My cat absolutely loves this scratcher. This is my replacement purchase of this product, since like all scratchers it shredded apart (that’s kind of its purpose). It took a year for her to tear through it, which in my opinion is pretty good considering she uses us constantly. I like the base size, and she loves to play with her toys around and on it. I also love it because it’s compact without being too small for her to enjoy. Sturdy enough to never fall over and just the right height. The feather toys attached both times tore off within a day, but I usually just tie and reattach them or a put new feather string toy on. Problem solved. I like that you have the option to take off the attached toys as well. Overall great product for the price. Yes, it may shred and seem low quality to some but that’s it’s purpose and I feel for the price and the amount of time it takes to need replacing, it’s a great deal.

I have now bought this scratch pole for the 3rd time. Not because the quality is poor, but because my cat absolutely loves it! He doesn't like rope or other materials on other scratch poles. It holds up to my little guy's scratching and playing for about a year, before it really starts to fray badly. For the price, I have no problem with that! You can put it together in 2 minutes and it's ready to use.One note, it is on the small and light side. Might not be great for larger cats. My cat also prefers to have the pole laying diagonally/horizontallly, not vertically which I believe helps with it's sturdiness. I could see it tipping over if used by a stronger/older cat with it positioned traditionally.

I buy two of these a couple times a year my cats love them. I’d say they are well made, but maybe carpeting could be stronger? I’ve tried the more durable scratching posts but my cats won’t use them.

Both my cats love this but I’m standing it back up for them every 5 minutes. The base is not heavy enough for a cat to put their full weight into scratching without it toppling over & I don’t have large cats (9 & 12 pounds). If you can beef up the base this would be a perfect scratcher!

My six month old kitten loves it, and my two-year-old cat uses it to sharpen her claw. It’s very stable.

The only thing is the kittens tore the feathers off pretty easy.

i purchased two of these in hopes of keeping my two younger cats from scratching furniture up, I returned one for a refund in less than a month. I was disappointed with the construction, first it's top heavy and would not stay up unless I used furniture to hold the base down but then the top spinners wouldn't spin! Then the carpet material was the worst, I could tell it would start falling apart as soon as I opened it, but wanted to give it a try anyway. I've had it less than two months and the carpeting is fraying like crazy, I'm sure it will end up in the trash within another month. I will continue to look for something small that will last alot longer. My GoPetClub condo has held it's own since I got these two guys over 7 months ago. Again, just wanted something smaller to place in other areas of my apt.
