The colour differs significantly.
The colour doesn’t even remotely match a dark beige tone. It’s more like white/cream. The workmanship is poor. Not stitched seamlessly. Whatever. Too much hassle to exchange it. But still annoying.

Looks good but my cat doesn’t even touch
My cat doesn’t play even I put catnip

Not very durable
I don’t have any issues with the mount, as others have mentioned, but the board itself isn’t particularly sturdy. The heart came off very quickly. We’re now using it as a separate toy. The plush edge looks nice, but it comes apart quickly if the cats miss the sisal surface. And even the sisal surface frays faster than with other products...

Fastenings inadequate
The board itself is fine, but the straps for fastening are inadequate. It's better to drill directly through the four corners of the board. That way, everything stays in place.

slowed down at the finish line
In principle, the scratching board is well made, but the mounting options don't satisfy me. Since it involves eyelets in fabric loops, the board has too much play when mounted on the wall, and mounting it "under tension" is also not advisable, as the loops haven't been stapled in the same position on every scratching board. As soon as the hardware store reopens, I'll get some small perforated metal plates and use them to create a more rigid mounting.

Well received
My cats pretty much accepted it straight away, but I’m deducting stars for the attachment: it’s not really secure because of the loops, and for the workmanship: the toy on the elastic band is nice, but after 2 days it had already torn off and was no longer interesting.

It needs reworking
As some others have said, the fixing straps are not up to the job. The eyelet came out within 10 minutes and the straps do not give a tight fix to the wall. Solution, cut of the tags and throw the screws, get 15mm longer screws and screw straight through the board. Otherwise it looks good value for money and if it stops our 4 Bengal Persian crosses ripping the wallpaper off its worth it.

Lovely Scratch board - but loose staples!!
Lovely scratch board in a neutral colour..but just to make others aware that the staples attaching the faux fur trim came out - whilst my cat was on it!
Apart from that we like it. I'll be taking all the staples out and glueing the trim back on.

Decent for the price
I wanted it to hang on the wall corner and it was really easy to attach.my cat weights only 5kg and the straps holding it are already breaking after few days. Great product but maybe it should have metal brackets

Insufficient fastening
The zoolove scratching board was delivered with unsuitable screws – the supplied screws don’t fit into the eyelets intended for mounting. Even other standard screws were too thick, so in the end, a makeshift solution had to be used (removing the eyelets, adding a metal washer plus a new screw). The board itself is lovely, serves its purpose, and is accepted by my cats.

Product is good, but the mounting isn't ideal.
The small loops don’t provide enough support on the wall.
We drilled the board directly into the wall using screws and washers, and now it’s rock solid.
Other than that, it’s great, and the cats love using it.

Annoying during assembly
Unfortunately, the supplied screws didn’t fit through the mounting eyelets. Tried to screw in the first one (or at least attempted to), and it got stuck in the eyelet. When unscrewing it, the eyelet came off as well. Tried the same thing with the second eyelet, thinking it might have been my mistake, but that wasn’t the case. Ended up throwing away the supplied screws and buying new ones from the hardware store... frustrating.
Now it’s hanging!

Mediocre
The board itself is sturdy and looks good. Unfortunately, the four straps used to attach the screws to the wall are not the ideal solution. The board wobbles, and the cat can reach behind it from the side. The toy heart is nice enough, but the claws often end up next to the board, leaving additional scratch marks on the wall. I should have spent more money on a sturdier version with better mounting options.

Great product
I now have 2 of these scratching corners.
Since our ladies feel the need to scratch the wallpaper.
- Appearance: It's quite okay and fits well with our style.
- Installation: Unfortunately, it's a bit loose on the wall, no matter how much you tighten the 4 straps, it doesn't look great. But you can live with it.
- Purpose: Unfortunately missed. The cats avoid the scratching corners, but they are still very useful as wallpaper protectors.
Worth trying for the price.

Popular scratching spot
The scratching board is loved by my two little rascals. Every time they walk past, they have a scratch :) But the straps for attaching it are absolutely rubbish. We ended up drilling it directly into the wall, and now it stays put.

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.

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.

Mounting "not worth a toss"
It's fine for laying down. However, there are problems when you want to mount it on the wall. The nylon fabric where the rivets are attached was different lengths on my board. So, getting it straight is quite tricky ;)
Once it's hanging on the wall, the nylon stretches so much that the rivet comes loose. Brilliant! I've now fixed the board to the wall using picture hanging loops on wall screw hooks. That way, it holds properly. Even if you'd drilled, the rivets would have failed. This really needs to be addressed urgently.
