Like everyone who has a cat, I wanted a simple and clean alternative to the standard cat litter pan. I looked around, read the reviews, and decided to buy. I do not regret it one bit! This is a fantastic little device that's SOOOO convenient I'm shocked. At first we were using Arm & Hammer litter, but it created a lot of dust when we rolled it over to collect waste, and have since switched to "Feline Pine," which works way better.
The downsides:
1: Not enough "floor space" (the grate system takes up half of the width of this thing).
2: The clips are pretty flimsy (though I haven't had any issues with them yet).
All in all though, a great product.

But now I really like it a lot. I used a standard clumping litter in 2 of our 3 boxes at home. At first I was having an issue with large urine clumps being stuck to the side so they wouldn't dump into the little tray. Took me a few days to figure out rolling it completely over and tapping it on the bottom in a few places would knock it loose and solve the problem. I usually have to roll it more than once to get it completely empty, but it still beats the heck out of the scooping.
In the 3rd I have the silica litter. That is really where this box shines. A quick roll over and back, dump the poo from the drawer and off you go! Unfortunately 2 stubborn cats cling to the clumping kind, so I will be tapping the bottom of the other 2 for sometime to come. But if your cat will switch to the silica kind, do it and get this box!

I got this litter box because of the raving reviews. I just needed another litter box for my 2 cats and thought I'd try it. I didn't realize how much I would enjoy NOT having to use a litter scooper until I got this. After rolling, I pull out the tray and dump it into a Diaper-genie (which everybody should have for cat litter! We don't even have kids but we have this for our 2 cats.)
The only problem I'm having is that sometimes the clumping litter sticks to the corners, so I'm going to try a different type of litter to see if that helps.
By the way, I couldn't figure out what size box to get because nobody gave any advice on these reviews, so here's my info: My 2 cats are 12.5lbs each and they fit in the regular size box fine. They don't seem bothered, but their heads usually stick outside of the box a little.
It's been about 3 weeks now, so here's more info: The sticking is not so much the litter, but the kitties' toilet habits. They like to pee at the corner on the side of the litter box that has the "vents" (see photo 2 of the pink box). When you turn the box 180-degrees clockwise the clean litter falls through the vents leaving only the clumps/solids to be caught by the pull-out tray. Their pee creates a giant clump with the vent in between it. You follow me? So i still have to clean the whole box every few days so I can remove the clumps that are left over on the "clean" side of the vent.

I ordered two of these in regular size (have 3 cats). My 14 yr old does not like it, but will use it in an emergency. He does not fit in it really well. The reviews stated this size worked well for large cats, but mine sometimes have their butts out the door and hit the floor.

Works good as long as you clean it a few times a day. If it gets dirty...it gets really dirty!
