Petsafe Self Cleaning Automatic Cat Litter Box, Uses Clumping, No Scooping, White, Grey

The product does not work and was a complete waste of money. Although assembled properly and the green light came on, that is the only thing the unit did. Nothing more and certainly not as described or shown in the video.So a week in, the unit smells and we had to manually scoop.If I had kept the box, it would be returned. The seller in good faith should refund.

I was hesitant after reading all the mixed reviews but decided to give it a try anyway and I am glad I did. It’s very easy to assemble, you just have to read the instructions. Be aware though as I’ve made the mistake of filling in too much litter and the light kept going red, the instructions say if that’s the case you need to contact customer service but all you have to do is make sure the litter doesn’t go above the line and you’re good to go.I’ve had the litter for almost a month now and I haven’t touched it since setting it up, it does exactly the job required. As advised I left the old litter next to the new one after setting up and my cat got used to the new one very quickly and without issue. I use regular clumping litter from Morrisons and it does the job very well, although I read the Sanicat is the best which I might try someday. It doesn’t make a lot of noise and it’s very practical overall. It is quite big though and definitely takes more space than your regular cat litter. It does rotations every 30 min and the rotations are actually quite hard to notice unless you look closely, which is why there is no risk for your furry baby to get hurt. But the only issue I would say is regarding the smell as there is no cover, your room might smell after the cat has used it until the litter does its rotation, but as it’s every 30 min it really isn’t a big issue in my opinion!I’ve had it for almost a month now and I am not disappointed, highly recommend to give it a try!

My first one didn’t work but the excellent customer service for pet safe were extremely helpful. They asked me to test a few things and sent me a replacement. I think an updated version.Works a dream. Can be a little noisy with a hum from the motor when it’s got some clump going up the conveyor. Overall very happy mostly through convenience for cleaning and the cat uses it all the time.

I would not buy this if I know what I do now. The litter clumps at the bottom of the The tray and does not get lifted into the bin. You have to spend time taking the whole tray off scooping it all out and washing it. Seems pointless having a scoop free litter box if you have to scoop it all out. Seems to be made of flimsy plastic and considering the amount of times you have to disassemble it, I can see it breaking very soon. I would not recommend buying this product for your cats.Update, it's now broken. Tryed contacting after sales but I'm not getting any response. Glad I payed using a credit card I'm going to get my money back

Despite having 4 cats this was bought for one that needed a fairly sterile environment after medical treatment. Otherwise I wouldn't have bought it at full price, because it's just very expensive for what is essentially some injection-moulded plastic, a motor, an LED, a microswitch and a power supply. Also, it's quite large - probably larger than you expect.My initial impression wasn't great either. The microswitch for the poop bucket is finicky and unless it registers the bucket being in properly then nothing turns. Note once you have the required green light it turns very, very slowly. So slowly that you have to watch for a little while to see that it is moving.And then it clogged. Multiple times.It could easily have got a 1 star review, but I remembered seeing someone recommend the world's best cat litter for it. That's a non-clay clumping litter. And ... that's what it needs.If you get non-clumping cat litter this just won't work properly as the wet littler will not be collected. If you get standard clumping cat litter then the clay will form a sticky layer at the bottom and gum up the mechanism, stopping it turning and risking burning out the motor. Get a clumping cat litter that doesn't have any clay or other powdery element and it does a good job. While that's a more expensive cat litter it's still much cheaper than the crystal trays of the other self-cleaning litter tray.Even with that I still have caveats. Because it takes a long time to rotate the poop will stay around for a while, so it's not suitable for all environments. Additionally, emptying the bowl is more hassle than a normal cat litter box because it's a) big, b) heavy once filled with cat litter, c) somewhat flexible, d) not really designed for tipping out he contents as some bits just push together, and e) you can't fit any kind of bag to the main tray. It's proved useful for our cat because she'd started (disgustingly) sitting in the litter tray when ill and the rotation incidentally stopped that, too, and it kept things cleaner for her, but I'd guess that most people would find it's actually no less hassle overall than using litter tray liners and just grabbing out the liner and putting in a new liner and litter. It's then hard to justify the price tag generally - if it was £50-60 I could recommend it, but at over £100 it's just expensive for what you get, however good it's been for our particular need.

This really helped with our 3 cats however due to urine the clumping litter gets stuck to the bottom meaning you have to scrape it off, so using non-clumping is best however this means that faeces especially particularly wet bowel movements may get stuck on the ladder. The idea IS good but the motor isnt the greatest and ive already had to replace this once in a year and you are only allowed 2 replacements. The motor is now overheating again and making a loud clicking so we will need to get a 2nd replacement.Someone mentioned that its quicker to just use a scooper and a litter box and I believe theyre right, changing this is indeed a huge faff which isnt present with simply changing a box however for 3 cats, changing twice a week does mean its not unsightly for ages like it would be with a box.Verdict: keep the money and save for one of the more expensive ones that seems to be built better
