Easy to assemble and feels like pretty good quality fabric compared to what is often used on cat trees like this. My climbing kitty loves the beds at the top and the extra dangles to play with. The only thing I realized after the fact that is odd, is the the rope on the pillars doesn’t extend to the top where cats tend to scratch the most. That’s not going to be great for the longevity of the piece. I may add rope to the top as the cats tear away at it.
