[{'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 8, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "I have used this litter box and these trays for 3 years now and I can't believe I'm still spending money on them. Based on my 3 years of experience of using them, I can really attest to the false claims that they make about this product. Let's go down the list of their claims, shall we?\n\nFirst, each tray is supposed to last 20-30 days for one cat. Well, I have one cat and if I don't switch trays after 1.5-2 weeks then there is urine all over the floor underneath it. So that means that I have to replace each tray every 1.5-2 weeks. Which means I now spend almost $30 in litter per month. When I had two cats I was replacing these trays WEEKLY. If you have two cats, you can forget about these unless you're a millionaire.\n\nThe brand claims these trays are leak-proof which I just debunked. We even put a pee pad underneath each tray because they leak even with the plastic film at the bottom AND with layering the top cover under the bottom tray for extra protection.\n\nMold grows on the feces and urine once it is collected at the bottom of the tray leading to additional odor--gross.\n\nThe brand boasts that the crystals are low-tracking and don't stick to pet's paws, yet I find little blue crystals all over my house and sometimes in my bed--again, gross.\n\nThese crystals don't have a scent, which I like, but do absolutely nothing to cover odor. And that is with me switching out for a new box every 1.5-2 weeks! My laundry room constantly reeks of urine.\n\nDue to all of this, cleanup is a disaster. I have to wear gloves or I am covered in pee, I have to tape all four corners of the box shut so that when I put it into a trash bag it doesn't open and explode everywhere, and I have to sweep up crystals and mop up urine every time I switch out boxes. The more I type on, the crazier I feel for actually having used this product for 3 whole years. Smh.\n\nFinding another solution right this second--lol!"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Highly toxic!!!! So my cat I guess was cleaning himself and got these caught in his throat. Well needless to say he didn’t make it. We opened up his mouth after he violently ran through the house and he fell over, his mouth was full of the crystals.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "My daughters begged me to let them have a cat. My wife promised they would take care of everything. So we got a cat. After a couple of months, they tired of their responsibilities and now this cat relies on me for everything. Every self-cleaning litter box I bought broke after a few months. I read the reviews on PetSafe ScoopFree Self-Cleaning Cat Litter Box and it seemed promising. Our 3 year old cat took to it immediately. It has immensely lightened the burden of being a cat caregiver. I change out the litter once a month. Best of all, the litter box has lasted several years and it's still going strong."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 2, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': "LOVE this product!!!\n\nThese refills are expensive, roughly $15 a pop. With that said, we have two cats and just moved from a large home into a townhouse and I love this product. With our home, we were able to keep the litter box in our garage since we installed a kitty door but that's not possible in the townhouse. We've been using these litter tray refills for 5 weeks. We set up the ScoopFree litter box with a separately purchased scrap rug to collect any loose blue litter crystals from the litter tray. The refill trays themselves are no brainers to set up - simply lift the cat box housing (it's clean...), take the lid included with the new refill tray and use it to cover the old tray (absolutely no smell!) and then put the new tray in the same spot as the old tray and lower the housing in place. (I use heavy duty tape to tape the lid onto the old tray so that when I throw it into the garbage dumpster the litter doesn't spill all over.) One of these trays last us about 8 days (with 2 cats). They can use the box 35 times (counter on litter box) before we notice ANY odor at all. I hate litter boxes and this is a great product!!! By the way, I purchased my ScoopFree Litter Box for $200.00 at my local, large chain pet store then found it online at Amazon for under $100.00."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2018', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "Used to be four to five stars; the purple litter trays seem to work best, but are also the least available for some reason.\nRecently we received a three pack and we've already gone through it in less than a month. Waste of money, as the trays used to last at least 10-14 days, without any odor. Within days of changing everything out, the trays smell and the litter crystals are a very weird color. The formulation appears to have changed significantly and are no longer effective. We have used this system for over 4 years."}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-2 review-rating', 'review_body': "I have been ordering this product since last year. Last year it was amazinggggggggg. This year I am not sure what is going on but the last 3 pack I purchased I used them all within in a month!!! I never had to do that before! I ordered them again and tried to remove the lining to see if that would work and nope. 3 trays in a little over a MONTH!!! The point of buying such a high priced cat litter system is to reduce the need to change the crystals so often. I don't know what they are using but these crystals can't be the same. And the lining on the box sucks.\n\nGO BACK TO THE ORIGINAL PRODUCT"}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'Im sorry.. But I do not understand what all of these people are COMPLAINING about!!! I have a cat that poops like a GROWN MAN! lol\nWe had three different litter boxes and this one has solved the problem.\n1. If the cats poop is sticking to the cleaning rake set the timer for a little longer and let the poop dry!\n2. If the cat pee is leaking through put something under it! or Change the litter a little more often! Or add crystal litter once a week!\n3. Put a little litter deodarizer in the storage area to keep it as smell free as possible.\n4. I do suggest you buy crystal litter from the store instead of buying more refills.. (the price is crazy)\n\nIve had this product for 3 months and only had to change it ONCE. I empty the storage so its not loaded with cat poop! and I add a little crystal litter every week or two.. My house smells great! And the litter box is in the corner of my LIVING room! (one bedroom)\n\nGreat product - No smell - very little to NO maintnence -'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2017', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-5 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I adore my cats, but after having a major illness and being treated over several years with different types of chemotherapy I just could no longer muster the strength to lift and to even to scoop the litter box anymore. I thought that by having my traditional scooping litter delivered right to my door that my litter box struggle would be considerably less. I was wrong. I could just barely manage getting down on my knees in order to scoop the box, but what I could not do was carry out the heavy bag of scooped clumps and remaining dirty litter in the box or lift the heavy bag up over the side of the dumpster to dispose of it. I also could not manage to wash and sanitize the box every 7 or 9 days as I always have. I was becoming very concerned about the health and happiness of my pets and myself. I worried about the bacteria that was multiplying at an incredible speed, the odor, and more than anything that the cats would either hold their urine or attempt to find alternative places to eliminate because I was unable to properly dispose of their obviously filthy and smelly waste or keep their litter and box as fresh as possible. Enter the fresh scoop box, and WOW has it changed my life and my cats lives! Now when it comes to the litter box, essentially it scoops itself. After 12-14 days I lift the very light housing up away from the disposable litter tray, take the litter tray box top out from under the litter tray which now contains the dirty litter and cover the used litter tray with the clean box top. I then take 4 pieces of inexpensive packing tape or two of giant rubber bands and tightly secure each side of the box. It is amazing to me that approx 14 days of used odor free litter ( produced by 2 cats) is contained in a (after taping it closed) compact, clean, approx size is 25"x15 and approx 2-3" thick (deep),extremely light weight, and in white unmarked box. I can carry the box outside under my arm and can with absolutely no effort at all drop it right into the dumpster. I used to have layer 3 new stretch scented trash bags inside of each other to make a reinforced bag that was certain not to tear with the weight of the used litter, get on my knees next to box and try scoop the very thick, sludgy, wet, and heavy globs of used litter twice a day. The trash pick up is three times a week, because the urine odor attracts rats, I would have wait with an extremely heavy stinking garbage bag with 2-3 days worth of dirty litter until just before the garbage pick occurred to throw out the dirty litter. I would always panic when I had to rush around after hearing the dump truck coming down the street trying to get the very heavy garbage bag outside and in the dumpster before the truck arrived. Many times, even if I could use a small cart to carry the bag out, I just could not lift the bag up into the dumpster. The whole issue was just becoming a HUGE problem and worry for me. I am so relieved and happy to say, that thanks to the technology of scoop free litter box and efficiency that Amazon offers concerning shipping and delivery, I am no longer worrying or struggling just trying to take care of my pets. It is really awesome!! The only downside and I hate to point out any negatives with this lifesaver, is the price. It is really expensive for me now that I am on a fixed income due to my health. I worry about the price continuing to escalate at a rapid rate over time. As for the product 5 stars as for the price I wish that there was a better lower price offered for buying the 6 pack of refills or a refill program or club that the company-not Amazon- offered for a significant savings for consistent consumers. I will say that the best and cutest added bonus of the scoop free litter box system is that the cats LOVE ❤️ to race over to the box after they hear the "arm" mechanism engage, and they wait crouching down until the "show" starts. My smarty pants bengal has figured out how the whole thing works. She will round up her trusty, but less smart partner in crime, step halfway inside of the box and with over exaggerated scratching movements attempting to "set off" the cleaning mechanism. After a few seconds of wild movement, she quickly backs up and out of the box then crouches down with her buddy on the mat waiting for the show to start. Hilarious! I highly and definitely recommend this litter box. This box especially addresses concerns for anyone who struggles daily ( due to health, mobility, age, living arrangements, etc) or simply really dislikes the whole process of lugging home crazy heavy boxes of dusty litter, scooping the box religiously, disposing of the dirty litter, the odor produced from the litter box, and suffering from allergies as well as extra dusting/sweeping around the home due to the dust processed from even the newest scoopable litter.'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': 'I have been using this product for over 5 years. Recommend to family and friends and they are also experiencing the same issue. Within the past few months I have noticed the crystals are not lasting more than a week before the odor starts where before one tray would last almost 4 weeks! This is for one cat. The price has not decreased but the quality sure has! Very disappointed. We employee you to please fix this ASAP!'}, {'review_meta': 'Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2019', 'review_star': 'a-icon a-icon-star a-star-1 review-rating', 'review_body': "I have a multi-cat and dog household. I need to have an autocleaning box so the dogs don't eat... well... ya know. I've had my Littermaid for 5 years. These used to be around $7 per tray and they lasted 45-50 rakes. Now, even with a 15% sub and save, they are a whopping $13 (a $16 per tray cost without!) and only last 33-38 rakes. With 3 cats, that's about 5-6 days. I used to get a full month out of one pack of 6 minimum. Now? I'm lucky to get 3 weeks. The boxes now are no longer sealed properly and they leak... A LOT. You also no longer get a trash bag to dump them. My baseboards were DISGUSTING from the corner this sat in - this never happened until the last year. I had to pull them off, pull up the vinyl flooring, replace the mat under, then Kilz everything. I got a mat to go under, but often, if two cats go before raking - now that you also get less crystals, one bag doesn't cover well - it doesn't matter either.\n\nNo one in their right mind would pay over $104 a month for litter. It's cheaper to actually buy plastic litter boxes and throw them away once a week all together. (Litter pans run $6 on Amazon, a tub of crystal litter is about $18 for me - this means a tub every 2 weeks and a new pan every week.\n\nMath says $68 is cheaper than $104. Yearly, it's $1248 for me! ($1536 if you don't have 15% sub and save!!!!) That's before all the cleaning supplies to keep up!\n\nYearly to literally keep throwing new boxes away? $780. (Small pan boxes are even cheaper at a whole $3.)\n\nWhat could YOU do with an extra $756? I can think of better things than flimsy, leaking, PITA boxes."}]
