self-cleaning litter box? (lemmy.d.thewooskeys.com)

Does anyone have any experience with self-cleaning cat litter boxes? The ability to connect one to Home Assistant doesn't really seem useful to me - maybe it would be nice for HA to alert you when the litter box needs to be changed. But I'm really just curious if any particular model of self-cleaning litter box is any good - even by itself, without any "smart" features. We now have 4 cats and it would be nice to not have to clean litter boxes manually 1-2 times every day.

I've been having tons of issues recently with the pinch sensor on my LR3. Basically it'll stop rotating mid cycle and I have to either take it apart and clean the sensor or sometimes just power cycling works.

If that's not an issue on the LR4, I'd be tempted to get one eventually
