Why do Plastic Litterboxes Always Smell?
Plastic is porous.
It absorbs urine at the microscopic level, where it can't be cleaned out.
Cat's scratches open up even more of these pores, causing much more urine to be trapped and a very strong smell to form.

Stainless steel doesn’t absorb anything.
So instead of fighting odor constantly, you’re removing what causes it in the first place.
