Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Great product, but the rake will rust and get crappy (literally!), no matter what some other reviewers say. I recently bought another new one because of that and was determined to fix the issue. Even worse, if your cat does not properly cover their poop, it will stick to the rake and not go into the storage area and you will have to scrape it off. I have come up with a solution that works well for me. Cut down some plastic drinking straws to size, then split them lengthwise with a scissors. Put them around the tines of the rake (photo shows partial completion). You could also put them around the bottom of each tine if you wanted to. Keeps the rake clean, poop doesn't stick (at least so far, two months). And you can easily replace the straws if needed. UPDATE: I found some skinnier straws than I showed in the photo that work even better...
