Necessity is the mother of invention that’s why for us and our cats, it is necessary to put their waste out of our house and give the best to our feline pets. It will be a big difference to our daily chores if all we have to do is just throw their dump away. Less cat poop smell and more enjoyable to play with our feline friends. These two cat litter boxes, Chillx and PetSafe ScoopFree litter box, are some of the most talked-about cat tech products, since I already tried these, I just want to share the comparison between them, and let you decide which one will you get.
Factors We Considered When Comparing Chillx VS PetSafe ScoopFree
These two cat litter boxes are both automatic. ChillX has an auto-cycle for thorough cleaning of the waste while PetSafe ScoopFree has a sensor to auto-clean the litter box after your cat leaves the box. Cats are comfortable getting on these boxes. Chillx has a shade and PetSafe has an open space. Chillx is great for minimalist styling, and PetSafe might fit in your room decor. In terms of convenience, both cat litter boxes made me focus on other cat parenting chores.
Design
ChillX AutoEgg Litter Box
The ChillX Auto Egg Litter Box, on the other hand, is very minimalist but still stylish, which is one of the many reasons why cat lovers choose ChillX over other automatic litter boxes. And looking at it’s name, you can imagine that it would look like an egg even without seeing it.
The PetSafe ScoopFree Self-Cleaning Litter Box comes with the litter box itself, the main raking unit, the litter bed, and one bag of free cat litter. This litter box is designed for maximum customer convenience because aside from not needing to scoop out the clumped waste anymore, all you need to do when the waste receptacle becomes filled with the clumped waste products is to remove the top of the litter box, then cover the litter bed, and throw the whole thing away, then replace it with a brand new litter bed that is already pre-filled with PetSafe ScoopFree’s very own cat litter.

Ease of Cleaning
ChillX AutoEgg Litter Box
The ChillX AutoEgg Litter Box, on the other hand, starts its cycle 5 minutes after your cat uses it. It also runs its auto-cycle every 3:00 and 9:00 am and 3:00 and 9:00 pm which we can take as an advantage as this helps in thorough cleaning of the clumped waste.
The drawback on this litter box is that it does not do its job of cleaning really well as you will still see small pieces of litter clumps on the litter bed, and it can also leave quite a mess on the sides along the track of the rake. It is therefore best to still clean up after this and throw away the filled up drawer once a week, at best.
The PetSafe ScoopFree Automatic Litter Box is all about convenience as the whole litter tray itself is a disposable container: just remove and replace with a new litter box, pre-filled with PetSafe cat litter.

Size
ChillX AutoEgg Litter Box
The ChillX AutoEgg, on the other hand, measures 30 x 19 x 17 inches which if compared to the Litter-Robot, makes it obviously much smaller and the litter tray measures 11 ½ x 13 inches and with a litter tray this small, it can make your cat feel uncomfortable while using it.
The PetSafe ScoopFree LitterBox is designed to only cater a single-cat household and you might need to either buy another one or replace the disposable litter tray as necessary. This automatic litter box measures 28.5 x 20.5 x 11.5 inches.

Smart Features
ChillX AutoEgg Litter Box
The ChillX AutoEgg offers a health tracking feature that shows how many times your cat has used the litter box, the amount of waste products in the waste container, your cat’s weight, etc. The downside to this feature is its inconvenient location; it is located inside the litter box so you will have to remove the top cover for you to be able to check the display screen.
The PetSafe ScoopFree Litter Box has a sensor that detects if your cat has used the litter box and has a time delay for about 20 minutes that starts when your cat leaves the litter box, and this delay gives more time for better absorption before it starts auto-cleaning the litter box.
The rake starts to pull all the solid waste products into the receptacle and this cycle only takes just over a minute.

Conclusion
PetSafe ScoopFree does well in doing the main goal of pulling cat litter into the box. It cleans better, and there are no more additional cleanups unlike in ChillX, although ChillX’s auto-cycle is convenient, some cat clumps are still left there. Petsafe’s box is sturdier and has a larger tray. However, there are better self-cleaning litter boxes available out there.
