Customer Ratings & Reviews

The Whisker Litter-Robot 4 ... what a marvel! Setup was easy - after finally getting it out of the well-packaged box (with only one set of hands this was a slight challenge). The Quick Start User Guide was helpful. However, if you scan the QR code, there is an informative video you can watch, which explains key details step-by-step. And yes, there is an app, and it is awesome! My Whisker Litter-Robot 4 came with the 'core accessories bundle' which included a pouch of OdorTrap Packs that you place inside the waste litter drawer, cleaner wipes for the inside and outside of the robot, a roll of waste drawer liner bags, along with the litter trap mat. The mat is really heavy duty, and seems to do a good job of trapping what little bit of kitty litter that gets tracked out by my cats. I was quite impressed by that. I would also suggest dust-free litter, cause it clumps well. The Litter-Robot is not as heavy as it looks. The controls are easy to use and to understand. Even connecting it to the app on my phone was easy; once my WiFi connection (user error) was fixed and the Litter-Robot could fully connect. The app itself is fun to use. In the app you can upload a picture and create a profile for each of your feline friends. You can also shop for additional supplies. The Whisker app will let you know if the litter level is "Optimal," how full the waste drawer is, and gives you an overview of past cleaning cycles. Plus, the app records the weight of your cat whenever they use it. I enjoy checking the 'Recent Activity History' to see how often my cats use the "robot litter box." Yes, the Whisker Litter-Robot makes a sound when scooping, but it really is "whisper quiet." My cats were initially sceptical, but at least the younger one adapted rather quickly and is using it frequently. The robot is roomy enough for small to medium cats - my younger cat weighs just under 3 lbs, and my older cat is slightly bigger but has not used it yet (as far as I know), therefore I am uncertain about his weight. Once my cat does her business, the Robot goes through its cleaning cycle after 7 minutes; which is something you can adjust in the app from 3-30 minutes. The used litter gets scooped and deposited underneath in the drawer for easy clean-up as it's collected in disposable liners (or you can use regular trash bags of appropriate size to fit). All in all, I am very pleased with this Whisker Litter-Robot 4, and if it was not so costly, I would get another one.

The Litter-Robot has been a game-changer for our three cat household! I was nervous that my senior cats may take some time to adapt, but within 30 minutes of setting it up, my oldest girl (and the one I was most worried about) hopped right in, used it, and went on her way. It's easy to set-up, clean, and change out each week. We've been able to cut back significantly on litter and even when the waste drawer is full, our house still doesn't smell. The Litter Robot also makes traveling so much easier for our pet sitters, since they don't have to worry about dealing with the litter box. We're already planning to get a second one in the coming months to replace our home's second litter box. I recently had an issue where the Robot disconnected from the Whisker app and nothing I did could get it back online. It did continue to cycle as expected, but when opening the app, it tried to get me to set-up a new Robot. I even tried following these steps (which included Robot set-up and adding all my cat profiles back) but instead of completing set-up, it would take me back to the first step. I tried everything in the manual and steps I found online with no luck before reaching out to support. Overnight, it reconnected itself and was working normally. Support got back to me to, but gave me all the same steps that were in the manual, which was annoying since I had explained they didn't work. Not that big of a deal since it fixed itself, but this seems like something that should be resolvable vs the wait and see approach.

Dents, scratches, and pee in the main chamber. Makes me wonder how many products are being sold as new when they’re actually used.

This is my second unit. We needed a cat box for both stories of our home. Since this notifies us when it is full, we don’t have to pay any attention to it (WiFi connection). Also saves money on litter since only the litter sticking to the waste is lost. I figure a 5 year break even point for both boxes. No dumping a whole cat box just to remove the smell. No smell. No dust. Just a small bag to lift out of the sealed collection box. Also, after each cycle, a smooth surface for the cat to admire. I put a camera on the upstairs box to match the cat weight to the cat and discovered that one cat will use the box, then sit and watch it rotate to dump the waste. Cat TV.

I struggled with this for a while believing there was no way I would spend this much money on a litter box. However, every other cheaper model from other companies have mixed reviews. The only bad thing I can say about this one is that it may require being reconnected every so often but that is probably an issue with my router and wi-fi. It works, my two cats took to it almost immediately and it makes clean up a breeze. Wonderful. Worth every penny.

I can’t say enough good things about the Litter-Robot 4! It has completely changed the way I take care of my cats. No more scooping, no more smell, and my house feels fresher and cleaner than ever. The waste drawer is easy to empty, the design is sleek, and it’s surprisingly quiet when cycling. My cats took to it quickly, and now I don’t even have to think twice about their litter box—it’s always fresh and ready. The app is a great bonus too, letting me keep track of their habits and know exactly when the drawer needs changing. Yes, it’s an investment, but for the convenience, cleanliness, and peace of mind, it’s 100% worth it. I honestly can’t imagine going back to a regular litter box. If you’re on the fence—just do it. You and your cats will be so much happier!

Overall does what it says. I have two Maine Coon kittens that are almost 5 months old. The larger one, the male, uses it no problem. And it’s large enough it will be just fine as he grows. The only problem I have had so far is at times the urine clumps don’t always dump. They stay stuck to the liner and need to be knocked loose with a scoop. As for odor. There is no order other than the immediate after use. Once it cycles after the cat has jumped out there are no smells. Ease of emptying the used litter clumps is as simple as it shows. Pull open, grab bag, and throw out. I do think however that the price is super expensive for it. Will determine with time if it was worth it. Depending on how long it last.

From everything we read, this is the absolute best robot litter device on the market, and after 3 weeks of use I will admit that this is a pretty awesome product. To be clear, this is not a "set it and forget it" kind of thing. There's still some weekly attention to general cleaning and overall device hygiene that needs to be maintained, but it definitely beats scooping cat poop all the time. In terms of build quality, this thing is solid. It's well engineered, easy to operate, and very quiet. Our cats had no problem getting used to it at all. It is also very BIG, so figuring out where you want to "hide" it might be a challenge. Be aware that the overall footprint of this thing will swallow a small bathroom. I give this 4-stars only because let's face it - this is a $700 litter box. If it weren't for my wife making an independent executive decision, I personally would not have been able to make this purchase. Not a reflection of the product at all, I'm just a pretty frugal kind of person. Is it worth it? That depends on your budget and how much you value this level of convenience. If socio-economic conditions permit, then yes - It will make your life a lot easier.

After using the Litter-Robot 4 for several months, I can confidently say it’s a significant upgrade from traditional litter boxes and even earlier Litter-Robot models. The most immediate benefit is the convenience-no more daily scooping. Instead, I just empty the waste drawer about once a week, which is a huge time-saver and keeps my home smelling fresher. One of the standout features is the improved odor control. The waste drawer’s design, combined with a carbon filter positioned above it, does a great job at trapping smells. I also appreciate that the trash bag wraps around the outside of the drawer, making it easier to install and helping prevent litter from getting stuck on the sides. The app integration is another highlight: it reliably notifies me when the drawer is full, lets me monitor my cats’ litter box usage, and even tracks their weight-a surprisingly useful feature for keeping tabs on their health. The Litter-Robot 4 is noticeably quieter than the previous model, which is great for a peaceful home environment. Cleaning the unit is a bit easier thanks to a new handle on the globe, though deep cleaning is still somewhat awkward and time-consuming, as you have to disassemble the globe and handle a bulky part. Regular maintenance, like monthly deep cleans and weekly spot checks, is still necessary to keep things running smoothly and odor-free. On the downside, the Litter-Robot 4 is expensive, and the interior space may feel cramped for larger cats. While it’s more compact on the outside, it still takes up a fair amount of floor space. Some users have reported occasional sensor glitches or cycling errors, but I found the app and hardware to be reliable in daily use. Overall, I’m impressed by how much easier the Litter-Robot 4 has made cat care. It’s not perfect-regular cleaning is still required, and the price is steep-but for the convenience, odor control, and tech features, it’s been worth the investment for my household.

I was hesitant to buy this because of the high price tag. We have neighbors that own the older model and love it. We went ahead and took advantage of the Black Friday sale and Best Buy’s easy payment options. No regrets!! This is a must have for any cat owner. We have 3 cats and this litter robot is absolutely worth every penny. Not having to scoop litter is priceless. We have owned other fancy litter boxes- even the toilet one, and this is by far the best. No special litter to buy. No expensive soap cartridges. If you’re thinking about getting it, do it! One of our cats is 17lbs and he fits in this just fine. Our cats took right to it. Would buy again!

I was very hesitant to buy this considering the price tag, but now I wish I had purchased it sooner. I have three cats, the oldest is 13. I have used every type of litter box/litter you can find and this is by FAR the best product I have ever purchased as far as cleanliness, ease of use for me, and the cats, odor control and ease of deep cleaning. My only regret is not going for the best/newest model, but I was afraid my cats wouldn’t like it — I was wrong.

I know what youre thinking. “Id rather scoop a litterbox than ever spend $800 on a LITTERBOX!” Well your be right but also wrong. It is a practical purchase but it isnt for everyone seeing how for many $800 can be a house payment, but if you really are tired of scooping a litterbox or it constantly stinks up the house then you should go for it (or at least finance it to afford it). Its very simple to set up almost ready out of the box. I can no longer smell the waste even when you’re close to it. On the plus side it also looks aesthetically pleasing.

Very pleased with this product. Purchased for family member with two cats and there is now virtually no smell. It was just what they needed. It was also very easy to setup

I waited almost two months before writing this review. I wanted to make sure it worked. I have seen a number of other reviews where the buyer was frustrated. Not me. Works as advertised. Took a little bit of learning on my part, but it was worth it. Great product. No muss, no fuss, no smell, no more digging out nuggets. Yes, it is pricy. But it is worth it.

Was hesitant because of the price, but bought a cheaper automatic litter box and that’s where I lost the money! Super easy set up. No smell. Trying different litters currently to find the one with the least amount of dust. But that shouldn’t hold you back. Has made my life much easier. My cat adjusted to it the same day and prefers it over his other one.

I was afraid my cats would be afraid for the noise but just the opposite occurred. My three cat’s lineup to use it. It’s amazing to watch. One cat uses it while the next one waits for it to turn them takes his turn. No expensive bags needed. A plain 13 gallon drawstring bag firs over the draw and all I have to do is pull the strings up and take it to the trash. I did not receive any promotions on this product.

It took a couple weeks before my cat would use this regularly, but after that period it has been a definite help. I haven't had to scoop since! It's not a perfect solution, since often times clumps of litter get stuck in the grate and I need to clean it off. All things considered, I wish this was about half the price and I would say it's completely worth it.

I’ve had the litter box for about 3 weeks. I have 2 cats and both of them use the litter box. I love that I don’t have to scoop and I can monitor how often they use the litter box even when I’m traveling. The Litter Robot is easy to set up and use. I followed the instructions provided and my cats started to use the Litter Robot instead of their old litter box in the second week of use. For the first week, I manually cycled the litter box. For the past 2 weeks, the Litter Robot has been set to cycle 30 minutes after the cat is detected. I shortened the wait time today to 25 minutes and removed the old litter box. Although the instructions recommend a 15 minute delay with multiple cats, I’m still working out the litter clumping speed. I use Tidy Cats Lightweight with Glade which seems to clump slower than I expected. I also added Dr. Elsey’s Cat Attract to the litter to encourage the cats to use the Litter Robot.

I thought I was buying a litter box. What I actually purchased was a high-tech throne for my cat, Mojo the Majestic. The moment I set up the Whisker Litter-Robot 4, Mojo examined it like a king inspecting his new palace, gave me a slow, approving blink, and immediately decided this was his spaceship, his fortress, and his personal bathroom concierge all in one. At first, I was skeptical. Would this robotic wonder truly handle the foul sorcery that Mojo unleashes on a daily basis? Oh, my dear, unsuspecting nose—this thing doesn’t just handle it; it eliminates all evidence like some kind of feline MI6 operation. No scooping, no smelly surprises, just sweet, glorious cleanliness. And the smart app? Oh, it’s next-level. Now, my phone sends me push notifications about Mojo’s bathroom habits, which is something I never thought I needed in life but now find both hilarious and strangely fascinating. My cat is basically tweeting me from the toilet. But the best part? Mojo now fully believes this is his personal spaceship. Every time he enters, he does a dramatic pause, as if preparing for launch. The box cycles when he’s done, and he watches it with awe and suspicion, like he just witnessed magic. Sometimes, he even sits in front of it for hours, waiting for it to do something else cool. Final verdict: If you love your cat but hate scooping poop, buy this. If your cat has an inflated ego and dreams of intergalactic conquest, buy this. If you want to witness a small furry creature experience the future before your very eyes, BUY. THIS. NOW

Best purchase I’ve made for my cats. I bought two Litter Robot 4’s for my 6 cats and I plan to buy one or two more. My most neurotic cat took to it immediately and the others took a bit longer to adjust. One of my cats is a tripawd and he uses it without any issues. I have a love-hate relationship with the app; the robots disappear off the app from time to time.
