fixings need some thought
We purchased 3 of these for our boys. We have fixed them around the corner edge of a wall and put all 3 going up the wall from to to bottom, this makes 1 huge wall mounted cat scratcher. Our boys love it and scale it from top to bottom numerous times a day. The down side is the fabric fixings.... they came apart after just one day of our boys scaling the scratcher. I dismounted the scratcher from the wall, removed the fabric fixings, drilled new holes and refitted it to the wall with screws.

Serve their purpose
We ordered these scratch boards because our cat scratched up all the corners in our old flat. In the new flat, we’ve now got one of these scratch boards on every corner. They’re used every day, and our cat, who weighs 6.2 kilos, hangs onto them completely, which they handle with ease. I should mention, though, that we screwed the boards directly into the wall, as the provided brackets are absolute rubbish and tear off.

2 weeks and then broken
The fastening was completely unnecessary, and after 2 weeks the edging came loose.

Mounting unnecessary
The mounting could have been skipped altogether. I immediately attached the panels to a board. The boards might be suitable for small or normally sized cats. My cat, weighing 4.3 kg, doesn’t climb on it at all, but the tomcat, a Norwegian Forest Cat, races up it all the way to the door frame. At 7 kg and with endless energy, it lasted two months before the plush edge was frayed. That’s it. The boards have already been replaced.

Attachment poor
As has often been mentioned, the mounting is really poor. After the first attempt to attach the board, the eyelets broke immediately, just as they did for many others. Due to the type of mounting and the quality of the straps and eyelets, it’s simply not possible to securely fix the board to the wall. I also had to use extra screws and drill directly through the board to get it properly attached to the wall.
All in all, I would recommend this product to "DIY enthusiasts" because the scratching board itself is very good, and the price-performance ratio is unbeatable.

Okay
As already mentioned, the parts for hanging are a bit rubbish. They come loose and aren’t really stable. But you can make it work. Just use 4 larger screws at the corners where the plush ends and hang the board directly on the wall. Holds perfectly. The heart is still holding up for now too.

For the price, it's fine.
My two tomcats like using it, and it protects the corners in the flat a bit for a small price. For the price, it’s really fine. However, it’s a bit short if you have large cats, and the heart on the string was torn off by my two within two days of hanging it up.

Scratching boards
When attaching the scratching boards, the eyelets broke immediately. The screws and wall plugs that came with it are rubbish. I had to use different screws and wall plugs. After one day, the hearts broke as well. Despite the price, I think the scratching boards are okay.

Quite alright
I can confirm that the eyelets fell out straight away. However, I had to use large screws immediately and attach it properly anyway, but that's because of my cat, 7.1 kilos (Norwegian Forest Cat). The price is absolutely fine.
As for the tears in the wallpaper, I found them really awful. Now the big guy hangs on the board instead of the wallpaper, haha, looks much better.

Very satisfied
Does what it promises: The cat loves hanging on it, and it sticks well to the wall. So I recommend it to anyone who wants to do something nice for their cat without spending a lot of money :-)

Quality could be better!
My two British Shorthair kittens like it, but after less than two weeks, the plush and even the sisal are coming apart. The quality could be better.

Poor quality of the fastening
When screwing the board in place, the eyelet already came loose from the strap, and I had to improvise with some washers. The strap attached to the board doesn’t seem to be of good quality either. Later on, you might be able to fix it with a roller shutter strap if needed.
I’m curious to see how long the scratching board will withstand the wear and tear from my cat.

Lower quality ...
The mounting fixtures are just textile hangers; the eyelets come loose from the material as soon as you screw through them! - The "dangling" toy was off in no time after my cat pulled on it once...! - Absolutely substandard item, nowhere near worth its price...

Favourite scratching spot for all three!
I bought this to help stop the youngest member of the feline family (just under a year), Oliver, from scratching the carpet upstairs. I was concerned when I first received it because I had forgotten to buy more catnip which I usually spread on a new scratching post or board to encourage them to use it but it turned out not to be an issue. Even though there are three cat trees with scratching posts (that they also use), this one is bar far the favourite - for all three! I moved it downstairs and they all have to have a scratch at it every time they go by. I'm buying another one so I can have one upstairs and one downstairs. :)

My cats love it!
Despite the nylon loops for hanging, which other cat owners have already criticised for tearing off easily, the scratching board is absolutely adored by both cats and is used several times a day. Tip: it's best to attach the board directly with nails or screws!

Great
pretty much perfect, versatile and space saving compared to a cat tree and price can't be beaten. Has definitely reduced carpet scratching in the upstairs landing area. Agree on the tabs not being strong enough and ditto the elastic attaching the dangly toy; 6 month old Hanni had ripped it off within minutes. Overall great.

Perfect
We've got an old chair that we've decked out with scratch boards because they cats have always loved to scratch the chair. Now we've put these scratch boards on top of the old ones. The fit is perfect and the value for money is excellent. I can thoroughly recommend these

Perfect
We have an old armchair – we covered the corners with scratching boards because the cats were always scratching there anyway. Now the old boards have been replaced with these two new ones. The size was perfect, and I think the value for money is great. I can recommend it.

Right choice
4 stars only because the loops rip when you attach the board with screws. I put this board on the floor with our wooden door and it can take the weight of my 6 kilo cat getting stuck in. This board has put an end to scratched door posts and it's a lovely little alternative to the normal cat tree. Great price too!

Right purchase decision
4* only because the eyelets tear out when mounting with screws. I installed the board on the wooden door frame, it holds perfectly on the brackets. My tomcat (around 6 kilos) hangs on it and tears at it with joy. My cat has finally stopped scratching the door frames at night. A lovely alternative to the scratching post, and the price is right!
