The tree hall is exactly as pictured and pretty sturdy. I attached to the wall just to make it more secure.  Putting it together was a nightmare though.  Paid for the assembly thru wayfair and it took the guy 4 hours and he had to call for help bc literally needed two people to hold sections and put together.   Beware of this.  But otherwise exactly what I wanted so worth a little headache for the low price.
