The cats just love this! I couldn't get it put together fast enough for them( even though it only took me 5 min to assemble) they were climing and scratching, this is a great purchase. I ordered the brown such is more of a beige , I like the color,  as you may or may not be able to tell, I have 3 good wise cats, one being main coin/ Norwegian forest mix, who's 25 pounds, and 8 yrs old, then I have a 15 pound ginger tabby, he's a senior, and not gone past first platform, then I have a Bengal mix shoes 8 mths, and all over the tree.  Very sturdy, and well made, I highly recommend,  I'm a bit sad that its on sale again for less than I paid, so grab one now!
