Is this dry well sturdy enough to walk over

drainage

I am planning to install a dry well sold in HomeDepot in my backyard. I am wondering if this dry well would be sturdy enough to walk over. If anybody has installed this product, could you share the experience?

If installed per instructions (buried a minimum of 8") walking on it should be fine. There is also an illustration of adding a vertical pipe in the middle to increase loading (probably a good idea with many of the heavier riding mowers.)
