My 3 year old Bengal boy is so skittish to the point where he can’t even stand a blanket out of place on the couch, he will jump up, see it and bolt lol. I was worried at first he wouldn’t like the new litter robot in the house.. I was wrong, he took right to it like he had been using it for years. The 5 is the best thing we have purchased in a long time. We are purchasing another one for him very soon!

Hey there, Jslay! Thanks so much for your review; we're so excited to hear that your kitty took to the Litter-Robot so quickly, and you are loving it as well! We're so happy to have you in the Whisker family!
This kitty potty is AMAZING. Its been about 6 months since purchase so I cant speak on longevity yet. This makes life so much easier for cat lovers. I would like to buy another just to have a spare. It comes apart so easy and you can really deep clean it. This is when the spare LR would be nice to have. My negatives would be that it would hold more litter where they "go" and the globe being a little bigger. I have 1 cat that is close to 20 lbs he makes do but he could use a touch more room.

Thanks so much for your review, Theresa! It's so exciting to hear that life has been so much easier without scooping! Here's to many more years with your Litter-Robot!
It really is everything that is promised! My cat took to it right away and it’s saved me so much scooping. It’s also great to monitor your cats health and weight.

Thank you so much for your review, Dani! We're thrilled to hear that you and your kitty are loving the Litter-Robot 5 and all of the insights it provides. Thanks for joining the Whisker family!
This piece might seem like something simple and in a way it is but the designers put a LOT of thought into it. It has a night light inside the globe that comes on in darkness. When it starts to cycle it will stop for a few seconds afyer a short distance as an extra failsafe to allow the cat to vacate in case of any malfunction. After the cycle it rotates past being level to allow litter to adjust in a level position before it rotates back into it's level position. After the cat has exited it will countdown on the screen to your desired time setting before the cycle begins and the robot has detected whether it's #1 or #2 and has made that adjustment prior to the cycle countdown. I've just barely started using ours and that's what I've discovered and known of those amenities are even advertised. That shows how much confidence the manufacturer has with this product. If you purchase this product, you won't be disappointed. I'm certainly not anyway. The litter hopper is the best add-on in my opinion and removes m

Thank you so much for your review, Little Squeak! It's wonderful to hear that the Litter-Robot 5 has been such a hit for you and your kitty! We're so excited to have you in the Whisker family!
I thought the hype was just that, hype. After setting it up my three kittens started using it immediately! They also like to watch the clean cycle and interrupt it quite a bit. Hopefully they grow bored of the clean cycle. Recommend the hopper too.

Thank you for your review, OneStarMac! We're so excited to hear that everyone is loving the Litter-Robot! We're so happy to have you in the Whisker family!
I own a Robot 4 that was giving me quite a few problems so I decided to upgrade and I am very happy I did. It runs so much better and I do not get any trouble messages. I have an elderly cat that has heavy urine eliminations when using the box, I was constantly getting notifications that paused the unit, not with Litter Robot 5. It preforms perfectly and tracking the weight of 4 cats is a lot more reliable. The display is definitely a big plus. I highly recommend Litter Robot 5.

Thank you so much for your review, Bernie! Our team is so excited to hear that the Litter-Robot 5 has been such a great fit for you and your kitties, it's wonderful to have you in the Whisker family!
We recently purchased the Litter-Robot 5. We have 3 cats, Sarabi (16.5 lbs), Kenji (12.5 lbs), and Scotty (7 lbs).
Pros: Very clean look. The app is easy to use, and I love that you can track the cats' usage and how full the litter bin is. Odor is trapped pretty well.
Cons: I do like that the litter box can track the cats, but it is not very accurate. With their differentiating weights, I feel that it should be able to distinguish which cat goes in the box. My biggest issue is the tray the litter empties into I feel should be larger. I am thinking we need to get another one and this would help.
Overall, I would recommend but will definitely update once we have had it longer and it gets more acclimated to our kitties!
