That is what the slots are for. Clean litter sifts back into the box and the clumps stay on the blade. Across 1,766 reviews nobody reports the slots being too wide.

It handles clumping and crystal litter well. With large pellets the slots are narrower than the pellets, so you will lift clean pellets along with the waste.

It is stainless steel, so rinsing it and standing it up to dry is enough. Leaving any metal tool sitting in damp litter is what marks it over time.

It has more weight to it than a plastic scoop, which is the point when you are pushing through a set clump, but it is still a one-handed tool.

Rinse in warm water after use and air dry. For a deeper clean, warm soapy water and a brush run along the slots.
