The concept is great, and I really like the colors. Quality of the wood is also very good. The cushion has a removable washable cover and the scratch pads are replaceable, which makes this very convenient. My main complaint was that the assembly of this unit was quite frustrating. The pieces don't fit snuggly together. You have to bend the frame and screw in tightly in order to get the top surface flat. Maybe we didn't assemble it right, but in that case I would argue the instructions are unclear. Also, there are 48 screws to screw in - a far cry for IKEA-level simplicity. Overall, I think this is a good buy, as long as you are aware the assembly may be a bit frustrating.
