Tree is large (much larger than anticipated from the brand's living room imagery) with very full foliage (absolutely as full as the website images), astro turf base is quite unsightly for indoor use. Parts arrived dirty and had to be cleaned from saw dust before assembly. The tree is easy to assemble (simple instructions) & sturdy once all levels have been tightened (crucial step - keep spinning & spinning until tight, it will seem like it's not happening for ages!). Central metal base rod arrived bent but was able to force into shape to avoid the Leaning Tree of Feline. My cat likes playing with the leaves and relaxing on the lowest level but ultimately prefers sleeping on soft material, I will add a home-made cushion made to shape to the lowest level for this reason. Scratching pads on all levels have lifted/loosened after one-time-vigorous use by my cat. Overall pleased with purchase as it was bought on discount and was able to overlook the few issues.
