Decent product, but only fair workmanship.

This product is a decent cat tree, but made with lower-quality materials than some of its more expensive rivals. The posts are wrapped in twine which provide for good scratching material. The two cylindrical parts are fairly small, so if your cat is more than a year or two old it might not be able to squeeze through the small openings. The platforms are covered in a thin, fairly cheap articificial "fleece" material that will wear out easily. On my purchase, the post that attaches the top platform to the main unit had a stripped out screw hole and I had to order a replacement part, and when it arrived it was the wrong one. I eventually went to my local hardware store and got a screw that fit the replacement part and made it work that way. All in all, this is a decent product but its only fair quality and workmanship is reflected in the cheap price. On the plus side, Overstock's customer service was excellent and they were very courteous, helpful, and prompt.
