CatGenie A.I. Self-Cleaning, Fully-Flushing, Automatic Cat Litter Box

It works as advertised. Fully automated and the Sami solution leaves the area with a pleasant smell. We have been free from scooping and any litter box odors. Fits easily into our laundry room closet. Set up and use instruction manuals are well done and also easily accessible online.

I expected a lot more from a $450+ litter box. It was flimsy, loud, messy and took forever for each wash/dry cycle. The scoop has ridges on it to shake off the plastic pellets when cleaning put they go everywhere. I even had them in my tub. They track really bad too. When it cleans its so loud. It also flushes so many of the plastic pellets. I would say at least a tablespoon a day. I think this could have been a great item but the execution just wasn't there. I wouldn't be mad if it was just $100 or less but he price for what you get is ridiculous, not to mention all of the tiny plastics that gets flushed into the sewer.

I have had the cat genie it will be a week tomorrow. I am so happy I purchased it. I have four cats. 2 of them are already using it totally. And the other two are starting to warm up to it. With a little more time, I plan on getting rid of the second litter box and only use the cat genie. It definitely a lot cleaner than the automatic Ilitter box that I have, where everything goes in a bag. But the smell lingers. I set the cat genie up and haven’t had to do anything. I plan on doing a monthly cleaning to ensure it lasts. ButI love it. It’s cleaner, smells better and it’s pretty much takes care of itself. Other than addinglitter or solution and the soak. I wanted to update this, because I broke the drain hook helping my daughter use the bathroom. Because I have our cat genie running into our toilet. So I called cat genie customer service and they are sending us a new drain hook. They were very nice and helpful with our needs, she even suggested risers for our toilet seat to help from breaking the new one when it gets here. And also let us know when our warranty would expire. I am very grateful to them. And that’s simply another reason why I will not use anything other than cat genie unless they come out with a more amazing one. I am so happy. I went from three automatic litter boxes to one cat genie and my house has lost a bad odor caused by the automatic boxes. I recommend anyone who has indoor cats give this a try, they will be happy they did.

The CATGENIE is by far the best cat litter box I’ve ever owned. As someone older with back problems, having a truly automated cat toilet has been life-changing. It lasted me well over four years before I needed to replace it for the first time, which says a lot about its durability and reliability. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a hassle-free solution, and I truly hope they never change this product.

After the cats finally got warmed up to it, it’s been one of the best products I have purchased in my adult life. It’s app works perfectly and I have not had an issue like people have whined about (I almost guarantee they have a poorly setup wifi solutions using their ISP rental modem/router combos and no dedicated router). I push a button it cleans, I use the app it cleans, the only issue is hiding the tubes for the water and exhaust tube into the toilet. I had 9 cats in the house fostering and it’s been kicking butt. I am down to my personal 3 cats again and it’s been a blessing I’ve completely removed my regular clay litter boxes (keeping them in storage in case of emergency) but I’m going to be buying another one to go into my laundry room because my cats deserve two places to poop/pee. Finally with all that being said for smaller homes I don’t know if this is the most practical solution because the bathroom is more or less taken over by the tubes and power cables and I have 5 total bathrooms so sacrificing one wasn’t an issue, also eventually there will be a hidden alcove for the actual genie which also isn’t practical for most so take that with a grain of salt everyone’s situation is different.Tl;drPros: 1. Easy af for everything I don’t even think about litter anymore.2. Haven’t had a singular app or connection issue I can even flush it while I’m at work and flush the toilet when I get home3. Smells nice I haven’t smelled any urine and the fresh scent is nice but some cats might be sensitive to it.Cons: 1. Pricy but honestly it’s not really because paying $20 every other week for litter over a year is the exact same price when the granules are mostly permanent other than when it gets kicked out of the box or flushed2. The cartridge for scent is required to operate I wish it could just flush without spraying the sanitizer solution every single time3. Not much other than getting the cats warmed up took some time and placing turds from the regular litter box in the genie to promote them to use it wasn’t a fun time4. Large (kinda) and not for every homeMessage to creators if they even read this: I encourage a mode that lets us sanitize once a day instead of every cycle while it does regular flushes throughout the day allow it to be clean and regularly sanitized without blasting through the sanitizer solution. (I’ve been using manual mode for this reason and absolutely will not put it on a regular cycle like I would like to)Other non cleaning cycles would also be awesome, just a cycle to lay the litter flat again so it’s not lopsided for a second cat to push litter out of the genie would be welcome because I want to save as many granules as I don’t like being wasteful idk I feel like that’s not entirely wild of a concept for a future model and semi easy applicationIf you do consider those and make a new model/update them send me free stuff ;) I’m joking but I would love to know if this was considered or not possible because it was already thought of by smarter people than myself!

DO NOT BUY CAT GENIE AI!!! You will be forced to purchase the proprietary sani-solution OR THE UNIT WILL NOT WORK! You will have to MANUALLY remove the pee and poop in the litter when this happens.I had to carry my entire unit (full of liquids/solids) to my yard in order to clean this thing. This is the second Cat Genie I have purchased. Both had problems with clogs and had to be cleaned often. I hope you understand this enough that you don't spend hundreds of dollar only to be stuck spending $25 of sani-solution when I could have made it for $0.50.

Initially had trouble getting it to consistently completed a cycle despite verifying proper installation. After pulling the drain hose out to ist full extension and just pushing the extra length up behind it, it now operates smoothly for most cycles. Additionally, the cat now often refuses to use it since it malfunctions during the cleaning cycle, filling with water and then not draining until reset. Overall, feels like a huge waste of money
