First of all- a quick overview of what it is. The Litter Genie is essentially the same thing as a Diaper Genie but with some MAJOR improvements. Litter Genies are to clumping litter what Diaper Genies are to Diapers- a trash can designed specially to eliminate the odor from its contents.

The awesome thing about Litter Genie is that UNLIKE Diaper Genie, the Litter Genie WORKS! It's super easy to assemble, easy to use, has no extra clean up required, and it keeps the odor from the used litter out of my bathroom!
When I said the Litter Genie is easy to assemble- I meant it. I'm a mother of two with a full time job so my time is very limited. I was able to get the Genie out of the two boxes it was shipped in, assemble it, and have it in its spot in my bathroom in under the time it took to boil water for pasta. And now I have an excellent tool that saves me extra trips to the trash can with a smelly bag of litter- yay for time saved!
Speaking of saving time, I don't know about any other moms out there but the Diaper Genie model I had was sealed under its plastic lid with a cloth slider that you inserted the diapers through. If the diaper leaked it was a NIGHTMARE to clean up. No such problems with the Litter Genie. The only moving part (the sliding door seal) is protected by the trash bag. Should you miss the well proportioned chute (the opening is a little wider than the provided scoop) you simply wipe off the plastic ring surrounding the bag and you're ready to go!
Prior to the Litter Genie I was scooping my kitty litter into a plastic bag, carrying it to my trash can, and then having to take out the trash immediately because of how it smelled. My cat is NOT a small boy- and cleaning his litter box was a chore. Now, I simply scoop the clumps into the Litter Genie, close the lid and pull the handle. On trash day I open the base of the Litter Genie, cut and tie off the bag and drop it in the trash as it's going out. I will say that I'd advise spraying some air freshener when you open the Genie, or perhaps changing it outside as it does do its job at holding in the odors well.
Like I said, my cat is a big boy. He's part Savannah- and with out going into the realm of TMI his litter box can STINK. Before I got the Litter Genie I swapped to the Arm and Hammer Clump and Seal cat litter (I also HIGHLY recommend) and it was doing a fairly good job at keeping the odors down. The Litter Genie sealed the deal. I decided to really test the effectiveness of the Genie- and Orrin (my cat) was allowed meaty food which he LOVES but no one likes being around his litter box after he has eaten. And then my mother in law was invited over after I had dealt with the litter box. She doesn't like the litter box to begin with, and is always very quick to alert me if there's any odor. Her visit was blissfully lacking in such comments.
