CATLINK Self Cleaning Cat Litter Box for Multiple Cats, Health Monitoring, Automatic Litter Box with APP, Odor Control, 65L Safe Pinch-Free Robot Cat Litter Box, White/Large (Luxury Pro-X)

I have had this litter box for 20 months now. With a pride of cats I really needed to try out a self cleaning box as I have several boxes in my house. This box is easy to set up and works great. As long as you clean the waste bag weekly, you should not have any odors. I also wipe the inside and outer parts with a disinfecting wipe to keep it looking new! I have called the help line one time and have been impressed with the quick reply. I would recommend this cat litter box.

Love this product and very informative and helpful to notify about my cat activity. All related accessories are helpful too and they are available all time. If you have single cat I would recommend this one, if you have more than one I would recommend the one with camera. I have this product for over one year and I don't have problem with since I make sure it is clean.

I have had this litter bot for more than a year now and it has been working wonderfully for my 1 cat! I’m very satisfied with it! --------------- PROS: - Many self-cleaning options: You can set it to automatically clean every x amount of time, or x amount of time after your cat went, or manual if you’re scared of your cat getting stuck. There’s also an empty option to empty out the soiled litter to clean out the robot. - Good Sensor: I tested by putting my foot where the tray and dome meet when it’s cleaning and it was able to detect my feet even when the machine barely touched it! It also backed out when it detected it hit something. I think it also detects when a cat is peeking into it as well since I noticed it stopped when my cat pokes his head a bit far to look inside. - Easy to Clean: It’s very easy to take apart to clean the dome. The top hood and the base can’t be sprayed with water according to the manual, so you can just wipe those down. - App tracking: The app can tell you when the tray is full, when filter needs replacement, when litter needs replacement, when your cat pooped/peed, your cat’s weight, and the environment in the litter box. It can also detect multiple cats but I only have 1 so not too sure about that. - No Smell: It significantly decreased the smell when compared to my old open litter box! It still depends greatly on the quality of your litter though, as I bought cheaper litter and it smelled. - Cat Approved: it was very easy for my cat to transition into using this litter robot! Might depend on the cat though. CONS: - Hard to move around/carry: If you need to move this around, it will be very hard because of its round shape. It’s difficult to move it around without it tipping or falling. This is probably a 2 person item. - App tracking can be misleading at times: I noticed that sometimes it showed him peed when he actually pooped, and pooped when he actually peed… so I don’t think I would trust this too much, but the rest seems accurate. - Big & bulky: It’s pretty big and I sometimes move between houses along with my cat, so sometimes I wished I got a smaller one so I can put it in my car. But that’s alright, since I bought a regular closed litter box to move around when I’m away from my main place. - Litter can get stuck on the ceiling & crevices inside the robot: This happens when it spins, and it also has some screws in there that I noticed can be a soiled litter magnet. I would recommend cleaning the dome by itself with a hose every few weeks to prevent this. - May require stairs for the cat: I feel like the entrance is a little high up, so This is probably not ideal for older cats unless you buy them the stairs. My cat is not old but I bought him a stepping stool to help, which is a lot more affordable than the brand’s stairs. --------------- The cons I listed weren’t particularly deal breakers for me since I mostly cared about how it cleans and its safety features for my cat! Tips: It was easy for my cat to transition to the new litter robot, but here are some tips. I put his old litter into the new robot so it has his scent on it. I put it where his old litter box was. I also carried him to it and placed him inside to smell it. Lastly, I sat with him while he was looking at it when it’s cleaning so he knows that it’s harmless. Overall, I would 100% recommend this self-cleaning litter robot!

I've had this litterbox for a year and a half and it has worked great. Recently, however, the sensor that notifies me when litterbox liner needs replacement has stopped working. I am currently working with CatLink to resolve this issue and they have been helpful so far. Otherwise, I have had no issues with this litterbox. It can be a little tricky to figure out how to disconnect it completely for cleaning, but it has become easier the more I do it.

Originally came to review the pros and cons of this litter box since I've had it for over a year now (purchased June 2023), and I own 2 of these for my 3 cats. That may be surprising since we all know the # of cats + 1 litter box rule... but I discovered it works surprisingly well, and I was able to save on litter box space within my apartment (just means I need to dump the litter box more often). But I digress. I realized something quite disappointing: when I was trying to find the product I ordered, I realized the company has quite a few listings for what seems like the same product... all at different prices. Just try searching "CATLINK Self Cleaning Automatic Litter Box for Cats" on Amazon and you will see what I mean. At time of writing, one product listing is advertised at $380, another at $419, and this one at $469. There are no discernable differences between any of them. They all describe the product as "CATLINK Pro X" at some point, with various similar descriptors like Luxury / Upgrade / New to make it that much more confusing. I don't know about you, but finding this out just left a bad taste in my mouth. Feels too much like they're trying to cheat their customers. Who knows if they're simply taking returns and reselling them at a lower price under a different SKU. Either way, I don't think customers deserve to be deceived like this. Especially given when you buy something at this price point, you could basically buy something like a small iPad or Nintendo Switch. Prior to finding the above out, I had intended to rate this 3 stars based on my 1 year+ experience with the product. Here are the original pros and cons I planned to share: PROS - Definitely saves time if you are moving from manually cleaning the litter box every day to a litter robot. The biggest and most obvious pro, I think. But is this the best litter robot if you're in the market for one anyway? I don't know. - Automatic cleaning after a cat does its business is pretty reliable (99% of the time). Occasionally, I will find a dump that for some reason didn't make it into the waste drawer after a clean cycle, but usually manualy initating the clean procedure solves that as it falls in without issue. - App doesn't do all the fancy stuff you see on the product page (the poor English doesn't help, UX is just alright) but it does let you initiate manual cleans and change the robot settings right from your phone, so that's nice. Also I wouldn't consider it 100% accurate, but for the most part, you can see when a cat uses the litter box. I basically don't check this regularly though, as I don't have much need for that information. - Isolates waste smell pretty effectively. My cats have aged out of the stinky kitten poop stage, but we can still when they've gone. So we definitely notice that after the robot runs the clean cycle, the smell also goes away. - When the litter is emptied from the robot, it's overall not that heavy to move, which is convenient if you need to put it in a different room or are moving homes. CONS - There are ZERO grip holds anywhere on the darn thing. This may seem like a minor/unnecessary thing, and I'm sure that's why whoever designed this overlooked it. But honestly, the longer I own this, the more I realize WHAT A PAIN having a cumbersome, unwieldy litter robot like this is, ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU NEED TO CLEAN OR MOVE IT. Instead, any time I try to pick up the robot or tilt it back to get a better angle for cleaning the waste drawer interior or inside the dome, the "cover" always pops off so easily, making it extremely frustrating. I have no idea why it's not designed to be latched with a lock mechanism or something to keep it from popping off with the slightest upward pressure. Probably the company just trying to save money, if I had to guess. There is basically NO reason to have the cover be so easily removable, since any cat owner would not have a need to remove the cover on a daily or even monthly basis. It's not even something that helps with regular light cleaning/maintenace of the product, because it just reveals the spinning dome piece and if you ever wanted to strip down the product and completely clean every piece, then maybe you'd want to do pop off the cover... but if you're just trying to do an occasional deep clean WITHOUT disassembling the product, it's totally irrelevant. I do not want to have to grab a screwdriver, pop off the cover, disassemble the dome halves, just so I can wipe down the inside??? Literally, give me a handhold I can use it to tilt the robot back and just simply reach in and wipe the interior... So in terms of cleaning and ease of maintenace, I'd give this 0 and negative stars if I could. For the amount of money I've spent, I would hope to use this product for many years, and I don't want years of filth accumulating in the interior of the robot that could negatively impact my cats and my health. Naturally, regular cleaning/maintenace of the product would prevent that but in my experience, the sheer unwieldiness and almost *fragility* of the product design makes doing so just an unbelievably frustrating endeavor. This product feels like cheaply put together plastic pieces with some things screwed down and other things flimsly attached (like the cover) which makes a cat owner trying to figure out how to best clean it extremely frustrated and spending more time than they'd want. I sometimes wonder if all the time I saved manually scopping is taken back with my Sisyphean efforts just to clean/maintain this darn thing. - The app supposedly alerts you when the litter box is full, but it is not reliable in my experience. Many times, it alerted me too late, and with waste spilling over in the drawer, I had to spend more time trying to clean the interior, which again, is annoying and painful because of the poor product design (no way to easily manuever the product for cleaning). Sigh, I am really disappointed.

I’ve had this for one month and it’s been life changing so far. It is quite expensive, but I have two male cats that use the litter A LOT and this was the best decision ever. Gives me a week without having to clean it apart from the occasional stool that gets stuck on the silicone side and I just help it unstuck to be pushed down. But no more daily cleaning large scoops! No smell so far, very safe for them as it doesn’t close, and they used it immediately with no issues. I thought we may needed a step for our 7 month old but didn’t. After a few days it learned whether each cat was pooping or peeing and this is a great information to have. Very helpful if we’re travelling and whoever is coming to check on them doesn’t have to scoop everyday, just check if everything is ok with the machine. Negatives I can live with: Doesn’t work as well using tofu litter but works good enough. The sensor of amount of litter available isn’t great, sometimes says it’s low when it’s not and the other way around, but I keep an eye on it.
