I love this piece. It hides the cat litter well. It's a little plastic-y looking, so having it in a corner is better than having it in the middle. You don't want to place it in a room where people can see in it - because the opening is very large. Any size cat can get in that, though - so that's a great thing. 
We bought it for our living room, but are moving it to a different location - still love the piece.
