Product Description
CatGenie, the world's only self-flushing, self-washing cat box. You'll never scoop, touch or change litter again. The CatGenie Secret?... Washable Granules, not litter. Collecting cat waste in a box of litter is unsanitary. Cleaning the mess out is unpleasant. To satisfy a cat's need to dig and cover, CatGenie uses comfy, permanent Washable Granules instead of disposable litter. To cats, it's just like using a clean litter box. CatGenie is more than a cat toilet it's a modern appliance. Every day, it automatically flushes just cat waste completely out of the home. Then washes itself clean. You never scoop, touch or change litter. CatGenie is cat sanitation that is as clean as a cat. Unlike all litter boxes, only CatGenie automatically: The GenieHand scoops and separates solids, which get liquefied and flushed along with liquid waste for safe, easy drainage out of the home.

 Works as advertised... but one of my cats won't use it November 20, 2008
I have two cats, and one took to the box fine. The other, however, refuses to use it, and took to urinating everywhere else in the house. The plastic litter pellets are significantly different from standard cat litter - so if you've got finicky cats, watch out.
 Cat Genie Customer Service is horrible! November 20, 2008
When this product is working it is really pretty good. But I have had a few occasions when it has given me problems. Most of the problems are easy to fix on your own. But the ones that aren't so easy to fix require a call to the customer service.br / First of all they are next to impossible to get a hold of. Then once you do reach someone they have no accurate way of telling that you registered your product via their website. The worst part is that I was told that I would be sent a "New" part for my machine to replace a malfunctioning one and they sent one that was old, cracked, and malfunctioning. It wasn't even clean. I can not believe that I wasted my money on TWO of these things. Like I said, when the product works it's not bad. But the warranty they claim to give you is awful. I am now out 279 dollars.br /br /
 Lifesaver for me November 18, 2008
For me the CatGenie is a lifesaver in so many ways. READ this if you want to keep your cats, save your back, your health, and help the earth, and in these times, your money. I am just a regular person who loves her cats. I know it sounds crazy that cat litter can cause back problems, but I pulled my back because of stupid heavy cat litter. I thought that I had to give up my three loves because I couldn't take care of their litter box.br /br /I got the CatGenie because it makes sense. The people who invented this product really care. You can see it is high quality and a lot of thought and genius went into it. I did have some problems, which really had to do with how I changed the setup. (The actual setup is easy) I had an unusual situation. The service people could not have been more helpful and corrected my faux pas.br /br /I have an early model and the CatGenie newsletter gives me news about upgrade parts that the company sends out for free.br /br /The CatGenie doesn't use sand litter that doesn't biodegrade. Instead it uses a permanent litter substance that get washed and reused. So as they say: no litter dust to breathe, no litter odors to smell (I have allergies), no litter to buy, and best of all for me, no heavy litter to lug in and out. I can go on and on. I strongly recommend the CatGenie!br /br /W. Orr, Livingston, TX
 Great Idea, Disgusting Mess. November 15, 2008
I purchased my Cat Genie in Feb 2008. It is now Nov 2008 and I'm fed up. The first week it started flashing an error and beeping. It didn't clean out the feces and thus cooked the feces and created a big bowl of feces slush in the bowl. After two hours on the phone and a whole lot more involvement than I wanted with the litter box, the problem was solved. The box occasionally failed in a similar manner and I had to smell cooked fecal matter for a few hours.br /br /In June, the box began giving me an error and stopping mid-cycle. No matter what I did, I couldn't get it to stop starting mid-cycle and not complete its cycle. A few phone calls, a disgusting night of taking the box apart and trying to shoot water through the hose to clear a clog that apparently wasn't even there, I finally figured out that the arm and programming were broken. I wasn't able to get a return to Amazon, nor any real help from Cat Genie because I purchased it here. So I figured out how to manually scoop the feces and run the cycle to clean the urine and litter and dispose of the scooped feces. I've been doing that for months, but today, it failed to drain the water from the tub and I've had it. I called to get help from Cat Genie. They wanted to send me all kinds of replacement parts, but I've had it with taking the box apart and touching things I never wanted to touch (getting into grosser things than simply scooping litter). I told them I was extremely disappointed with the box and don't want any replacement parts. I'm just going to throw it away and purchase a litter box that won't leave my cats holding it for hours while I try to restore their potty. This is a great idea and a failure of a product. I hope you are one of the lucky ones whose box doesn't break. If you aren't, good luck getting knee deep in vomit-inducing situations and becoming a repair-person. I wish I'd never purchased this. Waste of $400.
WHAT A WASTE!!!!!!!!!!!!! November 11, 2008
My husband ordered one of these machines and we rcvd it last week. I was less than thrilled but with 2 children under the age of 2 I decided to give it a chance. What a waste of money. The cleaning cycle lasts over a half hour and is loud. The sani solution which is pricey smells very strong like dollar store air freshener. oh and my upstairs bathroom gets at least 10degrees hotter when the thing is running. My cats have yet to look at the stupid thing. After reading other reviews and hearing about the clogging problems this has done it for me. This is going back after a week in my home. So not worth the $300 plus.
