My Tortie with an attitude hates most things (and people;) and she LOVES this. I didn't want a carpet covered tree and this was perfect. It did take her a day or two to decide it wasn't a long-legged intruder who should be immediately destroyed.

It looks amazing and she uses the scratchers. I reading other reviews before I purchased, some mentioned a "tipping" issue. She's a "big girl" and that hasn't been a problem at all. Yes, there is an off smell when it's brand new, but it goes away in short order. GREAT find.
