IRIS USA Large Open Top Cat Litter Box with High Sided Walls Tall Scatter Shield Scoop Included Easy Clean Plastic Pan Stain Resistant for Big Cats Kittens Indoor Multi-Cat Households

Good quality litter box, we have two of these now, easy to clean, keeps litter in the box if you have a cat that likes to really dig and fling litter around, which we do, i like the design of having the recessed step in area at the front, makes it easier for our one older cat, she doesn't have to jump in just step over and in. It's really easy to use, just snap the two halves together and fill. Obviously being an open litter box it doesn't do anything to contain smell, but if you have a cat that hates enclosed litter boxes and won't use them then this is about as good as it gets because the upper lid functions well to keep litter in. Overall a good product that seems durable and unlike some others we have had the bottom doesn't stick to the litter and its super easy to just hose it out every few months and start over with fresh litter, we tend to clean it and add litter as needed for a few months then do a complete refresh which helps keep it clean and reduces odor.

This is a great cat litter box! I adopted 2 boy kittens a few months ago and they were so aggressive when digging in the old litter box, that I was constantly cleaning up loose stones off the floor. This litter box has a detachable side wall so you can use it or put it aside. It came with a scooper too, which can hook to the side.

I love the price and height of this litter box for my very messy 4 month old kitten who is very enthusiastic about covering her business. It keeps lost of the litter from being kicked out. It has been VERY helpful for containing splatters when she was having tummy troubles. It is the perfect size for a small kitten, and I will use it again in the future when I foster kittens, but it will be too small for any full size cat, but that doesn't stop our 10 lb boy from jumping in there to annoy his little sister. My girl is currently about 4.5 lbs What I do not like about the box is that the bottom is not flat. The middle of it is raised about 1/4 of an inch and the perimeter has about a 1.5 inch wide "moat" (shown in picture). I have no idea what purpose this serves, but it makes it difficult to scrape anything off the bottom when the litter level is low. Thankfully the plastic is nice and smooth to help prevent sticking. Additionally, it is difficult to snap the top on the bottom, but thankfully, my kitten has not yet knocked it off. We are just using this box temporarily until she gets used to the litter robot.

Most of the things in other reviews are true. That being said I still love my new litter box and plan to buy more of the exact same thing. I've had this box for a bit over a month now and it works great at keeping *most* of the litter inside the box, which was my main reason for purchasing it. The high sides are very nice. I'm able to put a bit more litter into the box which keeps it smelling nice, makes it easier to scoop, and keeps my kitty happy. This box does work well with my liners. I don't believe it would work as well for layers of liners (like those sifting liners you can buy) though. One complaint other reviewers had were the odd corners in the front of the box and them being difficult to scoop. Because I use liners I don't have too much of an issue with this, however the awkward extra square corners that jut out of the box would be annoying if I had to try and clean inside of those everyday. As others have said the "lid"/sides that attach to the box do leave a little to be desired. I wish they secured to the box a bit better/tighter. They snap onto the box on the longer sides (not the entrance or back of the box), but it's not a particularly tight fit. That being said, I haven't had any issues with it falling off or coming undone in my bathroom between my toilet and tub. I also haven't had issues with it when I moved it to and open bed room. Having the scoop that hangs on the side of the box is EXTREMELY convenient, which is another reason I want more of these boxes. The holes on the scoop do seem a little big for scooping the litter initially. Originally I would use a different scoop on the box every few days because I felt it would get some of the smaller pieces the included scoop would miss, but honestly there was very my other more narrow scoop got that the included scoop did not. Some people had concerns with their cats being able to use the box. It's definitely not the largest box you can get. My small 6 lb cat has no issues with it what so ever. She can turn around and do her business with ease. I also have a 17 lb foster who seems to also love this box. Turning in it for her is a little more cumbersome since her space is a little more restricted, but she does use it and seems to prefer it sometimes. All in all, this is a great buy. Yes there are probably better boxes out there, but for the price and what's included this is a great box. Just make sure you consider what's most important for you and your needs.

I am a first time kitty owner so I dint' completely realize what I was getting into when I adopted. I knew kitty's used a littler box so I bought a box and thought that would be it. The first one I bought was just an open box and that was it. Didn't have a hood or sides. Even though it was tucked away in a corner, I didn't like that the litter was still visible from across the room. Weird, I know. It's kind of like how I don't like to walk into any restroom and see the toilet lid open. I can't explain it, it's just a weird pet peeve. Skeezix the cat didn't care for the lack of privacy much either. Next I bought a hooded one. I thought it would give her the privacy she wanted and me the satisfaction of not seeing the exposed litter. Skeezix cared very little for the change and would kick off the lid every chance she got. I think she didn't like the feeling of being trapped, even though the hood was size appropriate. So now the hooded one has now become the secondary box in case I go out out of town. I found this one online and I saw it had high sides which would help cut down on her scattering and tracking litter everywhere. The sides cut down on my looking at exposed littler issue and keeps the area clean. Plus, it gives her just enough privacy to feel comfortable enough to do her business while staring me in the eye as if to say "There, I left a little something for you, now clean up my mess." I had purchased several scoopers already but they were all so big and hard to use effectively. The scooper that comes with this one is perfect size. I scoop at least twice a day and i still use a bigger scoop to put everything in to carry it away but I use the little scooper to get every last little bit from the the tray. And it hangs off the side, which is very convenient. I wish all scoopers would hang like that. I'm not wild about having the scoopers touch anything else. Another added bonus is this one kept my little chihuahua from eating the litter once she discovered the kitty was a walking vending machine. My dog was elderly and disabled so it took her a while to catch on to what was going on in that back corner. Once she did finally figure things out she was able to get into the box from the front but she was just disabled enough to not be able to reach to much. When i figured out she was doing it I moved the littler box to sit on top of a bigger, higher storage box that she definitely couldn't get to. And now that it sits higher, Skeezix is happy again and so am I because I don't have to bend down so far and get my face right up in it to clean it out. The high sides really do cut down on the litter tracking, and keeps the smells from the freshies from overpowering the room. It's super easy to clean too, I throw both pieces in the tub with oxi clean type product, let it dry on the balcony for a bit a we're back in business. I put baking soda down before the litter and I've never noticed an issue with the smell and neither has anyone who has visited. I make sure I ask people because I don't have to have gone nose blind to it and not realize it. Everybody is happy with this box. I would recommend it to a first time cat owner for sure. The high sides are a happy medium between the cat feeling trapped in a hooded top or completely exposed in open box.

It's a litter box. what more could you want? This box is one of the smaller versions. My preference is to give the cat a larger litter box. I just think it would be more comfortable. But we are going to give this a try and see how it goes. I like the high sides and no top. This helps keep the litter in the pan and does not require you to remove the lid to scoop. Speaking of scoops, toss the one that comes with this and buy a decent one. Lastly is the plastic this is made of. Frankly, its crap. The top extension part does not secure to the bottom tray, it comes right off. I don't particularly care, other than I hope the cat does not knock it off all the time. If she does we will be buying a new one. But I have had litter box's in the past that are made of far better plastic. Is this a big deal? Meh, I don't know. I mean, its a poo box right? And for $8.50 if I end up not liking it, I am not out anything. It's what you would expect for the price. Update: A few things to note after almost a year of use. The quality of the plastic turns out to be a non issue. It IS cheap plastic. I just does not make any difference one way or the other is all. The top part does not get knocked off by our cat. never happened once. Someone noted in another review that the "Indentations" on the bottom of the pan around the outside make it hard to efficiently scrape wet litter out. I noticed this independently of ever having read the review. It's not a big deal, i mean you just scrap with the corner of the scoop. But it is non the less a bit of a pain and something that would be more convenient if there were no indents. I think they put these in to add rigidity to the otherwise crappy plastic. Our cat is small for an adult cat. And she just fits inside this box length ways. She always pees to the entrance of the box. For the most part, she does a good job of staying inside. But just recently, she has,,, ahhh, overshot the front of the box some. So we are ordering a new box. I have to say overall, I will stick with the three star rating especially for the price. It is functional and serviceable, if not a perfect design. I DO NOT want a box that you have to remove the lid every time you scope. I really like the open top. But you are hard pressed to find a box LIKE this one, that happens to be larger. Most other litter box's have a full hood and often a door. But peeing outside the box, (which is not her fault) is unacceptable. We are going to try this next. https://www.amazon.com/Natures-Miracle-High-Sided-Litter-P-82035/dp/B0087Y5NKS/ref=pd_sim_sbs_199_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=GG79A7P5PK1HDWK7STXF .

this IRIS USA Large Cat Litter Box with Scatter Shield Open Top High Sided Cat litter box is great as cats like to dig and kick up the litter which what I had before was a constint clean up around the box I had but this one is deaper with high sideses and a cover which makes it even higher to keep the litter in the box and not on the outside of the box. The price isn't that bad I bought 2 of them as I have 2 cats and they seem to have picked there own one to use. I recomend this litter box if your looking for less mess to have to deal with,

The big kitty likes it, but the small kitty doesn't. I like it though, because it prevents the big kitty from making a mess on the floor.
