[@GirlNoNonsense]

@@user-yv2cz8oj1k imagine, the competition the "Litter Robot 4" sells for an insane 899€ xD

[@aurelienlux]

@@user-yv2cz8oj1k Robot litter boxes are a bit more complex than that, at least the good ones. There are many sensors and some have a fair amount of "computing" going on (for example the competitor Litter Robot can tell between multiple cats just using its various sensors so that you can track how often each of your fluffy companions use the toilet, which is actually handy to track their health, and you have access to all the relevant info as well as maintenance monitoring via an app and the Litter Robot itself can connect to your WiFi, some people have even integrated it in their smart home setup using Home Assistant for example). At the end of the day most people don't *need* an automated litter box but it can be a nice luxury if you can afford it, with some potentially handy health tracking benefits in some cases, and it also can solve the issue of normally needing as many litter boxes as cats, if not n+1, which isn't always practical if you live in an apartment or smaller house between the required space and the potential smell. And as these robotic litter boxes are constantly kept clean you normally only need one even if you have two or more cats.

[@aurelienlux]

@@GirlNoNonsense Yeah the Litter Robot models seem to have gone up in price with every generation, although according to reviews I've seen they've also improved every time and offer more and more features (for example afaik WiFi connectivity is now no longer an optional add-on but comes by default and there's an app which not only allows you to easily monitor if any maintenance is needed but it can for example also identify which of your cats is using it and track how often each of them use the toilet which is actually handy to track their health). The Litter Robot pricing also seems to be less steep in the US so unfortunately it seems it's one of these cases where European customers get a worse deal because of things like import taxes and lower supply. But the Litter Robot models usually seem to be some of the most popular and best reviewed options. The company also seemed to be in favor of the right to repair and unless it has changed they were selling spare parts, including for internal parts, on their site (although it's unclear if EU customers would also have easy access to the spare parts without having to jump through hoops and pay expensive shipping and import charges). But yeah at the end of the day it's more of a luxury product, with some potentially handy health tracking benefits in some cases, and it can also solve the issue of normally needing as many litter boxes as cats, if not n+1, which isn't always practical if you live in an apartment or smaller house between the required space and the potential smell (and since these robotic litter boxes are always kept clean you should only need one even if you have more than one cat).

I will say I’ve spent the $700 on litter robot and even with just two cat I will NEVER go back to a normal litter box. The simplicity of not having to scoop poop is great and it tells me when it’s full. I recommend a litter robot of any sorts to anyone I know with a cat

[@StiggyView]

My cats love this litter box. Took right to it with no issues and they are only 6 months old. It works really well with the Arm and Hammer Hardball litter

[@eliyang]

We have a Litter Robot 4. Works great 90% time. The issue is our cat seems to like to pee near the edge of the bowl rather than towards the middle of the litter pile. Due to the curvature of the bowl, there isn’t enough litter to clump properly so it ends up sticking to the bowl requiring a manual cycle/intervention. Annoying but everything else works great. No issues with his craps.

[@nork22]

A cat being named Neko... Reminds me of an old comic in NZ where a cat is named Horse and the main character, which is a dog named Dog.

[@rustler08]

This just sounds like a company that farms data as a source of income, and the stupid product is ancillary income. I will absolutely return any product that asks for precise location where it's clearly unnecessary.

[@Mooooov0815]

But it is clearly necessary. This thing is presumably setup using Bluetooth. Accessing Bluetooth communication is grouped under the location permission because it, in conjunction with WiFi and potentially GPS, can be used to refine tracking or enable proximity tracking. So the permission is legit, but the product is still dumb

[@Dracossaint]

​@@Mooooov0815 why would it need proximity tracking when it can accomplish the same goals with a scale?

[@Those_Weirdos]

@@DracossaintBecause you need to connect to it via Bluetooth. It's not actually using proximity, it's using a feature that COULD be used for proximity, so it's restricted in the same way.

The cat litter self cleaners seem expensive, but they are the best investments you can make . The amount of time and seamless maintenance and no more scooping and breaking your back is worth every penny. I own 2 units and enjoy it. Also, it absolutely prevents feline UTI which can save you 300-700 for visit and medication because there is always clean litter

[@ChipsAndWires]

I've had a Litter Robot 3 and a Litter Robot 4. The 4 is great: WAY quieter and easier to clean inside. That said, sometimes it does have occasional sensor issues. I have it attached to a smart outlet so I can "reboot" it if a cat stops the cleaning cycle and it doesn't start up again fast enough for my liking. (push notifications help)

we have a different version of an electronic litter box. works exactly the same way though, it's got a barrel that rotates to sift and dump the used litter into a bag as well. we have 3 cats and it's essential. my kids take turns emptying it when it's full, the cats are happy cause it's always clean, and all the smell is kept behind a trap door, it's much better than a standard box for sure.

So I just wanted to say thanks because the technical quality is top notch and your videos are interesting, chill and genuine. Big hug from Costa Rica.

The tracking can be useful to keep on top of some health issues. If your cat is using the litter box much more or much less than usual, it can be indicative of some health problems, like kidney stones or so.

And it needs location data to do that why?

My grandmother had two cats that were siblings. When someone asked what one cat's name was, she'd reply "Cat." When asked what the other cat was named, she'd say "Other Cat." This confused people and pleased her greatly. If we didn't have three cats, I'd really be interested, but investing $1500 in cat poopers is too much

[@KaijuAKD]

@@KaijuAKDThey do.

[@travellingslim]

It might just take some time to adjust but can't help but think it would have been smoother if the cat was sanctioned in another room during setup and only let him in after setting it up with litter and blocking the old one. That time where he got familiar with it and sat in it empty he probably thought it was a new sleeping/resting area which could have also lead to his confusion after of both doing his business in it and also using it as a resting area. Little awkward!

Just...no. Absolutely not. It's way too high off the ground for any kitty. The app, while tracking litter box habits may be helpful to a vet diagnosing a concern and the accuracy of the litter report is somewhat helpful, there are other options like cleaning the litter box with your hands hands and using your own eyes. My fluff uses the Scoop Free which you can set the timer for it to rake the litter box however, I wipe it down with litter wipes every other day along with scooping the "catch" and replace the trays every week. The price of this is outrageous also. This was surprising, Dawid, and while I'm thrilled you have a kitty, this was way different and glad you changed direction for a unique education. Gotta say though, not a litter box I'll be using. Thanks for covering it along with your beautiful fluff.
