Title: Worth it!
Review: This can be difficult to deep clean, but it really doesnât need to be deep cleaned that often as long as you make sure to dump the drawer everyday and change out the litter regularly. Iâve went months without taking it apart to clean it fully.It is pretty heavy, but it doesnât take up an unreasonable amount of space. I have it in a corner by my trashcan.Depending on the type of litter, there isnât much of a smell unless it has just been used. I use Dr. Elseyâs litter. A hard clumping litter definitely works best. Donât overfill it or you will lose a lot of litter that ends up in the drawer. I donât go by the percentages shown in the app or on the screen as Iâve not found them to be accurate. I just look at it to check the level isnât below the minimum.There is a scented spray thatâs included that sprays periodically and that seems to work well as I hardly ever notice a smell until it runs out. One bottle of the spray lasts months.I had this 10 months and there was a power failure. At first it wouldnât turn on at all. After a few hours, it turned back on but the screen wouldnât work. The box worked as normal but I couldnât see any of the settings on the screen. I contacted PETKIT and they sent me a brand new one within a couple of weeks. It wasnât a difficult process to get the replacement and the customer service was excellent. They also didnât ask that I ship the broken one back which is awesome since it technically still works for the most part, so I can keep it as a backup if I ever need one.The app for this could definitely use some upgrades, but I donât really use it anyway. Do we really need an app for everything? Just dump the waste out daily and pay attention to the amount of litter in the box. I do keep the app to force it to do an extra clean or spray extra air freshener and it works fine for that.The sensors work VERY well, and it will stop whatever itâs doing when the kitties walk up. At first they were curious and would poke their heads in when it started to clean to see what was happening. It stops immediately as soon as they are in range. I never worry about them being hurt by it like Iâve seen happen with some of the other self-cleaning litter boxes.All in all, this is 100% worth the money. I canât imagine going back to the âeasy cleanâ rolling litter box or scooping.

Title: Stopped working after a month! UPDATE
Review: Update 4/21/23: Since I was still within the return window, I took a leap of faith and bought another one hoping I just got a defective unit. Turns out these litter boxes are garbage all around. My next one had different issues, which customer support is being extremely unhelpful with even though Iâm still within warranty period. I hoped to have a quick resolution with them but they leave me no choice but to post this review accompanied by screenshots and video. Iâve had this newer device for only couple months and itâs already broken. It was working fine until one day I got a notification on my app that the automatic cleaning failed. So I tried to do a manual clean but the cylinder wouldnât turn. Afterwards, I tried the other functions (reset, level, etc) and no matter what, the cylinder still wouldnât rotate. I tried turning on/off, resetting the internet connection, removing the cylinder and cleaning insideâ¦but nothing worked. So I emailed customer support and they requested video, serial number, my app username and order #. I provided everything to them including screenshots from my app. But then they said they couldnât view the video even though I sent it to other email addresses and you can view it just fine. So Iâll just post the video here and send them a link to my review so they can see the video that way.They also wanted me to send a screenshot of my app showing the serial number there (apparently it wasnât good enough to just provide the serial number that is on the actual physical device). But I couldnât do that because at this point, my device had gone offline due to an internet outage and I couldnât connect it after my internet came back on. I sent them a screenshot showing it failed to connect so therefore I canât send a screenshot of the app showing the serial number there. And yes, I am using 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi connection, so itâs not due to using the wrong connection. Iâve had to connect this device to Wi-Fi multiple times before just fine until now.In this update, Iâm including the initial app screenshots showing the log of all the failed cleaning/reset/leveling attempts as well as the video of me trying to manually do those functions. Iâm also including a screenshot showing I can no longer connect the device to Wi-Fi anymore.Update 1/31/23: Wow Iâm in shock. I got a notification on my phone this morning that the litterbox was offline, so I assumed my internet went out in middle of the night. Nope. It turns out that the litterbox was completely off and wouldnât turn back on no matter how many times I pressed the buttons. I also tried plugging it into other outlets and it still wouldn't turn on. Iâm in shock that I spent this much money for something to work for barely a month!! Itâs unfortunate this happened since it was a great machine (when it actually worked). Iâll be returning it asap since Iâm still within the return window. Thankfully I purchased it during the holiday season, so the return window was extended til 1/31/23...which is today! PHEWUpdate 1/9/23: Wellâ¦all 3 of my cats are finally using it!! Itâs been a game changer not having to clean the litter boxes everyday. Iâm so pleased that I bought 3 of them for different rooms. I hope I donât jinx myself by leaving a positive review (meaning I hope they donât break shortly after this glowing review). If anything negative happens, Iâll be updating my review and lowering the stars. But so far so good ðUpdate 12/27/22: My original review is below, but I wanted to update this review and increase it from 1 star to 3 stars. I finally got one of my cats to use it but the others still won't touch it. I really like the features of this model, so hopefully I can get my other cats to warm up to it.Original Review:I researched a long time for a self cleaning litter box and finally settled on this one because I liked how I could store items on top so it would serve a dual feature. I originally wanted to get the newest litter robot 4, but thereâs a 3-4 week backlog to ship it and I was impatient. Anyways, Iâve tried everything I can to get my cats to use it (put some of their old litter inside and add some of their waste in there to attract them with scent, adding a step so the opening isnât so high up, leaving their old litter boxes dirty, and finally taking their old litter boxes away to give them no choice but to use the new one. When I went with the last option, they started going on my Yorkiesâ wee wee pads and would scrunch them up after pawing at them as if itâs litter. Iâm so frustrated at this point. Thankfully I saved the box so I can return it.

Review: I was eyeing this litter box back since late 2021 but then it was sold out not available for a while, I finally managed to grab it last week while it was semi on sale and a comparable price to other automatic litter boxes in Canada and so far Iâm loving it!We have two cats but only really ideally have room for one litter box which I was cleaning multiple times a day, both of our cats took straight to using the Pura X and it has been so nice to not have to clean a litter box 4-5 times a day.I didnât have any issues with any of the installation, it was a tad bigger than I thought it was going to be but I was able to fit it nicely in an open coat closet, right nearby where their old litter box was. The app worked no problem and itâs been very informative to see how often each of the cats is using it, especially since one of the cats is a bit older and has had previous bathroom issues.I would definitely recommend the Pura X, I honestly donât know why I didnât jump on getting it back in 2021. No more manual scooping here!

Review: Después de mucho investigar y ver comentarios, decidi comprarla. Ha hecho mucho más sencillo tener 4 gatos en casa, de 4-5.2 kg, y de 1 a 3 años de edad.Primero dejamos que se familiarizaran con el arenero, y permitiendo aun que utilizarán areneros convencionales, luego les dejamos solo uno normal, y dejamos de limpiarlo seguido para que les pareciera más atractivo el nuevo y limpio arenero automático.poco a poco vi que iban usando más el pura X, y el sensor de peso es muy exacto, identifica cada uno de mis gatos, la ventaja es que todos pesan diferente, sino si los puede llegar a confundir.Después de dos - tres semanas note que solo faltaba uno de mis gatos que la usará, asà que decidà quitar la última caja, con eso no tuvo más remedio que acostumbrarse.Si tuve problemas con mi gato más grande porque no se podrÃa acostumbrar al espacio más reducido y llegó a hacer dos veces fuera de la caja, pero ya me lo esperaba por qué también le llegó a pasar con el arenero normal. Los demás no tuvieron ningun problema.Recomiendo hacer una limpieza profunda al menos 1 vez al mes, sirve para rellenar el lÃquido de aromas, y que el timmer de limpieza automática la tengan desactivada al inicio, para que no se asusten los gatos, ya que están acostumbrados, yo lo puse a media hora para que los desechos puedan solidificarse bien con la arena, sino puede manchar las paredes al caer.Las bolsas son resistentes y el único paquete que viene me duró 3 meses, ya compre otros 5 rollos asà que espero que me dure de 10-12 meses. Son resistentes y pueden bien con el cubo de residuos lleno. Tarda en llenarse de 2-3 dÃas, depende de cuánto vayan al baño mis gatos, cada uno la utiliza de 2-3 veces al dÃa (datos gracias a la app).Pero cuidado de no dejar que se llene, porque a pesar que identifica que está lleno, aún asà hace la limpieza cuando va un gato, y eso puede hacer que se manchen las paredes.Si no está en una base firme o bien nivelado, puede tener problemas de medición del peso, o identificar falsamente que hay un gato en la caja, la mayorÃa de las veces solo lo apague y prendÃ, pero los problemas se solucionaron cuando lo nivele bien.De ahà en fuera nos ha facilitado mucho el trabajo, es más fácil solo cambiar la bolsa que andar limpiando media hora todo el arenero, un ahorro de tiempo y arena bastante considerable, buena inversión!Edit: ya a más de un año con el arenero automático, y aún sigue funcionando, aparte de los problemas de nivelar bien el piso, todo ha funcionado muy bien, mis gatos están muy acostumbrados, y no hacen fuera de la caja, por el momento todo bien, aunque no se si les seguira sirviendo cuando ya estén viejos, l sea de fácil acceso para ellos.

Review: Itâs my first time ever reviewing on Amazon.This litter box is life changing. My cats easily adapted to it, they are still intrigued when it starts the cleaning process, but if they come close the litter stops immediately. I love the tracking features, with weight, frequency etc.Never smells bad.1000000% recommend

Review: Like, it works perfectly and easy, but for example the door is very small and my cats barely fit inside, they are 6.5 kg and 5.6 kg.Its too high from the ground the cats finding it difficult to jump inside. I was not expecting its that small for a big machine

Review: I know that I donât say this nearly as often as I should, but I really wanted to thank you for your quick response, communication and care to provide high level of support and service. I bought smart cat litter box but after 6 months, the device has been crashing. I just called the seller and within 3 days, The seller replaced the old one with new device. Honestly, their service exceeded my expectations. Finally, special thanks to Faizan for his efforts and outstanding service!
