MeoWant Self Cleaning Cat Litter Tray, Integrated Safety Protection Automatic Cat Litter Tray for Multiple Cats, Extra Large/Odor Removal/APP Control Smart Robot Tray with Mat & Liner

This was our third self-cleaning litter tray, all three having been purchased through Amazon. We had set ourselves a maximum budget of £200, as ultimately this was something we wanted mainly for the convenience. We knew £200 was at the lower end of the market, with the better-known and heavily marketed branded models often costing anywhere from £450–£700. This particular model was listed at £229. We added it to our basket and waited patiently, and within a few days Amazon offered a limited-time percentage discount, bringing the price down to £186. Having already tried two other self-cleaning litter trays, the main reason we chose this one was its side waste compartment and rotating cleaning design. Our first self-cleaning tray cost £129 and emptied the waste into a drawer underneath the unit. Unfortunately, during the cleaning cycle, the mechanism exposed a gap in the bottom of the litter area for around 15 seconds. Our cat apparently thought the cleaning cycle was great entertainment and would try to jump back inside while it was moving! This meant there was an opportunity for her to land directly in the exposed gap and dirty waste area. We considered this a potential safety risk and returned it, thinking perhaps it was simply a design issue with that particular model. We then purchased another model for around £160. Unfortunately, it used essentially the same underneath sliding-tray design and had exactly the same problem. During cleaning, a gap was again exposed in the bottom for long enough that our cat could potentially jump back inside and land in it. Despite the problems with those first two machines, by this point we were completely sold on the idea of a self-cleaning litter tray. The convenience is fantastic. The area around the litter tray stays much cleaner, there is virtually no lingering smell from faeces, and you don't have to immediately scoop the tray after every use. For an indoor-only cat in particular, it also gives you a lot more freedom. Combined with an automatic dry-food feeder, you can go to work, have a long day out or potentially be away overnight without constantly worrying about whether the litter tray needs cleaning. Third time lucky! This model solves the biggest issue we had with the previous two. Rather than opening a gap underneath and dropping the waste into a drawer below, the drum rotates and the clumped litter/waste empties into a compartment built into the side of the machine. That means that even if our cat decides to jump back inside during a cleaning cycle, there isn't the same exposed hole in the bottom for her to fall into. For us, that provides much greater peace of mind in terms of both safety and cleanliness. The machine itself also feels noticeably more robust than the cheaper models we tried. It looks and feels more premium, better made and generally more substantial. We've now had it for over two weeks and are extremely happy with it. It comes with an app that allows you to monitor things such as your cat's weight and litter-tray usage, which is a useful extra. It also holds a good amount of litter. We use Pets at Home Ultra Clumping Performance Litter, and approximately half a bag fills the machine. We currently do a complete litter change roughly every 7–10 days, while the waste bag in the side compartment generally needs changing every 3–5 days. Obviously, this will vary depending on your cat and usage. Overall, we're extremely happy with this self-cleaning litter tray. After two unsuccessful attempts with cheaper underneath-drawer designs, this really was third time lucky. It cost us more than the previous two, but in our experience it was absolutely worth spending the extra. At £186, it feels like an excellent compromise between the cheaper self-cleaning trays and the premium branded models costing £450–£700. Highly recommended, particularly if you're concerned about the exposed gap created by some of the underneath waste-drawer designs.

After researching quite a few self-cleaning litter trays, I decided to go with this one and I'm so glad I did. It has made a huge difference to daily litter box maintenance and has saved so much time. The automatic cleaning function works well, keeping the litter fresh throughout the day and reducing odours significantly compared to a traditional tray. One of the biggest positives is how spacious it is. I have a larger cat and there is still plenty of room for them to turn around comfortably. The safety features also give peace of mind, as the unit stops when it detects movement, so I don't have to worry about my cats using it. The app setup was straightforward and it's really useful being able to monitor usage, cleaning cycles, and litter levels from my phone. The odour control is much better than expected, and the waste compartment is easy to empty without any mess. The build quality feels solid and well designed, and despite looking quite high-tech, it's very simple to use. My cats adapted to it much quicker than I expected and now use it without any hesitation. The only thing to be aware of is that it takes up more space than a standard litter tray, but that's expected with any automatic unit and the benefits far outweigh that minor drawback. Overall, an excellent investment for cat owners. It keeps the litter cleaner, reduces smells, saves time, and makes life much easier. Highly recommended. 🐾😺

I bought this to replace an original litter robot, which I had for many years. When it stopped working, I looked at getting another one. The price had tripled since I bought it, so I trudged along with a “normal” litter tray for a while. Once I couldn’t stand the normal litter tray anymore I forked out for one of these Meowant jobs. Well, Meowant my money back now! Aside from all the other problems (some of which are listed below), it’s stopped working properly, less than 6 months in. It’s a decent idea (seems to be based on the litter robot…?) but poorly executed, that’s for sure. • Dirty/wet litter ends up falling out of the front, if it even moves off the silicon(?) liner on the base of the drum. Quite often I have to use a gloved/covered hand to lift it off the liner so it will actually be removed rather than just sitting there for multiple cycles 🤢 • The receptacle compartment is absolutely disgusting - wet litter gets into all the multiple crevices (which could have easily been covered by a smooth piece of plastic to make it easier to clean). It also doesn’t last more than a week for my solitary elderly cat, despite the product video - well and truly full by then, and in warmer weather it gets mouldy 🤢 • It’s terrible at odour control, the smells are horrendous despite the little “deodoriser” block that you attach to the receptacle 🤢 • It’s really awful to clean. Impossible to get all the wet litter off the receptacle “lid” and out of the receptacle compartment and all its little crevices 🤢 the wet litter gets everywhere in there • Wet litter also sticks to the roof of the drum and so merrily cycles around before falling back into the supposedly “clean” litter after it has cycled and gone back into position. I put up with it for so long because the return window had closed. But now it doesn’t cycle every time it’s used, so when my elderly cat is presented with unclean litter, she squats at the entrance and wees on the floor. I didn’t pay almost £300 to be cleaning cat pee off the floor and purchasing puppy training pads to make it easier to do so. Either that or I have to watch her like a hawk and make sure I manually trigger cleaning after she’s done her business. I’ve now returned it!

Amazing machine , works really well. Takes so much work out of having cats, I empty it every other day to every 3 , it weights the cat really well , and was able to notice a illnesss once because of this machine and was able to inform the vets of all his movements it's really good for cats health Highly recommend, I'm hoping the bottom rubber becomes replaceable in further designs as it seems to be breaking down but customer service are sending me a replacement so exactly what warranty is for , fantastic price fantastic build, supper user friendly. And looks so sleek compared to some

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely love this automatic cat litter box! I have two cats and this has made my life so much easier. It’s spacious, easy for my cats to use, and the automatic cleaning works really well. It helps keep the litter area much cleaner and reduces the smell compared with a normal litter tray. I also love the modern design—it looks neat and doesn’t feel like having a traditional litter box in the room. My cats got used to it quickly, and I’m really happy that I don’t have to scoop the litter several times a day anymore. Definitely worth it, especially for a home with more than one cat. 🐱🐱❤️ Highly recommend! 5/5 ⭐️

I’ve had this since Oct 2023. All four cats took to it straight away. Even the 12 year old deaf one. The internal size is good, my 22lb ragdoll fits in it easily. There was a little issue with the litter getting kicked out but I solved that by buying a lip from someone who makes them on Etsy. It’s quiet, easy to clean (unless you have water turned off by water board in the middle!). The top opening for dirty litter emptying is great, I noticed on the new style they use a band to hold in place rather than yellow plastic, I solved the issue of bag sometimes moving with a large elastic band. Although the litter collecting box isn’t huge, with 4 cats I empty every other day, not a big deal. The app is simple but works. No tracking as they provide a great mat. The safety features are amazing, no trapping your cat, stops when detects any movement, so don’t put it in a place where you have a lot of foot fall. I use good clumping litter and there’s no smell. If like me you don’t want to pay for a Litter robot, this is for you. It comes in a great box on delivery and it’s already assembled, you just pop the drum on base, plug in and away you go. There’s a great childlock feature (which was useful as one of my cats learnt how to press buttons). I can guarantee you this Meowant is life changing for you and your cat or cats. Go on you won’t regret it.

I got the litter tray after reading the reviews that were very positive. My experience has not been quite the same. The drum is heavy, not easy to clean, the litter spills around and the bag for the waste does not stay in place. For the money I paid I can only use half of the functionalities because the app does not work in my location. I found another one but I am not sure it’s the right one and I cannot connect the litter tray as much as I try. Customer service is not very helpful. The positive is that the cats didn’t mind the new tray and started using it quickly.

I bought this for my now 14 week old Bengal, and I'm please with it. He uses it without problems. Ive read that some people have issues with the cleanliness of the litter. I suspect that the problem with the litter type. After experimenting i settled on a more expensive, fine grained, corn litter "Worlds Best". It clumps well, and flows as the machine rotates. Because it lasts, the up front cost is acceptable. I don't believe heavier, clumpier litter would work well. I do find it smells after about 3 days, but im not sure why anyone would want to keep cat waste in their house for more than that length of time anyway. Its quick and easy to replace the waste bag. Im a bloke, so I put it together without reading the instructions. For once, this worked. Its simple to assemble. It comes with a mat to put in front, to trap scattered litter. It works reasonably well, but i wonder if one of the outside doormats with a metal grid would work better. I may experiment... No complaints about the app.. tells me when Leo uses it, and how long for. It also allows manual cleaning, levelling of litter etc. Update. Leo is 6 months old now, still uses it exclusively, using the same litter. I need to change the bag every other day, because it does smell. The waste storage is not even slightly airtight, and the deodorant block just has a nasty chemical scent. Its quite enclosed, so its difficult to see if the litter level is correct. I just shovel in a couple of scoops when I change the bag, and hope for the best. It was interesting to see how the machine monitored his weight, but it gave up at 3.1 kilos. Hes now 4 kilos. Overall it does the job, and there are far more expensive machines on the market, but I'm dropping 2 stars for smell, and weight inaccuracy.

Excelente, llevo ya unos meses con ella y me encanta, mi gatita viejita con cáncer la usaba sin problemas. Si está en proceso de limpieza, en cuanto detecta peso dentro o movimiento cercano, se detiene por completo por lo que nunca hubo algún accidente si mi gatita volvía a entrar o se tardaba en salir. A mi gatita chiquita también le gusta mucho y la usa sin ningún problema.

This is a great robotic litterbox that doesn't break the bank...as much as some other robotic ones. I'd give this a solid 8.5/10 vs. my experience with other robotic litter boxes. Pros: + IT WORKS! This is the most important part. All other features are add-ons & luxuries, but the core function is that it has to automatically scoop up the poop & pee while leaving behind the clean litter. In this aspect, it performs very very well. For reference - I use Arm & Hammer Slide litter. The drum rotates to move the cat litter through a net, which then filters out the solid stuff from the otherwise sand-like litter and deposits the waste inside a box with a liner bag. No waste or litter has gotten stuck on the net for me. + It's quiet. Quiet enough that I can only hear it when I'm in the same area as the litter box. Any significant noise that is generated is from the actual solids falling into the waste box. + App functionality. This is a WIP, clearly as updates are still being made. But current features allow you to track which cat is in the box via weight. If you have 2 cats of similar weight, it probably won't work that well. The app allows you to manually operate the box or set a time delay for when it should run after a cat has used it. I've found that 30 minutes post use is a good time. The default 1 minute setting was way too soon. + Storage. The waste box isn't huge, but it's large enough to store everything for a week from 2 cats, if necessary. But it'd be pretty full. I generally prefer to change the liner bags 2x a week, on trash days. Those tend to be 1/3 full. Liner bags that come from the manufacturer are lightly scented and have drawstrings. They work, but you could probably use another bag if you'd like, as there's a plastic component that keeps the liner bags in place and would be compatible with other bags too. + Odor. I have 2 cats, so you can imagine that quite a bit of poop and pee happens. I haven't smelled any of the odor. The lined waste bin is effective at keeping odor at bay. Though keep in mind a larger contributor to this is the litter that I use. + Price. The price is competitive relative to other robot litter boxes. It's not super cheap, but it isn't asking for $600-700 dollars that so many robot litter boxes are asking for...and still somehow won't work perfectly. Cons: - App keeps logging me out & forgetting my machine at random. I'd say this happens once a month. This is a minor annoyance more than anything else. I have the app on my iPhone, but basically I have to log back in every time and there is no Face ID sign-in. You'll have to type your username (email) & password every time. Then, the app randomly forgets the litter box machine too, so I'll have to reconnect them. It's a quick process, but is annoying. I hope this will be addressed in future updates. The good thing is that all your previously set parameters remain, so the machine will still operate as usual. I only really access the app to trigger a manual clean, usually right before I tie the trash and take it out. You can do this in the app or by clicking the first button from left to right, on the base (I use my toe for this). I'm docking 1 point for this as it's an inconvenience that should be addressed. - Litter tracking. The opening to the litter box is relatively low, probably for ease of entry for even older/larger cats. This is good for futureproofing as our cats will inevitably get older. However, that also means that it's very common for some litter to get pushed out of litter box if your cat decides to do some intense digging. The cats will definitely track litter. Do note that the machine comes with a small litter tracking mat. I've alleviated most of this by using a large litter tracking mat. They should offer a small insert to snap onto the entry to prevent litter tracking. For this I'm docking 1/2 a point. As you can see, there are a lot more pros vs cons and most importantly the cons are not deal breakers. No core functionality is lost with the cons I've listed. Many other robot litter boxes cost more, and still somehow mess up on core functions. At least, with this box, it'll get the most important job done - cleaning the litter when needed without fuss. I've had this box for a few months now and it's been great - so much so that I bought a 2nd one to make life easier.

Easy set up, our cat adopted it very quickly. We couldn't use the app, because it says that it's not available in Australia. But nevertheless, we don't need it as much.

Edited review: Company contacted me after leaving the review asking me if i wanted a refund, or replacement product. Shocked to say the least. I left before 3 stars, see review below, not the worst review. However after speaking with them and explaining the problem, they sent me a new drum. And since the new drum is installed i no longer have a sticky lid. Works fine, opens normally. I in the meantime have tried out plenty of litter, and found the best one. now i no longer need to clean the whole box everytime. Its stays nice and clean, cats love it. And i love the low maintenance! Also you use waaaaayyy less litter. Very happy with purchase! Litter box works fine, cats like it. But changing the bag is a pain! The lid keeps getting stuck, trying to open it is like a 15 min job of just banging on it. The litter gets stuck in the opening of the closure, and the closure is a push button system. That when litter is stuck in it, cant be pushed to open. It drives me mad. Also 4/5day MAX with 2 cats for 1 bag change. But the whole inside drum and lid of bin needs a full lysol/bleach clean. Not a bad machine overall, except the waste bag compartment

Makes cleaning up after your cats super easy! We have two cats, and you can never smell the litter box which is always an issue in a small house. I’ve had multiple people enter my home and not even realize that there was a litter box right down the hall. Customer service is fantastic and they get back to you in a timely manner! All the accessories that you need are also easily accessible after your original purchase. 10 out of 10 recommend this product to anyone thinking of getting an automatic litter box.
