It is great! I have THREE cats, so I clean out the box daily. It allows you to put the litter droppings into a closed genie with a plastic bag in it. Once full, you can tie off and remove the full bag and replace immediately with a new one (comes in a refill system). Very easy to use, works great!!

The container is excellent there are cartridges that have the bag system in it. I have 2 cats and I tie up the bag weekly. The cartridge lasts about 1 month and there is no odor from the container. It has saved on plastic bag usage and odor

Bought it for my daughter. They have 2 cats and she dumps it every 2 weeks. She says there is no odor and it is absolutly the best. Bags easy to refill and genie easy to clean.

I assume that you mean the disposable liners,I'm still using the one it came with. I have one cat also and I change the liner once a week on trash pickup day,though I never have noticed an odor with it. Personally I love it.

I recently purchased this and we have 1 cat , We remove the bag every 2 weeks and discard it . There is no odor @ all. I scoop the box a few times per day and we love this thing it keeps the smell contained inside. Highly recommend this!!!

It is fantastic. I have a multiple cat household and I only change the bag every three weeks. In the recommendations from the manufacturer states that with one cat you would only have to change the bag every two to three months. It doesn't smell up your house either. I am considering getting another one for the upstairs. I give it a 5 star rating.

I have 4 cats (3 adults and a kitten) and I clean daily. I change the bags out when they get full. It entirely depends on the cats. And with me it varies from once every two days to once every three days. Genie is very easy to use. I LOVE IT!

One refill lasts quite a while. I have just one cat and I'm already been using the first refill for over two months. I empty the Genie every two weeks when my trash goes out. You merely pull on the plastic bag so you have enough plastic to tie it in a knot. Then just throw it in the trash. You knot the bottom of the clean plastic in the Genie and you're all set to start filling it again. Don't be intimidated, it's a cinch to use!

I have 2 cats and I only have to dump mine about once every 2 weeks. It really is a great product. Works great for me. I live in a small house family of 3. Don't hear half as many complaints since I've started using the Litter Genie Plus so I'm happy!

Is the smell from the pad or the pellets? I don't notice anything...but only 1 cat, change the pad 1x a week, and change the pellets 1x month. With more cats, need to change everything more often, or have more than one box (w/ 2 cats, I had two boxes, but maintained the 1x week/1x month schedule).

I have had one for 3 months now with no issues. I have extended both pipes to 16foot (water(smooth) and drain(ribbed)). the drain pipe runs at floor lvl. then up about 3-4foot to the drain and has 2 connection in it. for easy to clean if anything gets stuck in it. The water pipe has a cut of vale where it connects to the mains. after my setup i done one dry run. and everything worked and lasted around 20-30mnis. the 2nd run i put in what was left over in the old cat tray (around 5 big bits of you know what) and it picked them all up and flushed them all away with out any problems. I have not had one issue from the unit apart from the pellets do seem to get everywhere but it is wooden floors and we do not have a mat at the unit. but no problem for us. We have not had any smells but thus far not had any left overs when the dry unit kicks in. well to what i have seen but i don't watch it when it does it work. some times when i walk in to the room that has the unit i see the cat on the shelf watching it clean away. both cats used this unit within 2 days but the old cat litter tray was in bad shape and one of the cat has an issue to use the carpet if the litter tray is bad. this is why we get this unit. as we can both h8 cleaning the old litter tray out.

I change it once a month. I have 3 cats and 1 dog. Fill up the tank every other day.

Use one bag per litter box and change it once a month. We thought it would not be enough, but it is fine. We have two breeze litter boxes, one per cat, and have not had any issues with the recommended amount. We do recommend scooping every day, and it is not as difficult as it sounds. Hope this helps.

I don't like looking for the cat bombs, so I use a system a friend showed me of going to local $ store and buying a bunch of aluminum roasting pans that fit the litter boxes, putting litter in the disposable pans, and placing that in the litter tray. About once a week or thereabouts I just place the whole disposable pan in a trash bag, rinse and repeat. Very fast and easy with no odor problem.

I've had it for about 4 months with no issues. There is usually only an odor when its been used, waiting to cycle. Not sure if it's litter related but I have 2 cats & use Arm & Hammer Clump & Seal litter, it works great. Could there be feces stuck somewhere inside that needs to cleaned out... Good luck!

We actually use potty pads in the unit (under the grass) so we just replace those every day or every two days and then no need for emptying. It's just our preference, but without those, you would need to tip it over or take apart to hose it out.

We've been using ours for over a month, and today was the first time. There were 3-4 small pieces of feces that fell through the scoop. I fished them out with the old litter scoop, and problem solved. We've run it roughly 4 times a day for 35 days...140 times with no smell. Once in a blue moon it'll happen, I can live with that. -I just turned on the exhaust fan and closed the door.

My pail has only been in use for a few weeks. I bought it to donate to the humane society. My only problem was the size of it. It was a vary small pail for the price I paid. But it is of vary high quality. I only hope they have found use for such a small pail.

At least 2. I'd start with one on each floor or end of the house, observe, and gage the possible need for a third. Might be fine. I've had one unit work for 2 cats without issue, and the more cats you have, the more frequent you can set the cleaning cycle. Since its not usable while it's "flushing" though, you'll definitely need 2.

Just curious how often you were cleaning the litter and how often you are changing it (and how many cats) that the smell is too much for the filter?

I love mine and have no problems with it. I would gage how often you need someone to come by based on how often you empty it while you are home, because all cats are different. I have one cat and only have to empty about every three days

I change the HEPA filters and the filter about every 2 months. We have 2 cats, 1 dog and tend to also get a lot of dust in the home. I'd recommend taking out the prefilter maybe every other week and just basically shaking it out or slapping it to get the larger dust balls and dander off. But of course it will all depend on just how much dust/dander you tend to have in your home. I purchase the replacement filters here on Amazon as well and they are much cheaper here than at a big box store. I'd absolutely recommend this air purifier though, works great and I've had it for at least 7 months. Hope this helps I change the HEPA filters and the filter about every 2 months.

I usually change every few weeks and I have one cat. There has never been an overflow issue. When activated the trap door opens and solid waste is "raked" in. The flap then closes over the waste and the rake returns to the opposite side.

Mine goes about a week, so I clean it and replace the water on weekends. The water is always clean when I change it. I use Brita water to fill it up. I have one, small cat, and I see him use it frequently.

I have the same problem if I don't dump after each potty. I use less litter than recommended so there isn't as much to get soggy. That sort of works. I'm getting ready to use the crystal litter to see if that helps. I'll update after I try it. The unit is pretty easy to disassemble so I take the grate off and wash it off too. I clean the entire unit once a month with disinfectant and dry it. It still beats the littermaid for me.
