COSTWAYCat Tree, 157cm/178cm Multi-Level Cats Climbing Tower with Ladder/Massage Arch, Soft Perches, Condo and Scratch Posts, Indoor Kitten Activity Furniture Play House

A lot of cat towers on the market leave a lot to be desired in terms of longevity. I'm talking mostly about the towers that are cheap and covered in that nasty (usually grey, or cream) fabric that starts falling apart after your cats inevitably get their claws into it. For some reason, I've bought multiple of those towers before deciding to bite the bullet and spend a little more on something that isn't covered in that horrible fabric.Those towers are usually falling apart within a couple of months as my two cats rough and tumble about the place. This tower, despite being shaken around by them running up and down it, has remained sturdy and intact. The only fabric on this tower is the bedding, and that is removable and washable. I haven't had any issues with it coming loose or the velcro coming off completely, but if it does, that is a cheap replacement as you can get huge rolls of hook and loop take for cheap at various places. The sisal rope has also remained intact, when that starts wearing out I will most likely just replace it myself to save money instead of completely replacing the tower.This tower does not have any way to hook into a wall for support, but I've found the base is sturdy enough. It does wobble a little, but not to the point I think it would fall over. Mind you, I do have it nestled in a corner.I also have a portable air conditioner unit from Costway that is working just fine a year on, so no doubt this tower will last for some time longer. Spend a bit more and you'll have a tower that lasts you much longer than those gross, cheap fabric ones you see popping everywhere under a dozen different brand names. It's well worth it for your cat's happiness.

Overall great product with good build quality. I like the fact that it’s not some sort of cheap plywood or plastic but it’s engineered wood which meant to be used for a long lifetime. I also like that all pillars are covered with scratching material so you won’t waste any of the space for useless decoration.The assemble instructions are clear, it took me and hour and a half to build it on my own but I found it really easy.One thing I noted is it shakes a bit when the cats are on the two top platforms. They still get to the second top sometimes but I noticed that they never climb up to the top, probably they because don’t feel safe. I’ll probably do some extension so it can press to the ceiling, but if you don’t bother, then probably you should go with the shorter version of it.

Cat tower arrived today, it had was a quick next day delivery! It took an hour and half to build but I’m usually slow at building so I found it quick and easy to assemble. The cat tower is nice looking, strong and good quality, cats were in it straight away and we are happy with my purchase!

I put this together myself and found the instructions easy enough to follow. I did get a couple of bits the wrong way round at first but it was easy enough to correct them and work it out from there. Just be careful to make sure the holes perfectly line up and match the diagram locations 100% for the flat bits.It's sturdy and is a good size, but can be slid a short distance easily enough when needed. We have it in front of a window so the cat can watch the world go by on rainy days and she has enjoyed using it pretty much from day 1. She mostly just uses the middle bed bit but it's good to have the variety of platforms and different bits, and I'm just glad she does actually go on it, knowing what cats are like!I would recommend

The build quality seems pretty good so far (put this up just under a month ago). Fairly stable if you spend some time on it. Construction is easy with two people but maybe difficult with one. The issue other people had with the cushions not being secure was overcome by ordering extra sticky velcro to secure them. Smell wasn't a big issue but we washed the cushions before using them. Only real issue so far has been that the surfaces not covered with material are very slippery and our kitten has falled off several times (perhaps she's just young). Might need to modify it further with some other material ourselves.Also worth noting this tree is too big for a < 4 month kitten to jump on it unaided from the floor.

This is not the first cat tree I have purchased for my 2 lively rescue cats but it is the only one that worked for them! Fairly straightforward to assemble (it needs to be for me!) it was worth paying that little bit extra for- the quality is great, and the cats really enjoy it. I love the fact that each pillar is a scratching post made from robust material- unlike other tress that have limited scratching area and are covered with flimsy material. It is excellent!

Not all parts mares with a letter fair enough but then found holes not drilled all the way through so had to do it myself

We have 3 Maine Coons and 2 Norweigan Forrest cats who destroyed, and I mean completely wrecked, the previous cat tree.The previous tree had that strange material wrapped around every plank that cats shred up and we were experiencing a lot of dust bunnies which is why we decided for a more wooden and less fabric tree this time.Our dust and dust bunnies have significantly reduced! The cats are not walking around with fluff on them, they're claws are not stuck to the tree in panic any more and they are soooo happy with how clean this tree is. I have a few cats that don't particularly enjoy cushions and prefer sleeping on wooden floors so this is perfect! It can hold the Mainecoone weight of 8kg and fit its body comfortably. A clean cat tree also makes the house look nicer!Very happy so far, the brush at the bottom hasn't been used and half was flattened when it came, it's been sniffed but they can't fit through the loop and haven't brushed themselves on it. Might pull that up..Very happy cats!
