The cat tree is easy to assemble and our 2 kittens took right to it and love it.The upper platforms are small and while my cats try to lay on them they really aren't big enough to sleep on. I took the ball holder thing off because, while it may never happen, we were worried a cat would get a paw stuck in one of the holes as they jumped off. This is probably more of a concern for a kitten than a full grown cat but nonetheless...It is sturdy and has held up well with two growing cats jumping and running up it constantly. It was a good price for what you get.If you want bigger platforms/etc you will pay for that but this did the trick for the cats to be able to climb and play.

No issues so far I’ve had this for about a month or two and it’s still in great shape. The cats love it and it’s held up surprisingly well for the price. It is a bit wobbly so we found its best to place it in a corner where it’s up against two walls or secure it to one wall using cheap L brackets from the hardware store. Not a dealbreaker for the price.

She loves being up high, so with this cat tree being about 70inches tall is perfect. She couldn't wait until it was fully assembled to start playing with it! She loves the hanging toys and the balls with the bells in them within the box at the top. She manages to get the balls out so we have to keep putting them back in. Probably my only issue with it. Good quality, easy to put together, one happy cat!

It’s a really good product, for sure it’s value for money. My cat loves it, sleeps on the top every day. She also loves the scratch posts and jumps up and down all the time. Not that hard to assemble either.

It shipped/arrived way sooner than estimated, when I purchased it said 1 month until delivery, nope it was 1 week tops! The box was undamaged, everything was secure, & labeled, it also came with the 2 different sized Allen wrenches needed to assemble. Assembly took me & my 10yr old daughter maybe 30mins tops! I actually bought a 2nd 1 as a gift & they loved it as well. This is over 6ft tall! It has really big platforms so my cats can actually play & roll around without falling! They love the ball toys it comes with! I mean I could go on about how much all 3 love it! This is so safe, & sturdy! It has a HUGE BASE SO IT'S STURDY! It's not wiggly at the top as most of the Cat Condos get, I'm actually looking at getting a 2nd 1 for my kitchen just different design & can't wait for it to get here & review it as well! I can not speak to all of their Cat Condos but, this 1 is perfect, safe, looks good, easy to assemble, cats love it, it's easy to clean, very nice & not tacky, it matches everything! Oh & has 4 really good scratching posts! It literally is a steal & a great deal & it meets the different wants/needs of each cat!

Mi gata aunque no es muy pesada, es muy larga, los postes para rasguñar le quedan chicos, y este la tiene loca.El material es bueno, aunque las tablas y cajas son de aglomerado, los postes son de plástico, por lo que son resistentes; el armado fue sumamente fácil, me tomo como 40 minutos armarla y de verdad que fue muy simple, las piezas vienen marcadas y aunque pareciera difícil al principio porque solo es una imagen, cuenta con un vídeo en la página que hace que el armado sea sumamente sencillo, se siente resistente, no se tambalea, y esta de buena altura.Creo que la mayor duda de todos siempre es si le gustara al gato, pues a la mía le encantó, me temía que le gustara mas la caja que el contenido pero no fue así esta sumamente contenta. E un producto altamente recomendable, además, me llego una semana antes! y eso que viene de USA.

Pros:- Big cat tree, a lot of verticality- Plenty of scratching posts- Easy to climb due to the multiple levels/floors- Plentiful of toys (mouse, rope, spring-attached ball, string-attached ball and a puzzle with two balls with bells in it)Cons:- May not be suitable for Maine Coons, or larger cats, the surfaces are very small (my cat is a very small shorthair american domestic cat, so he fits very well)- Wobbly base for larger cats as it does not have a pole to attach it to the roof- All the materials have a plastic base, so do not over-screw your pieces as the plastic can collapse and breakOther:- Bang for your buck, you get what you paid for and more, you can't beat this price- Came in with clear instructions, good guide/manual- Easy to disassemble if you

I purchased this FurHaven"Double Decker Playground" model cat tower for our four cats. It was to replace a slightly larger cat tower that had become decrepit because it was loved so much and used daily. We paid about $100 for the old one, so I believe the FurHaven is competitively priced. It comes in a marked box, so everyone will know what you are receiving. The instructions are easy to understand, step by step, with clearly marked parts. It was easy to put together and took me about 35 minutes unboxing to done. The only problem I had during installation was the last step where you have to attach the diagonal step by screwing in a bolt at the bottom directly below the diagonal piece where there is very little room to maneuver. It took a few minutes of fumbling to get the bolt in the hole at the proper angle and get it screwed in. This is just an example of the most difficult obstacle in assembly, and it wasn't a big deal, so I don't think you will have any trouble assembling it with one or two people (I assembled it solo.)Once put together, it was immediately attractive to my cats. They love the scratching posts, which I love that the sisal wrap goes all the way from the top to the bottom of the posts, instead of being only partially wrapped like they are in cheaper towers. There are multiple boxes to sleep in and toys to play with. Note that the one hanging ball in the middle has a metal bell in it. I've included some pictures of my cat enjoying the boxes. She's a normal-sized adult cat and she's pretty snug, but they like enclosed spaces so it works well for them. What doesn't work well for me, and the reason I deducted one star from my review, is the ball box at the top. The tower comes with some plastic balls that go into the cardboard box at the top via the holes all over. My cats were very interested in playing with the balls I put in the box but within the span of literally 10 seconds they had thrown the balls out of the tower and onto the hard floor which caused the balls to shatter. The holes in the box are larger than the balls, so they're easy to knock out. The hole at the top should be large enough to put the balls in, and the holes around the sides should be big enough for paws to go in but not get the balls out. Also, two of the balls I put in were so fragile that they broke upon hitting the floor the first few times.Overall, I and my cats are very pleased with the purchase of this FurHaven Double Decker Playground and although it isn't perfect, I would highly recommend it for anyone with a cat and space for it. 4/5 stars.If you found this review helpful, please show some love by clicking the "Yes" button below.

I am happy with the quality of Platform House Cat Tree House. Although it wiggles a little when pushed, I think that it is sturdy and do not worry about it falling over. My cat has used it everyday, although so far she only goes on the top 2 levels if I put her on them. She weighs about 15 pounds and fits in the kitty cave and hangs over the edges of the 2 top levels if laying down (she doesn't seem to mind). My cat uses the scratching posts but does not play with the toy. I put it together fairly easily and ended up with an extra dowel screw instead of the regular screw I needed, so I emailed customer service at service@furhaven.com and they sent me the correct part quickly. The platforms are placed at odd angles to make it easier for cats to jump from one to the other. Another commenter mentions that this causes the tree to take up more space because it can't be flush to a wall because the platforms have corners jutting out on different sides - this is not an issue for me, but I can see how it might be for some. I have not tried it a corner. The tree is a soft gray fabric and has that new fabric smell at first. I wish it came with more of the sisal scratching posts, rather than the fabric covered ones. If my cat does not start using the sisal post near the cave, I may move it to the bottom, so there are 2 scratching posts on the bottom level.

Me pareció excelente producto, de buena calidad y de buen tamaño para mis dos gatos... únicamente la entrega fue un caos, porque no te lo envían a ti por medio de paquetería más segura, sino que utilizan un servicio muy extraño que odié. Primero, el repartidor me regañó por no estar en mi casa y a fuerza lo quería dejar con un vecino y que si no aceptaba, lo iban a regresar a la CDMX... después de que me hizo enojar, le colgué y me llamó otro. Acordamos la entrega para unas horas más tarde y llegó el primero con quien había hablado, y todavía queriéndome dar una cátedra sobre responsabilidad para estar en casa y que me entregaran mis paquetes. No sé por qué no usan DHL, ESTAFETA, UPS. Y si van a seguir usando ese, de preferencia que cambien su comportamiento ante el cliente.Por lo demás es un producto excelente y la entrega fue en buen tiempo, aproximadamente dos semanas.
