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.

I have multiple cats and I was going through a lot of litter and bags and time scooping. Working so much, the boxes sometimes got a little neglected and I needed a way to rectify that. This machine is so handy and helpful. It wastes less litter since the mess doesn't sit there for ages seeping out into a bigger and bigger chunk. The automatic shifting can be set to just a few minutes to I believe half an hour. It connects to an app that you can control the time it sifts, you can set up pet profiles and it tracks your cats weight and usage, it lets you know when the litter level is low or when the litter box underneath needs to be emptied. Be warned not all cats will like this robot so keep a regular box around just in case. One of my 4 cats absolutely refuses to step inside so I keep a box right next to it for her. I scoop that box right into the robot so I don't have to waste extra bags and I only have to switch out the main bag once a week or so. My friend has less cats than me and can go about 3 weeks before needing to empty the litter box.

I think I love it more than my cats do and they fill it up every few days. I have 2 cats. I don’t like to scoop boxes. They don’t like to use dirty litter boxes. This is the best of both worlds. I had a little trouble getting it to connect with my wi-if and nearly gave up on getting it fully automated at first. I called tech support between meetings and they sent me an email with instructions to get it up and running. The second time I tried, it went without a hitch and other than a SNAFU when the power went out and the internet went down and it needed a button pushed, we haven’t looked back. The only issue I have is it seems to clean when it’s supposed to be sleeping so I wonder if it’s set to my time zone.

Bought this machine due to the fact we have three cats. Had multiple boxes throughout the house and still had a tough time keeping up. This machine solved that issue. Cats took to it fairly easy, and definitely keeps the cleaning nice and simple. Phone app works really well. Filters and bags are cheaper to get on Amazon, although a thirteen gallon trash bag works. Had it about two months now, and not a single issue.

I have always wanted one final could get on progressive leasing. This new version is amazing easy to use love the app and auto sponsor to detect cat. I clean and empty mine 1x a week for 2 cats. Love extra wide opening great for big/ longer cats. Which is why I did not by the robot3. I got the accessory package and the mat is truly a game changer. It not only traps litter but you can dump the litter back in to the robot. Can use clear trash bags when you run out of what it came with. I have a litter robot bag under and another trash bag on top to elp catch if my other bags break because they are not as thick as the litter robot bags. The lights Chang color to let you know what is needed.

All the advertising is true. If you're tired of scooping every time your cat hits the box, look no further. Let's get to why this is great quickly. It just works and works well. The internal "barrel" rotates after a set amount of time (that you can set in the app) and the loose litter falls into a special compartment while the waste is too big to do so and as it rotates, an opening appears at the bottom. The waste falls through the hole into a removable waste bin with a trash liner. What I love is when it rotates back, the stored good litter, returns to the bowl and it slightly over turns from the home position to allow the litter to fall in the perfect center position for it's home position.
Since the waste bin is only "in the open" when it's emptying, you don't get smell at all unless they've just went. There's a replaceable carbon filter that you can replace that helps with this as well, but I think it helps less than the bin just not being out in the open air.
The app is intuitive and easy to use. It has a smart scale where it will track the weight of your cats. Unfortunately for me, 3 of my 4 cats are very similar in weight so it struggles to measure them correclty. Aside from the buttons on the unit, you can control almost everything from the app since the litter robot connects to the wifi. The instructions are easy to follow so no worries there.
Finally cleanup is easy. You pull out the waste bin, tie up the bag, and drop it in your existing trash or take it straight out to the cans. The matt is two layers that separate like a book. I just fold it up like a taco and dump it into the fresh liner for the bin. Also with the core accessories bundle you get some toxic free wipes which I use to wipe down the inside of the barrel. I usually wear gloves and just give it a wipe down when it's in the "emptying" position so all the litter is stowed away and makes the occasional wipe down very easy.
This is an easy recommend. It's a big leap on the price but I think it's worth it to keep the house smelling fresh while cutting down on the time, space, and maintenance of 4 boxes vs 1.

This thing is a Godsend. We had been on the fence about this because of the price and because of stories of “robot” litter boxes potentially harming cats.
I did a lot of research and learned that the machines that harm cats are built very differently from the Litter Robot by Whisker. This machine is safe and can in no way harm a cat like the stories that are out there. From my understanding and experience with this Litter Robot, this is a very safe and amazing machine!
How to the actual robot. It works like a dream for our two cats. They took to it right away with no problems. We have the robot set to run a cycle 7 minutes after use and it has eliminated all foul smells that came with our old regular litter boxes.
I had become “nose blind” to the smells for the most part because we cleaned out the litter boxes daily. But no matter how often we cleaned the boxes or which types of litter we used (and we tried many), the house always had a bit of odor.
Since having the Litter Robot, our house no longer smells at all. Not even the room that houses the litter robot ever smells. It’s also very convenient as it self cleans. The bag seems small but it takes a while to be filled. And once it’s time to actually clean the robot, it is very easy.
Honestly, I wish we had made the decision to get this a lot sooner. We love our cats and determined that living with smells was just a part of the deal. The Litter Robot has changed all of that!

It’s very easy to use, definitely worth it especially if you have a busy schedule. My house has not smelled at all since I got it. Best purchase for my fur babies

I waited too long to get one! I wasn't sure the price was worth it. This robot cuts down my time to clean the cat litter to about 1 minute from previously spending 10 minutes a week of filtering and cleaning. It may not sound like much, but that's almost $600 worth of my time a year I just got back and a better smelling home. Just pull out the drawer, pull out the bag, top off the litter, and hit the cycle button. and the filters keep my room smelling 100% cat-free. The only drawback is that once my cat got used to it, she now thinks it's a toy and likes to hop in it when it cycles, luckily with all the sensors it pauses and resumes after a few minutes.
other positive is the app letting me know when it's getting full so I can keep it fresh. A worthwhile investment for me to buy back a little of my time and sanity.

I have two cats that are roughly 8.5 lbs each and they immediatley took to the litter robot 4 and used it right away. I recommend getting the litter pad for the floor and it makes it super easy to keep surrounding area clean. Even without it there was less residue on the floor when compared to a regular litter box. I only have to change the bag twice a week which is great for two cats. It is very quiet and unless you are right next to it you wint notice when it operates. The app is also great and you could never over fill it wity tye notifications. Great product!

This was the best purchase!! It took my shy kitty a few weeks to get comfortable but she used it right away just hesitant. She did have a back up for a couple weeks. I love it I never have to scoop again. It’s easy to clean. Makes my life so much easier. I definitely recommend.

This thing is simply awesome. Recommend you use it as a regular litterbox for a few days (not powered on) so the cat(s) get use to using it and aren't afraid of it. When you do turn it on, I'd set the cycle timer to be 30mins (and tip - turn the interior light off - they done need it and it could distract them when they're walking into the box) to give them plenty of time to get distracted, and off doing something else - otherwise they may still be around the litterbox and be inquisitive as to what's it's doing

Very close to perfect. The litter box is in my home office and since my cats don't cover their"business" it can be a real stickbom, plus we were starting to have issues of the cats disliking their box and finding other places. All cured with the litter robot. Cats and people are happy. SOmetimes litter sticks to the liner- easily cured with a silicone spatula now named the crapula.

I got a cat after not having one for years. I forgot how you literally have to scoop every day to avoid smelling the cat box. I researched litter robots and this one was expensive, but I figured they were all at least a couple of hundred dollars and I would go for the one with the best reputation and reviews. I’m glad I did. The setup was not too bad. The app setup was easy. It tells me when I need to empty the bottom tray. I don’t have to scoop anymore. My cat used it as soon as it was set up. I cannot smell any odor and I never have to scoop anymore. I would recommend this to anyone with cats. It’s made life so much easier.

This has been the best purchase! The setup was a bit tricky to get my network to sync up with it but once it was remedied it works like a charm. My four cats took to it right away. The app really makes it easy to monitor who is using it. I don’t stress anymore about the litter box chore. I recommend to anyone who has cats they need this in their life! I am going on vacation soon so not having to have some clean the litter box is a game changer.

After moving from a knock-off to an actual Whisker Litter Robot, this thing is fantastic! App is great, it's quiet when it cycles, and the cats started using it immediately which was a very nice surprise. The little night light on the inside is a wonderful touch. 5 stars from a 6-cat dad. #catdadapproved
