It took a few days for her to get used to it and explore each area, but now loved by the cat. Definitely a good buy. Not much scratching being done but a lot of climbing, sitting and sleeping. Doesn't use her cave much ( which is why we bought this one) but the pouch (which we thought she would ignore)  is a firm favourite. Easy to assemble and sturdy, though we have put a couple of weights on the base but that's possibly being cautious.
