"The right size, easy to follow instructions, and exactly what I was looking for my cats to have a private, but enclosed item."

— Norman

"This box is poorly designed and cheaply made. I would not recommend to others."

Prices hover near 40 dollars, which is a fair cost for the product. However when you consider the quality concerns, this produces price value problems. It's a solid choice for smaller cats but may not be as robust as some competitors. Purchasing this should be compared to other products in it's field.
