The plastic trash can base and cover fit nicely against the litter box and look great. Also seems larger than the cardboard box.
The cardboard is fine really, but the plastic trash can has had no issues saying it's full when it's not. It closes properly every time. Mandatory for the robot in the garage. The humidity killed the cardboard. Wish it was just a little bit cheaper.
Definitely better than cardboard.
Before I switched to the plastic trash can base, I always smelled a strange smell in the home. As soon as I switched, it disappeared. The cardboard dispenser works well but after a while, (8 months in my case) it’s time to switch. The odor escapes through the cardboard after a while. Happy with the switch
The plastic base holds a lot and it is a great addition.
