Fairly easy to put together. Sturdy when complete. Looks great, like an actual piece of furniture.  I have 8 cats so I have many litter boxes but this is the first covered one so I was a little worried they wouldnt take to it but they love it. They were inside it before I even finished putting it together and used it almost immediately after adding litter. The liner is a great added touch and has already saved the day. It also cleans up nicely. Overall, Im very pleased with the purchase and am considering adding another very soon.
