare the catsDelivery for new refills took longer than expected but I was able to scoop out poop to throw away for longer use of box.Dislikes: the price for the refills…. Not sure if it’s really sustainable financially. Box of 3 for $65.. vs my $12.99 litter bag that would last a couple months.Not eco friendly with lots of waste from refills…. The reusable tray is $70… seriously?! I tried other trays but they don’t fit.The pebbles/crystals end up all over and I step on them- gross and annoying. Same as regular litter but larger pieces. Advertised as cleaner but I somewhat disagree.At first the cats did not use it dispute me trying everything- mixing their old litter in the new box and new crystals in old litter, litters side by side. Finally removed the old box and they were fine using the new one.Size- it’s large. I cannot find a litter enclosure large enough to fit it so it’s hidden. My last box fit into a bench designed for litter boxes.Overall, would recommend for people who seriously hate cleaning the litter box or go away often. It has been very helpful this summer.

This thing is not helpful. It’s messy, heavy, and inconvenient. It rakes the dodos to one side, you have to lift the device off the tray that holds the litter.. and that can get messy and gross. Don’t forget to clean the rake, poop likes to get stuck in that. I threw this out- because reselling felt wrong as that’s how bad I feel this product is. I upgraded to an actual self cleaning litter box.. and I wish I had just bought it from the beginning and not wasted my time in this.
