I am beyond pleased with this cat tree! My cats knew it was for them as soon as I opened the box and instantly started climbing all over it. It is completely sturdy and solid and I love that it is covered with high quality carpet. My cats even like the dangling string toy! I've noticed with other cat trees the string toys are either too stiff or just not exciting to them, but not with this one, they actually play with it. I'm so satisfied with my purchase and I know my kitties are too.
