I've had this for a year and a half now. Very pleased.
Pros:
- Size. My options were a little more limited just because I switched to the ScoopFree PetSafe automatic litter box, which is about 25x22 inches - a little bigger than your average box. This cabinet has a little privacy wall inside that I just didn't put in when assembling, making it the perfect size for the ScoopFree. There are a couple extra inches in room, length-wise, so I just leave a box of baking soda in the back.
- Cleanup. The whole top opens, and the doors on the front also open completely. Whenever I switch the litter I just sweep any wayward litter out the front doors and then wipe down the whole thing with vinegar and baking soda.
- Sturdy. I haven't had any issues with wobbling or things breaking. I've even stood on it to reach something high a couple times. The hinges are good quality. No squeaking yet.
- Looks nice. I got the white marble one and it's true to the image. You're not going to fool Mr. Warbucks into thinking this is an authentic solid marble piece, but it looks like a nice little cabinet. All the pieces fit together perfectly and were the same color, which is more than I can say for some others lol.
Concerns:
- Because the front opens up with doors like a cabinet, it's easy to get litter stuck in the corners around the hinges. Minimal issue.
- The "floor" of the cabinet is just a coated particle board, so your cat has problems missing the box when urinating, you may get some liquid damage to it. My cats currently don't have this problem, but my advice would be to get some kind of waterproof coating to put on the board itself, and then just get some standard bathroom caulking and seal up the edges. This shouldn't run you more than like, ten bucks. A little extra effort, but now it's not a problem for future you.
The vents are just some holes in the back.
This was a good purchase. I do recommend it. If somebody stole it, I would for sure buy it again.
