I ordered this cat tree at a great sale price, and I could not be more pleased. The frisky cat was interested in it from the time the box came in the door, and she played with the toy accessories as we were assembling the tree. It was easy to assemble. It is reasonably sturdy for average-sized cats, and it provides a lot of shelf options for its modest footprint (good for apartment living). Both cats immediately jumped on the shelves to look out the window. The frisky cat who needs entertainment has found some!
