Looks very sharp, the grey color is lighter than it appears in picture, but actually like it even more.  My 7 and 11 year old put it together by themselves in about an hour without any help from me!  The carpet is very soft, probably won't hold up for too long if the cat scratches it too much, but we'll see.  Hoping the cat will focus on the actual scratch posts as they will hold up fine since it is more of a rope material there.  Very happy with purchase especially since we got it for half off, which was a big savings compared to getting one similar at the big box stores!

Pros: looks great, super soft material, easy assembly, several scratch posts
Cons: carpet more of a material than a carpet may not hold up if cat scratches it
