PawHut 5-Tier Grey Sisal Multi-Level Cat Tree Tower with Scratching Posts

Pros:Cats like it, at least lower partsWell made, goes together and stays together without problemsReasonably stable so farDecent English instructions and numbered partsFits for low ceilingsLooks smartSurfaces all coveredReasonably easy to keep cleanHelps cats get on with each other and lowers anxiety as they prefer lots of raised sleeping optionsCan provide exercise and lets cats climb and scratch safelyExcellent value for moneyCons:Hammock is small, 32 cm diameter - not suitable for larger catsClosed bed needs a cushionWing nuts for top part might have been missing or design was changed without updating instructionsBase is quite large, compared to overall size, so takes up floor space, but maybe necessary for stabilityMy ceilings are only 225 cm, so was pleased to find a cat tree. Most would need adapting.. but this one fits out of the box. It is not terribly stable at the moment, but then no surfaces in my flat seem to be level or straight and it's not too bad. Also, have not yet used the strap to fasten it to wall, and top screw-in part might need adjusting. Dropped one star from "sturdiness" rating due to it not being fully stable, but might well change that later.I bought this ages ago, so was just pleased to finally get it up. Excuse the state of my walls in photos, btw, were behind something for years.Instructions for assembly were fine, parts all marked and instructions step by step. It is quite a long process to assemble all the parts, but mostly, it was clear. Was not clear which pieces go where on the base, but soon became apparent. Only other issue was that top part, that screws in and provides adjustment for ceiling height, was shown as needing 2 wing nuts, which were not included. It works without, but wing nuts could help with stability and ensure the top part cannot loosen. Plan to try and add some.Will try and add a photo of instructions later, if I can find them.I added a chair cushion inside the closed bed and replaced the hammock with a larger 40 cm one, as my cats all weigh at least 5 kg. All surfaces are covered in fluffy fabric, but no cushioning, so for sleeping, too hard without a cushion.I put cat nip spray on to get cats interested, as mine are all elderly and set in their ways. Now, 2 of 3 use the closed bed and hammock regularly, but none use the scratching posts or upper platforms yet. I plan to add some climbing boards with scratch surfaces to closest wall and create an up and down route to their feeding table, to provide them with incentive to climb.Multi cat households especially benefit from multiple options for everything: beds, toys, food bowls, water, toilets etc. Have noticed mine get along better when they have more than one sleeping option each. Trouble is, they sometimes abandon a bed for no apparent reason and never go back to it, so have thrown out a lot of cat beds over the years. Even washing or moving them did not help.. am hoping same does not happen with this!Overall, for the price, this is excellent and you'd think it cost a lot more than it did.

Great cat tree. Stable, easy to assemble and redo.

Good value for money and you get what you pay for. If you want supreme sturdiness then pay well over £150 on other products. Stability can be sorted by using screws to attach to ceiling just for that added stability.

Pleased with this tree. Much larger than expected which is a good thing as I wasn’t expecting it to be as big for the money. It’s very sturdy and my cat already likes it. I have seen these in the shops and online for loads more money that are not as good as this one. Impressed.

The idea of a very tall tower for cats to climb up is a good one. This should have been a nice sturdy tower but the one I received at least, would not fit together properly and thus very unstable. I'd asked to return the tower, but the seller initially refused as I did not take photographs and there was no way I was putting it back together just to take pictures. Seller then said it would be a 15% refund only. This is actually illegal as far as I'm aware. The tower I received was not suitable for purpose. I also ended up having to pay over £10 to get it couriered back to the seller. I had to get in touch with Amazon to arrange postage refund and refund on tower.

They love this and it wasn't the most expensive.Not terrible to put together, just don't put the cat cave on uspide down, lol, or you have to take it all apart again.More of the pole sections could be scratchers, some have just fur fabric on them.That said it is the first place the kitten goes in a morning, right to the top, and my princess has the cat cave

My 3 cats totally love this

15 year old assembled this by himself with no problems. It was very well priced in comparison with others. The cat loves it. It’s such a great hangout area for the cat.
