THIS thing is "the greatest."  I am more than pleased with it, because my CAT thinks it's the greatest!  It has helped to keep her from attacking furniture, and since she's a good-sized cat (10 lbs.) it is sturdy enough to stay upright when she "attacks."    I had returned one, earlier, to a local pet store after she kept knocking it over.   Another great point, the big label MADE IN THE USA!  Just my speed!
