I was pleasantly surprised with the size of the cat tree! It was exactly what I wanted in terms of height and how it would work with my two cats. I will say that the carpet seems fairly cheap (not thick whatsoever) and there are strings hanging off the cat tree in several places, hence my four star review since it was like that when I opened the box (I have cut most of them off). The box also had some damage from shipping, but there weren’t any pieces missing or damaged. Otherwise, I really like it and so do my cats! It’s perfect for my cabin and let’s my kitties look out the window all day long.
