Great cat tree

I have been looking for the right cat tree for awhile and wasted lots of money on little ones that were useless. I decided to give this a try because it was on sale. And let me tell you I am so happy I did my cats love this so much. My Maine coon goes crazy on the top playing and it has handled it and not fallen over

Small improvements could be made, but good value

The unfortunate truth of cat trees is they're overpriced. This one isn't going to change your mind on that, but it is priced at market rate and for the cost, you do get a really, REALLY big cat tree. This thing is taller than my husband's 6-foot frame. I can't even reach the top perch without stretching really far.

Quality-wise, it's definitely the same cheap feeling cat posts that you see in physical stores, but the only way to get a good quality cat tree is to build it yourself or pay upwards of $400 dollars, so I'm not too put off by this. They could improve it by making the staples covered as I do worry about cats nails snagging on those, but so far I haven't had any problems. This would be a five-star item if they hid the staples correctly and lined the inside of the 'houses'. For the price, I'd expect that the inside of the houses would be lined, but you can clearly see the board inside. Would look much nicer lined with the same faux-fur and be comfier too.

One thing I really like about it, though, is the design. My cats absolutely love the top perch. I have two cats who struggle with weight issues and one skinny kitty and they all love this cat tree. Having the three perches means I've found them sleeping on each perch on more than one occasion. I managed to snap a pic when it was two, but always seem to be without my phone when it's three! Furthermore, because this is spread out and the design is intelligent, it's going to last longer than many of the smaller cat furniture I've owned. The ramps are also great for my kitty who has health problems as he doesn't have to jump as high when he's ill.

Two of my cats are particularly large (even by boy cat standards) and cannot fit entirely inside the higher of the two houses, but they can still fit, which to my mind is pretty impressive. The lower house can fit even the biggest cat without an issue, so it's perfect if you have larger cats. The design of the lower house, in particular, is super cute and they love to play with the mouse too!

The only thing I would caution is to make sure you have a CORNER room available for this. Without a corner to support it this tree would be a lot less sturdy. I thought I had plenty of room in my one available corner, but ended up having to rearrange a section of my living room, thanks to it being Air conditioner weather right now. So absolutely measure it if you're not 100 percent sure or feel like you have a limited space.

I'd definitely recommend this cat tree, especially if you can catch a sale. I feel it's going to last a good long while, but will update this review as time passes (usually 6 months to a year and I will update).
