The plastic is very thin and flimsy & the globe cracked. There is always some kind of problem that causes it to stop mid cycle. And, the worst part is, that it smells. If I spend five hundred dollars on a litter box, I better not smell it at all. But they put holes in the bottom of the globe and holes in the waste collection drawer. Then they tell you to buy their overpriced carbon filters and it won't smell. But guess what, it still smells.
