Putting this together was tricky, and I never have trouble assembling items. I will try to walk you through it. Make sure you keep the instructions that come with it and read them along with what I am writing. My instructions were stapled incorrectly and it took me a little while to figure out that step one was on page 3...so read very carefully.
Step 1 First you can attach the towel rod to either the right or left. I chose not to, because mine is sitting in my bedroom. If you want the rod on the right (as you are facing the product, then attach it to panel B. If you want the rod on the left, then attach it to panel A. The side with the paneling in the wood is the outside. It is easy to attach. Put the rod through the wood, (paneling side out), then put on a washer and then use the nuts.
Now to put the box together.
Step 2 Attach locking bolts into the two outside holes on the inside of panel B at the end that has the curve to it. The inside is the side without the paneling. Screw them in using your hands and then use a Philips screwdriver to screw them in. Then put the wooden dowel in the hole in the middle.
Then take panel D and turn it so the side with the little groove in it lines up next to the same groove in panel B. (D is the bottom panel, and the part that hangs down is the front...it is easiest to line them up so the grooves will be next to each other) The legs of B stick up in the air (the aren't really legs, they are the top section of B and that really confused me for a bit). You attach the two pieces by sliding D onto the two locking bolts and the dowel. (The dowel doesn't fit in tightly, so be careful not to let it fall out). Once you have the two pieces together, take the SMALL cams and then twist them so the part of the locking bolt that sticks out, fits into the notch in the cam. BE CAREFUL TO USE THE RIGHT CAM! I didn't realize until I had to undo the whole thing, that there were different size cams. Turn the cam until you find the point where it feels like it sits in over the bolt. Once the cam is in, turn it gently with your screwdriver until it is tight. It doesn't take many rotations until it is tight. I think, one to one and a half rotations. Don't over tighten. Tightening too much doesn't make it stronger. You aren't screwing something in, you are twisting the cam so it covers the locking bolt. You do have to get it in snugly, but be gentle.
Then put the little brown screw covers into the cams. You don't have to, the screws are only seen from the inside, up to you.
Step 3 The instructions then say to take panel G and slide it in the groove. It won't stay in there very well, don't worry, panel A will hold it in better.
Step 4 Put the locking pins and the dowels into panel A the same way as you did to B. Attach A to panel D the same way you did with B. The section with the little groove will be lined up with the grooves on panel D. Before you put in the cams (Use the small cams!) and snug it all down, adjust it so you have panel G in the groove properly. It is a little tricky to get it in there, as it keeps trying to jump out. I did it myself, but another pair of hands would have made it easier. You certainly don't need anyone else to help if you don't have a person handy. Part G is the back of the unit, and the side with the sticker on it is the inside. Look at the instructions to see how it all slides together.
Put the screw (cam) covers into the cams if you want, again, this is the inside and you won't see those screws.
Step 5 was on the back of page two...so again, read carefully. Attach the knob to the outside of Panel E. The outside is the side with the paneling.
Step 6 insert 4 locking bolts into part C. Do NOT put the dowels in part C. If you do, when you try to put part C down, they will fall out and you will have to crawl under the couch to find them. Instead, put the dowels in the top of parts A and B. Then, put panel C down over the dowels and lining up the 4 locking bolts into the holes. The notches are there so the C fits around the little legs. (I thought this was all going to be the bottom of the thing, but actually it is the top of the unit). The magnet on part C is the front.
After you have part C in place, and BEFORE you put in the cams, attach the door, part E. It is easy, you just have to line up the little pegs in the holes, but if you snug down part C, you can't get the door in. Make sure the magnet on part C lines up with the metal piece on part E.
Step 7 insert the SMALL cams and snug them down. This time it is a little harder because you have to reach into the box and do it by feel. But, you have down a bunch of these cams by now and you are a pro! It won't be that hard. Just make sure you twist them right so they can be screwed down. Up to you about those pesky brown cam screw covers.
Step 8. (Almost done and it is easier from here.) Put the locking bolts into panel F. This is the top of the unit. The instructions don't say, but there are three sides that have a little lip on part F and one side that is flat. I chose to put the flat side in the back, but it would work either way. If you don't put the flat side in the back, the unit will stick out a little from the wall. Ok...got those locking bolts in place...now put F into the little legs that stick up. NOW, it is time to use the BIG cams. If you got this far, you should have 2 small cams and 5 large cams left. (The 2 small cams are extras and there is an extra large cam too.) Put the large cams into the legs, turn, and tighten. NOW, you want to be sure to use those little brown cam, screw cover things. These holes ARE visible.
Step 9. This unit is supplied with 4 dark brown wood plugs that you can put in the holes for the towel rod that you didn't use. On my unit, those plugs fell out every time I tried to put them in. I decided not to use them at all. If you have the same trouble, try using a little glue and I am sure they will stay in. Just remember if you do that, you might have a hard time getting them out, or you might damage the wood, if you later decide to put the towel rod in those holes.
Voila!! You are finished. I hope that helps the next person put this thing together a little easier than it was for me. I didn't realize about the different sizes of the cams until I had to take it apart to fix it. And good luck getting the wrong cams out of those holes after you put them in! It took a nail file, gravity, and a lot of frustration to get them out.
As everyone has already stated, make sure you get a small litter box. Check the dimensions of this unit and find one that fits. I had what I thought was a small litter box and it is too big. Silly me. Should have measured. I wish I had looked for one on Amazon to order at the same time so I wouldn't be sitting here with a lovely finished piece but no way to use it yet. Ah well, I can wait until tomorrow. The dimensions of the inside are 18 3/4" x 16 1/4".
Even though the thing was a little tricky to put together, I gave it 5 stars because it looks lovely. The opening to the unit is 7" x 8". Little kitties will fit in easily. I am not sure about the mega cats. (If you know what I mean.) If you have a super duper sized feline, I would suggest getting a cardboard box first and cut the opening that size and see if your kitty will fit.
Background - I have 9 cats at home. 2 of them are indoor-outdoor cats and the rest are indoor only cats. Even the ones that go outside like to do their 'business' inside my home. I have 5 litter boxes in different places (including two in the living room). The regular litter boxes work well but let's face it, they all look ugly. Even the prettiest litter box in Pet Smart looks like an eyesore. I was really embarrassed when I had visitors over. I want my home to neat, tidy and beautiful all the time and the regular litterboxes were not helping at all. I was longing for something that looked beautiful and easily accessible by my kitty babies. Amazon came to the rescue again. I came across this beautiful thing and did a trial by buying one. I loved it so much I ended up buying 3 of them.
Assembly - I wouldn't say assembly is a breeze. There is some amount of work involved. It is better to have a helping hand and the right tools.
Structure - The wood seems to be of decent quality and the whole structure seems to hold up well.It does not wobble at all.
Looks - This is what drew me to the product. The walnut color came very close to the other furniture in the living room. I positioned two of them in the living room. One on each side of the TV stand facing sideways (so the door is not visible to someone watching the TV). The finish is nice and smooth and blends so well with the living room furniture (which are in cherry/ mahagony color). It looks so classy. I even accented this with some contemporary vases and balls. OMG, it just looks fantastic. Summon the interior designer in you and use this as a piece of furniture and accent it. We also do a terrific job of keeping our home odor free by cleaning the litter box more than two times every day. We had a guest visiting our home 2 weeks back and she was curious to know where our cats did their 'business'. She knew we had a lot of cats and was looking for litter boxes in our living room. We then showed her this and all she said was 'wow'.
Tips - Like the inside with a thick towel that absorbs any pee (should your cat's pee spill outside the litterbox). Also, we place the deodorizer (the kind you stick to the wall) on the inside. It helps neutralize poop and pee odor. Also please buy the 'Iris Open Top Litter Box' (available on Amazon) with this. It is the only litter box that goes well with this.
I want to thank the person that came up with the idea and designed it. My only complaint is this comes in just one size. Wish this came in bigger sizes also to accommodate bigger litterboxes for larger cats. One of my babies is on the verge of being obese and he has a tough time using the smaller litter boxes. I set up a regular extra large litterbox (the regular one) for him upstairs.

Yo no lo tengo en un lugar muy visible, pero para quienes tengan poco espacio, quedaría perfecto en un baño o incluso en una habitación, sin verse feo y las visitas ni se imaginarán que es el "sanitario" del gato.
Totalmente recomendable, especialmente si lo encuentran publicado con un buen precio (yo pagué menos de $1100).
Joli meuble, spacieux, notice claire, montage rapide.
Possibilité de fixer le porte serviette à droite ou à gauche du meuble.
J'enlève une étoile car le bois est légèrement abîmé par endroit (éraflures).
