What I like best about my litter robot is you can use any bag - grocery sack, whatever; and it uses very little liiter. Eventually, it is going to pay for itself. I think the problems I have been having recently have to do with overfilling it as well. (That and a cat that turns into a chicken when it sees it start to rotate)

not quite -- it's a 3-pan litter box
two solid pans -- and one that has a plastic mesh bottom
all three nest together with the mesh bottom one on top
lift that when you need to scoop litter, the relatively clean litter falls through, the clumps stay
dump the mesh bottom one wherever you dump used litter
then, separate the two solid pans --- put the mesh bottom one (freshly cleaned ?) inside the pan that was on the bottom (also clean)
dump the relatively clean litter from the pan it filtered into --- into the pan with the mesh bottom, which is inside the other solid one
rinse that solid one you just dumped out, and put it on the bottom of the stack, then put the privacy cover back on the whole shebang
not mechanized, just easy -- no manual scooping, and far less dust
Hmm, I have seen that before. Glad it works for you. We bought the Litter Robot 3? 4? years ago, it's the best. I do occasionally have it angry nowadays, usually when I overfill the litter but has been way better than any other auto litterbox I've ever had (the stupid rake ones are the worst). Yours is likely MUCH less expensive than the Litter Robot.
