Easy to assemble and very cute. My ceiling is too high but I was able to make it work. My cat likes it but preferred the box. With the box gone, he likes climbing on it once I was able to secure it. I tied it to the pipe so it won't fall over in the meantime, I plan on getting the proper measurements/dimension and cut PVC piping to fit it properly. It was only off by little bit (that is on me for not measuring) but I haven't found any other cat tree larger that will reach.  This is the perfect addition to any small apartment with normal ceilings. I live in a small studio apartment and it doesn't take up that much space. Good quality and great addition to any space.
