I bought this for my husband and his comment was: "I'm sure the cats will love it". Well, I'm loving it to. Between that and the hammock there's always a place to snuggle with the cats. :-) Very easy to assemble, did it myself in maybe 1/2 hour. Make sure you tighten the seating properly. When doing that it's nice to be 2 people to get it even all around. I love it, especially for reading.Quality is excellent!
