Wish I had looked more closely at the pictures before purchasing, I just looked at the xxl picture and really liked that and measured and it wouldn’t fit one of my spaces and then looked at the size of the stainless steel litter box in grey . So disappointed that the top portion curves over, reducing space in the tray for the cats to turn around easily. More annoyed with myself that I didn’t look into returning it before fully opening it and definitely shouldn’t have opened the second tray🤦🏻♀️ mistake is fully mine, one day will need to get at least one XXL tray . I was so excited that the new trays finally came as I had pre ordered, and it was litter change day today so I set them up, only to go oh no. If you have room for the XXL tray, choose that over the stainless steel litter box. Otherwise probably okay if you have a small single cat, but for multiple cats the stainless steel tray is just not big enough, or maybe I just have big cats🤣They had more room to turn around in the old plastic trays even though the stainless steel tray is bigger. Will need to save all over again, sadly only one of my spaces will fit the XXL Otherwise seems high quality and looks good, just wish I had got the at least one of the bigger trays. If I remove the high side to make full use of the big tray, my cats will just make a mess everywhere.
Really love the box. Easy to clean and it doesn’t hold the smell. We are also enjoying not having to vacuum litter. It seems to be trapped before he even leaves the box with only a little ending up in the step and mat.
Love our new kitty litter shitter 👌 Looks good, smells good and goes together very easily. My cats are very happy and so are we!
Absolutely love these trays. Have been searching online for something that works well for indoor cats. makes cleaning much easier. all cats love as the trays are nice and deep making them more comfortable to use!
I am so impressed with this set up! Really keeps the odour down and is easy to clean. Also looks very nice which is important when you have to share space with kitty litter
Best litter tray I've ever had; it's so much easier to replace the litter, and you can see the first time you have to that nothing is sticking to the tray the way it can with plastic ones. Bumblebee clearly prefers this over plastic trays she's had in the past. Their customer service is great, as well. I ordered a different one but it went out of stock pretty much as I was buying it, but they replaced it with this one.
Hard to remove from inside the tray, need to have a second tray on standby to swap over too. Not sure its worth the hassle
This tray is such good quality and it looks great. It has replaced 2 smaller plastic trays and now my cat has so much room! Very easy to use with a clumping litter - the litter doesn't stick to the steel when it gets wet.
Finally, a really good quality, reasonably sized stainless steel litter box for big cats! My two Ragdoll louts had no problems at all with transitioning from their plastic boxes to the big new shiny thing. I’m running the Barely There litter box together with a plastic litter tray as I wanted to trial the stainless steel and obviously need two litter boxes for two cats. It did not disappoint, so I have ordered another Barely There litter box and am waiting for the next batch in September.
I had idly hoped to scale down to one box as we’re downsizing to a smaller house, but came to my senses before trying that, and it’s such a good product that I’m sure we’ll find a room for the 2nd somewhere. As another reviewer pointed out, a Barely There stainless steel litter box with a tofu clumping litter is the absolute answer: no smell, hygienic (as much as waste can be), lightweight on both parts, and easy to clean with no residual odor. It is well worth the outlay, and I feel that it will surely be a worthy and long lasting investment.
Well done Barely There 😊👍
Probably the best litter related purchase I’ve made in a LONG time.
My cat is a digger, he violently hurries his business and it can be so hard to keep the area clean when he’s flinging litter around the place.
This litterbox is deep, large and the open lid is perfect for him!
He can dig to his hearts content and not waste excessive amounts of litter while doing so.
Stainless steel paired with a tofu litter has been the combo of the century. Litter odour is essentially non existent.
Stainless steel is scratch resistant, but he digs at the box so much that unfortunately I do already see some scratch marks. However, being stainless steel it’s not the same issue you’d get with plastic where it’s porous and harbours bacteria growth.
The step catches excess litter, and the sieve is helpful, however I think depending on the litter you use, could be a bit difficult to make work as efficiently. It works decently with tofu litter, though I think the grating being a teeny bit larger would make a worlds difference in efficiently sieving.
Overall, this wasn’t just a purchase, but an investment. My cat is VERY young and I can see this set up lasting him for life.
I agree with some other reviews. The opening in the top, while helpful sometimes, makes it awkward. I had to remove the flap because my cat didn't like using it. Maybe if the flap was on top, it would help contain the smell a little but doesn't leave a gaping hole. Open and close as needed for removingdroppings. Suits my old cat but my 6 month old Maine Coon kitten will get too big for it, so we've got the open top one for him.
Good quality materials, my cat took to it immediately
The litter tray is great, maybe a tad expensive. Only criticism is it would be better if the lid was easier to remove for cleaning. Im used to my old tray that has a clip on each side that lift up for removal and clip down when lid replaced.
Very happy with the stainless steel litter box. Spacious, offers some privacy and easy to clean. Good quality.
This litter box is so practical, with high covered sides, a litter mat and step that catches loose litter so it reduces litter around the tray. Stainless steel is easy to wipe clean and doesn’t hold the stinky wee smell of plastic boxes! It looks sleek and stylish. I love it, the cats love it! It’s a win win!
Cats love it. Easy to clean . Only complaint it's not fully enclosed there is lage opening on top
Looks great and is a breeze to scoop out! Mine unfortunately arrived with a small dint in the bottom, not enough to bother dealing with returns and replacements but a bit annoying.
Great design. High sides so kitty can’t kick the litter around the whole room. Stainless steel tray doesn’t trap that awful cat pee smell, in fact you’d hardly know it was there! Worth every cent
much better than old tray. Almost all litter stays in this one, thoroughly recommend.
Only reasons not five stars, the sifter is awkward to use and the kitties STILL manage to throw a tiny amount out.
This litter box is great. I bought two and both cats immediately used them without any hesitation. The odour is significantly less and they are very easy to keep clean.
