    Medicinal

    A familiar houseplant, the fleshy leaves of Aloe vera contain a clear gel that has been widely marketed in skin products for conditions where soothing and cooling actions are helpful, such as sunburn, superficial burns, haemorrhoids and other circumstances where the skin is angry and inflamed.

    Internal use of the gel has been considered to help those with digestive problems, particularly where there is thought to be related to inflammation or irritability of the lining of the bowel.

    Caution: Internal use of Aloe vera may interfere with some heart medications and steroids.

    Nice looking and lightweight
    I bought this to put in front of my basement doorway where I am missing a door. I don't like my cats in the basement and this works very well. However, because of the panels being up on 2 inch or so tiny stilts, my cats can still get through. So I have it upside down and will be putting gliders on the "bottom" of each panel. Note that it did come with gliders on the little stilts.

    Know what you're doing before you order
    Color: Grey
    There's a very high quality item easy to assemble last a long time it was pretty nice. For the first one. My roommate talked me into buying the second one and then he backed out of the deal he didn't have the money. So I returned it at the Amazon store and like a boomerang it came back. I end up having to buy it anyway you're still sitting in the box

    Must have for at home workers!
    I bought this divider because I work from home and wanted to have a professional and neutral background for video conferencing. There were other dividers that I contemplated purchasing because of the variety of colors but ultimately decided to go with this divider because of prime shipping. I noticed in the reviews of other dividers on Amazon a lot of people talked about cracks. I noticed a few cracks on mine but they are small and minimal in appearance so it does not bother me (see pictures). Overall, it came in great shape. I love the color of the divider. I was concerned it would come solid brown based on the pictures but it is more rustic, which I love. The dividers are tall and long so it covers a great amount of space. The hinges go either way which is also a plus. I will say it seems slightly unstable on carpet but it would only move if bumped into so that is not much of a concern. Most likely would be more sturdy on solid/ hardwood floors. Overall, I am super happy with my purchase. Definitely worth the price with fast 2 day prime shipping and no assembly needed.
