I purchased this on sale for my sons cat. I had it delivered to my house and let my 2 year old tabby boy try it out. At 11 1/2 # he can lay on the top perch and reach under to bat at the ball. Loves the sisal. He gave it 5 stars!  I found it to meet my requirements. Stury, good sisal post, well made and nice beige color. I purchased another type from the pet store that i believe cost about the same and that one the sisal has come unwound. I believe this one will last and nice looking! I will buy another for my cat when they go on sale again!
