Just how big are the holes? I use the CatGenie box which uses washable granules that are bigger than clumping litter grains.

Works beautifully! The big holes in this seem to be the perfect size for the little plastic pellets.

I use the regular size Nature's Miracle Disposable litter boxes, which fit nicely. The jumbo ones are too big. I have an issue with litter getting kicked out of the nightstand, however.

The sides of the Biddy Box are high (9 in) compared to other regular litter boxes. Some litter will be thrown even then. It's hard to know with a cat who likes to play in the litter (aren't they cute!?) if it gets really wild. The Biddy Box is better than any other I've used. Buy a little broom and dust pan to have nearby to clean up every time you clean out the box.

Hello, Sorry can't answer, got 2 of those only about a month ago. BTW, the plastic is NOT cheap, looks very sturdy. So far, I like them a lot - they are also pretty big and deep enough to keep most of the litter inside. Also, they are very easy to scoop - the surface is polished and crumps do not stuck at all (it depends also on what kind of litter you use, I use "Blue Buffalo").I can guess they'll last many years.

Our litter box is approx. 13"x18" and one 18 lb. bag is not enough to fill the box so that the urine does not go right through to the bottom. The one bag put 2 inches of litter in the box. I think 3 inches is better (for scooping ease), so I use one and a half of the 18 lb. bags when I'm doing a complete litter change. Every few days, I add more of the litter. My cat requires that I scoop his box at least four times a day, so I do go through the litter fairly quickly.

Definitely less. I have 2 cats using the same box and there is very little mess outside the box. Clean up is so much easier with the pellets than with traditional sandy litter.

Nope, my cat's box is 21x17...too big for the hamper. I never liked the idea of an enclosed litter box. Just too inconvenient for cleaning.

I use Tidy Cat clumping litter and so far have had no problems. I LOVE my litter champ. Just had to change the bag system for the first time....easier than I was expecting. Followed the directions, no problems.

It is pretty deep. I use clumping cat litter, similar to sand I believe and The only way it gets out is the cats kicking it out. Lid does snap on securely

This is a poop bag. If your cats clumps big pieces this product not so good. Opening is tight. Big clumps make mess.

Any clumping litter is good. I use Fresh Step. My cat did not like Arm and Hammer and Scop Away. He is rather fussy. I used both of those at one time or another and they served the clumping well. He just prefers Fresh Step. One thing i have learned with the Littermaid. Be sure the one you have has a litter bed appropriate for the size of your cat or you will have trouble with the litter clumping because the cat will be constantly urinating on the same wet area and it will not clump if he has no space to scratch and cover which is their natural instinct. I just realized that since I downgraded to a cheaper version of littermaid box and caught him not fitting in the box as he should. He puts is front paws on the back of the box in order to fit. As soon as I get enough money saved I am going to get him the $129 version that he originally had. I would checkl to see if your cat fits in the litter box comfortably so that he can scratch the litter when he is done and help the clumping process along.

I prefer clumping, it is easier to clean from the box, leaving remaining unused in the box. would recommend Tidy cat.

Yes - I've found the grates get clogged with clumping litter, especially if they pee near the sifter. We tried almost every kind of litter, but in the end we went with non-clumping crystal litter or as an alternative non-clumping clay. After the crystals are spent we take off the hood and tilt the box backwards into the waste bin. Then we refill with fresh litter. That's made the box well worth the price for us. We have 7 cats and this has cut down on litter box maintenance considerably for us. We own two of these plus our normal cat boxes. I much prefer cleaning this box to the others.

I love these and, yes, the kitty boxes are much deeper. What I do is first put a plastic draw-string cat pan liner (trash bag, basically) into the cat box. The bag won't work alone since kitties with claws poke holes in them. However, this hard plastic liner takes care of that problem. So I put the trash bag in, followed by the disposable tray, followed by fresh litter. THEN (the most wonderful part) changing the pan is as simple as closing up the bag with the draw strings which encloses the disposable pan and used litter. Dump the whole thing in the trash and voila - you're done! I have found that I need to trim about 1/2" off all the way around the lip of the disposable pan with my kitchen sheers for a better fit into the cat pan.

After some trial and error I found the BEST litter to use is Ultra/LitterPearls microcrystals! (I have 5 cats using this litter box and my visitors can't smell it!!). It absorbs great and they dont get scraped into the disposal hole by the scraper.

25" long x 19" wide x 8.5" deep It is huge and hold a lot of litter (making the clumping litter work better)At first I though it was too big and the cats might not like itI left one of the old types out and then added these. They stopped using the old type completely. Also since it is so deep, there is less litter kicked on the floor. Little kittens might have a problem at first, but the way they bounce and climb about, once they figure it our it would probably not be an issue.

Hi Samantha, I have the large size and just measured it. The bottom of the opening is 6" from the floor, and then the opening itself is 10" high and 9" wide. I also have 2 kitties, ages 4 and 5, the 5 year old can be cranky and doesn't really like change. Anyway, they've both only ever used uncovered litter boxes. We've used the LitterMaid, and regular ones, but all uncovered. I left out both regular boxes with the Omega Paw and let the old ones get dirty, took one away and let the other get dirty until I didn't see any "disturbance" in it. We've only had this litter box for about 9 days and both have completely adjusted. I don't know much about CH, and I'm sure any difference in height could make a big difference. Anyway, I hope that helps! And btw, I love this litter box!!
