Modern Tall Cat Tree Tower with Scratch Posts and Washable Mats

In the search for a new cat tree, I wanted to find one that was well made, did not have attached carpet since it cannot be removed for cleaning, was sturdy, and would provide several cozy places for the cats. This one fit the bill quite well, especially as the cushions can be removed and washed. The wooden components are really nice and heavy. The assembly hardware is also heavy duty and I have no issues with the quality of those components. Assembly is pretty straightforward, with two confusing moments. Platform C has three holes in it but only two are used and it took a little extra time to make sure that it was being installed in the correct orientation. Velcro strips are used to attach some of the cushions to platforms. The round cushions need to be inverted to be in the correct orientation for the velcro to stick to them. The way that they arrived, with the side that does not stick to the velcro on what appears to be the bottom, is inverted. The one thing that I feel really needs to be improved is the round hammock. It sits in a hole supposed by metal rings that are wider than the hole. However, the material is slippery on the wood and it is easy for a cat to make the hammock slip to the side. There should be a way to affix this hammock better, without having to put a hole in the material (if a DIY attempt) as that would speed up the rate of the material wearing out. The cushions don\'t seem like they are made all that well, so I don\'t really expect them to last a long time. This is a bit disappointing. Hopefully the company that makes this cat tree will sell replacement cushions (higher quality) when the time comes for these to be replaced. That said, I LOVE the fact that they can be washed. One of my cats could not even wait for this tree to be assembled before getting onto it. He because master of the new tree right away, so that bodes well for its initial popularity. I am quite sure that the others will love it too once they see it.

My cats absolutely love it. The tuxedo was ecstatic and was playing with it the whole time I put it together. Assembly is straightforward, but it will require some strength to fully tighten the posts since they are just spun by hand.

My cat absolutely loves it! His favorite is the little hole in the cylinder. He finally went up to the top yesterday and laid down. It does wabble a bit but it’s so heavy and sturdy you don’t have to worry about it

Very impressed with the parts overall however the upper tiers tend to wobble a bit. I don't think it will tip over but definitely a slight cause of concern so I will be keeping an eye on it. And the 4th tier is just a hazard... the metal frame for the pouch is very strong but it tends to half way slip through the hole causing my cat to almost fall through. Not really sure why it's designed this way. Really upsetting as it is then a risky level to get to the top and final 5th tier. Overall pretty solid but the gripes above are the reasoning for 3 star.

I love love love this cat tree. It was super easy to assemble alone, I got it built in less than 20 minutes. This cat tree is a beautiful light color and built super sturdy. A beautiful addition to my home, and my cats love it. Every level gets utilized!
