B385 Automatic Cat Litter Box

First, I have to admit I'm a gadget guy, so this was right up my alley. I just adopted a cat (I haven't had one in a long time). It was a spur of the moment thing, so I didn't have a litter box. I did have one of those aluminum turkey roasting pans though, and fortunately had some containers of litter I keep in the car for winter-type driving in case I get stuck.That actually worked fine, but I had to change it twice a day. I saw this and decided to splurge. It hooked up to my wi-fi on the first try. Like most newer models, my router supports both 2.5 and 5 ghz, so no worries about it working with 2.5.It took my cat a little while to get used to it. For the first 3 days I kept both boxes out. Then, for the next three, I left this one out by itself during the day and both at night, because I didn't quite trust my cat would use it and didn't want to find pee or poop somewhere else in the morning. Next day, I bit the bullet and put the other one away. He uses it now, no problem. I used the app to set it to clean 10 minutes after he uses it so there's no chance he will be around and get scared. Couple of things: 1st, you need to check it about every three days. The pan in the bottom is a good size, but the machine only drops it in the center, so every time it cleans it drops one on top of the other. You can do a couple of things. You can pull it out and spread the stuff around, or you can replace the bag then. I prefer the latter because, no matter what, if you leave used litter out too long, it will smell.2nd, the bags that come with it are not the size of regular kitchen garbage bags; they are much less deep, which is perfect for the pan. Unfortunately, they are cheap. The ties built into it to close it are very flimsy. At least for me, when I try and pull them tight enough to fully close it, they break, and I end up having to put that bag in a regular garbage bag. So, I've just been using regular kitchen bags. 3rd, my big disappointment. This is my only Tuya ito (internet of things) device, so it only gives me basic info about this litter box (when the cat used it, when it started cleaning, when it finished, and the cat weight). It does not send you a message when the cat is using it, which I would like to know. It can, but you have to pay $20+ a month. That subscription is really for people who have a bunch of items hooked up (lights, etc.), and it gives you lots of control over those devices. Why they couldn't have included messaging in the basic section doesn't make sense to me; it costs nothing. It may be a small thing, but it was important to me.Final thing: it's not 100% perfect, and I don't see how it could be. Sometimes my cat pees near the edge and it doesn't get all the way into the litter to form a full clump, so I need to use a small brush to brush it off the small amount of wet litter. But, this doesn't happen often, so it's not a biggy for me. I'm glad I bought it.Update- So, above I said you have to watch the pan because everything drops to the center and doesn't really spread out. I was wrong, that was a one-off. Turns out I hadn't checked it enough that one time and it had filled up too much, so even though it had spread out, there wasn't room for new ones to spread out. It was my fault. I don't want anyone to not buy this amazing machine because I said that. The rest of my review is accurate.

Product is amazing. I love everything about it. My only issue is my cats ripped a hole and now when it does a cycle clean all the clean litter falls out.

It’s working well now. But initially, it was unclear how much litter to add; and it would get stuck in a sideways position in the middle of the cleaning cycle. The only way to get it out of that position was to run the emptying cycle from the Tuya app, which dumps all the litter into the lined drawer beneath. The instructions say there is a fill line, but even with a flashlight and my reading glasses I didn’t see one. I filled it so that the gray “fabric” part was covered using the Arm & Hammer Platinum Slide cat litter. But apparently that was too much or too heavy, and it would get stuck mid-cycle. So I kept removing litter and running a cleaning cycle until it finally didn’t get stuck. I’ve since bought the Tidy Cat Light Weight Clumping litter; and so far so good.

I can’t recommend this Self-Cleaning Automatic Litter Box enough!!I just bought the Self-Cleaning Automatic Litter Box from WorkZen Interiors, and I couldn’t be more excited about it! Honestly, this litter box has completely changed how I take care of my cats, and I’m so happy with my purchase.First off, let’s talk about how amazing the self-cleaning feature is. Before I got this litter box, I used to spend a lot of time scooping and sifting through the litter every day. It felt like a never-ending chore! But with this automatic litter box, I can finally say goodbye to that hassle. The self-cleaning system works like magic! It keeps the litter fresh and clean, so my cats always have a nice place to do their business. I love how I can just sit back and relax, knowing that the litter box is taking care of itself.Another great thing about this litter box is the odor control. We all know that cat litter can sometimes smell pretty bad, but this box does a fantastic job of keeping my home smelling fresh. The odor control system neutralizes any unpleasant smells, making my living space feel so much more inviting. I can have friends over without worrying about cat odors lingering around. It’s such a relief!I also really appreciate how eco-friendly this litter box is. It helps reduce the amount of litter I waste and cuts down on how often I need to change it. This not only saves me money but also makes me feel like I’m doing something good for the environment. It’s a win-win! Plus, the sleek design means it fits in nicely with my home decor. It doesn’t look out of place, and it gives my cats a comfortable and private space.Safety is super important to me, especially when it comes to my furry friend. BCHARYA has thought of everything with this product. The sensors are designed to detect when my cats are inside the box, which means the cleaning cycle won’t start until they are out. This gives me peace of mind, knowing he’s safe and sound.Here’s a little tip for anyone who gets this litter box: make sure to remove the tape from the sensors/feet at the bottom of the unit before using it! I totally forgot to do this at first, and it caused a bit of confusion. Once I took off the tape, everything worked perfectly, and I was so relieved!One more pro tip for you, if you have heavy shag carpet, get an 18” x 18” ceramic tile to place the unit on. It helps with the weight sensors having it sit on a hard surface rather than the carpet.In conclusion, I can’t recommend the Self-Cleaning Automatic Litter Box enough. It’s easy to set up, simple to maintain, and has so many great features that make it worth the investment. If you’re looking for a way to make life easier as a cat owner, this litter box is the way to go. I’m so happy with my choice, and I think you will be too!

Had it for quite a while now and the only problem i have is finding the perfect litter for it. All kinds i have tried have gotten in between the turning box and the shell, luckily it hasn’t affected the rotation feature but still, a bummer to clean all the time. Other brands stick to the bottom silicone if the box and are annoying to clean off. Cleaning the whole Robot (thoroughly) does take longer than plain box and scoop but you wouldn’t have to clean it -as-often as box and scoop. Kitty has had no problems adjusting to the Robot either. Noise is level 6.5/10 ,it’s loud enough to hear it rotate, and hear things drop into the trash ,but quiet enough to sleep through. The trash holds A LOT and the app is finnicky in a way that it’ll say it’s full and you can still get a good day out of it, or it’ll say “not enough litter”, and when it rotates litter falls everywhere bc it’s already TOO full. It’s still useful in letting you know your cats weight and when to change things out but just beware after a few test runs you’ll figure out how much you actually need(for the brand of litter you use) and not use the recommended ,same goes for the alerts on litter and trash . Overall love it and only have to break my bones to clean it every so often and not everyday/few days.
