Beware of this product and company
This product does not function as advertised. It consistently leaves behind large amounts of clumped litter stuck to the sides and grate, even after following all recommended setup steps, adjusting litter levels, and extending the post-use wait time to allow for drying. Despite these adjustments, the unit still requires frequent manual maintenance and cleaning far beyond what is presented in the promotional materials.
Additionally, the product’s rotation mechanism actually worsens odor control — it stirs the contents in a way that amplifies the smell of feces and urine rather than containing it. While I understand no automatic litter box is perfect, the reality of this product’s performance is nowhere near the claims made in Meowant’s marketing materials.
Following Meowant’s own return policy, I submitted a return request well within 30 days of purchase. After weeks of unproductive email exchanges, I was offered a mere $40 refund to “keep the item,” instead of being allowed to return it for a full refund. When I attempted to proceed with the return, I discovered it would cost a minimum of $216 to ship back — nearly the cost of the product itself.
According to Meowant’s policy, they claim the buyer must cover return shipping unless the product is “not functioning as designed.” Given that this unit clearly fails to operate as described, their attempt to shift responsibility and costs onto the customer is unacceptable and potentially in violation of consumer protection laws.
To make matters worse, the company’s policy allows Meowant’s own internal “quality control” to determine whether a refund will be approved — meaning the entire process is self-serving and non-transparent.
After reviewing similar complaints from other customers describing identical issues — both with the product’s functionality and Meowant’s handling of returns — I am now considering legal action. Others who feel they have been similarly misled or financially harmed may wish to explore collective legal remedies such as a class action.
In summary:
⦁ Inferior and misleading product performance
⦁ Uncooperative and evasive customer service
⦁ Ambiguous and selectively enforced return policy
⦁ Borderline deceptive business practices related to return costs
I strongly advise potential buyers to avoid both this product and this company. Based on my experience, engaging with Meowant will likely result in financial loss and unnecessary frustration.

Dear customer, thank you for your feedback. We are truly sorry to hear that your experience with our product did not meet expectations. We understand how frustrating it can be when a product doesn’t work as anticipated, especially when it comes to something as important as your cat's well-being.
We want to clarify that our return policy is publicly available on our website for transparency, and the return shipping costs are not charged by us, but directly by the carrier based on the return address. The shipping cost can vary depending on the location, and we encourage customers to check with the carrier for specific rates.
Regarding the product’s performance, we understand that each cat’s behavior and preferences may affect how the product functions. While we strive to design a product that works well for a wide range of cats, there may be variations in performance depending on individual usage.
We are always looking to improve our products and service, and we take customer feedback seriously. If you’d like further assistance with your situation, please feel free to reach out to us directly, and we’d be happy to continue working with you to find a satisfactory solution.

Unbelievable
I placed an order for the SC-01 model and after trying it decided I would most definitely be sending it back! It just wasn’t safe! When I pressed the child lock button it would still rotate, I would go to empty the litter box or waste bin and it would start rotating while the lid was open, and if that wasn’t enough the most disturbing thing was it started rotating with my cat inside! I reached out by email to customer service stating that my cat was terrified and not using it anymore and that the safety mechanisms were clearly not working. ( I did explain in my email to them what all had happened) they responded and asked if I would please try it again! I was surprised they’d ask me that and responded back and said no I want to return it! Then they said I would need to cover shipping because it wasn’t defective! What!? I replied you’re kidding how is it not defective when it’s not working? That’s when they responded asking if I could send a video with it moving while my cat was inside!! What!? Are you kidding me, like did I seriously just read this! As u can imagine I was shocked, angry, hurt, how could you ask me to do that? What kind of company what kind of person would ask that!? Don’t you know how dangerous that is!? Of course I responded saying absolutely not! And that I shouldn’t have to pay to ship it back and I can’t believe you’d ask me to make a video of my cat inside there with it moving that’s clearly not safe and unprofessional. Disappointed doesn’t begin to describe how I feel about them and I absolutely Do Not recommend ordering from them at all. I don’t know what I’m going to do but hopefully I can worn others!!
Response from MeowantOct 13, 2025
Dear customer, we’re really sorry for the frustration and concern this situation has caused. Our intention was never to put your cat at risk. When we asked for a video, we suggested using an object over 1.5kg to simulate the weight of a cat, not an actual animal. We understand how this request could have been upsetting and apologize for any confusion.

DO NOT BUY!!
I ordered a litter box from Meowant about a week ago. FIRST off the litter box is poorly put together and the instructions are AWFUL. The customer service is NON EXISTENT. They do not respond to you and they hide behind emails. I will NOT get another litter box from them, and I am filing complaints with the Attorney General's office for our state, and the BBB.
Response from MeowantOct 10, 2025
Thank you for your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about your negative experience with our litter box and customer service. This is certainly not the level of quality or support we aim to provide.
We understand how frustrating poor assembly and unclear instructions can be, and we sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. We take your concerns seriously and would like to help resolve the issues you’ve encountered.
We didn't receive email from you before. However, we have reached out to you by email. Please kindly check it and get back to us.
