Does Neakasa M1 require special litter?
The M1 automatic cat litter box is compatible with clumping or scoopable litter, but not with highly absorbent, non-clumping, loosely clumping, newspaper, or wood pellet types.
Its filter sifts particles up to 3mm in diameter and 10mm in length. For best results, we recommend fast-clumping, granular litter such as bentonite or mineral cat litter.

Yes. The spacious open-top design provides plenty of room for larger breeds such as Maine Coons and Ragdolls to enter, turn around, and use the litter box comfortably.

⚡ 3-Second Contactless Disposal – Swift, hygienic cleanup without the mess.
🛠️ Easy Maintenance – Wide opening for quick litter refills and detachable parts for effortless cleaning.
✨ With Neakasa M1, enjoy a seamless, hygienic, and stress-free litter box experience — making every day more delightful for you and your feline friend.
Does Neakasa M1 cat litter box have a weight limit?
Neakasa M1 features open-top spacious design, it almost does not have a weight limit. But we recommend it for cats weighing 2.2- around 33 lbs for the best comfort.
If your kitty is less than 2.2 lbs, we suggest choose our special Kitten Mode to prevents automatic cleaning and ensure kitty safe.
Will my cat actually use M1 automatic cat litter box?
Cats are generally curious and tend to investigate new things. Some cats will do its' business after the automatic litter box is ready.
For other cats who have not adapted to the automatic litter box, you can add some used cat litter to help them get familiar with it (when replacing the litter box, it's recommended to continue using the old litter at first).
You can also place the M1 Automatic Litter Box in the same location as the original litter box.
Placing cat treats at the entrance of the litter box can encourage the cat to discover the new litter box.
For timid cats, it's advisable to manually clean for the first few days. Once the cat is familiar and comfortable, you can switch to automatic cleaning mode.
Can kittens use Neakasa M1?
Kittens weighing 2.2 lbs or more can safely use M1 in Automatic Cleaning mode. For kittens below this weight threshold, we recommend turning off Automatic Cleaning mode and enabling Kitten Mode. However, please note that the litter box will not be cleaned automatically in this mode.
When you observe your cat has used it, wait approximately 5 minutes for the waste to clump, then manually initiate the cleaning process by pressing the Clean button on the machine or through the App once or twice daily (ensure the kitten is not inside the machine when pressing the button).
This approach ensures your kitten's safety during their early encounters with Neakasa M1, while also relieving you of the need to manually scoop the litter box.
Can I use any type of bag in the waste drawer?
Yes, you can use any bag that fits in the waste drawer.
How much cat litter can be added to reach the MAXline?
When using the litter bin for the first time, you need to add about 5~6kg of cat litter. Ensure the litter fills within the scale range, avoiding exceeding 100% or falling below 50% of the scale capacity.
How often do I need to empty the waste bin?
Usually you only need to empty the waste container about 14 days for one cat.
You can also check the status of the waste bin on Neakasa APP in order to clean up the waste timely.
How does Neakasa M1 keep my cat safe?
To ensure your cat's safety, there are 6 pairs of swiping infrared sensors and 4 weight sensors inside the Neakasa M1.
It automatically pauses when a cat touches or enters into the device. While your cat is inside, the weight sensors will ensure that the device stays still until your cat exits.
Will Neakasa M1 still work when the internet is disconnected?
Yes, if the network is disconnected, Neakasa M1 will continue to work according to your previous settings. However, the cat’s activities will not be updated on the Neakasa APP.

I am extremely satisfied with these litter boxes! I bought two units because I have 5 rescued street cats, and managing the cleaning was a real challenge before. The Neakasa M1 Plus Open Top model is an absolute lifesaver for us. The fact that they are open-top made the cats adapt instantly without any hesitation, and the self-cleaning system works wonders, saving me a ton of time. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone with multiple cats who wants to get rid of the daily cleaning hassle!
The Neakasa has been an absolute game changer! Before getting it, I was scooping litter every single day and throwing everything into a garbage bag. Now, I only have to clean it out and refill it about once a week! It’s been working flawlessly for months with no issues at all. I love that it keeps track of when my cat uses it, monitors my cat’s weight, and lets me know when it’s time for cleaning. Even better, my cat is fascinated by it and loves watching it do its thing every time! It’s made my life so much easier, and I honestly wish I had bought one sooner. I would definitely recommend the Neakasa to any cat owner looking to save time and make litter box maintenance a whole lot easier! Thank you purrfectinfluencer for showing me this product.
I've had the robot for about 5 days so far, and there has only been one mishap that made a mess. Otherwise, it's pretty great. My only major issue with it is that I received the wrong color. I ordered a gray one, but I got a white one.
I've only had the device up and running for a little over a week, but so far it's working wonderfully. Now, I have a cat that makes it his goal to take all the litter out and this one has helped but not completely stopped it. Best one to deter it so far though.
I love this product! My cat is the best but I hate cleaning the litter! And fighting with my teenager for help makes us both crazy, so now I only have to fight with him once a month! So much better! My house feels so much cleaner now!
I purchased the Neakasa M1 so I would have a second automatic litter box running while I was away on vacation (I have a Litter Robot 4 and keep a regular litter box around for that picky cat). I am disappointed that it fills up a lot faster than my litter robot does. I generally only need to empty it once a week, the Neakasa I already had to empty it 4 days after setting it up (and yes the bottom part is fully extended).
I wanted to return it but the return policy sucks. I have to pay for shipping and it would end up being almost $200 to send that big box and the Airstep back. Customer service is good and quick to tell you all those disappointing answers.
It works for what it is, but if you have multiple cats (I have 3) don't expect it to let you go too long without having to empty it.
originally bought a robo litter box but my cat did not like it at all, i think the open concept design of this one is so much more comfortable for my cat. definitely helps with the smell and easier clean up. it was so easy to set up and love the app as well. i’ve had it for about a week, so i’m interested to see how it holds up.
This is my 3rd different brand of automatic litter box and I have to say, based on different factors, is my favorite.
My comparison is using a OneIsAll and a litter robot.
Price: for what I am getting, the box, the app and the free service the price wins out. Not the cheapest on the market but I think best for value.
Setup: easiest of the 3.
Sound: Definitely the quietest. I can barely hear it and it is only about 15 ft from my workspace.
Capacity: the waste drawer is easy to use and I think the volume is a bit more.
So far it’s the best at limiting litter from sticking to the rake mechanism. I thought it would be worse based on it being plastic. On both of the other stainless steel ones I had to treat the rake with a not stick product. The one specifically for this purpose is expensive and not that effective.
Smell: I think all three of them have been good, but the Neakasa has a stick on barrier that is meant to keep odor in I think. It also came with a replacement strip of it as well.
Safety: much better than the OneIsAll which I have seen my cats get in when it’s halfway upside down in cleaning mode. Litter robot is best at this.
Weighing: I have 3 cats. 2 which are very close in weight and I think it’s still learning. I put a camera above and I correct the name assignments. Litter robot no better, even with the camera as my 2 boys are hard to tell apart
Overall: I am really happy with the litter box. I had purchased 2 of the OneOsAll and one failed and was refunded by Chewy. I ordered the Litter Robots because they claimed to be FSA eligible, but were not with my company. They did take them back for refund with no issue, the price point is way too high.
If this other OneIsAll craps out, I’ll definitely replace it with the Neakasa.
I have just added a second cat litter box to my home.
After my older cat passed away, I stored my first box. When my daughter got a kitten, I brought it back out. The kitten took to it immediately. After several weeks, my husband decided to get a companion, for the first kitten. After getting another kitten, from a local rescue, the litter box was being used a lot. I decided to purchase a second box. Both are working great. Both are quiet, so quiet that it can put it into my parlor. I now have one in my laundry room and parlor. The closed in reservoir keeps my dogs from getting into the used litter.
I would recommend this product to anyone.
My cat is still getting adjusted to it so it is a bit early to leave a review. I like how it works and how it looks but the one who has to really like it is my cat Elly.
So far it's working great. Luckily my cats needed 0 adjustment because this was replacing a different automatic litterbox, so they weren't startled by the movement. I appreciate the ease of cleaning as I deal with fatigue issues that make it difficult to clean heavy/bulky objects, and I also appreciate the decreased risk of litter getting caught in the motor gears (which was why my old box needed replaced).
Very easy to set up and I really like the feature that shows when it was used and by which cat (by their weight). Also, really like the litter sensor so I know how much is in there at any time!
We have 3 cats weighing 9 pounds, 13 pounds, and 15 pounds. We were worried Big Chonker wouldn't fit but he does just fine. All cats took to the new box instantly and it has been working well so far.
We just started using the litter box because our kittens are only 4 months old and have only come to live with us for about 10 days. So far, they have both used it with very little prompting - only the original (old fashioned) litter box was put next to the Neakasa. Smart kitties that they are, they figured it out pretty quickly!! We are very pleased and look forward to having a continued good experience with the new litter box.
I was genuinely skeptical about switching to an automatic cat litter box, but the Neakasa M1 Plus has completely blown me away. It operates seamlessly, keeps everything fresh, and has saved me so much daily hassle. The technology and reliability are top-notch—it truly makes cat ownership so much easier.
I also want to give a massive shoutout to Susana from support team. When I ran into a minor issue with the unit, she stepped in immediately and resolved it with incredible speed and professionalism. Outstanding customer service is hard to come by these days, but Susana made the process effortless.
Overall, I am thrilled with this purchase and the fantastic support behind it. Highly recommended!
Works well as expected, my cats instantly used it!
Connecting application was managable but differed from what im used to so I struggled a bit there.
The unfolding of the tray could be a bit better shown in the instructions but overall im happy 100%
I love the Neakasa litterbox. It works great and it is always keeping me updated on the status of the litterbox. It is the only one that gives me the status of how much litter is in the box.
Terrible product and they know that! That's why they don't offer free return. Even having to pay an ark and a leg for the return, I did it and went back to litter robot!
real maximum hight when in operation is 632mm. Neakasa olease check and add this dimension in specifications. is important because my wife wanted to put the litter inside a furniture piece. we were lucky as you see here! the best automatic litter. we have three!
I have a 28 lb main coon. He can use it. It’s super tight. I wish they made a bigger size. But, now cleaning litter is a dream. It’s so fast and easy that I am thinking about getting another cat. Love it
I have only been using the litter box for a few days but I like Neakasa better than litter robot by Whisker. Less smell. Smaller footprint. My Siamese cat took to it right away. Notifications are super fun and helpful. So far so good. We'll see if the litter box can keep the smell away for a year or longer.
This is awesome. We are new to having cats and this is hands down a great product. Easy to set up, use and maintain. Our three kitties took to it nicley.
It was easy to set up. It is large but my cat took right ro it and if he jumps back in, the unit stops. Oh and dis i mention the smell??? What smell....waste container works great.
