I was actually intimidated when it came to cleaning mine the first time... and it really needed it. Thanks for this tutorial.
Your very welcome!
Yes. Me too! I am not tech savvy. I just got it a couple weeks ago and need to clean it. Thank you for the thorough video! SUPER HELPFUL!!!
Same here, it’s super cold/ snowing where I live so I needed a tutorial of how to clean it inside my house, normally I take the globe outside on a hot day and use the hose with soap then let it air dry
Thank you for this video! I’ve had my Litter Robot for a year and a half and didn’t know it could be disassembled for washing. There was an ever present smell of litter in my office and now it’s GONE!!! I’m so darn happy this morning waking up to a fresh upstairs!
Great tutorial! No unnecessary comments, quick and to the point. It is easy to follow and covered all that was needed
for a general clean up.
Thanks Preston! How was this your first time cleaning your Litter Robot?
Over a year ago I got my robot and it arrived the same day I took a kid home from the hospital as he healed from horrendous wounds. I haven't touched my robot since someone set it up for me. This tutorial was easy, clear, and succinct. Will definitely use your channel for future needs. Thanks for making a task - that seemed so horrendously difficult - easy and quick. I may actually clean it quarterly now .... cheers and thanks again!
Added bonus - if you leave the chamber in your driveway and turn it to follow the sun as it dries, your neighbors will think you're channeling aliens or stealing their cable. Made for extra fun.
Thank you!! I work at a vet clinic with FIVE clinic cats, so our robot sees a lot of action. No one knew how to clean the thing but this made it super easy!
That's awesome, Rebecca! How many Litter Robots do you have - and do you use others?
@@Prixiepets We only have the one which is their "primary" box but have other traditional litter boxes as well - so nice to have one less litter box to scoop.
Oh thank you! This is the best vid on cleaning! I now have a happy Robot, and a very happy cat :-) One little thing I changed up was after hitting the empty button, I took the tray out and left it out with the litter. I saved it 'til last, so my cat could still have a "cat box" of sorts while I cleaned and then waited for the globe to fully dry. It was a good move, b/c my cat ended up using it during the whole process. Once everything else was fully dry and ready to reassemble, I cleaned and dried the tray, added a new liner, and put it all back. Thanks again for this vid!!
Thank you for this super straight-forward cleaning tutorial! It was my first time cleaning it and there are some LONG videos out there! I was using walnut litter as well but cleaned it to switch to clay as the company suggests. We have some issues with smell but it seems as though the drawer doesn't close tightly on one side so I've contacted the company. Thanks again!
Your welcome Julia! Glad it helped. Yes - the walnut litter is great in traditional cat boxes if you remember to scoop daily, but would stick to the rubber litter pan with Wally's pee. We got the fence piece but a little pee still hits the raw rubber. Clay litter stopped most of the sticking.
Thank you so much for this video! Just cleaned our robot for the first time and so excited to know what we were doing from watching this!
Omggg , thank you!!! This was the best video for “ litter robot cleaning for dummies” lol 😅 you made it so simple 🌟
Okay. This is the best cleaning video!!! I haven’t cleaned it ever cause I didn’t know I could!! I have started noticing a FUNKY smell, and looked it up. Thank you so much for being so straight to the point!!
4:41 Excellent! Easy to understand and follow. ❤
I have the Litter 3 Robot model and am thrilled to have. No doubt they have their quirks, but I’m guessing it has to do with lack of proper maintenance. I took my Litter Robot apart after seeing this video. Mine has the inner heavy duty rubber liner. I was able to release one screw so I could take a high pressure hose and clean inside both sides of this liner. Then scrub both sides of the rubber liner with soap. I also note it’s probably a good idea to lightly vacuum the electronics for those of us who use clay type scoop. I’m guessing this is what may interfere with the routine cycle dump mode that seems to miss. The Litter Robot was a gift to myself about two years ago and I know my kitties love it. It took them about 3 days to get on with it. The next year I acquired an IRobot vacuum that now cleans around the Litter Robot twice a day. We have kismet and we are thrilled with these products.
Your background choice of music had me looking all around like a squirrel in a silent room. The panning is what I'm referring to, 😂
Just got a second hand robot (I wanted to try one to see if my cats used it before investing in a brand new one) and am very happy I found this video! This was simple and to the point. Me & the cats are loving the robot so far and now that I know how easy it is to clean am even more thrilled with my purchase.
Thank you! We are glad your enjoying the litter robot as much as we do!
Very informative & easy to follow along, thank you 😊
Thank you for this video! I lost my manual right after I bought the litter robot, but I knew RUclips wouldn’t let me down. and… I’m so glad you didn’t fall down the stairs while you were doing that. 😅 I was slightly concerned. 😬😆
Excellent!!! Quick and detailed without a lot of extra chatter!! I am ready to do mine for the first time and with your help I can see how long it will take and have the exact steps to follow. Thanks so much! I have subscribed!!!
The best tutorial I have seen to clean my robot. Straight to the point and precise. Thanks👍🏼
Just cleaned the Robot. It was very easy. The parts are so light so I just took the globe outside to hose it down and clean. Don in a few minutes. I have had 3 cats for about 3 months and it was not overly dirty .
AHHH this was so helpful!!!! I'm going to be doing a deep clean for my cat the apartment is starting to smell
For real - we just realized that a clump of cat pee was stuck to the grate and stinking up the basement bad. Knocked it down, roses. Make sure you have enough cat litter before you clean!
Thank you so much for making this. Very easy to clean my Litter Robot.
I love your patient step by step instructions 👍🏼 I alwats come back to your video when i need to clean my litter robot like today
Wow - this video makes cleaning my Litter Robot Open Air super easy - thanks!
Clear, short and sweet. Thank you 😊
I just successfully cleaned mine thanks to your video! The instruction manual is pretty vague and this really helped.
Something for owners of the newer LR3 to note: you can completely remove the guard by undoing the 4 Phillips head screws on the back, where the waste drop hole is. Then squeeze the guard gently (like a taco) and it can fit through the front for full washing. There was a bunch of litter that was stuck up in there that I was able to wash out finally.
Really, the hardest part is drying it out, but an old towel and gentle hair-dryer session helped that along.
Great tutorial 🎉
I spent an hour and a half with customer support as the blue light kept flashing. She patiently walked me through cleaning the pincher (who knew??) before trying again. However, since our LR is old, and NEVER been cleaned, this pincher was just beyond cleaning up. Ended up ordering a new base, so we'll start out clean and now know how to do a thorough cleaning.
Hadn't done this in a whole year. The stench! I could hardly walk past it anymore, LOL. Very useuful video, thank you very much!
Great video! Thanks !!
Best cleaning video. Straight to the point! Thank YOU!!!
Thank you so much for this straightforward and instructive video!
Thank you so much! This was so helpful and straightforward. Liked!
Thank You
Super helpful!
Thank youuuuu! We're in an apartment so I was nervous about how to get it in the tub or if that was possible.
Love the piece by piece disassembly/assembly instructions. About using a rough plastic scratch brush on plastic....that's a no-no it will tough up the plastic surface and pooh won't slide as easily. Your supposed to roll the trash bag down before placing it in the holder.
Thank you for the props! Purr... but the brush we used on the high quality rubber is not as sharp or hard as my cat nails (which actually do wear the rubber if your cat is a heavy scratcher)!
THANK YOU! I have been eager to clean ours as it’s been about 3 months that we’ve had it also but I didn’t know how. This is so helpful.
Did it work? Do you still remember? ;)
@@Prixiepets yes! I just recently did a full clean on it again. It definitely helps keep the smell down.
Thank you for making this now I can get rid of that smell!!!
Thank you so much 💖 mine is sparkling clean now!
Thank you for this, it was very helpful 😊👍🏼
Thank you for this!
This is great. Thank you so much! Very straightforward. 👏👏
Great tutorial!
Very good video !
Thank you for watching! 😄
@@Prixiepets we bought the litter ourselves and it's great and easy to maintain !
Appreciate this!
Best of others
So as long as it’s cleaned regularly is there minimal to no smell ?
Thank you so much for this! I've been terrified to clean my litter robot because I wasn't sure how to do it.
Thanks for the video!
Excellent video! Thank you very much for the wonderful tutorial! :o)
Your welcome, Kelly! We pretend to get excited to clean our Litter Robot by watching this video. Like most things in life, it's not that bad when you get started ;)
My cats and I thank you!!
What size trash bag do you use? Great video by the way!
Thank you! We use regular kitchen trash bags. Mine says 13 gallons, but you could probably go a little smaller.
I see you have some sort of ceiling piece inside the robot litter. Mine didn't come with one of those. Where do you get one from?
A plastic scrub brush will scratch the plastic tub, over time it will make the surface rough and more wet litter will get stuck to it. That's why the company always recomments using a cloth to wipe it down.
That's actually a good point. They just came out with non-toxic wipes - share.litter-robot.com/j7cBp. Just keep in mind that the brushes are much softer than cat claws. We didn't notice any scratching from brush, but eventually the cat nails get to the rubber litter pan which we replaced after a year and half.
I love my litter robot, and so does my cats.
I’m so happy to hear that!!!
Does yours have a slight smell after you clean it? I don't know if I am being picky or if that's just how it is considering what it does.
Hi Amber - we talk about it in our new video - ruclips.net/video/0u460I8L35A/видео.html - but it is a cat box, and will always have a smell if you get really close.. Our Litter Robot didn't smell after we cleaned it as much as we didn't 🙃
For 2 cats using this one litter robot, how often should I clean it?
You should not wash the carbon filter. Washing it doesn’t really do anything, and can cause it to grow mold. Just replace it. Otherwise, very helpful video!
I think i have the same one but it doesn't have that shield inside...
The shield is optional, and I think some of the first litter robots did not have them at all. Thanks for watching!
How often would I need to replace the litter in the litter robot?
There is a shield inside this thing? I did not get one
They came with the original Litter-robot 3 to protect cat from stuff that got stuck to litter grate/scoop. They said they removed them because they were causing problems.
Hi there, what bags do you use for your robot? I don’t particularly enjoy the Litter Robot ones because they’re sooo tall
Hi! We just use Glad kitchen bags. They are still tall too but we just clip the bag in tight and bunch the excess bag to the side. I’m wondering if smaller kitchen bags would still work but not be as long?! Probably less expensive too
How often should you clean it?
You should clean your Litter Robot every 1-2 months, wiping down periodically.
Some cats like Prixie are picky so if it gets too dirty....
Are you sure about washing/wetting the carbon filter? I read carbon filters should not get wet
Probably not the best - we still have the same one from almost 2 years ago! Still works good, but should probably replace - share.litter-robot.com/j7cBp
- the biggest problem we had was with the type of litter used, which we talk about here in our one year review: ruclips.net/video/_-p_8PdAcw0/видео.html
@@Prixiepets thanks for the clarification!
Mine did not come with that part she calls a shield.
What kind of vacuum do you have?
How often do you clean your Litter Robot>? Be honest ;)
This'll be my first time cleaning it. So wish me luck!!
So far it's been every 3 months lol 🥴
I'm diving in after more than three years!
How long does it take for this to dry
We wipe the Litter Robot down so less than an hour. If I'm in a rush I just wipe dry and slap it together - there are no worries unless. If you use damp cloths to wipe, it dries in minutes.
Cal D how often would you need to clean out the litter robot because I only do it one a week
Use a power shower
Had to look that up but that looks like a great idea, thanks!
mine turned into cement mixer
Does everybody have to do this? My girlfriend only adds another bag of fresh litter and let’s the robot clean out the dirty litter. Someone plz answer
You didn't show much of cleaning the globe. Would I be able to take the hand shower to get all the residue of soap etc. out of the globe once done cleaning.
Since there aren't any electronics in the globe - we wash ours in the same manner.
8 gallon trash bags fit good and are much cheaper.
Thats what we use - still can't find a perfect cat litter but haven't tried theirs
Very frightening. I suspect i won't be able to reassemble it. But i need to clean it. The room stinks and i guess it's the robot.
This is a scam. there is no warranty and no technical support. They didn't fix my robot still in warranty
How is she not wearing gloves 🤢
Immunity to cat's love :)
No gloves, yucky 😭😖🤮
Put on gloves 🤢
come on ... if the cats have diarrhea or soft poop the stuff is sticking everywhere inside basically.. cleaning this thing takes longer then cleaning a normal cat toillete.
This was very informative
