This cat tree is very well built and good looking. It is a little smaller in person than it looks in the photo. I would say the cat in the photo must be a kitten or a pretty small cat. My cat is about 11 pounds though, and this tree is a great size for him. But of course, since I bought it FOR him and spent money on it he wants nothing to do with it. He would rather lay on a pizza box or my flip flops. His dislike of the product is no reflection on its quality. I really like it, and I like the fact that I could paint it to go with my house decor if I wanted to. 

Pros: Easy assembly, well built, good looking
Cons: smaller than imagined
