Omega Paw Elite Self Cleaning Roll ‘n Clean Litter Box, Midnight Black, Large (EL-RA20-1)

My cat uses her litter box quite often, and with it being in our home office, it was pretty nasty and smelly. Plus she would track litter out of it, and if it wasnt cleaned exactly when she wanted, she would make quite the scene, as well as track some out of the box. I was giddy when this new auto litter box arrived. It was super easy to put together, set up the app and make ready to go. My cat was curious, but started using it immediatly. There is absolutly NO smell left after it self-cleans. Taking out the litter liner is an easy, clean job. I was worried it would stop working when I wi-fi went out for a day, but that wasn't an issue. The instructions are a bit hard to understand, yet, I figured it out. When putting in the original litter, I used only 1 small bag from the Scoop Away brand. Put too much in, and it will be wasted when box does the cleaning spin. We just add a scoop or two every couple weeks when it looks like it is getting low. The app has never shown it low, so I don't know how low the litter can go before the app notifies. All in all, after 3 months, I am still completely giddy about how easy this is.

As a family of four cats (hello foster fail😂) I was desperate to find a solution to keep our house not smelling like a cat rescue! We had three different litter boxes and were constantly changing them and going thru boatloads of costly cat litter to try and keep things smelling clean and sanitary. I researched the heck out of auto options and came upon this one. It’s changed our life, seriously. I was so hesitant to spend so much money on this not knowing if it would work but the cats instantly loved it and the cost is more than justifiable for the quality of life improvement we’ve all seen. Cats are happy and our noses are too! My house doesn’t smell like cats and we’re going through 1/3 of the litter we were before with traditional boxes. You will not regret this purchase. I wish I’d pulled the trigger sooner!

This would have worked amazingly if my cats were a bit smaller. Both of our boys are 15-20lb cats that came from outside. One of them used the box no problem, the other one was just a little too big to get all the way inside. Ultimately we had to return the product, which sucked because one of them utilized it great and it would have made life so easy lol. If they ever make one for bigger cats, I’d buy in a heartbeat.

Like everyone else who probably purchased this item, I was hesitant at first to buy it due to the large price tag, but I eventually pulled the trigger and here are my thoughts after using it now for the past 2 months:1. The box comes already assembled and really easy to plug in and get going. The set up process with the app was a little glitchy at first but I figured it out and after the app was set up it was smooth sailing.2. In regards to function this litter box is awesome. You can set up through the app how long after your cat leaves the box do you want the robot to clean (I chose 1 minute). It works seamlessly and the clumped litter drops into the bottom of the bin then the deodorizer starts working shortly afterwards. There were a few times where the robot got stuck because I accidentally added too much litter and the cylinder was too heavy to make a full rotation. So be careful not to add too much litter.3. ZERO smell whatsoever. Has significantly improved the odor in the room where the litter box is kept.4. Cats had no issue with transitioning. They were using it by day 1 and to this day think its magic when they see the robot do its thing.5. Only drawback is during the rotation process of cleaning the litter it can kick out a small amount of litter. I vacuum daily so it is not a problem but can definitely be annoying.6. Cleanup is easy! Just remove the bin and toss the bag. No scooping necessary. Add some litter back to robot if needed. Place a new bag and you are done. I would recommend a deep clean of the inside of the robot at least once a month.Overall, this litter box is amazing. When you make this purchase you are investing in your TIME and quality of life. I change the litter bin once every 3-4 days, add litter as needed and it's that simple. And the smell is gone. Really wish I made this purchase sooner. Makes being a cat daddy so much easier.

I bought three of these units over the course of a month and a half to ease the transition for our cats from regular litter boxes. The first unit seemed fine, we bought a second unit, by the time I bought the third unit I only stayed with this brand to keep all litter bins in the same app.Issue #1 was picked up right away. They did a poor job translating everything from Chinese to English. Now the app will display such gems as “Enter the cat, weighing 6 kg” or “The bin is full, please clear in time!” These are mild, some are written so confusing it’s hard to figure out what is going on.Issue #2 You can only receive one alert at a time in the app. So if the litter tray is full and the machine is low on litter, you will only be able to see that the tray is full. This isn’t too bad, but it’s annoying when you go to the upstairs to empty the tray and find out you have to go back downstairs and get more litter.Issue #3 is that there is no clear guidance on how much litter to add. If you don’t add enough the inside of the drum becomes messy quickly, if you add too much it dumps the excess directly to the tray on first operation. I bought a special scoop to try to gauge how much litter to add and it’s still hit or miss.Issue #4 is that the device will malfunction and the app will not alert you in any way until you log back in and check it. My cats just spent a day using one unit like a regular litter box because the automatic clearance wouldn’t actuate.Issue #5 is that you can sign up for SMS alerts for $20 a month. What kind of cash grab is that?? I never bothered to see if that was per unit or a flat rate, I would never pay that ridiculous amount in either case.Overall the device is glitchy and requires constant monitoring to ensure it’s working properly. When I say constant, I feel like I need to open the app at least twice per day. Yes it’s nice to not have to scoop litter, but cleanup on the device is a hassle as well. The difficult cleanup wouldn’t be a problem if not for the other myriad of issues listed above. My recommendation would be to seek out a better brand unless you’re stuck to your budget.I plan on swapping these out for better devices in a year.
