This litter box is sturdy and works great in my entry way. I originally had the round planter litter box, and found the bottom half of it fit perfectly inside, so I did not need to buy a new pan. I did not use the divider though. I put contact paper down in case of a miss, but the planter base has very high sides, so I am not too concerned. This product was easy to put together, and is good quality and is a nicer piece to look when entering my home then the planter was.
