My cats have really enjoyed this cat tree--all four of them. The number of scratching  posts  played an integral part in satisfying their scratching needs and diverting their scratching activity from my woodwork to the posts. The tree could use a little better development in its post-to-frame connection: the bolts did wear out in one area and we had to supplement with another way to stabilize the post to the frame. Otherwise, it has been a great tree.
