Self-Cleaning Cat Litter Box, 75L Extra Large Open Automatic Cat Litter Box for Multi Cats, Integrated Safety Protection/APP Control/Odor Removal Smart Box with Mat & Liner

This has been a significant advancement for me. The convenience has been unparalleled. The setup was straightforward, the opening is ideal, the noise level is minimal and the user interface is intuitive. I have been using it for over a month now and there has been no odor whatsoever. Cleaning the machine was also effortless when necessary. Since I have only one cat, I replace the liner at least once a week. There has been no odor from my experience. I did reach out to customer service with some basic inquiries and they responded promptly due to the different time zones. Their exceptional customer service further enhanced the experience. This machine is undoubtedly worth the investment. I highly recommend it to everyone. You will need to determine the appropriate time for self-cleaning after your cat uses the litter box. For me, 20 minutes is optimal. However, it is crucial to ensure that you do not clean the litter less than 10 minutes after your cat uses it, as this will prevent the litter from clumping and result in messiness. Therefore, I recommend taking responsibility and monitoring the time interval after your cat uses the litter box for self-cleaning. As with any new product, patience is essential to determine what works best for you and your cat. My cat immediately embraced the litter box. There was no need for transition; she understood its purpose and handled her business effectively. I promptly removed her old litter box. If you seek a reliable and hassle-free litter box, this is the ideal solution. Even extended vacations, such as the one I recently took for over a week, can be enhanced by using this litter box. I express my gratitude to Meowant for creating such an exceptional product and providing exceptional customer service.

I have had a Litter Robot 3 for just over four years, and it has been relatively problem free (occasionally has faults, mostly due to me putting too much litter in). However, it is very tall and I have a kitty with bad hips and noticed him having difficulties getting in/out of the Litter Robot, even with the steps. So, when I saw an ad for the Meowant SC02, I was interested in giving it a try because it has a much lower entry. I finally got one and set it up, and my kitty immediately started using it. He can get in/out MUCH easier, to my relief. Some things I have noticed that I like better about the SC02 compared to the LR3: it is a bit smaller dimensionally; being a tiny bit narrower and much shorter so it may be a better choice if you need it to fit into a smaller space. It is FAR quieter; I can hear my LR3 cycling across the house but barely hear the SC02 cycling when I'm the same room. It also seems more sensitive to a cat's weight that the LR3, which sometimes did not register my kitty who is about 6.5 lbs and on occasion would start to cycle with him in it. The SC02 has no trouble sensing his weight so the risk of it cycling while occupied is significantly reduced. I like that the cycle time isn't limited to specific intervals, and there is more flexibility in programming. I also prefer changing the bin on the SC02 as I don't have to move the steps and pull a tray out from under it. The deodorizer seems to work better as well. I haven't been able to get it to calibrate properly, but it may because we have bare floors during a post flood remodel. Hopefully it will calibrate later on when the new floors are in. It is a bit odd that it doesn't have a power button and can only be power cycled by physically unplugging it. I have heard that the Litter Robot 4 offers the same features that the Meowant has over the LR3, but at more than twice the cost. This is a fairly reasonable price automatic litter box, and it is a safe design that doesn't have a closing mechanism that could trap or crush a cat. It also needs less litter than the LR3. I would highly suggest searching for the separate sifter with smaller holes as the one that comes with it has larger holes that allow waste bits to sneak past. All in all, highly recommend! I hope it lasts a while. Update: I added the above mentioned replacement sifter with the smaller holes as it seems more effective for small particle litter (I recommend leaving the original sifter in for larger format litter like pine), and also a snap on barrier on the bottom of the entrance because someone (and unknown one of my three kitties) peed out the opening more than once. These have definitely helped but the BIGGEST code cracked is how to keep it as clean as possible. Clumps were sticking to the inside of the barrel - just like they would do in my LR - and it was frustrating. So, I cleaned the surfaces really well, wiped down the interior with Armor All and then wiped off the excess, and switched to Arm & Hammer Hardball litter. Not only does the Hardball litter clump tightly, so far none has stuck to the inside of the barrel AND it's a super soft litter which will be more comfortable for little peets.

PROS: - Size (works for my cats and fits nicely in an unused closet). - Easy to clean (mostly, see cons below). - Weight data for my cats has helped indicate when one cat was under the weather. - Price is excellent compared to competitors, and for the functionality it is a great value! CONS: - Grate holes are a little large so some of the wetter pee clumps get broken up instead of scooped away. - Litter does get into the nooks and crannies of the lid, which in turn gets stuck in the springs for the lid latch, making the open/close function either sticky or hard to latch. I’ve been able to remove the outer plastic and clear things up, but it’s a bit laborious with ~20 tiny screws to contend with. I would love to see an updated version where the outer plastic is better sealed or easier to remove for cleaning!

The basket fills up in a couple of days, the "supposedly" smart box is not smart at all, because the mobile app is not available in Apple Store nor Google Play Store. Definitely not worth the money for a plastic box. Manufeacturer refuses to support it, seller rejects the return. THIS IS A SCAM
