"My cats love it, even the one who didn't use the old cat tree. I reconfigured the layout to fit the space I had and it works great. It is a little top heavy but so far no problems with it tipping. I may add a block or something heavy to the bottom to help hold it down."

"I TOOK ALL THE PIECES OUT WITH THE VERY DEFICIENT INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO ASSEMBLE & THOUGHT, NOWAY! I NEED TO RETURN IT, FORTUNATELY I KEPT THE BOX. I DID NOTE THAT THE CARPETING WAS VERY, VERY THIN."

Bottom Line

This durable cat tree provides delightful climbing areas that felines appear to cherish. However, careful planning, preventive measures are necessary due to stability issues.
