We've had the scratching post on our covered balcony for 4 years now, and in over 30 years of owning cats, we've never had such a poor-quality tree. It stays dry and is "only" exposed to the sun, but now the plastic on the baskets is practically breaking just from looking at it, and everywhere it's wrapped, it's falling apart. We've now bought different baskets since the columns and the base plate are still fine. Far too expensive for the durability—never again!

I've been using this scratching post repeatedly for years because I need one for the terrace as well. The caves are fine, but the base plate is made of plywood and completely rots through. For the price, you'd expect them to come up with a better solution.

Far too heavy, primitive assembly, screws strip, overall too expensive and an imposition. Only plastic – no cat will sit on this synthetic material. Far too expensive for something made in Asia. NOT RECOMMENDED.

This tree is beautifully made but totally spoilt by the instructions and looks like the wrong screws, we can't put it together been on all day.

The scratching post is sturdy, but after a few years, the fabric has faded and split in several places. As a result, rainwater has seeped in. The plastic rattan has become completely brittle from the sun and is crumbling. It’s no longer safe as the weave can no longer support the pressure of the cats' paws. Additionally, rainwater always collected in the hollow of the cushion, but I managed to fix this by inserting a larger eyelet at the lowest point.

The outdoor cat tree arrived afternoon - I have never seen such utterly ridiculous instructions to fit simething together, they do not make sense, and it is actually virtually impossible to do!! We nearly sent it back, hopefully it will stay fixed the way we did it.

It arrived in a very tatty box, at frist I wondered if it was second hand. The instructions are a joke, very little help, the pictures on user reviews helped more as we worked it out. (Easy once you work it out) Day two and neather of my cats have ventured in or on it but I hope it will grow on them. The box is a big hit with Frank, a small silver lining!
