 Waste of money (even when it's free) July 24, 2003

OK, I know that's a non sequitur, but that should give you an idea of how useless this product is. I got this tent free when I bought the mega Littermaid litter box (which, despite some problems, I love). The tent comes with no instructions but the plastic pieces that support the tent fit together like Tinker Toys. (I'm not mechanical at all, but figured it out.) Once you get the plastic frame together, though, getting the tent over it is no easy task; the tent seems to be just a tad too small to fit well over the frame. I was frustrated enough at this, but once I figured I would have to remove the tent every time I wanted to change the plastic waste container in the Littermaid, I gave up entirely. The tent is currently taking up space in my garage. I ended up buying a custom-built plywood carpet-covered container that's big enough for both the Littermaid and the ramp. It has a lift-off lid and an opening for my two kitties, and it keeps virtually everything (including odor) contained -- I would recommend a unit like that over this flimsy tent.

Excuse my French, but this is a piece of crap. Right after I assembled it, my cat jumped on top and it broke. Pfft.

I bought this product from Amazon on 2/4/2004. The product is a piece of crap. I followed the instruction and tried to put it together. But the plastic tent is not the right size, and I can't zip the two pieces together. I called Littermaid's 1-800 number on 2/17/2004, the customer services rep (Carrie Murray, ext 3123) told me that they are just distributor and they are not responsible for any return. She even told me that it's Amazon's responsibility, not Littermaid's. After arguing for a while, I faxed my invoice over and she promised me they will take care of it. I haven't heard back from her since then. I wasted $25 on this junk. And I'm very upset at Littermaid being so irresponsible. So my advise is: DON T BUY IT.

I bought this product because my cat would leave litter everywhere because she would jump out through the side of her box instead of using the ramp. When I brought it home I proceeded to put it together, this took awhile. You have to snap together some very flimsy plastic rods that kept on coming apart everytime I thought I had it together. Once I finished the very shaky frame I had to put on the plastic cover, it zips on all the way around. It's not as easy as it sounds. Once I got it all set up, my cat investigated it, she was fine with it. Then after a week, I noticed that it was starting to cave in, I figured she had been sleeping on it. Then one day I found that the entire thing had collapsed because my cat was jumping on it, I took it apart and realized that the plastic rods had snapped in half. I was so angry because I had paid so much money for this thing. My other problem was that it was so huge and ugly. I might have my dad build one out of plywood, it would be a lot sturdier than this thing and I could just decorate it myself so it would look nicer. I really like the litterbox, but I hate the tent.

I bought this product at the store ... and I still think it was well worth it. Yes, as described in other reviews, it's somewhat flimsy and it is HUGE, but it's a tent for a cat litter box. I don't pull on it, jump on it or sit on it, (neither does my cat) so the fact that it's made of a cheaper plastic product doesn't really mean anything. It certainly seems strong enough to last, as long as you handle it with care. It helps tremendously with odor and cat litter on the floor. I am thrilled with this product - both the littermaid and the tent...
