For the money this is ok. The post is rather unstable because it is connected in to places. The circular resting area is pretty small, a full grown cat probably wouldn't make any use of it. After a couple of months the post was so wobbly we took the center resting spot out and reduced it to a single post and the top perch only, its much more stable that way even if its a waste of half the tree. The cat house bottom gets plenty of use, is soft and is easy to vacuum out. I would find another option if you are looking for something to last a while.
