CATLINK Self Cleaning Cat Litter Box, Auto Safety Sensors for Multiple Cats 3.5～22 pounds, Double Odor Removal with Trash Bags(Young Version)

I bought this about two years ago now and I’m still using it. There’s been the occasional issue with a sensor getting gross or needing to manually reset it, but overall I’m pleased with the quality. This month is the first time I’ve seen any wear as my cats are kind of aggressive scratching machines - they did tear a small hole in the rubber liner, but Catlink’s customer service has been great about trying to work with me to replace part of it so I can continue to use the box. I find myself replacing the liners once a week, twice max. It keeps the scent mostly contained depending on the litter I use, and is as easy to clean as a box of that design could be. Capacity is great and the thing’s heavy enough to stay put but light enough to move around. No real leakage for me except through the tear my cats made. Overall, will be buying again in the future when this one totally goes kaput. And have recommended to friends.

Food serving, water bowl filling, and litter box cleaning are all joys of having a pet cat. I'm a firm believer in technology and its ability to assist in everyday chores. I have an automated cat feeder, a self filling water fountain, and thanks to CATLINK, a self cleaning litter box! If you're looking for automation, look no further! Over the past month my cat has been able to do her business quietly, quickly, and cleanly.Delivery: Overall the packaging was as large as one may expect. Having a fully automated system means lots of moving parts that can easily be damaged when delivered, but luckily CATLINK's packaging allowed my unit to arrive without an dents or cracks. Cleanup was fast as there was only a few protective plastics to throw away and I didn't have to worry about vacuuming up any loose foam pieces.Setup: Following the instruction booklet is easy. If you prefer a visual aid, you also can watch a how-to on YouTube! The unit is quite simple to put together as most parts fit much like a puzzle. You don't have to do any preprogramming or changes to the settings, just plug it in and fill it up with your preferred litter.Features: I truly enjoy the ability to have the choice between a generic clumping litter vs a pellet style. Depending on whichever you use, ensure that you install the proper scooper in the device. CATLINK offers quite a few disposable bags to use in their system which is very nice. They do not come pre-installed so please make sure you add a bag before letting your cat do their business. The device cleans within minutes of your pet using it. This not only allows for a consistent litter circulation, but it also means less smell in the space. One thing to note about smell, CATLINK includes an odor blocking filter which can be placed in the disposal area. This aids in blocking pesky odors and keeps them trapped. As someone who keeps their litter box in the living room, it is quite refreshing to not have to worry about odors during movie night. As for emptying the litter, I have noticed that my cat fills the box in about two weeks of use. It is important to note this can be different depending on the number of cats you own and their personal dietary needs. There have been times when I forget to clean the tray, but the nice thing about the device is it will display an error sign indicating it needs emptied. One other cool feature is the safety built into the device. I was worried it would clean itself while my cat was inside. Luckily, CATLINK was smart enough to include a weight system which prevents any mechanical movement from happening until the area is safe. Lastly, this thing is QUIET, and I mean SILENT. I was astonished at how quickly it cleans itself without making any noise. My fiancé and I wanted to see it in action the moment we got it and when it finally was time for it to clean, we almost missed it since we didn't even hear it.Complaints: One complaint I have is the dirty litter tray can be cluttered at times. Since it is spinning in one direction each time it cleans, the disposal tray can be full on one side while the other is untouched. this can easily be fixed by taking the tray out and shaking it so it evens out the dirty litter. It would be nice if it could spread the dirty litter evenly to prevent the need to open it as much, but it's no big deal.Final thoughts: The CATLINK Automatic Litter Box has been an exceptional addition to my home, allowing a simple and effective way to quietly clean, dispose, and replace litter in a timely manner for my lovely fur baby. I will continue to use this device for the foreseeable future!

I'm very happy with the cat litter box. It's completely automatic, the sensors work wonderfully as soon as the cat enters and does its business as soon as it leaves. Just wait a few minutes and it cleans itself.When cats approach and it is moving, it automatically stops so as not to cause any harm to the pet. It is very hygienic, easy to clean, and truly represents a before and after having the machine. I would never stop having it.The customer service is excellent, the guys are concerned about helping you with any call, any question you have, they are pending, they return the money if I have time, they even call you by phone to find out if you were able to resolve any circumstance you had with the machine.I recommended it to a colleague at work who also has several cats and they are very happy with the machine. If you really want to have comfort for yourself and your animals, do not hesitate to buy it. It is something worthwhile and will be a great blessing in your life, day to day, in your time. It is truly amazing.

Update as of 7/17/2024: the new litterbox was finally delivered after a few weeks of waiting for an update on shipping/logistics. It works well! I gave them another star for their customer service and for reaching out to me to help solve my issue. I appreciated that they followed up and followed through with the promise of honoring their warranty.Original review: We were very excited for this product. Finally we wouldn't have to scoop litter. It was very easy to put together. It would automatically clean out the litter, 3 minutes after the cat stepped out of it. If in motion and the cat tried to step back in, the drum would stop moving right away. Definitely helps with the reduction of smell of litter, you barely know there's a litterbox until it's full and needs to be emptied.After 6 months it suddenly stopped working properly. The sensor would not make the drum clean itself out after the cat used it. If it was moving and the cat tried to get in it kept moving and scared the kitty. I called customer service and was delighted to find out they'd honor the warranty but it's has been 25 days since I first called for replacement and I have yet to receive it. When I ask for an update I keep getting told they are reaching out to logistics to get me an update and then I don't hear from them. After waiting 9 days I emailed again, and was given the exact same response of being referred to logistics for an update.
