My cat loves this tree! He's a large Bengal that loves to climb, and this tree is his favorite spot in the house. I read several of the reviews before purchasing, and they were all so true. The assembly was practically thoughtless, and my cat was trying to climb on it before I was finished putting it together. 

A tree this size would cost about 4x as much from your local pet store. The only downfall is that the perches tend to wobble, even with all of the cams secured. That was easily fixed with some tie straps.
