I have step stools all over my house for Estee to get up onto the couch and the bed, but we got a new bed that is taller and I got sick of hearing her dig her claws into my sheets to haul herself up from the too short step stool. This set of stairs is perfect. It's tall enough to reach the bed, but only an inch wider than the plastic step stool was. Now she's silent in the middle of the night. The faux fleece fabric won't stand up long if your cat is an aggressive scratcher, but Estee doesn't do that so I'm not worried she'll shred it. I like the light color and it was easy to put together. Thanks Wayfair for the super fast shipping.
