Agree with other reviewers that the assembly instructions are poor. I had to redo several steps throughout the process, but did finally get it put together. Everything fit once I figured it out.
It did come sightly broken, one decorative slat on the front of the doors had fallen off, I'm just going to glue it back on.
It looks great, definitely more attractive than most cat towers. My cats use automatic feeders, but it was very easy to just leave off the food bowl and now that's an extra space.
If you have a bigger cat, I would not get this. Our little cat can use the whole thing, but our big (fat) cat had a lot of trouble oozing herself out of the tiny circular holes to get down from the top. In my case this is good, since the big cat tends to be a bully, so now little one has her own space that she can't get kicked out of :)
