Idiotic Packaging

So, far this appears to be a stupid purchase and wast of money. The company sells "bundles". One would think it would ship together. Nope, that would make too much sense. Rather, the bundle and parts get delivered piece by piece. Maybe one day, this $1000 hunk of plastic will work.

Litter Robot 5 Pro

A product that I’ve spent over a thousand dollars doesn’t work. I’ve done the troubleshooting, received a replacement product and still have the same issues.

I had an issue with it saying drawer was full when it wasn’t . I went on the Whisker app and went into the chat to have Customer Service walking through the steps. I had Dennisha g for Customer Service and she was amazing. She walked me through the steps I was able to get it installed. I also mentioned I had a tear in my liner. She said they will just ship out a new globe so that way I don’t have to worry about just changing the liner they will give me a brand new one! What a great way to start my weekend very happy with the Customer Service and the chat option.

Buyer Beware

I purchased a new Litter Robot 5 and have had nothing but problems with it. They already had to replace it once because the camera didn't work. Now for the past couple months, it states the waste container is full when it is EMPTY. I have called numerous times and get the same response that they are working on a fix and that it will be pushed down through the app. The last time I called was over 3 weeks ago, and it was to happen soon. Still doesn't work. This is a $1,000 piece of crap, that has the worst customer service. This is very sad, since this is my third Litter Robot. DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY, THEY DO NOT STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCTS!

UPDATE - I responded with the information they requested, and after almost a week - still ZERO response from anyone. Still a horrible unit that you have to push the cancel button twice every single time a cat goes in. BECAUSE it thinks the waste is full, when it is empty. This machine is of ZERO value. If I have to go to it every time, it is no help at all.

Hi Alek,


Thank you for this review. We're sorry to hear about the issues that you've been experiencing with your Litter-Robot. We would like to look into this further for you, but we would need some additional information in order to locate your account. We have asked for additional information via TrustPilot so that we can look into this issue for you. Once you have responded with that information, a member of our Whisker Support team will reach out to you via email.

If you're just looking for the type of litter recommended for the Litter-Robot, then we tend to find the best results from an unscented, standard-weight clay clumping litter! We would suggest taking a look at our blog post on our website here: https://www.litter-robot.com/blog/best-litter-for-litter-robot/#rec We look forward to hearing from you soon!

I’ve had my little robot for about 8 months

I’ve had my little robot for about eight months. On 3/10, I get a notification saying that the motor is faulty. I have warranty on the litter robot, so I call Whisker customer service. I was told on the 10th it would ship out in 1-3 business days. I checked today the 17th and a label for my package was created on 3/13, but it has not moved. So I call them again today the 17th.
Why was I told on the 10th that the repair part would ship in 1 to 3 business days if it is not going to ship in the allotted time. Today is the sixth business day. The gentleman on the phone today told me the order would ship in 3 to 5 business days ANDDDD it could take USPS up to four business days to pick it up. This is absolutely ridiculous. This is not good customer service and this is not good warranty service. I’ve been lied to, which is unacceptable. It’s unacceptable for a warranty part that is labeled and ready to ship sit in their warehouse for 2 business days with no movement. And if I paid for warranty on the robot, why is this not shipping out the next business day? It’s a singular part.
If these people know my little robot is not working and my cats can’t use the bathroom, then the replacement part should ship out the next business day. Period point blank.

This product and company sucks

This product and company sucks. Cheaply made, no clear directions on assembly and parts do not fit as described. Difficulty and technical issues with app, customer support useless. What genius thought you needed an app to clean up cat shit? Good idea, but as usual in this digital age, extremely atypical PISS POOR execution. This thing is a piece of shit and I truly feel as though I just threw $800 away. I would not and will not recommend.

The response time, about an hour, with any company is unheard of! I will definitely be singing your praises to anybody and everybody I know who requires Whisker products!

Repeated Failures and Frustrating…

Repeated Failures and Frustrating Customer Support

I had very high expectations for the Litter-Robot 4, but unfortunately the experience has been extremely disappointing.

The unit has failed repeatedly and often won’t complete its cleaning cycle. Instead of functioning reliably as an automatic litter box should, it frequently stops cycling and requires constant intervention. For a product at this price point, that level of inconsistency is unacceptable.

When I reached out to customer support at Whisker, the help I received was minimal. Each time I contacted them, I was simply walked through the same basic troubleshooting steps rather than being offered a clear solution or a meaningful fix. The process feels repetitive and unproductive, especially when the issue keeps coming back.

I was genuinely excited about the newer model and expected improved reliability, but after dealing with repeated failures and unhelpful support, I can confidently say I would not purchase this product again.

Very disappointing experience overall. What should have been a convenient, premium product has turned into a constant frustration.

If I could give them no stars

If I could give them no stars, I would. Ordered a replacement part and it took 7 days for them to mail it out. Unacceptable as this should be a two day turn around. If you can go somewhere else, do it.

Upgraded from LR2s to LR4s

I have had a pair of LitterRobots for several years, and recently having upgraded from LR2’s to a pair of LR4’s complete with LitterHoppers and the stairs. I am thoroughly impressed and delighted with my LitterRobot4’s for many reasons, chief among them is that they are remarkably quiet. The LitterHoppers are fantastic for keeping the litter levels perfect and are easy to fill. I absolutely love that my Robots tell me when they need the waste trays emptied, and the waste bags make such cleanings a breeze. The handle on the globe makes it easy to open up the machine and remove the globe so that it can be cleaned and the robot interior accessible for cleaning. I also very much appreciate the app tracking the usage and weights of my cats, as well as being able to reset, reconfigure, and control the robots from my phone. I cannot recommend them highly enough.
