They were also extremely expensive. After extensive shopping on Amazon and other websites I settled on this tree, and I'm so glad I did. The price was probably half of what we were looking at in the pet store, looks much better, and it's large enough and strong enough to withstand our cats jumping on and off of it. I was concerned that it might be too large for our living room but it worked out perfectly. The cats are crazy about it. It might require some checking and tightening from time to time. Very highly recommended!For my two older cats, this was just right. It was easy to assemble, and it tucks up nicely to that window they want to reach without taking up too much space. The top perch, which is a bed, is quite small for a large cat. It is only 12 inches in diameter, and since it is not padded like their window perch in another room, the cats ignore it. I've ordered a round memory foam bar stool cover to line the bed, so that might attract some attention. Overall, I think it is a good deal, and it is getting lots of useAssembled the cat tree in about 1/2 Hr. Everything fit together well

. All parts were there. Lots of sisal posts for cats to wreak havoc on. Overall, I'm quite pleased with my purchase. My cats took to it right away and one of them is usually curled up in one of the perches. My minor criticism is that the carpeting is quite thin, although it looks good. The other is that the perches mounted on sisal posts are a little wobbly no matter how tight you install them. It may be due to the method by which they are attached internally to the tubes. I'm not too worried about it as the cats don't seem to mind. I'll address it with a more robust solution if the need arises. Still, a cat tree of this design would normally have cost at least 50% more at a pet store, so I'm happy with the purchase, and I recommend it.***Update*** I'm updating this review to give my solution to the slightly unstable sisal perch posts. Turn out the wobbling is caused by the plastic inserts that also contain the fastening nuts. The plastic is held in place by staples. I reinforced the plastic with some fine finishing nails and 3 screws. The post is now very stable and firm. Only took me a few minutes to solve this problem.
