PETKIT's Product Lineup, Explained
Quick answer: PETKIT spans three categories with real naming pitfalls in each. Fountains: EverSweet Max (currently shipping, cordless) is a different, earlier product than EverSweet Ultra (now shipping too, ~$200-250, with an AI camera and per-pet facial recognition for individualized drinking data) — don't assume "Ultra" is just a marketing suffix on the same hardware. Feeders: YumShare Solo (dry food, camera-equipped, already established and purchasable) is fundamentally different from YumShare Daily Feast (a robotic wet-food feeder, a genuinely harder automation problem than dry kibble) — as of this writing Daily Feast still has no confirmed US retail price or on-sale date, over half a year past its CES 2026 unveiling, so treat it as announced, not yet buyable. Litter boxes: the line has renamed and re-numbered itself across Pura Max, PuraMax 2, and a rebrand to "Purobot" (Purobot Max 3, ~$400-500, and Purobot Max Pro 2, ~$440-700 depending on retailer/region) — check the exact current model name, not just "PETKIT litter box," before comparing specs or prices.
Verified 2026-10-11: re-researched all three CES-2026-era products this article originally described only as “announced.” EverSweet Ultra and Purobot Max 3/Max Pro 2 have since shipped with real, findable prices (added below); YumShare Daily Feast has not — confirmed via multiple independent searches (WebFetch to petkit.com is blocked in this environment, so sourcing is WebSearch-only, per the standing note on other articles) that it still has no confirmed US retail price or on-sale date, so the article now says so explicitly rather than letting it read as available by implication alongside the two that are.
PETKIT shows up across fountains, feeders, and litter boxes on this site, and its product names have a real pattern worth understanding before assuming any two similarly-named PETKIT products are the same thing with a version bump.
Fountains: EverSweet Max vs. EverSweet Ultra
EverSweet Max is a currently-shipping cordless fountain, already covered elsewhere on this site as a real, purchasable no-subscription option. EverSweet Ultra, announced at CES 2026, has since gone from announcement to real retail product — it’s now sold around $200-250 (list price closer to $250, with street prices commonly nearer $200-225). It adds an AI camera with pet facial recognition built into the fountain itself, tracking each individual pet’s drinking behavior and turning it into per-pet health insights, specifically useful for a multi-pet household where knowing which cat is or isn’t drinking enough matters. This isn’t a renamed version of the Max’s existing hardware — it’s a real capability jump (individualized tracking via camera, not just RFID-tag-based per-pet tracking the way some other fountains handle it), worth knowing before assuming “Ultra” is just a marketing suffix.
Feeders: YumShare Solo vs. YumShare Daily Feast
YumShare Solo is an established, camera-equipped dry-food feeder already referenced in this site’s budget guides. YumShare Daily Feast, also announced at CES 2026, is a different kind of product entirely: a robotic feeder built specifically to automate wet food — a genuinely harder engineering problem than dry kibble dispensing, since wet food spoils and needs different handling than a dry hopper. It stores up to seven sealed, single-use food pouches, opens one on demand, and discards it (with UV sanitizing between portions) if uneaten within 48 hours. Unlike EverSweet Ultra, which moved from announcement to shipping product within the same several months, Daily Feast still had no confirmed US retail price or on-sale date as of this update — treat it as a real, demoed product that isn’t yet something you can actually buy, not a step up from Solo you can shop for today. There’s also a real supply-chain wrinkle worth knowing before it does ship: its pouches use a proprietary format, and at its CES 2026 debut only one outside company was making compatible pouches — so its usefulness out of the gate may depend on how many food brands actually adopt that format, not just on the hardware itself.
Litter boxes: a genuinely confusing naming history
This is the part worth being most careful about. PETKIT’s litter box line has gone through multiple generations and a rebrand, not just simple version numbers:
- Pura Max — the original in this line: a 76L cylinder with a 16-inch square litter bed, a 7L waste bin rated for roughly 15 days of use for a single cat, supporting cats up to about 18 lbs, and an xSecure safety system combining infrared detection and weight sensors specifically to avoid cleaning while a cat is still inside.
- PuraMax 2 — a newer generation adding multi-cat comfort features on top of the original’s core design.
- Purobot Max 3 / Purobot Max Pro 2 — a rebrand of the newest generation under the “Purobot” name rather than “Pura.” Max 3 (no camera, identifies cats by weight) runs roughly $400 on sale or $500 at PETKIT’s own regular price; Max Pro 2 adds an AI camera for health tracking, similar in spirit to what EverSweet Ultra adds to the fountain line, for roughly a $100 premium over the Max 3 — actual retailer prices for the Pro 2 range from around $440 on a US deal listing up to roughly $700 direct from PETKIT depending on region and promotion, so the gap between the two models varies more by where you buy than the generation difference alone would suggest.
The practical takeaway: “PETKIT litter box” alone doesn’t tell you which generation or naming era you’re looking at, and specs (capacity, safety sensor design, AI features) genuinely differ across them. Check the exact current model name against its actual specs before comparing prices between listings — the same “qualifier mix-up” risk this site has flagged for Furbo’s and PETLIBRO’s lineups applies here too, arguably more so given the mid-line rebrand.
Bottom line
Across all three categories, treat a PETKIT product name as specific, not generic — EverSweet Max and Ultra are different fountains with a real capability gap, YumShare Solo and Daily Feast solve different feeding problems (dry vs. wet food automation) rather than being tiers of the same product, and the litter box line’s rename from “Pura” to “Purobot” mid-generation makes checking the exact current model name essential before comparing specs or prices between listings.

Frequently asked questions
Is the PETKIT EverSweet Ultra just a renamed EverSweet Max?
No — they're different products, and both now actually ship. EverSweet Max is a currently-shipping cordless fountain. EverSweet Ultra, announced at CES 2026, is also now shipping — around $200-250 depending on retailer — as a new model with an AI camera and pet facial recognition built in, tracking each individual pet's drinking behavior and turning it into per-pet health data — a real capability jump specific to the Ultra, not a renamed version of the Max's existing hardware.
What's the difference between PETKIT's YumShare Solo and YumShare Daily Feast?
A fundamental one: YumShare Solo is a dry-food feeder with a camera, an established, purchasable product in PETKIT's lineup. YumShare Daily Feast, announced at CES 2026, is a robotic feeder built specifically to automate wet food — a genuinely harder engineering problem than dry kibble dispensing, since wet food spoils and requires different handling, and the food itself comes in sealed, single-use pouches built to PETKIT's own proprietary format rather than regular cans or pouches. Unlike EverSweet Ultra, which has since shipped, Daily Feast still had no confirmed US retail price or on-sale date as of this update, so don't assume it's purchasable yet just because it was announced alongside products that are.
Why does PETKIT's litter box lineup have so many confusingly similar names?
The line has gone through multiple generations and a rebrand: Pura Max (the original, 76L cylinder, 7L waste bin, rated for roughly 15 days of use for one cat, cats up to 18 lbs, with an xSecure safety system combining infrared and weight sensors), followed by PuraMax 2 with additional multi-cat comfort features, and a rebrand under the "Purobot" name for newer models — Purobot Max 3 (~$400 on sale / ~$500 regular, no camera, cat-ID by weight) and Purobot Max Pro 2 (~$440-700 depending on retailer, adds an AI health-tracking camera for roughly a $100 premium over the Max 3). Check the exact current model name against its specific specs before comparing prices — "PETKIT litter box" alone doesn't tell you which generation you're looking at.
What does PETKIT's xSecure safety system actually do?
It combines multiple sensor types — infrared detection, weight sensors, and an accident-protection system — specifically to avoid the failure mode this site has flagged elsewhere as the most serious safety concern for self-cleaning litter boxes: misjudging whether a cat is still inside before starting a cleaning cycle. This is the same category of safety mechanism as Litter-Robot's anti-pinch/weight-sensing systems, just PETKIT's specific implementation of it.
