thank you for this video!!! it's so thorough and not a lot of people know about the catlink 😭 much appreciated!!!

Thank you, this review is so helpful!

Very helpful, Litter Robot costs way more than the Scooper in Australia, so it was great to see comparisons and see they perform pretty similarly, I'd been eyeing off the litter robot for a few months, but this has swayed me to pull the trigger on getting the scooper!

Thank you for this review.

Thanks for the info!❤

Thank you for such an in depth review. I was looking at the scooper young because it can use tofu pellet litter. Our cats currently use pine pellets and I think it’d be easier to transition to tofu pellets. I didn’t want to use clay litter with the litter robot and I’ve heard using nonclay litter voids the warranty

Muchas gracias, me has ayudado mucho; agradezco la traducción de KZfaq. Estoy bastante indecisa aún con el arenero automático.

I've had a Litter Robot 3 for nearly 4 years. I've used it with four cats. During that time I ended up having to replace two sensors, the entire base, and the circuit board behind the buttons. Now the globe doesn't rotate smoothly in the base, it moves up and down out of its track during cleaning cycles. This sometimes causes the cycle to stop, and the only way I can fix it is to physically unplug the litter box and plug it back in. Pressing the power button has no effect. On average I had to unplug/plug it back in several times per day, before I got a second litter box. But to be honest, no automatic litter box will last forever with four cats, especially since one of them weighs close to 20 lb. So a few days ago I bought a Catlink Luxury Pro from Amazon Canada. I found that the Pro was several hundred dollars cheaper than the standard model, because the standard model was shipped from the US and the Luxury Pro was shipped next day from Amazon in Canada. I almost bought the standard model, thinking it was the higher end model because of the price. So if you're buying one from Amazon make sure you check where it's shipped from. Re the Catlink app, it's not available everywhere yet, at least not for Android. It's available for iOS. I couldn't find it on the Play Store, so I contacted Catlink. They responded within 24 hours and told me it should be available in a couple of weeks. I ended up going to an APK download site and downloading the Catlink APK to install on my phone. The app allows you to do almost everything you can do with the buttons, and to track your cats' usage of the litter box. It shows you if there's enough litter in the box and if the drawer needs to be emptied. You can create accounts for each of your cats, including adding a photo if you wish. First you have to take note of who's using the litter box and how much they weigh (from the app notifications), then you set up a cat account and include the weight. After that it recognizes each cat by its weight. I've already learned from the app that two of my cats are refusing to use the new box. If you're like me and have old cats (mine are all over age 10) it's handy to be able to monitor their weights and bathroom habits, for example to check for diabetes or kidney issues. The Luxury Pro is extremely quiet while it runs its cycle. Mine is located only a few feet from my recliner and I can't hear it at all. I rely on the app notifications to see if it's being used. I think my two cats don't want to use the new box because the opening is up high. They're used to the step on the Litter Robot 3. I want to buy the Catlink ramp, but it's expensive and I want to test the Luxury Pro for a while first. Urine leakage is my only concern about the Luxury Pro. It seems to have a good barrier on the opening, but I have a cat who dribbles urine on both sides of the LR 3 rubber barrier, and I want to make sure I won't end up with a mess like with a previous box I returned. The Litter Robot 3 has an ingenious rubber barrier which directs any urine leakage back into the globe, and any spilled litter falls back into the globe during the cleaning cycle. I didn't upgrade to the LR 4 because there have been complaints about its inferior barrier.

Hi, thank you for this review! Are you still using the catlink scooper young? I want to know how it's holding up so far.

The weight sensor on the Catlink seems prone to failure - my first one failed after around 5 months. The warranty service sent a new base to replace it. The new one worked for around 4 months before failing again. This means it fails to detect my cat, and no longer triggers automatically. I can trigger it manually from the app or the panel and that still works, but it is quite frustrating. This seems to be a relatively common failure since on Facebook this is the main complaint about the product, and Catlink has posted a video on how to replace their weight sensor.

Is there a reason why you switched from the Luxury Pro to the Young? I'm looking at the Luxury Pro because it tracks multiple cats. Does it also record their weight on the app?

My cat is about 13 pounds, he uses a standard size tidy cats Breeze system and he does okay w the size. Do you think he would fit in the catlink?

I decided to buy the Catlink brand; however, what is the difference between Luxury Pro vs Young?

Hi, thanks for your review! Can you please provide us with an update? How has it been with the Catlink? Is there any problem that you face along the way? Any leakage or system error? I'm considering to buy it in the near future, I just want to consider the potential problems (if there is any). Thanks!

My Cat Link litter box was just delivered and I’m setting it up now. Hopefully I have a lot of good luck with it. Have you found any comparable bags for the chamber? That was my main worry in going with this brand.

Can you tell mee how the accessories catlink smart deodorizer wroks?it comes with a charge cord (no plug) and no instructions. I know we're it go's in the bottom drawer.

What BRAND of litter works best in Cat Link Young?

I almost want to buy this for my future roommate(old friend) so i dont have to deal with any smells lol

Is it easy to clean the inside of the dome?

I saw a conversation on Reddit about issues people were having with the Litter Robot 4 (not this one you're reviewing). Due to the 4 coming out recently, they said the customer service has been terrible in trying to get help with the 4's issues (usually litter robot customer service is great). The price is around $700 (yikes). Now I'm wondering if I should just get the Litter Robot 3, or the catlink. Also, my kitty is 16 yrs old and has arthritis, so he'd have trouble getting in a box that's high up. Not sure about the litter robot, but w the step, the catlink looks like it would be okay. Also I love the litter catching feature of the step. Any advice greatly appreciated as it's a big purchase.

Why can't you use it with silica gel litter?

That poor cat is going to start complaining about his privacy rights being violated ;-)

i just ordered the catlink one

Greeting What would you buy? Petkit Catlink

Left one looks like a cochi mewo mewo

Máy xài mới 2 năm mà liên tục bị hư mạch điều khiển (2-3 tháng hư 1 lần) vì khí Ammonia của nước tiểu mèo, mà bao năm rồi nhà sản xuất vẫn ko khắc phục đc tình trạng đó. Nhà phân phối Mèo Phi Hành Gia bên Q.7, HCM nói chuyện lất xất và rất thiếu trách nhiệm, đổ thừa do nhà mình nhiều mèo nên máy mới hư. Đem máy đi sửa mà 5-10 phút kỹ thuật gọi lại 1 lần thông báo HÌNH NHƯ ... HÌNH NHƯ hư hết món này đến món kia. Mọi người cân nhắc khi mua nha.

Not including the step is a deal breaker at that price

So silly these things. A toy is not a sticky smudge of poop or pee stuck to the plastic. And talk about making your cat neurotic. And does a person really know how much a cat should drink? Tech for tech is no real help. And just makes everyone neurotic.
