hello YouTube so it's been a month with
0:03
my pet safe smart spin scoop
0:06
safe uh automatic litter box and I
0:11
wanted to give you a full
0:13
review um so far so
0:17
good no complaints at all really um for
0:21
the first time I had let the waist
0:27
basket fill
0:28
up and
0:30
and it did alert me in the app which was
0:33
nice so that does work um from what I
0:37
looked at inside there's there's like a
0:39
looks like some kind of laser LED or
0:42
something towards the top here that can
0:46
tell I
0:48
think um these are the shopping bags
0:51
people keep asking them out just just
0:53
your basic you know t-shirts shopping
0:56
bag
0:58
fits and just tucks right in
1:01
here um which is really nice cuz I don't
1:05
want to I don't like being beholden to
1:08
the company's bags so that's good um
1:13
this is a month of litter I have not
1:17
changed this out I'm going to do this
1:19
today and um so it's mixed I I I I'm I'm
1:24
working on a second litter um that I
1:28
bought so that's why it's different
1:30
color but um I'll show you how this
1:32
looks even after month like it's not
1:35
could probably keep going because it's
1:38
the
1:39
smaller clumps that don't make it
1:43
through the
1:45
sifter or what ends up in there but in
1:49
my eyes over
1:51
time you know those would theoretically
1:55
get clumped up in a bigger Clump you
1:57
know over time and make its way out but
2:04
um this is the
2:06
only sort of issue I have and that was
2:10
um the after the second day of use um
2:14
there was like a loose stool or whatever
2:18
and it just smeared it so I got to clean
2:20
that but that's no big deal um I just
2:22
changed in the app it had a it defaults
2:25
to 3 minutes of Clump
2:28
time and I just changed it to seven and
2:32
I haven't had any issues since um but
2:36
really
2:36
that's not really much anything so I'm
2:40
really happy with this cuz I thought
2:41
this would get messy because it kind of
2:44
bounces over like you just saw and um no
2:48
I think it's smooth enough I saw reviews
2:50
of The Little Robot
2:52
4 and people are complaining I guess
2:55
that it's not smooth enough on the
2:58
inside that stuff does end up smearing
3:01
more um but no complaints that that is
3:05
literally a month of two cats one one
3:08
huge he's a 17 pounder and another uh
3:14
more on the kitten side
3:17
um and it
3:20
is doing well oh that was the so that
3:24
was like the other day I got to I got to
3:25
clean that I think uh the big guy he he
3:30
makes a mess he tends to sift through it
3:34
uh
3:35
first and and just he makes a mess he
3:38
goes he spends like five minutes in
3:41
there um before and after his his duty
3:46
so um whatever
3:48
that's not that big of a deal on me
3:51
either um so so far so good I will show
3:55
you the app just um my the only
3:58
issue that i h there is no issue with
4:02
that but the one thing I'd like to see
4:05
um change is just the time um it uses
4:10
the
4:11
24-hour uh clock which um I don't know
4:15
why that is and you can't change it so
4:19
that's it really and the
4:21
other maybe I don't know if it can be
4:25
done but to clean to take all this
4:27
litter out I got to just put it over
4:30
undo this undo it in the back which is
4:34
pretty easy I'll show you just so you
4:35
know it's very easy actually this so you
4:39
take that off like that and then I
4:43
take this off which
4:45
this comes off very
4:48
easy
4:51
see I'm going to leave it on now but um
4:54
anyway so I would take
4:58
this uh
5:00
out and just empty this in a garbage
5:05
what would be nice is if it either
5:07
rolled or just came with a piece maybe
5:10
that you could put over this so that all
5:13
the litter would just go into the the
5:15
waist basket
5:17
below um not a big deal
5:22
but so far so good I like that there
5:26
just isn't many moving parts and
5:29
hopefully uh nothing
5:31
to if it does fail it can be replaced
5:35
easy but um the only other thing I'd
5:39
like to see see I had to this is a stool
5:42
I made in uh seventh grade how you like
5:45
that but um I need
5:48
something better uh for a step and they
5:52
don't really sell them I was looking you
5:54
know cuz I I'd like uh to catch a litter
5:58
there but but so it would be nice if pet
6:00
safe made maybe a step for
6:04
this um cuz the big guy he he's a pain a
6:08
butt he just he's got to stand in here
6:13
and you know do his thing but um anyway
6:18
all
6:19
good yeah pet
6:22
safe good product I would say and it's
6:25
half the price of the litter robot and I
6:29
from what looks like to me it's almost
6:32
same
6:33
functionality
6:35
um I know there's a couple bells and
6:37
whistles on the little robot that this
6:39
doesn't have but if you just want a
6:41
simpler one this is it cuz it this is
6:44
pretty darn simple um when you add
6:47
litter the the
6:49
big thing you got to remember with this
6:52
when owning this product is when you go
6:54
to add litter maybe like every I don't
6:56
know I do it every couple days um
7:00
you got to hit and hold this for three
7:03
seconds and then that puts it
7:06
in uh this mode that you
7:09
can add the litter cuz it um it goes by
7:13
weight so there's like a a scale sensor
7:17
in here that that's how it knows the
7:19
cats in there that's how it knows
7:22
um I think I I possibly also that um
7:26
with the waist I'm not sure how how that
7:29
um um actually works how it knows when
7:32
the waist is full but I did get
7:34
the app update and it was true so it was
7:37
nice I um cuz I was just emptying every
7:40
couple days so I I didn't wasn't letting
7:42
it get that full but um anyway and you
7:46
know that's it hit the play button and
7:50
it
7:51
goes simple
7:53
simple um all right well cheers guys um
8:00
happy kitty happy life
