Keeps the litter out of view and keeps smell in pretty well.  We have in our living room.   The little entryway keeps litter from tracking.  Looks good with the rest of my dark furniture. Only downside is the magnets on the front doors are a bit flimsy and don't hold the doors closed securely.  May change those out as I have a cat that tends to scratch the sides of the inside to clean his paws and pushes the doors open.
