This cat lounge is better than I had hoped.  It is extremely sturdy, which was imperative since one of my cats is over 20 lbs.  When buying, I was a little confused about the color, not knowing exactly which brown the manufacturer was using, since their other furniture included as well a very dark brown, which I didn't want.  The pictured color, and the one I bought, is a very nice lighter brown one would almost call sand, which was perfect for the room. So far, one cat is using the top platform, and the other continues to steal the dog's bed - must get some catnip to coax her to use it.
