Transcripts

what is

[Music]

it I've been using self-cleaning SL

automatic glitter boxes since 2015 and

I've been reviewing them on this channel

since 2020 my first one the cat gen

wasn't used much by my cats but the

little robot 3 which I bought in 2018

was a big hit with my five cats at the

time hence the name of the

channel some people criticize cat owners

who use them as lazy you know just to

make things easier for them rather than

actually better for their cats I

strongly disagree with this thanks to

them my cats always have a clean litter

bed to use I've got seven cats now and

they use two littleit robot fours unless

you work from home all day every day

it's possible to keep manual boxes clean

for them when you're not home even with

multiple boxes well I suppose if you had

like 10 maybe you could do that cats

don't want to use dirty boxes and these

machines mean they don't have to anymore

over the last four years I've tested

more than 20 different machines across

five videos most of them haven't really

been great and have had numerous issues

urine leaks being the most common

problem in fact I've I've only really

recommended a handful of different

machines across the videos and some of

those have

caveats the things I talk about in every

review the most important factor for any

self-cleaning automatic litter box is

safety if there's any risk to my cats I

will absolutely not use them no matter

how good the rest of it is of those 20

plus machines I've only encountered two

that I don't consider 100% safe one of

them actually states in the instruction

manual that you shouldn't use it

unsupervised which is uh pretty

ridiculous as that defeats the purpose

of

it at the end of July there were a

couple of posts in myself cleaning

little box Discussion Group which shared

a video on Tik Tok from A lady called

Karly J Who described how her automatic

litter box killed her cat a beautiful

one-year-old simes girl called Moshi

yesterday

morning um we woke up me and my

2-year-old daughter and I went to find

my cat and she was

um hang hanging from

um her litter box it had closed on her

neck and her body was hanging out and

there

was red stuff um all over like

everywhere and she was

gone she didn't say what machine it was

but she did clarify in the follow-up

video that it wasn't an actual litter

robot but something she had bought off

of Amazon she didn't name it in this

video either but she did in the comments

her videos started to go viral but then

just a few days after they were uploaded

they were gone so I started to

investigate I needed to know if this was

real and if potentially deadly machines

were being being sold had already found

the one that she named on Amazon a few

days earlier sold under the brand AMS

toy astonishingly they even called it

litter robot by am's toy using whisker's

litter robot font this is absolutely not

a lit robot and it shows just how dodgy

this company is in a review section

there was a photo of one covered in

blood stating that it had killed their

cat it wasn't under her name but it had

to be her machine but after the Tik Tok

videos were removed that review no

longer had the photo on it and was now

positive then a few days later the

entire listing for the AMS toy was gone

there was a lot of very similar looking

machines and the different names on

Amazon and Wayfair in the US not just

under the AMS toy name after looking at

the photos and videos of them I saw a

potential danger so I had to buy one to

see for myself as Amazon and W in the UK

don't sell any of them I had to buy it

from AliExpress which I strongly

recommend never doing but I had no

choice it cost me

£165 80 for

shipping 4 weeks later it arrived it had

no brand on it and they didn't actually

send me the one I ordered which was

identical to the AMS toy version minus

the ears but what I received was still

the same fundamental design just with a

big old waist bin and no ears it's one

of the C generic machines which are

generally bought in bulk and branded by

a random company that's why you see so

many identical ones online with

different

names I immediately started testing it

straight out the box as shipped and had

my fears confirmed

[Music]

I don't even know how I'm supposed to

freak the key thing that makes this

machine dangerous is that the opening

for the entrance is a single piece of

plastic which is attached to the base

now this is fine for a machine that

rotates on the X

AIS but this this rotates on the Y AIS

so as it Cycles the opening closes

because that piece of plastic opening is

attached to the base and not split in if

a cat gets caught in it then there's no

[Music]

Escape if the opening was split in two

with the top part attached to the top

section of the machine like the

Furbulous for example that if a cat

somehow got caught in it then the top

would lift off and the cat could Escape

I say somehow because it shouldn't get

this far as these machines have safety

features which are designed to stop a

cleaning Cycle Stop the rotation if it

detects a cat the vast majority of

machines that rotate on the y-axis

during a cleaning cycle don't have a top

so there is no opening to close off the

machine that I bought does indeed have

three safety features there's the weight

sensors an infrared sensor

on the front entrance that will pause

the machine if a cat gets close to it or

enters it the third safety measure is

the pinge detector and this is very

important what this does if during the

rotation it detects resistance then it's

supposed to stop and move

back during these initial tests I found

that whilst the sensors would pause the

cycling if the weight and all infrared

sensors were triggered this was only for

a few seconds here I'm pressing down

putting my weight on it and covering the

infrared sensor both indeed pause

cycling briefly it should not resume

like this if a cat put its paws on the

front and peered in it should wait until

those triggered sensors were cleared

instead it just pauses briefly and

resumes which is making both sensors

redundant now a pinch detector should

getting a sense of resistance from here

and reversing but it doesn't it carries

on

God that really

hurts if you can see in my

hand the

marks I was over the free myself but

that really

hurts the inside rim of the plastic

opening is actually quite sharp too so

that combined with the fource and the

three safety measures all failing to do

their job made this machine incredibly

dangerous

once I had finished these initial tests

I connected it to the 2-year smart app

to see if there were any firmware

updates and yeah there was one so I

installed it and amazingly the sensor

started to work properly including the

pinch detector so were all my tests a

complete waste of time and it design

safe well no my machine sends me without

the new firmware and there was nowhere

any documentation of the manual and no

message from the seller to tell me to

make sure that I keep the firmware up to

date and to keep checking through the

app in fact the manual didn't have any

safety instructions whatsoever didn't

even say that there is a minimum weight

before you should turn on automatic

cycling to put your own branding on a

generic machine you generally need to

buy a minimum of 1,000 units with at

least a dozen machines sold under

different names of similar designs

including the amtoy that means there's

tens of thousand thousands of these

potential death traps out there maybe

even more and with a lot of them already

being used in people's homes from my

experience in my Facebook group I know

that many people don't bother with apps

which means if they have one of these

then they won't have the safer firmware

are the sellers on Amazon Wayfair and

AliExpress contacting people who've

bought them to tell them that they must

update the firmware well if this was a

single machine sold by a well-known

brand I'm sure they would but with with

all these different random companies

it's doubtful I just really hope that

they are then there's just how good are

the sensors how reliable are they

sensors fail especially cheap sensors

and looking at the build quality of this

I highly doubt the sensors are high

quality so if the sensors stop working

then you still have this incredibly

dangerous design of the opening closing

off with no way to

escape even if it didn't have these

safety issues it's a bad machine that's

badly made it doesn't have a litter mat

inside it just bare plastic a rotating

machine needs to have a non-stick litter

mat liner that when it Cycles it drops

in the middle to dislodge clumps without

one urine clumps will just stick to the

plastic it won't be pleasant about a

week ago k j messaged me in a Tik Tok

app in reply to one of my comments on

her videos we had quite a few

conversations and she told me what

happened why she had removed the videos

and I told her that everything is off

the Record it's just for my research but

she said she was happy for me to use

anything and she sent me photos and a

video of her beloved Moshi Amoy had

given her financial settlment to delete

the videos and the Amazon review as part

of the settlement Amoy would remove the

machine from sale her husband was unable

to delete the Amazon review so he

changed it to a positive one I'm

absolutely not judging her for taking

the assessment I don't know how much she

received she'd say that it wasn't much

but she did it under the assurance that

Amoy would remove their product from

Amazon the thing is should realize that

it sold under so many different names

and different variations of the same

design removing the AMS toy version

that's going to make a very little

difference Carly also told me about a

lady called Trish who messaged her to

say that her cat had also been killed by

the AMS toy machine and she put me in

touch with her Trisha's kitten Charlie

was 3 months old and over the minimum

weight that the manual States a cat

should be before turning on autocycling

on the 19th of July Trish got a video

call from her 13-year-old daughter

frantically telling her that Charlie's

neck was caught in the closed opening

when her daughter showed her on the

phone camera she could see that it was

already too late because she was far

away at the time Trish called the

non-emergency Le's phone number and an

officer came around had her daughter

wait outside and freed poor Charlie

placing his lifeless body on the bed he

was a rescue kitten and had been in his

forever home for Just 4 weeks before his

life was horrifically cut

short Trish also shared with me a review

on the now deleted AMS toy Amazon

listing about a cat that had also gotten

stuck in the opening but the owner was

able to rescue her in time but it

doesn't end there there was another

Facebook post in my Facebook group that

shared this story about a 5-month old

kitten that was found suffocated in the

waist STW I wasn't able to contact the

person who posted this originally or the

owner of the cat to confirm any of this

that it's entirely plausible that a

kitten could have ended up in the waist

bin and suffocated it's a horrible

thought I tried to contact toy to get a

statement but their online presence is

very minimal and especially now that the

Amazon listings are gone I did find

their YouTube channel so I left a

comment asking if they could get in

touch with me they didn't reply or email

me instead they deleted my comment

deleting seems to be their way of

dealing with things if you own an AMS

toy or any other similar design machines

then please update the firmware then

make sure you test it like I have in

this video but even if you can update

the firmware I just don't think you

should use it anymore I hope this video

can help get all of them removed from

sale everywhere and get to the people

who already have them to warn them

Amazon Ware must act and act fast and

remove all of them the ones on eBay and

AliExpress will be a lot harder to stop

being sold but I hope they are I

couldn't return the dangerous machine to

AliExpress for a refund this despite the

listing sating free returns they

insisted that I pay for the return

shipping I got some quotes sell it back

to China because it's so big and so

heavy the very cheapest that I could

find was

£236 and my refund would be

£240 so I send it back I'd get £4 back

great so yeah don't buy from AliExpress

don't buy these generic machines don't

buy these Brands which have all these

random names buy from recognized Brands

ideally with a history of making

selfcleaning automatic litter boxes and

if they don't have a history at lease

they have made other electronic cat

products and not just some startup and I

would also be careful about anything on

Indiegogo because these are beta

machines and you are going to be testing

them I'd always recommend waiting at

least a year after the machine's been

out to let it all settle in and be much

better do your research check out

reviews there's lots of them out there

but you can't trust a lot of them

especially the Amazon ones a lot of them

are fake there's ones which are been

paid for in exchanged for the product

and obviously YouTube reviews there's

mine and those are incredibly thorough

and I completely stand by them so check

those out there are other videos on

YouTube some of them are very good but

some of them aren't especially the ones

which say they rev viws but they clearly

been paid for by the company if you've

been paid to make a review it's not a

review it's a commercial I was really

unhappy with the safety features of the

poer X5 in my review of it is it any

better now a little bit as they've added

some firmware which only extends The

Rake out fully if there's enough litter

but they're still insisting that it's

safe for cats of any size including

kittens and um ferrets that's absolute

nonsense there's no machine should be

used by cats under a certain weight with

auto cleaning on they do say in the FAQ

on their website put on the fence when

using it with them this isn't mentioned

in the Manual's basically non-existent

safety instructions cats and especially

kittens as you know are notorious for

getting themselves into all sorts of

pickles as shown in this Tik Tok video

from March if the bin lid closes on a

kitten in the waist bin there's no way

they could get out without intervention

from a human poer need to stop saying

it's safe for kittens how is this safe

that could have been a kitten a tiny

kitten they claim this is safe for

kittens you got thrown into the waist

basket

Dusky and that could have closed on you

and you could have suffocated in there

there are very few sensors in the X5 I

was told the reason is by the CEO poer

the man who threatened Tumi said he

found machines that kept stopping during

a cleaning cycle annoying he trusted in

his machines mechanics and a cat's sense

of

self-preservation right please don't let

what happened to Charlie and Moshi put

you off buying self-cleaning litter

boxes they are safe well the vast

majority of them are please still make

sure you maintain them and keep them

clean as I've said many times on the

channel the little robot fors are easily

my favorite so cleaning litter boxes and

they are packed with safety features

entry sensors weight detection pinch

detectors and even sensors in the waist

bin to detect

movement and if the LZ robot 4 detects

any issues with any sensors then it will

tell you through the app and it's light

display on the front and it won't

autocycle until the issue is resolved

many of the new machines have the waist

been inside the cylinder which means

there's no openings which makes them

super safe the downside is having the

waist spin there as you don't have any

waist bin F detectors and the bins tend

to be really quite small my favorite

budget machine is now the new Fury taale

which is made by UB te who also make my

previous favorite the aobo otherwise

known as the meow want

sc01 it's super safe pretty nice size

inside and the waist compartment is a

bit bigger than the others although

there's still no pin for sensor I will

be covering this in a review as soon as

I can along with my new L robot 4 review

which will cover my 2 and 1/2 years of

using them as well as the surprisingly

great new litter Auto refilling litter

Hopper accessory if any of my videos

have been helpful and please use your

filet links in the description including

one that will give you $50 off the

little robot 4 it helps me make videos

like this and buy machines to test and

review and if they have really helped

you then please consider using the

thanks button below the video I really

appreciate it that's it from this sad

but important a video I hope to see you

in a happier one

soon is it funny yeah
