ScoopFree Reusable Tray with Crystal Litter, Fresh Scent, 4.3Lb Bag

I was buying the trays which got super costly and over using this it’s much more affordable. no issue with dustiness or the clumping since it’s the crystal litter! controls scent pretty well! my cat has a tendency to get the littler outside the litter box but I think it’s my specific cat, no issue to the product itself 😂

This fit with my litter box well. The metal tray is much more durable and better quality than the disposable ones. You don't scoop with this type, the petsafe box cleans itself. It works well, especially if you line it with a plastic bag to stop the smell from lingering. This is my tertiary litter box, and only one of my cats uses it every so often, so I only have to replace the litter etc. monthly. If he used it more often or if both cats used it, I don't know that it would be cost effective. I think more usage would make the urine pool more. since he uses it infrequently, i haven't had any issues with urine leakage or pooling.

We purchased our first PetSafe ScoopFree Reusable Tray in September 2023, and it has held up beautifully. We originally used it with crystal litter, but after adding another cat to our household who did not like the crystals, we switched to Pretty Litter. The tray has worked just as well with Pretty Litter as it did with the original crystal litter. We now have two of these trays since we have two cats, and both have performed consistently without any issues. ⸻ ✅ Durable and Easy to Clean ✔ Sturdy ✔ No warping after nearly two years of use ✔ No odor or residue build-up ✔ Handles frequent washing without issue 💰 Big Cost Savings ✔ Saved us money over time ✔ Paid for itself within the first few months ✔ Continues to perform like new 🐱 Works with Different Litters ✔ Works perfectly with Pretty Litter ✔ Rake clears as expected ✔ No tracking or mess issues ✔ Performs reliably in a multi-cat household ⛔️ Cons • Requires manual rinsing and drying, which takes more effort than disposable trays • If using liners, you must make sure the rake teeth do not catch on improperly placed edges 🔄 Update (2025): Our litter boxes are set up in our basement. After bringing home our second cat, who is particular about her litter environment, we added a dehumidifier to keep the area consistently dry. The reusable trays have continued to perform perfectly in this setup. Even with continuous use and environmental adjustments, there are no cracks, leaks, or odor issues. We also started using scoop liners to make litter changes even easier. They significantly reduce how often we need to deep clean the tray and keep everything much cleaner overall. The key is proper placement. The liner needs to sit smoothly and not be tucked under the tray sides where the rake moves. If it is not seated correctly, the rake teeth can catch on it and litter day goes back to our pre-liner routine. If you are considering liners, this is the set we use: https://a.co/d/08JAW8if After almost two years of daily use, both trays still look great and fit tightly in the automatic boxes. They have been a solid long-term investment for our household. ⭐ Final Thoughts: If you want a budget-friendly and reliable solution for your automatic litter box, this reusable tray is worth it. It lasts, saves money, and works great even with alternative litters like Pretty Litter. We bought a second one once we added another cat, and I would absolutely buy it again.

I really like how convenient the ScoopFree little box is, but replacing the boxes got to be very annoying. The boxes are large and could barely fit inside of a trash bag. It also bothered me to throw away cardboard, which is something I'd normally recycle. Despite being highly overpriced, this tray is exactly what I was looking for. Instead of replacing the box every month and a half, I'm replacing just the litter every month. This is significantly less wasteful and not much extra effort. The down sides to this box are a) it's a piece of molded plastic- with markup, it shouldn't be over $10, b) the cardboard played a role in keeping the box clean, without that absorption expect to replace litter 30-50% more frequently, and c) the flap needs to be put on ever so perfect, and even then, d) it still won't control odor quite as well as the boxes. Despite those drawbacks, I'm still happy to have this thing and will keep using it.

This is perfect! The disposables were too expensive since I had to change them every two weeks because of the odor. I have only one cat, but the laundry room where the Scoop Free lives always smelled after the second week. I tried all kinds of air fresheners, candles, sprays but after two weeks I couldn't stand it. I change the reusable every month. If the litter gets low because of scooping during the month, I just add a little more litter. There is no odor even after a month, but I figure Kitty deserves fresh litter anyway. It's quick and easy to turn the pan upside down into a large trash bag and rinse the pan with vinegar and water as it's totally empty and there's nothing sticking to it. I wipe down the Scoop Free with vinegar and water and replace the pan. No mess, no fuss. The whole thing takes about ten minutes. The two "problems" I had initially were the magnets coming detached every couple of days, which was a pain, and the dry time for the pan, both of which we solved. We removed the magnets and replaced them with two small screws so the cover stays attached to the pan permanently. For the dry time, I dry the box with a paper towel and then use a hand-held blow dryer to make sure all the moisture is removed - a few minutes.

This reusable tray is a great upgrade if you want less waste than the disposable option. The plastic feels durable and fits the ScoopFree system well. Cleaning is straightforward, and paired with crystal litter it does a solid job with odor control. Nice balance of convenience and reusability for ScoopFree owners.

Honestly not a great design. There is an inexplicably small ridge in the tray as can be seen in the pictures. You would imagine this would be where the waste goes. You would also likely wonder to yourself "Why is the waste storage area so much smaller than the disposable trays?". The instructions it comes with are mediocre and leave you double checking to make sure the magnets are placed properly. The actual scooping process pushes the waste JUST under the plastic lip it comes with. The waste DOES NOT make it into the receptacle separated on the tray by the ridge. I thought maybe, over time, as more waste is pushed into it the old waste would be pushed and fall into the receptacle, but it doesn't. It stays and piles up against the ridge and after about a week begins to stink terribly. You either have to manually open it up and scoop the waste over the ridge or just scoop it out and into a bag every few days. It's quicker than scooping a non automatic litter box for sure, but you are still going to be scooping it at about the same frequency. The product is a great deal less helpful than it sounds or could be. Were they not both incredibly wasteful environmentally and absolutely ridiculous in price I would personally continue using the disposable trays as at least you never have to scoop those, even if they don't last as long as advertised for even a one cat household.

I love my Petsafe litter box, but hated using the expensive disposable trays. I was worried that the plastic would be a mess to clean and that it would hold odors. I decided agains using a liner because I know my girl would tear it up upon the first use. The good news is that the litter is so absorbent, that not much sticks to the bottom. I suppose if your kitty digs around and they do their business on the bare plastic, then this would be a different story, but so far so good. You could stir it a bit with the litter rack, if that is an issue. Having owned a super expensive Litterbot, I was worried about odor. The Litterbot’s plastic absorbed the stink and even my family noticed how smelly it was compare to my old Littermaid. I am not sure if it is the quality of the plastic or the absorbency of the crystal, but this doesn’t seem to hold the odor. You can also use other non-clumping crystal litter if you can’t find the Petsafe refill bags. This is better for you wallet and the environment!

Perfetto per la lettiera

El objetivo es ahorrar dinero, con la comodidad de tener limpio el arenero en todo momento. Con esta bandeja, tendrás que quitar las heces todos los días, o cada dos días. Si tardas más, las heces caerán hacia fuera. El motivo no es que tenga un compartimento de excrementos más pequeño que las desechables. Me explico: En realidad, el tamaño de ambos en longitud es el mismo, ya que viene determinado por la caída de la solapa de la trampa del arenero, que es la solapa donde enganchas el labio con imanes. Además, con esta bandeja, la altura del compartimento es MAYOR que con las desechables, ya que es la propia solapa de plástico del arenero que se levanta y cae cuando llega el rastrillo, y esta solapa tiene más altura que la desechable. En la bandeja desechable, existen dos solapas: La de plástico del arenero, y la de cartón que viene con la bandeja desechable. Esta solapa de cartón, es exactamente de la misma profundidad que la solapa de plástico, y alcanza la misma longitud que ésta, por lo que el tamaño del compartimento de excrementos no puede variar entre la bandeja desechable y la bandeja de plástico (Reutilizable). Por contra, en la de cartón, la solapa al ser plana, teniendo la misma longitud, tiene MENOS altura. Otra característica de la solapa de cartón, es que va unida por todo el canto lateral (Lado corto) de la bandeja de cartón, y cuando llega el rastrillo, y se levanta (Se levanta junto a la solapa de plástico del arenero), al estar unida por todo el canto, las heces no pueden pasar de ahí, REBOTANDO y quedándose almacenadas en el área de excrementos. Por lo que si llevas dos o tres semanas sin quitarlas, se acumularán sin rebosar fuera, ya que la solapa de cartón no lo permitirá. En la bandeja de plástico, al no existir esa solapa, el rastrillo empuja y puede llegar a aplastar las heces contra la solapa de plástico del arenero, y al levantar el arenero puedes encontrar que las heces ahí acumuladas han manchado la solapa del arenero, y, además, caen hacia el suelo ya que no existe esa solapa unida a la bandeja de plástico. Por eso, con esta bandeja de plástico, es conveniente retirar las heces de ahí todos los días, o cada dos días. Ésta es la explicación de que el compartimento de heces no es más pequeño. Pensadlo un poco, y os daréis cuenta. El tamaño del compartimento no viene definido por la bandeja usada, sino por la solapa de plástico del arenero que se levanta cuando viene el rastrillo. - Con la bandeja de cartón, hay dos solapas protectoras de olor: La de cartón plana que sirve de tope para las heces, y la de plástico del arenero que nunca llegará a tocar las heces. - Con la bandeja de plástico, no existe esa solapa plana, siendo sólo la solapa del arenero la que protege del olor, y que puede mancharse con las heces si no retiras las heces con frecuencia. Tengo dos soluciones que probaré: 1. Cortar la solapa de cartón y adherirla a la bandeja de plástico, de forma que se pueda unir a los imanes de la solapa de plástico, y funcione igual que en las bandejas desechables. 2. Adquirir una bandeja de arena transparente, que he visto que viene con bandejas de cartón de mala calidad, y que esta solapa viene separada de la bandeja y se una a ésta por unas tiras de velcro. Así, tendría ya la solapa en el tamaño correcto para adherirla a la bandeja de plástico por el lado corto, de forma similar a como se une en las bandejas de cartón. Dicho esto, está claro que si no te gusta manipular las heces de tus gatos, tienes dos soluciones: 1. La primera solución es usar las bandejas desechables, más caras y más cómodas. Los lujos se pagan caro. Si tienes dinero para una bandeja automática, seguro que tienes dinero para pagar estos accesorios desechables lujosos. 2. La segunda solución es no tener gatos. Quizás no debas tenerlos, si no eres capaz de cuidarlos como es debido, de ver sus heces, el color y olor de su orina, y si ves o hueles algo fuera de lo común, llevarlo al veterinario porque quizás tenga un problema de salud. Yo soy de la tercera solución: Comodidad para tener el arenero limpio durante todo el día, pero estar pendiente de lo que sucede con mi gata. Otro objetivo del arenero ScoopFree es poder estar varios días sin atenderlo, por ejemplo, cuando me voy de viaje. Imagino que éste es el objetivo principal de los clientes cuando compran este arenero. Mientras no solucione el problema de la solapa, cuando tenga que ausentarme más de dos noches, utilizaré una bandeja de cartón (Desechable). La de origen la usé solamente durante una semana, hasta que me llegó la bandeja de plástico. Ahora, la tengo limpia, y guardada. Con esta bandeja de cartón, el control de olores y de rebosamiento de las heces, se logra con la solapa de cartón plana que trae incorporada. Es fácil trasladar los cristales de la bandeja de plástico a la bandeja de cartón. Después de regresar, restauraré los cristales a la bandeja de plástico, y limpiaré la bandeja de cartón para un próximo uso. Así, conservo la calidad de la bandeja de cartón por mucho tiempo. Mientras no me vaya de viaje, ahorraré dinero con la bandeja de plástico, retirando las heces a diario, removiendo los cristales para que iguale la absorción entre ellos, y verificando la salud de mi gata, según el tamaño, y calidad, de sus excrementos. Y a la vez, disfrutaré de ver cómo mi gata tiene en todo momento su arenero limpio de excrementos. Conclusión: No compres esta bandeja si no te gusta manipular las heces. He leído comentarios que dicen "Pongo una estrella porque con esta bandeja tengo que limpiarla, y es lo contrario a la filosofía de ScoopFree, volveré a las desechables porque no soporto limpiar una bandeja maloliente". Pero hija mía de Dios, si eso ya lo sabías cuando comprabas esta bandeja: Hay que limpiarla, y por cierto, es fácil de limpiar. Pero si tanto te va a molestar cuidar de tus gatos... ¡No la compres! Si quieres estar todo el día libre, sin polvo de arena aglomerante en casa, y sin tener que bajar todos los días la pesada bolsa de basura con la arena aglomerada utilizada por el pipí y las cacas de tu gato... Ya que sólo tirarás a diario la caca sin más... Y no te importa retirarla cada día con una pala... ¡Ésta es tu bandeja!

Very helpfull

Très pratique et économique comparé au recharge qui coûte trop chère

Kinda expensive but better than buying refills. I guess in the long run it’s worth it. I buy silica litter at my local pet store which is much cheaper than purchasing from this company. They even have the same blue silica litter that looks exactly like this brand or they have the one which is prettier and finer than the large chunks of silica. The tray is also easy to clean. So far I’m basically looking at this as an investment and my peace of mind that there’s no smell and one less thing to do when cleaning my cat litter everyday. More time to spend loving my kitten. 😊🥰☺️
