For heavy cats, no good.
Since there’s a hollow space in the base and the panel is only moderately supported, it bent right in the middle under our cats. One weighs 4 kg and the other 6 kg.
Might be fine for babies, but we definitely wouldn’t buy it again.

Breaks quickly
This scratching board looks good, and our cat took to it straight away. She uses it daily, scratches it, and also likes to lie on it. So far, so good.
Unfortunately, the quality leaves a lot to be desired. The rather thin "scratching insert" bends under pressure (the cat weighs 3.5 kg!) and, after just a few weeks, no longer sits firmly in the frame. If a claw gets caught while scratching, the insert quickly comes loose from the cardboard frame, gets lifted up, and shifts around. The insert cannot be replaced.

Great idea, but.....
When we received the box, I was really excited. Unfortunately, the excitement didn’t last long, as it broke quite quickly. My Maine Coon tomcat (7 months old) stood on it and wanted to play, and the box collapsed in the middle. In other words, it’s broken, and the cat was thrilled.

Breaks quickly
Visually appealing, even with the balls and holes. Unfortunately, it broke in the middle during the first week (cat weighs 4kg).

Broke immediately
My hen was really excited to sit on it, but it broke right in the middle. So much for the fun of playing.
She still lies on it, but that's about it. What a shame.

Great, but...
The two balls are fished out through the three 'large' openings at the top within seconds, shot across the room, and thus the box becomes uninteresting.

Overall great, BUT the cats can take the balls out.
Our cats are thrilled, but unfortunately, they very quickly managed to get both balls out, and since I have a large dog, I find it too dangerous as the ball could accidentally be swallowed. I had assumed that the balls couldn't be removed, or only if you took the lid off.

20 minutes of fun
After that, the balls were out. Unfortunately, the holes on the top are far too big. Now that my cat knows how it works, he quickly lost interest. Such a shame, I thought I could keep him entertained with it for a bit longer.

Had higher expectations
My two managed to get the ball out within 6 minutes and haven’t looked at the thing since.
The holes are probably far too big, and otherwise the cardboard is uninteresting – after all, you can’t sit inside it ;-)

Not durable!
Overall, a great scratching and play board, but unfortunately it bent in the middle after just two days. The scratching board can now only be used as a scratching board and no longer as a play board as well!

The item was broken in the middle.
This scratching furniture arrived here broken and was snapped in the middle. My kitties can't play with it. Overall, it's not very sturdy and is probably more suitable for very young cats.

What a shame!
Corrugated cardboard doesn’t last long, but the included plastic/metal balls last forever. Over time, this leads to accumulating non-degradable waste. Unfortunately, that’s all the manufacturer provides.
Such a shame, not for us anymore.

Very simple - doesn't hold up much!
The cardboard is very thin and lightweight; my cats quickly tore it apart. It falls apart much faster than sturdier scratching furniture. For the price, perhaps you can't expect much more.

ok but cat soon worked it out!
ok but limited use - maybe a week. then cat realised the drill and got the ball out very quickly. also would not use it as scratching pad! but nice enough

Too clever
My tomcat immediately got the ball out, and after that, it was completely ignored, not even used as a scratching board :(

Plate broke quickly
My two cats were absolutely thrilled with the toy. Anything made of corrugated cardboard is always a hit here. Unfortunately, it didn’t last a month, as the top panel broke through. Such a shame.
