Petkit PuraMax 2 is $150 off now

Big portion My job as a pet technology writer is to set up automatic litter boxes and watch my cat go about his business. It’s not a glamorous feat, but someone has to do it. After testing more than a dozen, I’ve learned that not all are created equal.

I was impressed with all the automatic litter boxes I tested PetkitBut the PuraMax 2 is the litter box I recommend for most people. (For more Big Deal Days, be sure to check out our guide to the absolute best Prime Day deals of October 2025 and check in to our Prime Day Live Blog, where we’re tracking deals and trends throughout the events.)

It’s the fairest price point for the quality of everything I’ve tested. Regularly $500, it’s $150 off right now, putting it well below the price point of many similar models, like Garbage robot 4which is regularly $700.

I can’t believe I’m going to say this, but the PuraMax 2 actually smells good. This box has triple odor control, a closed litter box, and Odor eliminator accessory That’s sitting in the trash, citrus Deodorizing spray Which goes off after every cleaning and randomly throughout the day to ensure the litter box stays fresh.

The large, forward-facing opening design looks familiar to most cats, and both of my cats (including my 17-pound senior cat) took to this litter box with ease. When it’s time to refill, the bin rotates and the opening faces up to make filling waste easy without having to bend over or refill with smaller containers.

When a cat enters the box, its weight is displayed on the front, and the app logs each time it has been used, for how long, when the cleaning cycle starts and ends, and when the deodorizing spray is released. Owners can also change settings manually via buttons on the front.
