fun, but needs a bit of anchoring

ASSEMBLY: It was a piece of cake to assemble by myself (and I'm awful with assembly instructions).
STABILITY: I purchased this knowing it would need anchoring based on previous reviews.While I planned to get an L bracket to screw into the wall, I found a much easier solution--I rested the top perch on a shelf, and put a 15 pound weight on the bottom layer for extra precaution.
My rambunctious 10-pound kitty has thundered up the shelves with no problem.
FUN: My kitty was in a shelter for most of her development and wasn't confident in her jumping ability, but this has helped her get her "sea legs" and realize she was built to traverse vertical space! The top shelf is also very cushy, so she likes perching up there.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Very easy to put together, pretty sturdy and the flat areas big enough for a 10-15 lb cat.

My Kitten Loves it!

My kitten was playing with this cat tree while it was still in the box! I knew that was a good sign. She was jumping on it and playing as soon as I built it. It was easy to build! (I didn't even ask my husband to help haha). As long as you keep it up against a wall it is pretty sturdy. My 10 yr old cat has no interest in this cat tree. Maybe because the platforms are smaller and the perfect size for a kitten. The height is perfect. Sits right below the window. It's really cute too. Now that I bought a bigger and taller cat tree for another room the kitten doesn't go on this one as much.

Received my cat tree today. Had it put together in under 15 minutes. I admit the directions aren't the most well written, but c'mon, it's not rocket science!
Placed cat tree on built-in bench in my daughter's window seat (new kitty's room). I placed the kitten on the cat tree and just kept an eye on her, how she got around and how much the cat tree moved around. After repositioning the movable shelf, I found the perfect placement on the bench that was also stable enough for a busy kitten.
This is a good quality product that is easy to assemble and serves its purpose well for any active feline.
I would recommend it to a friend for sure!

At first I was surprised by how small the box was. It was very easy to be put together and the cats started checking it out immediately. The ball is a tempting toy and they simply love to stretch up and scratch on the long posts. Excellent addition to our home! Would definitely recommend it to anyone who's looking for something without a cave. Great buy any time!!!

Cute Cat Tree. Needs instruction in English for the common person, with common sense you can do it, if you watch the picture. We did it in 20min but the normal person would do it 3hrs, we built things where we did it on logic because the instructions were horrible. The Cat tree is worth buying when compared to other products. (But, being made in China what do you expect). You need patience, watch the picture for comparison to guide you. It great for cats less than 15LBS, otherwise balance it against a wall or put a weight on it then its excellent for larger cats. I bougt it for my 4 cats that range from 27LBS to 18LBS. Its cute, functional and for my little monsters who love to be by the windows watching and hopping up and down.

The item is very stylish - but it is a bit unstable. My cat is about 13 lbs and is very afraid to even get on it as it wiggles back and forth at the slightest touch :( The higher the platform, the more shaky! May work if your cat is under 5 lbs........

I bought this tree to replace one of the "carpet" trees, because my cat does not seem to like scratching on anything other than sisal (and my furniture.) It was easy to put together, but make no mistake, it is cheap. My cat is probably 1/3 smaller than the cat in the picture, and I can't imagine a bigger cat jumping around on this thing. The biggest problem is instability. The base is not heavy enough, and if I had not basically wedged this in a corner and strategically placed the first tier, the tree would topple every time my cat jumped on it. The ledges are made from some kind of lightweight wood/paper mixture, and I would be shocked if they did not start to warp in a couple months. Also, the hanging ball came off within 10 minutes of my cat playing with it (and not very vigorously, I might add.) I will say the size is unobtrusive, which works in my condo, and the design is a pleasant change from most of what I've seen, but I'm sure I will be in the market, again, come 6 months from now.

need more base weight for most cats; I believe

I received this item quickly, my cat would have tipped it over, she weighs between 8-9 pounds, I had to add weight to the bottom for stability! I played with cat to get her to use it at first, a picture showed assembly, even though the parts didn't match the numbers it was easy to assemble, but the bottom should be weighted more for any cat, she loves to climb and scratch the posts, so if weight is added to base this would be wonderful! I had one tip over on her and she would no longer use it, please weight the bottom or enlarge it!!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I was pretty pleased with this cat tree, it looks nice and was relatively easy to put together. The instructions for assembly were a little confusing at first but all told it probably only took me about 15 min. My only complaint is that I wish it was a tad bit more sturdy. My 19 lb boy cat was kinda wobbly on it so I put it in a corner and placed a padded footstool next to it and now it's fine. My 9 lb girl cat loves it she started laying on the platforms before I even put it together. The multiple scratching posts are great. All in all pretty sweet for how much it cost.

I have three cats who average 14lbs each. This cat tree is too unbalanced for them. They have difficulty maneuvering from one platform to the next. Two poles on opposite corners does not offer enough stability, even with a huge rock in the middle! I am putting this tree out for donation and spending even more money for a taller and more stable one. This, perhaps, would be better for kittens or smaller cats.
