Kirecoo Large High-Sided Stainless Steel Cat Litter Box, Open Top
Product description
For a cat that kicks litter or tends to urinate high, the Kirecoo Large High-Sided Stainless Steel Cat Litter Box offers an open pan with raised sides. Want an easier-to-scoop setup without an enclosed hood? Its smooth metal surface and open top are designed to make routine cleanup straightforward. The same pan may also suit small pets such as rabbits, though its dimensions are worth considering for the animal using it.
Tips for day-to-day use
The open-top layout leaves the litter area accessible and makes scooping easier than working around a cover. Its 5.9-inch sides are intended to help contain kicked litter and splashes, while the pan’s listed dimensions provide a useful check against the space available in your home. Because it has no enclosed top, it won’t provide the same covered setup as a hooded box.
The stainless steel surface is smooth and non-porous, so waste is less likely to cling to the sides than it can in a plastic pan. The manufacturer also says the material does not absorb or retain odors in the same way plastic can. For clumping litter, the product guidance recommends a deep layer and mentions bentonite clay as an option to help form clumps that are easier to scoop, results can depend on the litter used.

Why it’s worth it
The main buying distinction is material: this is a solid stainless steel pan rather than a conventional plastic tray. The non-porous surface is intended to resist lingering smells and make cleanup easier, and the rounded edges are designed to make the box more comfortable to pick up and handle. It’s a great fit if you want an open, durable-feeling pan with higher sides and a surface that does not absorb odors like plastic can.
Buyer feedback also tends to highlight the solid construction, ease of cleaning, odor resistance, and roomier feel, including for larger cats. Some customers mention using it with Pretty Litter, but that is an individual report rather than a stated compatibility guarantee. Not the best choice if your cat needs a covered litter area: this model is open at the top, and the listed dimensions should be compared with your cat’s size and available floor space before choosing it.
What to clarify
Does this box have a lid? No. It is an open-top pan, so it does not offer the enclosure of a covered litter box.
What material is it made from? The pan is stainless steel, with a smooth surface and rounded edges. The manufacturer describes it as non-stick and easy to clean.
What litter does the product guidance recommend? It mentions bentonite clay litter and recommends using a deep layer. This is guidance for reducing sticking, not a guarantee that every litter will behave the same way.
Final verdict
Choose this Kirecoo pan if you want a stainless steel alternative to plastic, prefer an open design, and need raised sides to help contain litter. Its stated dimensions and 5.9-inch height are the practical details to weigh against your cat’s size and the spot where the box will sit. If a covered box is essential, this design does not provide one.
