First, know that the box this item will arrive in is quite heavy. 50 pounds. Maybe 60 or 70. I'm not a goodJudge, but it's very heavy. It's stamped TEAM LIFT on the sides. If you live alone, you might want to be sure you have assistance to get it inside. (The assembled cat tree, since it's spread out and not compressed into a cube, isn't hard to move around, but the box is.)Assembly: Took me about an hour.

I made a few missteps along the way, but the design is very forgiving, so it was easy to back up and redo.The IRIS USA CL-205 Cat Tree is really magnificent. The cats were crawling on it before I was even halfway finished. It's really beautiful. Well made. And it's also now the biggest piece of furniture in our house. This baby is big. Seven or eight feet tall. And it branches out. Like a tree.The cats love it. We love it. You'll need to have a corner available for it. Or put it in the middle of your living room if you like. Watch your cats play, and hide, and nap, and plot against you.  Read Less
