Neakasa M1 Open-Top Self Cleaning Cat Litter Box, Automatic Cat Litter Box with APP Control, Odor-Free Waste Disposal Includes Trash Bags

Where has this been all my life?!?
I have used every self cleaning litter box out there – the common manual ones where you have a sifting tray or you roll the litter box over to not so common which looked like some kind of dump truck system you had to crank. I’ve also used all the electric ones – the rakes, the rollers, the washing litter – there isn’t a system I haven’t tried. If I wanted to depress myself I’d take a picture of the pile of money sitting in my garage in self cleaning cat box form. So many tried, so many failed. Either they were too complex, they made a huge mess, the smell was awful, they were a pain to empty, they were a pain to clean, just stopped working, they took up massive amounts of space, or the cats refused to use them. Or some combination of all of the above.But I am an inherently lazy person who loves cats and a good gadget, so when I saw this new self-cleaning box I was overcome with a Gollum like desire to own one. This would surely be the self-cleaning cat box of my dreams.Shockingly, it almost is. You still have to empty a drawer once a week or so – the poop doesn’t magically disappear – but in the month I’ve owned it, I’ve been more than pleased with the purchase.It’s very easy to set up. You just put the legs on. They’ve done proper design – you can only insert the posts in the correct place.You download the app and follow the very clear directions for pairing the box with your phone. You add your cats in the app by weight – the box will do an exact weight later, so you can just take a guess at the moment. And that’s it.There’s tons of options for set up on the box – you can turn the sound on or off, there’s a kitten mode, you can set up the time between use and clean or if you just want it to run at certain times, and a quiet time where it won’t run at all.My cats were a tad suspicious of the box that moved on its own as you can see from the picture. I didn’t run it on auto at first. I’d track when they used it – you can tell when the cats were just looking in the box and when one actually got in. And based on the length of time in the box, you could also tell if the used it or were just checking it out. Then I ran it only when I was in the room too. After about a week I started using the app to run it when I was in the next room. So the cats could hear it start and go check and see I wasn’t concerned. After a couple days of that, I put it on auto. Because the app allowed me to see they were using the box like normal, I didn’t have to worry they’d boycotted the box and found a corner in a closet.The white cat is still highly suspicious and convinced there’s a critter in there she might need to kill (she’s a mighty indoor only hunter) so she’ll check around the box while it’s running. When she tries to look in the box during the cycle, it stops and waits until she’s finished examining everything and then will continue after she’s been clear 10 seconds. It also moves very slowly and in short stages which alleviates any concern that one of them might get caught somehow.Because of the white cat’s abiding suspicion, she often digs in the litter to see if there’s something hiding in there after the cycle runs, pulling litter out of the box. But a handy mat was included with the box that allows the litter to fall into it and you can just dump it back into the box without worrying about tracking it everywhere.I can also tell by looking at the app that she will only use the box when there is light in the bathroom, so I’ve started leaving the bathroom light on for her and get her a little night light by the box. It’s really nice to be able to track things like that. The app will also tell you when the waste bin is full. With two cats that’s about every 5-6 days. The drawer is easy to access and the bags are easy to replace. You just want to make sure you don’t trap air under the bag or the box might register the bin full before it is.It doesn’t take up much more space than a regular box and you can put it really close to the wall.There are only two issues I have with the box. One is the height. My striped cat has stumpy legs and needs a small step to get in the box. The step you can buy from them is crazy expensive for what it is. The other is the bags provided for the bin don’t shut fully after they’re full. I have to put the full bin bag in another small trash bag so I can tie it closed to keep the smell down. But neither issue is overly onerous to deal with, so I’m not put out. Certainly not a big deal compared to all the positives.Is it expensive? Yes. I got mine during Prime Days and there was a good discount, but it’s still pricy. However, it totally delivers on keeping the litter box clean and the cats happy while being very easy to use. I’d make the purchase again in a heartbeat.

Arrived yesterday.. I was very skeptical about electronic litter boxes. This is a game changer when you have cats or kittens. My kitten loves it. I love it. No smell, no messy clean ups. It is expensive but it should do my kitten his lifetime.Very easy to put together. Very easy to set up. The noise level you really don’t notice.As far as cleaning the litter, it does an excellent job. I looked today as it was used three times and I am not losing a lot of litter on the cleanups. Very satisfied customer and kitten.

Ik gebruik deze kattenbak nu een paar maanden en ben zeer tevreden. Mijn grotere kater wilde niet in een ander gesloten (en goedkoper) model, met de open bovenkant van deze bak is dat geen issue. Soms ligt hij zelfs in het schone grind te slapen.De kwaliteit van de Neakasa is een stuk beter, makkelijker schoon te maken en te vullen in vergelijking met de andere gesloten automatische kattenbak die ik heb. De oude staat er nog wel maar de katten gebruiken hem niet meerEen paar voordelen die ik heb ervaren:Van 3 bakken naar 1: Met twee katten die niet naar dezelfde bak wilden (en dan een protestplas naast de bak gingen doen, ondanks het dagelijkse schoonmaken) is dit een hele opluchting. Ze willen nu _eindelijk_ dezelfde bak gebruiken.Minder kattenbakvulling: Het gebruik van grind is drastisch verminderd, wat scheelt in kosten en gesjouw.Gebruiksgemak: Het legen en vervangen van de opvangzak gaat makkelijk en soepel. En geen vieze lucht meer waar ik steeds met mijn neus boven moet hangen. Schoonmaken is ook eenvoudiger omdat er geen vastgeplakte resten in de bak zitten.App: Hoewel de app leuk en stabiel is, zie ik het meer als een gimmick. De gebruiksstatistieken zijn niet heel nuttig als je katten ongeveer even zwaar zijn.Als hij vandaag stuk zou gaan, zou ik morgen meteen een nieuwe kopen.

La litière automatique à couvercle ouvert est un dispositif moderne qui se démarque vraiment.Elle promet de simplifier la gestion des besoins de vos chats et facilite l’entretient de celle-ci ! Le sac placé en dessous de la litière permet une isolation complète des odeurs ainsi qu’une propreté irréprochable. Nous en sommes ravis.Elle est silencieuse et retourne le sable sur les excréments de vos chats si ils ne l’ont pas fait pour garantir une seconde fois la propreté de la litière lors du passage des excréments sur la partie plastique de la litière jusqu’au sac.Le tapis nid d’abeille est d’une grande utilité également. Chez nous il marche très bien, nos 3 chats passent dessus, capturant les petits grains de litière.Je vous la conseille !!
