Van Ness Large Enclosed Sifting Cat Pan CP66

Nothing is perfect but this box is close. I sift the litter every day. The way it’s made enables me to wipe one container with 409 before I drop the sifting box in it. This lets the 409 residue dry for 24 hours before the cats are exposed to it. So you pour the used contents into the sifter, wipe the empty and then drop the sifter into the one you just wiped. Boxes stay very clean. If you have any odor at all, you are just not doing it right. One of my male cat pees high so cleaning is necessary.

I use one 22 lb box of un scented clumping Fresh Step litter for each box per month. Then, as I sift the used litter, I add a bit of litter from another new box. We have 3 cats and that means we buy 4 boxes a month. 3 fill the litter boxes and the 4th is used to replenish the litter that’s lost from sifting. 4 boxes of litter lasts a month and the litter is very clean throughout the month.

I’m 70 so I have a few things I do to help me deal with the heavy boxes. First, they are on an 8” tall platform. That keeps me from bending so deep. The platform is carpeted and there are strategically placed rugs on the floor. After sifting the litter, I vacuum the rugs with a Dyson cordless. The room stays very clean as do the boxes. Cats deserve a clean litter box. Anything less than daily sifting is like not flushing your toilet when you use it every time.

The cats sort out who uses which box. I’ve read that you need a box for each cat plus one. I don’t use an extra box but I think it’s fine because they get sifted daily. We never have odor, not ever, not one bit. But that depends on daily maintenance.

I said these boxes are not perfect. I’d love to see slightly thicker plastic. The 3 parts of the box can break on the rim after a year or so so I keep a spare box for replacement parts in the garage. But the price is reasonable so I don’t really mind that. The other issue is that the boxes are a bit heavy, 22 lbs each and at 70, my days of being able to manage are numbered. I’ll switch to a litter robot eventually. There are some bad reviews on those but I suspect that’s because people don’t change the litter as often as they should.

Overall, the VanNess system is about as well built and efficient as a litter box system can be. I want to emphasize that with about 5 minute of work each day, every day, thes boxes never smell. They are clean for the cats and with some cheap Amazon rugs, the floor stays litter free.

Excelente Calidad, la altura le da el fondo necesario para evitar reguero de arena aún usando sin la parte de arriba. El sistema de dos tinas con el colador hace q la limpieza sea mas fácil y ahorres arena. Lo volvería comprar definitivamente. El modelo anterior q no tenía el colador me duró casi 10 años.
El color me gustó si lo recomiendo casi no doy reseñas a menos q cumpla mis expectativas al 100 o de plano para evitarles un mal rato

I recently purchased the Van Ness Pets Odor Control Large Enclosed Sifting Litter Box, and overall, I’m quite satisfied with its performance. The design is sleek and the odor control feature works exceptionally well, keeping my home smelling fresh. The sifting mechanism is a game-changer, making the process of cleaning the litter box quick and efficient.

One thing to note, however, is that the size is a bit smaller than I expected for a “large” litter box. If you have a larger cat or multiple cats, you might find it a tad cramped. Despite this, my cat seems to be comfortable using it, and the benefits far outweigh this minor drawback.

In conclusion, if you’re looking for an effective and convenient litter box with excellent odor control, the Van Ness Pets Large Enclosed Sifting Litter Box is a great choice. Just keep in mind the actual size when making your purchase.

I like that this product for it’s good quality and it has the features it says it has. However, I’ve been using this for a week now and unfortunately, the holes in the sifter is way too big. A lot of fresh littler is sifting through when they shouldn’t. Today I went to the hardware store to buy a garden mesh(spent another extra $10) to cover the bottom of the sifter in order to stop the wastage. If they can product to have a small sifting holes, I would’ve given 5/5. But now I have to do a workaround to save the already ‘not cheap’ litter box.

It seemed like a cool idea to keep it clean and I liked that there was an extra layer. But what eventually happens is that it becomes dirtier and smellier faster. The litter seeps through the holes meant for filtering, and once that gets wet with cat pee it just stays that way unless you clean out the whole thing. And that’s just a whole lot of work.

Also the build quality is not great. Flimsy plastic parts
