My first 7 years I would buy the paper trays and throw these paper trays away. Costly - YES. Easy - YES. Bad for the Environment - YES. But it was when I moved from a large home to a small condo that these paper trays take up too much storage space and filled up my smaller outdoor trash can service. So I went with these plastic ones. I've had them for two years. It's HALF the price for the cystal. $8 per change versus $16.I get 100 to 130 visits before I need to change and that's not very saturated. I guess different cats pee differently than some of these other reviews. I have a Calico and a tortie cat. Mine are female, not sure if that matters. The cleaning trick is to put the tray into the trash bag, for me 90-100% falls into the bag. For what sticks, I use a cat litter box pooper scooper to push the rest off. Grab a bottle of Urine Be Gone (enzyme) spray, do a light spray, grab 6-7 paper towels (too many just so it doesn't get on your hands, you could use less if you used gloves) and wipe it down. Good as new, no smell. The paper ones can be cleaned this way as well, they last quite a long time before needing to dispose of them. I didn't need to get a larger outdoor trash bin which also gives me more garage space. This solved three issues. The cost was A LOT and now it's worth it, I don't have to store a bunch of paper trays and the space they took up throwing them away. Obviously better for the environment. To me is a win-win-win.Cons: The little plastic flap that you attach to the poop cover falls off occasionally from the one of my cats kicking the litter a bit aggressively. I plan to just permanently attach it with two screws. It's not something that I have to do though. Another con is the price is pricey, but it pays for itself after 6 changes. It's more work.

This is perfect! The disposables were too expensive since I had to change them every two weeks because of the odor. I have only one cat, but the laundry room where the Scoop Free lives always smelled after the second week. I tried all kinds of air fresheners, candles, sprays but after two weeks I couldn't stand it. I change the reusable every month. If the litter gets low because of scooping during the month, I just add a little more litter. There is no odor even after a month, but I figure Kitty deserves fresh litter anyway. It's quick and easy to turn the pan upside down into a large trash bag and rinse the pan with vinegar and water as it's totally empty and there's nothing sticking to it. I wipe down the Scoop Free with vinegar and water and replace the pan. No mess, no fuss. The whole thing takes about ten minutes. The two "problems" I had initially were the magnets coming detached every couple of days, which was a pain, and the dry time for the pan, both of which we solved. We removed the magnets and replaced them with two small screws so the cover stays attached to the pan permanently. For the dry time, I dry the box with a paper towel and then use a hand-held blow dryer to make sure all the moisture is removed - a few minutes.

We have been using the Petsafe tray insert since Dec 2018. It is fantastic - we have had no issue with the magnets or litter overflow over the sides or waste overflow. I read other reviews saying that was an issue, but we have not experienced that.We buy the two packs of petsafe crystal litter. One pack of lavender scent in this tray lasts 10 days - any longer, and the system starts to smell. We are a two cat household with a 9lb and 15lb cat and they are on a grain free diet so they poop pretty frequently. They also urinate in the same spots, which I’ll get more into.The thing I dislike most about this reusable tray is that with the crystals, you’re likely to get urine soup if your cats are like mine and like to piddle in the same spots. This is a failure of the system, not the tray though. However the tray has stained where these frequent spots are. My cats are scratchers, so the tray is scratched and is roughed up in some areas so combined with the urine staining, it’s not a fun clean. I have been thinking of putting a puppy pad liner in and then putting the litter on top. The waste trap is great, but I will probably attach a carbon filter to the trap closure because the plastic has absorbed the smell - replacements are fairly cheap though for the waste trap closure (not the magnet bar, but the other plastic part) and I’m considering buying a new one because they’re about $8.In order to clean the tray, I take the system off and pull the tray into a giant garbage bag. I then shake the tray. Most of the litter comes off. However cats pee in the same spots, so some areas do not. I usually take a towel and run it over and then soak the tray with a heavy foam cleaner. It takes about 20min or so to change the tray.We have left the tray for as long as 25 days and that was a nightmare. 10 days seems to be our perfect number before it starts to smell. Some times we can push it to 14 days. Overall, we spend about $24 on litter a month - I was spending $30 on traditional litter every month, yet I was scooping every day and it smelled so I am fine with the savings.——Edit July 2021 - we used the insert from Dec 2018 to September 2020. In September of 2019, I started student teaching and switched to the box cartridges because I was exhausted cleaning the plastic insert so throughly every 10 days. After using a 6 pack of box cartridges, I went back to using the insert and alternating with a box cartridge every other use. When the plastic insert was not being used, I would put it in the dishwasher (top rack) on sanitize and do a cycle with just it and no dishes. Through this type of care, I eked out a few more months of use before finally throwing it away Sept 2020 and switching to the box cartridges. I would say I got at least 1 full year of use out of the reusable insert tray before it became too disgusting to use anymore.With the reusable insert, I was paying $24 a month for litter. I would estimate in the year of use, I spent $338 (36 bags of crystals + insert).With the cartridges, I pay $42 a month for 3. If I buy in bulk, I can get it down to about $35 a month. I would estimate in the year of use, I spent approx $500 (36 cartridges).In Aug 2020, we upgraded our PetSafe Scoopfree system to the more expensive wifi enabled box and it’s partially the reason why we now fully use the cartridges. We change the cartridges after the box has been used 70-80 times and it’s more efficient to go by rakes than days. I plan on buying a new reusable insert soon and going back to using it.
