I am very pleased with how this tree came out. The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because the directions were not easy to follow and there was an issue with the slings. I ended up looking up a youtube assembly video for this product. THAT was very good, with step by step instructions. The 2 slings didn't have the proper length fitting. I ended up getting something from the hardware store because I was too impatient to contact the manufacturer and wait for a solution. I read another review about a new fitting that was made and I don't understand why the manufacturer doesn't include the correct pieces with the product.
