The color is beautiful and the larger than normal platforms are great for my cats to lay on. However, the taller side with only one support column running up is rather unstable and makes me worry it will fall or break in pieces. Also, the screws that hold the bottom column pieces protrude out of the base a bit too far when screwed in all the way so the cat tree is wobbly on hardwood floor. Unsure of how it would sit on carpet. I've ordered better cat tress on here, unfortunate this one is not very good.
