My cat 100% approves of this cat tree and has provided me with several hours of entertainment in just the first couple of days of having it. The color is darker than the picture (more of a beige color) but it looks nice and it was easy to screw the pieces together. It is a bit awkward for my cat to get down from the tube part as it hangs over the next level down quite a bit so I've had to put my old, smaller cat tree nearby to give him something to jump onto but I'm sure he'll figure it out over time as he gets used to it. Seems like great quality and it's pretty solid - handles him jumping from another tree to the top level of this one just fine.
