Interested until read about liners. Yuk! But lots of people don't even use them. Just curious what's the point of the liners?

The cardboard liner box fits in the bottom and makes it easier to lift out and clean. The liner boxes are more expensive than I would have thought for cardboard. So I cover the liner box with a litter bag (31") and install it. The bag protects the box which then provides mechanical support when removing. Just dispose of the litter bag when it needs to be changed and reuse the cardboard liner.

Actually, I do use the liners. I guess the point of the liners is that it keeps any fluid from touching the plastic. Plastic can hold odors even when washed and cats do not like odors. Eventually, if you keep using the box without a liner it will hold odors that you cat will deem strong enough to think the box is dirty ...even when clean. I follow the guidelines on the liner and fill the litter to the line. The litter is pretty deep so for the most part nothing really reaches the liner except when the litter gets low and then it may a little bit. I think people who say it gets soggy let it go a little too long. The directions say to change out the litter completely every now and then, but I do not do that. I just keep the litter very clean and continue to add new fresh litter as it gets used up-- keeping the box quite full of litter. The trick to keeping the litter ultra clean is to NOT use a kitty litter scoop but instead use a litter scoop intended for smaller animals (like rodents)... the holes are smaller and will help to get every bit of non-clean litter in the box.

They're actually a pretty great idea, unless you have cats (like mine) who like to dig, and dig, and dig, until they get to the bottom of the box! I think for most people it would be fine. The idea is that you can easily replace old litter by lifting out the liner. You'll know if the liners will work for you, if you don't have to scrape the bottom of the box to remove stuck on pee! If you do, you'll find that the pee disintegrates the liner.

My previous litter box didn't have liners, so when my cat scratched the bottom, it became very grimy. The liner prevents that and generally makes changing litter easier. I can lift the liner and litter out and throw them all away at once then wipe down the inside, and I find that to be a lot cleaner.

I use mine for bathroom stuff. No liners. I cut a tile of thin linoleum to fit the bottom.

I do not have liners, and this box doesn't really need one.. the sides and bottom are very slick and nothing sticks to them.. it's an awesome littler box.. hope that helps..

They do in fact come with the liners. When I received mine they were all brand new.

I wouldn't recommend for your particular model, although it is very difficult to find. You could search generic liners always solve :D

Mine didn't come with liners. And I wouldn't bother investing any more money in what's a pretty shoddy product.

I wouldn't consider using it without a liner. Costco has the perfect waterproof liners.Maybe Amazonealso has, but I haven't researched it.

It doesn't come with a liner. I'm not very domestic so it didn't occur to me to get a liner and it seems fine without. My roommate did once ask if I intended to get one but I never really understood why I'd need one,

Also, instead of the liners that you can buy for these diapers, I use poise adult liners. For me they work much better and absorb more than liners made for the diapers.

You have to buy a the liner separate. It is well worth it. Liner goes on and off very easily. You will not regret it, well worth the price!

A liner would make it completely opaque. Without the liner, it's kind of frosted or translucent.

I do not use liners with this box. I plan to use this disposable box for just one weekend when we were at a wedding but our cats love it so much I have just let them use it. They have three boxes and prefer the disposable box. Not sure why.

I have owned this litter box for over 6 months and I have NEVER used bag liners. Personally, i think bag liners just get scratched up and do more harm than good. So yes, you can. However, the purpose of bag liners is to keep the litter sanitary and clean - I would definitely be sure to clean the litter often so feces don't stick to the bottom or anything like that. - Heather

I've used paper before, but never the silicone liners. Might be worth a try. You can also skip the paper liners with muffins--they hold up well without them!

the same liner that's in the picture.Edit: I didn't know it was optional. I'd recommend getting the liner if it is.

Does not come with liners, have seen some deals with liners, but generally they do not .

I think it depends on what type of pool you have. We have a gunnite pool and it is subject to "scarring" so the little foam end piece helps to prevent that. I don't know if it would be needed for a liner pool. Note that they send several in the pack. I agree with the other answers as well.
