Purchased this product so my 3 cats would not scratch up my new living room set.  After about a year of shopping around, I've found no one can beat this price.  Made my purchase a week after the arrival of my new furniture.  The cats love the scratching posts!  This product is awesome.  It is high quality and looks better than carpeted items that sell for much more.  Also, it was very simple & easy to put together.  I highly recommend this item.
