Stainless steel litter pans, anyone else have them?

I at least oncea year replace the plastic litter pans that I have used for years.
But cat urine & the dedicated digging that Shaw does means that eventually means break down of the plastic, weekly washes with Murphys Oil Soap helped, some.

I bought a stainless litter pan...Ptlom Cat Litter Box with High Sides Large Stainless Steel Cat Litter Pan 23.6" x 15.7" x 7.9"

So far so good. Washout time is mere minutes, no urine smell that I have noticed.

I’m a cat foster volunteer for our local program. I’ve found that after a while plastic boxes will hold their odor, no matter what cleaner you use. I use full size stainless steel steam table pans (Sam’s/Amazon) and I find they work very well. They are easy to clean and disinfect and hold no odor. The 6” high pan is great for adults who tend to fling their litter, and the shorter one is perfect for kittens to step into.
