The product looked good when it arrived and I was thrilled that I didn't have to assemble it.  It's seems to be sturdy enough for my 12 lb cat.  After 2 weeks of use, however, it seems that it "sheds" everytime my cat scratches his paws on it and I'm finding that the padding on the seat (which my cat loves to sit on) has lost it's fullness and it seems that pretty soon my kitty will feel like he is sitting on wood.   I'm watching the bed closely---it may have to be returned.
