Even the most enthusiastic cat parents will admit, nobody likes cleaning the litter box. Whether you have one fur baby or a four-legged army, it’s a stinky, laborious task that perfectly explains why automatic, self-cleaning boxes have taken off: they save you time and energy and from unpleasant aromas. And with today’s 36% off sale on the Autoscooper 11, this self-cleaning litter box can save you money.

If you’ve been eyeing a self-cleaning litter box, you may know some of the popular options can cost a pretty penny — like $699.99 worth of pennies. The Autoscooper 11 averages around $279.99, though today is offering a sweet $100 off. Meaning this “game-changing” machine can be yours for $179.99.

Made for cats weighing 3-22 pounds, with a 16.33 inch by 15.35 inch opening, Autoscooper 11 gives your fuzzy friend ample room to hop in and move around while doing their business. Reviews speak to cats of all ages using the box, from 6-month-old kittens to 9-year-old cats. The brand says the open-top desiegn helps with airflow, nixing gross smells and feeling more natural/reminceset of a tradional litter box for your cat.

Equipped with seven safety sensors to detect when your cat is in the box or not, this machine only runs the self-cleaning cycle when the box is empty. And when your cat decides to jump in mid-cycle, with a devil-may-care, jouir de vivre only cats can have, the machine will stop cleaning immediately. Also, reviews love the machines’ “child safety” lock options that stop little ones (or your cat themselves) from mistakenly pushing buttons.

A rotating machine, with an “anti-pinch” entryway, means the large basin is always partially open, so your cat can’t get stuck inside or hurt by a moving door. The basin holds 6.5 liters of liter and has a 10-liter waste bin that can hold up to 10-14 days of waste. Reviews say this machine has actually saved them a ton of money on kitty litter, that the litter savings “far outweighs the perceived cost of the box,” and that it’s a great option for cats who struggle to burry their mess. It’s also so quiet one reviewer wondered if it was even running (it was) others noted their cats like watching the machine on a cleaning cycle.

The genius design puts your cat’s waste directly into the brand’s trash bag in the waste bin, meaning, when you clean it you just have to pull out a trash bag and don’t have to scoop or even really encounter the mess. You get a set of 20 bags when first purchasing the box, but you can buy more here. Your purchase also comes with a waterproof, scratch-resistant litter pad, that’s easy to clean by hand. Note: the brand says this machine works best with bentonite or mineral clumping litters and isn’t suitable for tofu or crystal litter.

For cleaning the machine itself, it’s simple to disassemble and reassemble, with a quick-release design that lets you easily remove the dirty parts for a scrub.

Whether you’re planning a trip, need some help or are just freaking done with litter box duty, this automatic option can help your feline friend feel good and keep your house smelling fresh.

“This was by far my best purchase of the year. It s extremely quiet, to the point I wondered if it was even running. All of my cats took to the open design quickly. The under unit collection tray is quick and easy to clean. This unit also has the same footprint as my large traditional litter box so that was a huge plus!” — Michele S

“I have 4 cats and needed help! I didn’t think they were using the box because it was clean, so wasn’t even sure this was working – until I opened the tray! I’m a senior and bending over to clean the litter box several times a day is not easy. This is so helpful! The bag in the tray lasts several days, and is so easy to tie up and throw away. Great price too! I appreciated that.” — gma60

“Coming home to a clean litter box not having to worry about cleaning scooping, etc. it is all done on its own wonderful amazing product” — DevilBunny

“This product has worked exactly as advertised and surpasses all of my expectations. Well worth the price and makes owning a cat enjoyable again. I’ll leave out the gory details but suffice to say cat goes where he should and house does not smell! I thought this might not work well as it is much less expensive than the other brands but have had for a month and works perfectly every time. Changing the littler is very easy and none is wasted. Thank you!” — Laura J

“I would give this product 10 stars! I must say I was skeptical due to the low cost compared to similar boxes. We had just got two kittens, and it didn’t take long to realize the need to clean the cat box was endless, as well as the amount of cat litter needed. I didn’t want to clean a litter box every other day for the many years that we would have our cats, so I took a chance and ordered the Self Cleaning Cat Litter Box. It is a game changer!!! The kittens, now medium sized cats, took to it right away. The ease of use can’t be beat! Even with two cats, I only have to change the waste box once a week. The use of cat litter has been reduced by 3/4, saving money, which far outweighs the perceived cost of the box. Also, the smell is contained in the waste box, and there is no smell until you pull it out to throw it away, allowing it to be in our small kitchen. Now, we can enjoy our cats without the unenjoyable necessity of litter box cleaning.” — Cathymb

“Great product for the price. I had it for around 3 months now and satisfied with purchase. The disposal tray hold about week worth of waist for 2 cats. If you tired of scooping litter this is the product for you. It is not loud. Scoops litter fast enough to eliminate poop smell. Easy to assemble. Doesn’t take more litter than needed. Both of my cats not scared of it. And it’s cat safe.” — Liliya
