It's a gorgeous cat tree, and it was easy to assemble (for the most part). However, I was disappointed to find that there were no holes drilled for the supports for the second shelf. It's really heavy and large, so I didn't feel like it would be super feasible to return it. Fortunately, my dad is pretty good with this stuff, so he drilled holes, but the wood did flake a bit on the back where the drill bit went through, so it's not super pretty. It's a nice cat tree, but I was pretty disappointed that it came with a flaw like that for the price.

Otherwise, it's beautiful and the wood seems pretty solid. My cat hasn't climbed it much yet, but I think she's still figuring it out. She does love the cubby hole, though.
