Awesome Item!!!!!
Date: November 17, 2009
"In the past, I always used the regular litter, but I now switched to clumping litter and bought the Litter Locker Plus. I am so happy with this item. It works marvelously and does exactly what it states. There is no smell and it is so easy to use. I recommend this item to anyone who has cats. You will love it."

Best at hiding odor
Date: November 13, 2009
"It doesn't hold as much litter at one time as the litter Champ but it hides odor better. I definitely recommend the Litter Locker."

Great for small spaces
Date: October 28, 2009
"This product greatly increases the amount of times I can clean the box without having to stink up the trash can and take it out. I live in an upper floor apartment so having to take the trash out almost daily due to kitty litter was a huge waste. This solves that problem. For two cats I can use it for about a week without taking it out. I can't smell litter anymore which is great. The only downside is the handle that you turn seems a bit flimsy so I wonder how long it will last."

So far so Great!
Date: October 27, 2009
"Easy to assemble, very convenient design. One suggestion I would make is for a better warning system to let folks know when a replacement cartridge is needed. Prior to purchasing this, I read several other reviews about some messy experiences when the time came to change the cartridge. Though I only have one cat, I am always paranoid that each day's turn will be the last!"

Awesome
Date: September 7, 2009
"Quality product. I now have two of these - one for each litter box. Helps reduce odor (until you have to take out the bag of waste), but allows you to go longer between taking out the trash."

Really works
Date: September 6, 2009
"Very satisfied. I have a very small space and would instantly smell the litter pan the moment I walked through the door. Scooping just made the garbage smell. With the Litter Locker there is no smell and I am not constantly running between pan and garbage."

Best purchase for owner
Date: August 24, 2009
"It's compact, easy to use and makes the litter box duty simple. Most products are for the cat; this one is for the owner and it's the perfect tool to make cat ownership a total joy."

Not worth it
Date: January 23, 2009
"It seems like a great idea. I mean not having to go outside everytime you clean the litter! Doesn't rotate with ease once a couple of "deposits" are in. Handle popped out when turning which just led to tangled bags. The best part about this was the large scooper which is the only part I kept."

Best thing since sliced bread!
Date: January 2, 2009
"I LOVE this product, and I've been telling my cat-owner friends all about it. It's like a diaper-genie for scooped waste. No more smelly kitchen garbage and searching for plastic bags. Scoop - turn the handle and don't worry about it for a few days at least. Then emptying it is quick and easy without smell or mess. The thick plastic keeps the smells in, so it doesn't make the trash smell. It's ingenious! The scoop is useless (I use a metal one), and I wouldn't bother trying to use the built in cutter (scissors waste less plastic bag) but otherwise, I LOVE it! I highly recommend this product."

best invention ever
Date: October 21, 2008
"I purchased the Litter Locker system about a year ago to help cut down on smells from my dear cat's litter. I must say it works wonders. I would recommend this product to anyone who has a cat. It really does trap them smells in the plastic bag! I absolutely love this. Don't hesitate to get this! I know there are a lot of gimmicks out there that don't work, but this isn't one of them. The Litter Locker sytem works!"

I like this almost as much as my cat!
Date: September 29, 2008
"It keeps away smells and it's easy. And if you learn a trick you can keep a refill going for about a month if you have only 1 cat. I don't turn the knob as far as it tells me too. It only wastes the plastic. I look through the open lid and only turn it till the waste is no longer in view. That means it can't let odor out of the unit but it hasn't wasted as much bag. I'm on 3 1/2 weeks with my refill this way with my one cat who pees a lot so I get good use out of it. Buy your refills online in bulk and save a lot of money. You are going to use them anyway so stock up. This makes apartment living with a cat much healthier, cleaner, easier and much less stinky!"

Great Idea
Date: August 4, 2008
"This had to be one of the best ideas for litter disposal, we're very happy with this. It really does eliminate the funky smell from the waste. Much better than using grocery bag after grocery bag. We only have one cat so the bags lasted us a good while and we had no problem finding the refills at our local PETCO. Really glad we came across this product."

Finally, no stink!
Date: July 29, 2008
"Before the Litter Locker, we would double or triple bag the cat waste in zip lock bags and still have an odor. I considered getting a Diaper Genie from a baby store until I saw the Litter Locker at Petco. Same concept, smaller scale. I read all the reviews and thought it was worth a shot. We love this gadget! We've used it over a week and there is NO SMELL. Thank you! We live in FL and putting the old bags of waste in the garbage in the garage wasn't a great option!! So far so good with the Litter Locker!"

Thought it would work better than it does
Date: July 27, 2008
"I purchased this item because my husband and I thought, "why don't they have a 'genie' system (like the diaper genie) for pets?" and then I found this one. I think that it wastes alot of the bag when you cut it off (to tie and dispose) and also for the inital set up/reseting of bag when you empty it. If it sits too long in the Litter Locker, it DOES smell! Granted, it's better than disposing in your kitchen garbage but, it does not keep odor out as well as I thought it would."

Great Product!
Date: July 20, 2008
"Since I was skeptical, I waited for a good sale to buy this. I wish I had bought it sooner!
It really does eliminate the odor of the used litter, and is easy to assemble and use (although the instructions are a bit unclear). For my 2 cats, I scoop the box daily and empty the Litter Locker once a week. The first refill lasted over a month.

Excellent litter solution
Date: July 20, 2008
"Although my apartment isn't very far from the complex dumpster, I really don't feel like going back and forth to throw litter away. I think this locker contraption is a blessing!
The initial setup can be a little overwhelming, but the directions are not that hard to follow. I have a feeling I will get the hang of exchaging the bags easier and easier with time.
There's no smell coming from the locker at all and I love the color I received because it nicely matches my living room. I think it's well worth the $22 I paid. As a bonus, it would've been nice if they included a second refill. I have yet to see how long exactly this first one will last.
