Review title: Like throwing money out the window
Product review: We had an original Litter Maid self-cleaning cat box for nearly 5 years. We had very little trouble with it, so when it finally died, we purchased the new Litter Maid Elite, without doing any research. We figured our past experience was research enough - oh, how wrong we were.The Litter Maid Elite is a completely useless product. Ours, apparently, is afraid of encountering clumps. The rake will begin to move, but if it encounters the slightest clump, it will immediately reset itself. Once I manually scoop out the litter box, the rake will freely "clean" the box, but the self-cleaning function will then not stop - it "sweeps" back and forth 5 times, until it settles itself back into place, green light merrily blinking to indicate there is an error.I am now performing the function of the "automated self-cleaning litter box." Basically, I paid $119.00 for a box. Learn from my mistake - avoid this product at all costs!!
