Petmate Arm & Hammer Large Rimmed Litter Pan
The Petmate Arm & Hammer Large Rimmed Litter Pan is a market‑leader for training because its extra‑large footprint and high rim make it an affordable, no‑frills solution for multi‑cat households and litter training. Built‑in baking soda odor control and rugged molded plastic keep ongoing costs low compared with pricier covered or designer boxes, though it sacrifices portability found in travel‑oriented models on this list. For training at home it often outperforms compact travel options by offering more space and simpler cleaning for repeat use.

IRIS USA Portable Travel Litter Box
The IRIS USA Portable Travel Litter Box earns its place for travel and short‑term training thanks to a lightweight, folding design that makes it easy to stash in a car or suitcase and inexpensive to replace. Its portability and low price point make it a better financial choice for owners who need an on‑the‑go solution than bulkier, higher‑end boxes like the ModKat, though those models may provide superior odor containment and durability for daily home use. Compared with the roomy Petmate pan it trades capacity for packability, appealing to travelers and temporary training setups.

Review Summary
"The IRIS USA Portable Travel Litter Box is frequently lauded for its compact, lightweight portability and ease of cleaning, making it handy for trips, but many reviewers note it feels flimsy and is too small for larger cats. It's popular for short-term or travel use rather than daily long-term use for big cats."

Kitty Go Here Senior Cat Litter Box
The Kitty Go Here Senior Cat Litter Box is designed specifically for older or mobility‑impaired cats, with a low entry, generous internal space, and stabilizing features that reduce stress during training or transitions. Its ergonomic, easy‑access design gives it a technical advantage over taller rimmed pans like the Petmate for seniors, while typically costing less than high‑end enclosure systems; it is however less optimized for travel than the foldable IRIS or Petego models. For owners training or reintroducing cats with limited mobility, it balances comfort and value without unnecessary complexity.

Petego Pet at Work Portable Litter Box
The Petego Pet at Work Portable Litter Box positions itself as a premium portable option with better odor control and a sturdier foldable frame suited for frequent travel or office use. Though it commands a higher price than budget travel boxes like IRIS, its technical build quality and tighter containment make it more durable and hygienic for repeated use, bridging the gap between cheap disposables and home‑grade boxes. Compared with the ModKat, Petego emphasizes mobility and concealment over long‑term decorative design, appealing to users who travel often or need a discreet, reusable solution.

ModKat Flip Litter Box
The ModKat Flip Litter Box is the premium choice on this list for training cats to use covered or top‑entry setups, offering a modern flip‑top design, reusable liners and superior odor control that justify its higher price.
