Review on 🐱 Optimized Amazon Basics Cat Tree with Cave and Scratching Posts by Katie Lee

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Too flimsy for a third row but good quality

The basic cat tree arrived today and I assembled it straight away. My cat accepted it immediately. It fitted easily despite the instructions requiring a magnifying glass to read. These are simple instructions, difficult to read. All parts are clearly and carefully marked, including screws and fasteners, making the instructions easy to follow. The "ladder" is used as a fourth leg on the bottom. I would have preferred the fourth leg because when the second step is attached the unit tips over a bit. The round cat house is a good size but the bottom tier only has one screw attached and it is loose. I'll probably screw in some small holes and add some extra fasteners. The supplied screw also ended up in the carpet inside the house. The screw is dull so I put a blanket in to cover it. The third stage could not be attached because of a small poisoning. The materials come with a strap and screw to attach the device to the wall, but it takes more than a strap to attach it accidentally, pulling it away from the wall and leaving a few craters. The corner is ok. I only have one cat but I would be careful if there is more than one cat and they play hard. My cat already had steps to get to her favorite window. Now he uses them to climb the tower. The parts are well made and covered with a soft carpet that is easy to clean. Unlike other devices I've built, they didn't have any staples or rough surfaces. It doesn't include toys with ropes, but I can add them once I figure out how it'll stand in the corner. In general it is of good quality. If any design flaws were corrected I would rate it as excellent.

Pros
  • Great fit for me
Cons
  • A little wrinkled
