At a glance: the 3 enclosed boxes, by their own spec fields

BIKOZI Enclosed Stainless Steel Litter Box, Small 17.3″L x 13.7″W x 14.9″H (details table); title/bullet give 17.5 x 13.5 x 14.7 — not confirmed which is correct 5.69 lb No capacity or cat weight range stated; described for kittens/small cats only
Marchul Enclosed Stainless Steel Litter Box Three conflicting figures given: 16.54×5.31×20.47 (details table), 20×16.2×15 (overview), 15.4×16.1×20.1 (bullet) — not resolved 8.05 lb (details table) vs. 3.65 kg / ~8.05 lb (overview) — roughly consistent “Fits 12-lb cats” claim not verified in research file

Quick answer. None of the litter boxes in our research files is described as furniture, cabinet-style or decor. The closest matches are enclosed boxes with lids or drawers, which hide the litter and waste. Cornell’s house-soiling guidance says most cats prefer uncovered boxes, because covers hold odors in. A hidden box can work, but it may not suit every cat. Check the current price on Amazon before you buy.

This post covers three enclosed boxes from the research file, with the sizes and cautions their listings state. It does not rank them, because the listings do not say how a cat will react to a covered box. It is a different question from our small-apartment box guide, which compares floor footprints.

What the research file contains

The research file for this topic has no listing that describes its box as furniture, a cabinet or a decor piece. The three enclosed boxes below are the closest matches in the file. Each comes from a listing captured on 2026-10-17, and each figure is as the seller states it. We did not measure any box.

Why a hidden box can cause trouble

Cornell’s house-soiling guidance says most cats prefer an uncovered box that lets odors escape and gives a 360-degree view of their surroundings. It also says that from the cat’s point of view, covers hold odors in, although people like covered boxes for odor and stray litter. A hidden box is therefore a trade-off between the owner’s view and the cat’s. The same guidance says to provide as many boxes as there are cats, plus one, so a hidden box does not reduce the number you need.

The three enclosed boxes

1. BIKOZI Enclosed Stainless Steel Litter Box, Small, Dual Entry

Specs (from the listing, checked 2026-10-17): the details table gives 17.3 inches long, 13.7 inches wide and 14.9 inches tall. The title and a bullet give 17.5 inches long, 13.5 inches wide and 14.7 inches tall, so the listing conflicts with itself. Weight is 5.69 pounds. The listing describes an enclosed housing with front and top entry, a removable stainless steel pull-out tray, and a size label of Small. Model FXMSP. The listing does not state a capacity, a cat weight range or the entry height.

Pros: the listing says the enclosed housing helps contain scattered litter; the pull-out drawer lets you clean without taking the enclosure apart; the set includes a double-layer mat. Cons: the two sets of dimensions differ by up to 0.2 inch; the listing describes it for kittens and small cats, not adult cats; the listing gives no cat count.

Best for: a kitten or small cat in a room where the box should stay out of sight. Skip if: you have larger adult cats, or you want an open box, which Cornell says most cats prefer.

2. Marchul Enclosed Stainless Steel Litter Box with Lid and Drawer

Specs (from the listing, checked 2026-10-17): three dimension statements conflict. The details table gives 16.54 x 5.31 x 20.47 inches. The overview gives 20 inches long, 16.2 inches wide and 15 inches tall. A bullet gives 38 cm high, 41 cm wide and 51 cm deep, and also states 15, 16.1 and 20.1 inches. Weight is 8.05 pounds in the details table; the overview gives 3.65 kg. The listing describes a fully enclosed box with a lid, a slide-out drawer and a single door for entry and exit, plus a dual-layer EVA litter mat. Model US2B065GY.

Pros: the listing says it is designed to hide waste and keep smells out of living rooms and bedrooms; the drawer lets you clean without disassembly. Cons: the dimensions conflict, so measure your space against the largest figure; at 8.05 pounds it is heavier than the BIKOZI at 5.69 pounds and the Bsemax at 3.5 pounds; the listing says it fits 12-pound cats, a claim our research file marks as not verified.

Best for: a home where the box has to stay out of sight, with a cat that accepts a covered box. Skip if: you need one exact size figure, or your cat avoids covered boxes.

3. Bsemax Stainless Steel Litter Box with Lid

Specs (from the listing, checked 2026-10-17): 17.4 inches long, 13.5 inches wide and 8.5 inches tall, with the details table and overview agreeing. Weight is 3.5 pounds. A bullet gives a capacity of 18 liters. Stainless steel, black, with a lid (model line: Stainless Steel Cat Litter Box with Lid). A bullet says it suits kittens, newborn cats and small pets. The listing does not state an interior size or an entry height.

Pros: the listing states a capacity of 18 liters, which the other two do not; a bullet says the lid overlaps the pan to keep urine inside (a listing claim); at 3.5 pounds it is the lightest of the three. Cons: the wording conflicts: the title says open top with low entry, while a bullet describes an enclosed high-wall housing; the listing gives no cat count; at 8.5 inches tall it is the shortest of the three.

Best for: a kitten or small cat, where a shorter box with a lid fits the room. Skip if: you need a box the listing clearly describes as enclosed, or you have adult cats.

How to choose a hidden box

Pick the box by the cat first, then by the room. Three checks help.

  • Cat acceptance. Cornell says most cats prefer uncovered boxes. If your cat already uses an open box, change to a hidden box slowly and watch whether the cat keeps using it.
  • Space. For example, a corner 18 inches wide has room for the Bsemax at 17.4 inches long and the BIKOZI at 17.3 inches long, per the details tables. The Marchul’s largest figure, 20.47 inches, would not fit an 18-inch corner.
  • Cleaning. The BIKOZI and Marchul listings describe pull-out trays or drawers. The Bsemax listing does not describe one. Weigh that against weight: the Marchul is 8.05 pounds.

Mistakes to avoid

  • Buying a hidden box for a cat that avoids covered boxes, since covers can hold odors in.
  • Treating the Marchul’s 12-pound-cat fit as verified. The listing states it as a bullet claim, and our research file marks it as not verified.
  • Trusting a single dimension. The BIKOZI and Marchul listings give conflicting dimensions, so measure your space and compare the stated figures.
  • Using one hidden box for several cats. Cornell says cats plus one. For example, three cats need four boxes, and a hidden box does not change that.

Who should skip this guide

Skip this guide if you have several adult cats, because the three boxes are small and the listings give no cat count. Also skip it if your cat stops using the box or changes its habits; ask your vet, because this guide does not give health advice.

If cleaning is your main reason for a hidden box, see our self-cleaning litter box guide. For vertical space elsewhere in the home, our cat tree guide for small apartments covers that.
