When I first received this cat tree,it looked great, and it was very easy to put together. My two 5 month old kittens looked like they were having a great time playing with it. Then, the very first night, one of the arms fell off! Another one fell off maybe a week later. Not very durable if you ask me, it couldn't support a 4 lb kitten. Now, the kittens have completely destroyed the carpeted post and aren't very interested in the scratching board. I wouldn't recommend buying this product.
