 Works Great!Sep 07, 2008
Very pleased. I have ownd a Littermaid for the past 8 years and have found this product to be a great time saver. My cat never has a dirty litter box and I use a great deal less litter. This is my second littermaid in 8 years. the first one was no longer auto cleaning and required a manual reset to get the cleaner to run. I beleive the sensor was bad. I was tired of having to remember to reset it so I bought another one. Definately worth the money!
 Don't waste your moneySep 06, 2008
I love my cat, but let's face it cleaning his litter box is not the highlight of my day. I finally decided to splurge and get this automatic self-cleaning litter box. Big mistake.
1. The box was missing half the parts (scoop, cleaning brush, and filters).
2. The assembly instructions are HORRID. It took FOREVER to assemble this thing. Seriously, they need to spend a little money to get someone to write intelligent instructions.
3. The product can be used with batteries or plugged in. I needed it to use the batteries but the battery part didn't work. So, to use it I had to set it in the doorway of kitties litter room in order to reach the outlet. Obviously that wouldn't work, but it didn't matter because...
4. The product didn't even work. I used the recommended litter and still it wouldn't work. It ran continuously and jammed repeatedly. No way was kitty going in there with a fork attachment coming at him.
The only good thing I can say about this product is that I kept my receipt and returned it for a full refund. I'll just continue scooping litter the old fashion way.
7 years and counting!Aug 23, 2008
I bought the LM900 at a yard sale 7 years ago for $5!- I've learned a few tricks over the years to get the most out my bargain. This is not a totally maintenance free box - you have to treat it nicely! We have three large Wegies - OMG! Do you know how big the badders are on those babies? Clumps the size of boulders, I tell you! I use scoopaway litter, though it does sometimes get stuck in the corners. To prevent sticking, I use a light coating of heavy duty silicone spray on the bottom of the (clean)box, rake and track. Voila, problem solved! Also, you may have seen the ads for the cart (Litterwo***)to put your littermaid onto. Being the bargain conscious Mom that I am, I did not spend the $100+ for that cat waste marvel. I put my littermaid on a small(kid)table in the laundry room. I cut the bottom out of a receptacle and used duct tape to firm up the sides of the receptacle. Next, I used a heavy duty shopping bag (UnderArmor- perfect fit) and folded the top over the receptacle lip. Secure bag to receptacle with duct tape. Cut the bottom of the bag open. Use another thin piece of duct tape across the edge of the box to hold the receptacle in place (only to the edge, not flapped over into the box). Slide the box so that your new chute hangs off the end and run it into a small trash can lined with a quality Target shopping bag - (Walmart bags rip). All the clumps automatically go into your now huge receptacle, easily emptied by a small child! (Smart thinkin' huh?) Just give it a looksie every couple of days and add more litter, sending aforementioned small child in to replace Target bags. Bonus- you no longer have to buy $12 a box receptacles! For now we're planning eldercare for this box - do I hold the record for longest owned box? When it dies we will replace it with the same model - whatever the price.
It works, but...Aug 20, 2008
The rake is difficult to clean. If your cat has hard little turds, buy it. If the fecal matter that you have to deal with is soft or runny,its easier to scoop.
LitterMaid LM900 Self-Cleaning Litter Box "Old Style"Aug 19, 2008
I just purchased my 2nd LitterMaid LM900 Self-Cleaning Litter Box Old Style. My first one worked great for 7 years without any problems until now. My cats used it to death. Dont get me wrong you still have to tend to the litter box on a daily basis but its low maintenance when you compare it to scooping out a stinky litter box several times a day. You need to add litter when it is running low, change the waste receptacle when it is full, clean up a little bit of litter that scatters on the floor, and clean the rake and box as needed. I purchased waste receptacle liners for mine. These are small liners aka plastic bags that fit into the waste receptacle so I can be reused. Boy do they save some time & money!
I also have one of the Littermaid LME9000 Elite Mega Self-Cleaning Litter Box New Style is a total waste of money. I purchased it from Pet Smart about a year ago for $160.00 dollars. I figured that I would give the "new & improved" box a try b/c I was so happy with my old one. Boy was I wrong. I don't recommend purchasing this product at all it is the biggest waste of money. It make so much noise when it rakes the litter box, doesnt scoop up all the used litter (even when using a premium clumping litter), and it makes a mess all over the floor when it drops the litter clumps into the waste receptacle. In addition to the extremely expensive litter box not working properly as advertised the rake broke while in use. One of the side wheels that is located on the side of the rake, that sits in the inside track which allows and guide the rake to clean the box broke off. Contacted customer service and was advised that if I want a replacement rake I would have to purchase one even though the litter box is barely a year old. This just added insult to injury. I already spent $160.00 for a unit that doesn't work properly and now have to pay an additional $18.00 dollars plus shipping to replace a part. That's just a bunch of Poop.
Over all I'm very happy with the LitterMaid LM900 Self-Cleaning Litter Box "Old Style" especially when I compare it to the Littermaid LME9000 Elite Mega Self-Cleaning Litter Box "New Style". If you are considering purchasing a Littermaid Self-Cleaning Litter Box please do your homework and read the product reviews. I personally would stay away from the new style units they are extremely expensive and don't work.
I purchased my new one on Amazon and received free super saver shipping. The litter box was delivered in just a few days.
