I dont usually write reviews, but I felt inclined to for anyone on the fence. Im normally a skeptic, but I read the glowing reviews for this cat tree and decided to go for it. At first my cat was a little standoffish, but after a week or so  some convincing with cat treats  a few feedings, its his new favorite spot. Its in our living room  every time were in here he can still be with us but now hes on the top bed instead of on the furniture. The quality is great, durable  stable. No rocking or moving. The top three beds are very soft. If youre on the fence, give it a shot!! As a side note, my cat is 5  this was first tree ever (I know)  he took to it (after a bit) like he had one his whole life.
