I love the look of this as it goes with our floors really well. However it is more pleasing to the eye than is practical.  If you have a large breed cat or kitten,  they will grow out of this within a month of having it. My mainecoon kitten just 4 months old has nearly fallen off the top a few times. Its a shame you cant buy additional sides for the top platform, so she is more enclosed and doesnt loose her balance when sleeping. I also had to add extra stuffing to the really thin cushions and  replaced the top two  cushions with pieces of excess plush carpet as she finds that more comfortable to lie on. I am going to need to affix it to the wall now, as she is going to be too heavy (3kg) soon and will pull it down when climbing the post. Otherwise a sturdy and great product for smaller cats. I am just sad I wont get as much use of it as I thought I would!
