Litter Genie

I'm a member of Crowdtap and received a Litter Genie to sample for free. I was super excited when I got the e-mail letting me know that I had been selected. I couldn't wait until it arrived. My sample came with the Litter Genie pail, a refill (the plastic "bag"), a scoop, and a scoop holder. 

I pulled out the refill, scoop, scoop holder, and tore off the plastic tab so that I could insert the plastic refill. This is the one part that I wish were a little easier. Once the plastic tab is removed, you have to pull out the plastic film and tie a knot at bottom. It would be nice if the knot was already tied for initial use. Either way, you'll have to tie a knot at the end each time you empty the bag. It would be nice if they could have the bag have a seal at the bottom with a perf to tear instead of having to cut and tie each time. Kind of like the roll of plastic in the produce section. 

Either way even with having to cut and tie, it is really easy to use. You open the lid, drop in your litter clumps, pull the handle, release the handle and then close the lid. Your clumps fall down and are sealed away in the bag below. It does a wonderful job of sealing away odors and the instructions state that the odor remains "sealed away for up to 14 days." 

I've always scooped my cat Whiskers litter box several times each day, but now with the Litter Genie I don't have to take my plastic grocery bags outside to the trash every day. Whiskers gets a clean litter box and there's no litter box smell thanks to the Litter Genie. If you have a cat, this is a great product to have. I now understand why so many parents love the diaper genie.
