My cats absolutely love this. I'll admit I was excited to get it and see how they would react. They were instantly attracted to it, trying to play on it while I assembled it. It's very easy to assemble and comes with the tools needed. The scratching posts appear to be durable. My cats are declawed so they don't do much damage to them. It is very tall. They love hiding in the 'houses' and perching up high on the towers. The price was very low compared to ones I saw at the store
