Litter Genie Easy Roll Pail

This thing is awesome! We are long-ago cat parents who have now found ourselves in the position of fostering our granddaughters cat while she is in college. This is very similar to the diaper genie we used with our last child, and is so much more convenient than finding/using plastic bags which always seem to develop holes at inconvenient times. I have not noticed any smell at all. We have only the one cat so size should be no issue; I am scooping twice daily (clumping litter) and there seems to be plenty of room in the bag. Scoop is a nice size, works well with our litter. It is not totally idiot proof, i actually had to read the directions, but very easy to use after that. I am glad that I got the easy roll refills, seems like a good convenience for just the one cat.

If you have a cat, just buy it. It’s everything you want it to be. It’s so much easier than hoarding Walmart bags under your sink, especially now that Walmart bags rip if someone thinks a mean thought about them. There’s no trying to get the stupid little bag to stay folded open, no being engulfed with the poop smells while scooping, no filling your trash can up with heavy litter daily and wasting valuable actual trash room. And it has a holder for the litter scoop, so no scoop wrapped in a Walmart bag hidden under the sink. My kitchen sink cabinet has never been more roomy, y’all. We have two cats and three boxes. The litter genie fills up about every four days for us. That sounded like a lot to me, so I did the math for bag refills to make sure I was willing to pay for them long term. A refill is $20, with 24 bags per roll. If I’m changing the bag every four days, that’s about 3 months of bags per roll (I’m not showing you my math because I’m bad at math and easily embarrassed. If I’m wrong let me live in blissful ignorance, please). That sounds fair to me, but if it doesn’t work with you, the Walmart bags or small trash bags would almost definitely fit in the genie, so you can MacGyver it to fit your lifestyle. I love this thing. I mean really. I was worried the bags would rip, they’re crazy strong. I was worried it would fill too fast, but I’m using 4x less plastic bags than I was before, and frankly, the full bag is a little hefty, so any bigger and I’d probably struggle to carry it out. I was worried the smell wouldn’t stay trapped, but unless you open the trap door while the top lid is open, you can’t tell there’s four days worth of cat potty right next to you. As for troubleshooting tips based on what other reviews complained about, never fear, I have suggestions. - Having trouble keeping the bag secured? Not enough free edge to tie the bag once it’s time to change it? Too much strain on the bag made it rip through the clips? Roll/cuff the top of the bag a couple times before you clip it into place. Reinforces bag, gives the clips more to hold, and keeps enough bag left for a good tie off. - Too much litter/dust collecting on top of the loading zone? Shake out your scoop more so you’re carrying less free litter, don’t scoop as much at one time, and/or drop the doodie into the pail more frequently so the clumps stay in the little trap door space, not sitting on the rim. Also, the bigger the scoop, the more stray litter you’re going to have going on the rim. The included scoop works really well and is obviously sized for the genie, so if you’ve got your own and it’s bigger than theirs, that might be part of your issue. - Scoop holder falls on your floor every time you go to change the bag out because you’re a big dummy who forgets that it’s only held on by the top lid every single time you open it somehow? I’m probably the only one with that problem, but if I’m not, lil bit of poster putty to stick the holder to the base, while keeping it removable for cleaning! I know, I know, I have a big brain, please hold your applause. (Side note, if you’re not happy with your litter or think it doesn’t work well with the genie, shout out to the arm & hammer brand clump & seal multi cat ~slide~ litter. Low dust, great clumps, absorbs smell like a champ)

Great product, easy to use. The bag is on a roll so just tie one end when full, tear at the perforated edge and pull up the new bag. No smell and good size.

I read all of the reviews, especially the 1-star ones. Expensive but purchase wasn't going to change my life style so a month ago I bought the Litter Genie Platinum. I really like this thing. I have four 8 pound cats and multiple litter trays. One of the trays is in the laundry room and gets about 30% of the usage. I use the litter robot twice a day. So far zero issues other than not reading the directions. You have to pull the bag up far enough to easily fit over the flap and 4 corners. The weight of the used litter will pull the bag down and keep it sealed. This means that first usage when I change the bag needs to be days worth of litter. After that it seals itself nicely. I have not noticed any odors coming from the pail. I don't think it would work well with lightweight litter. I use clay clumping litter and it is rather heavy. Open the lid, scoop in what needs to be scooped, close the lid, pull the 'flush' tray out and everything falls into the bag. Push back in the 'flush' tray and it will click into place. A plastic scoop shovel comes with the unit and there is a holder on the side. If anything sticks to the scoop shovel I wash it before returning it to the holder. In regards to the bottom bag box holder - yeah, it's pretty pitiful. They could have designed it so that it firmly gripped the bag box. I put some rubber tape on the inside of the holder and now it firmly holds the box. One review mentioned having to wash up after using this - good idea anyway, but I've used it several dozen times and changed the bag several times and haven't experienced that problem. Another review said that litter gets into the bottom of the pail outside of the bag - I haven't had that happen either. All in all - very good purchase. I'm buying a couple of more today to sit by the other litter boxes.

This pail has a very good, simple design that's easy to use compared to the models that use a long continuous tube bag. It's very easy to remove the bag when it's full and set the next one ready. My only complaint is that the included scooper, while adequate, has holes that are a little bit on the small side, meaning that as you scoop, the loose litter doesn't drain through as easily a scoop I bought separately. I subtracted one star because the second one I purchased, which just arrived, came with an obnoxious marketing sticker applied to the front of the pail. It's crooked, wrinkled, and if you try to peel it off the sticker tears and leaves white paper residue behind. This is extremely obnoxious and I encourage the company to do away with this.

Best option for indoors! It really does cut down on the smell. I have a kitten and got him when he was 10 weeks old and at first used a regualr metal trash can. I QUICKLY found out that i couldn't keep it in the bathroom with his litter box bc the smell was like death. I've been using this for 3 weeks now and I love it. It took me that long to fill up the bag but honestly, the bag should probably be taken out and replaced every 1-2 weeks rather than 3. The first 2 weeks there was no smell. Towards that 3rd week, there was definitely slight smell, especially when opening the lid. The 24 pack says it can last for 6 months, and if you use a bag a week, this checks out. This size would be good for 1-2 cats. I feel like the XL option should be for someone who has more than 2 cats and can fill the whole thing up in 2 weeks max.

The Litter Genie is so convenient and so easy to use. I wish I had this years ago. I don't worry about it smelling like litter or cat urine anymore (not that it did, but I always worried about it). My cat is now older (she is 19 years old) and she doesn't cover her urine or feces anymore. I scoop almost immediately and into the Litter Genie and close the lid. It is very sturdy and does the job well. Also, the bags that come with it are also very sturdy and easy to install and use and dispose of.

A game changer. Nice style, love the white and light grey color. The stainless steel is on the outside wrap only. Wish the scoop was stainless. For the price point I understand why the unit itself isnt completely stainless. A bit deceiving if you do not read everything. Its light in weight. No smell ever, easy to set up and use. Nice design. Love the new easier secure litter bag design. Secures weeks/month of cat feces, amazing when weather is bad, to not have to drop in outside bin daily, my bin dosnt smell any longer. That was horrible everytime I had to drop my trash. So heathier for all. Great in more ways than one. I'd recommend. My cats have never bothered to get into it, another plus. Love it.

Me daba nervio que no me funcionara, pero la verdad ha cumplido perfecto con mis expectativas y se ve bonito visualmente

I’m extremely satisfied with this purchase. From the moment I opened the box, the product felt premium and very well made. The stainless steel construction really stands out — it feels solid, durable, and much higher quality than typical plastic alternatives. It’s very easy to clean, and the stainless steel doesn’t absorb odors, which makes a big difference over time. The design is sleek, modern, and clearly built to last. Everything works exactly as described and makes daily use simple and convenient. I also really appreciate that it comes with trash bags included. They fit perfectly, are easy to install, and make the whole process much more practical. It’s a small detail, but it adds a lot of convenience. Overall, this is a high-quality product that looks great and performs perfectly. Definitely worth the investment — highly recommended!

J'aurai dû l'acheter plus tôt ! Depuis que je suis passée à la litière agglomérante je dois aller sans cesse jusqu'à la poubelle et je consomme énormément en sacs de promenade chiens. J'ai décidé d'essayer cette poubelle à litière et malgré ma réticience au début elle a été très simple à installer, les instructions étaient très claires et ça donne une impression de premium malgré que ce soit du plastique. Le fonctionnement est comme décrit, aucune odeur ne s'échappe, à voir dans le temps.

Al inicio dudé en la compra, ya que venía limpiando la caja de arena y ponía los residuos en bolsas desechables para mascotas (lo cual al final me salía más caro económicamente) y tenía que sacar la basura todos los días debido al olor. Al tener la caja de arena en el baño de mis hijos me preocupaba el olor y la limpieza de los desechos diarios, sobre todo, que él olvidara sacar la basura todos los días. Por lo que decidí comprar este sistema y fue un cambio total. No hay olores, una bolsa dura aproximadamente dos semanas (un solo gato), la compra se hizo en junio 2023 y esta opinión la estoy realizando en enero 2024 y aun tenemos bolsas de la primer recarga, por lo que si cumple lo que promete en cuanto al tiempo de recarga. La bolsa no hay que llenarla hasta arriba, se debe dejar un margen para poder cerrarla y desecharla, ya que veo varias opiniones de que se les caen las bolsas por el peso, a mi no me ha sucedido, pero quizás es por ese margen que dejo siempre para cerrar la bolsa lo cual hace que no sea tan pesada y sin embargo al sacarla siempre veo que la cantidad de desecho es bastante. Me gusta que no ocupa mucho espacio por lo que fácilmente se puede poner en un rinconcito en el baño. En casa utilizamos la arena scoop away y es muy fácil tirar los desechos sin ensuciar nada ya que parecen rocas, por lo que si recomiendo que utilicen una arena que aglutine bien para que no tengan problemas a la hora de ponerlos en el genie litter y que se manche o que no caigan bien en la bolsa. Los repuestos me parecen a un precio accesible (alrededor de $360), sobre todo por la durabilidad. Para mi esto se ha vuelto algo necesario si tienes uno o más gatos ya que evita olores y vueltas constantes para sacar la basura. Al hacer el cambio de bolsa solo asegurarte de abrirla bien ya que viene cerrada a lo largo y ponerla correctamente en los 4 ganchos que trae el bote para que con el peso no haga que resbale y se caiga. Después de 7 meses de uso el little genie está como nuevo, sin olores en el plástico por lo que no he visto la necesidad de lavarlo más que desinfectarlo en cada cambio de bolsa con Lysol. Realmente lo recomiendo.

Very useful when you live in an apartment. It holds a week of litter, no smell.
