    That poor cat wasn't getting his litterbox cleaned-out every day before the machine? He must be really happy about the improved quality of life now.

    Two huge problems here. 1. You buy almost everything on Amazon and yet there are probably a million people in North America that would not shop through Amazon if they were the last company in the world. 2. This thing costs $800 USD. This device is probably made in China therefore you could probably buy it in China for $50 or less. Would I buy an automated cat litter box - NO.

      On sale for $339. But yeah. Just think of the utility cost. Your time is worth how much? $25/hour? How long would this $339 device take to pay you back? I'll bet my wife spends an hour month taking care of cat litter. That's 339/25= 13 1/2 months to pay back and this thing will last years. It's worth every penny.

      Your cat is likely not drinking enough water. Most people put a bowl of water right next to the food just like it is done for dogs. It has been found that cats don't like to drink next to their food. I highly recommend placing a couple of additional bowls out in various spots and see if he doesn't start drinking and peeing more. I hope your cats live long and happy lives.

    My mother got one of those. Using the company's own bags for litter makes it unable to close due to the plastic bunching up and I noticed you were using different bags. Any chance you could tell me what they are? Thank you.

    • @mcacorn
      @mcacorn 4 місяці тому +1

      Wrap the bag around the bin and that will solve the bunching problem. Pay particular attention to the sides of the bin because the door won't shut closely if the bag is all loosy-goosy. I've found the bag stays in place real well if I wrap it around and under the bin as it's quite large.

    Do you mind doing a video on the app for this liter box I bought it and for some reason it’s a little confusing to me. How do I schedule it to clean every day or does it just clean by itself without me cleaning it . Also I have multiple cats and I can’t seem to tell the difference between them on the app.

    • @mcacorn

      The robot cleans automatically after your cat uses it. The set timer is 20 minutes after use, but you can significantly shorten the time manually.

    Whenever my parents agreed that I could get a "new" pet, it was always with the expectation that the care, all of that pets needs were put on my chores list.
    This included cleaning up the cats poo and urine. Your life, your house, your rules, and your daughter.
    Responsibility is a key lesson for kids to learn. Every kid, no matter how busy, has 10 - 15 minutes to clean a cat box every day. Excuses.

    I ordered the ELS litter box two months ago. When I got it my cat really liked it however a week later the thing stopped working. Talked to Amazon and they replaced it. Got new ELS and as soon as I opened it the bar that holds the rake was broken. Returned this one and said never again. So last week I ordered Litter Robot 3 and so far everything is working great even the app is great. ELS is made in China and the Litter Robot is made in the USA enough said!

    I've had this for about 2 weeks now. I have 3 cats so the waste bag gets filled quickly. I do place it on sleep mode from about 10-7a. I believe when its sleeping, it will not rake the litter. My cats are pretty much sleep during those hours so very minimum to no activity so I'm hoping that will prolong the life of this. They do still track quite a bit around the litter dome.
    They took instantly to the litter. It's as if they couldn't wait to use it. It may be time for a deep cleaning.
    I have a couple regular boxes around my home. Those have the pine/wood pellets which works well for smell but once broken down, the saw dust is a pain when cleaning. So now trying out Pretty Litter. So far, all is well. I hope it stays that way.

    Well, my corn litter was doing great, neat chunk and odorless. Now this, I had to sip through the litter for leftover small pieces of 💩, because the rake seemed to chop them. With corn litter, I just need to pick up 💩 and tossed right away, no odor. Now, the machine stinks and I have to learn how to disemable. I didnt really need to clean the litter box with corn litter for a while, and I used uv lamp. What was I thinking?? now I have to clean this machine, worse.

      I have two robots and have not had to manually clean the robot, but for my cat who spray pees (😢) at the back. Our traditional litter boxes had been rigged up plastic bins that were large with real high walls (or else!!). I do keep an eye out for trouble and haven't had any❣️ I'm really pleased, and I know my cats are, too.

    The UV light has to be a gimmick. There are UV water sterilizers for camping/emergencies. You have to have water that doesn't have a bunch of particles in it or the little bad guys will be shielded by the dirt particles in the water and it won't kill them. In a litter box?!?! Ya, that's not going to have any effect past what the light directly shines on.

    Question? Have you updated this video after having it a few months? Mine started acting up right after the 90, good thing a have the warranty. Believe me, I keep it clean. Every other day I manually scoop the litter just in case. Those little rail guards in the inside do not like to stay in place. First thing to go out was the ring light when the I’ve light comes on. There are other issues but that’s another story. I’m sorry but I can’t recommend this litter box. Especially for $400. Think I’m returning it. More trouble than a regular litter box.
