Bargain and well loved!
Both my british blues love this! It does topple over on occasions but that’s because my babies are a little boisterous. I’ve purchased two and will continue to come back for more. I’d love if there was an option to buy the sisal part as a replacement as it does feel a waste binning the base when it’s still in good condition. But at £14 I can’t complain too much!

Olga scratching post
I have bought 2 of these which our large cat loves but eventually the sisal unwraps sheds lots of strands everywhere. It would be good if you could buy a replacement post to screw on to the base which is still in good condition rather than have to replace it all.

Fab cat scratcher
Good quality scratcher nice size and even for my growing ragdoll, have bought 2 in past 3 years as the rope gets scruffy but good value and would buy again.

Good for the price
We have three cats and these posts last on average between 3 and 6 months. Depends upon how much time they spend indoors.

Price fluctuations
Amending a previous review to say I bought this both times at £11.99 (not on a sale) and now notice it’s £18.99 and others are noting other prices in their reviews so if you’re going to buy maybe hold off until you see it go back down to the reasonable price of £11.99

good quality, great price
fairly sturdy as well.
The only thing is it would be nice if there was somewhere kitten or cat could perch at the top.

I Went To Order Anothe One But Its Gone Up By £5 In A Short Space Of Time !
I was going to order another one today but when i looked at the price it has gone up from £13.99 to £18.99 surely this cant be right ?

Great value, but don’t last
This is the second of these I have bought and they both unravelled. But they are cheap and so despite them not lasting, they represent good value

Change in materials
Have had these several times before as they have been excellent. I have just received three more and the string on them is very thin, more like standard string in thinness rather than sisal rope. Time will tell if this change in material has a negative impact on the duration of the product - I suspect it will, hence the middle star review. This change is a shame as they were brilliant and very robust previously.

Good value and the cats love them
These were such a good price, we got 2 for our 3 kittens, to help keep them off the furniture, thinking we would have them in separate rooms. Actually the best game is jumping from one post to the other so we keep them together! They are slightly insecure and will probably break eventually with all the playing, but they are more than worth the money.

A great buy.
Only got today, but so far so good. I have 2 x 9 month old kittens who are scratching absolutely everything especially the spindles on the stairs, they do have a cat tree but that's in one place. They thankfully immediately took to this. It's sturdy but definitely needs to be against a wall when they're leaping onto it as they're very boisterous. They've already stretched to their length & still room to go. A good buy & will be buying some more to place around the house.

Great for stretching, bit wobbly though
My cats both love this post - it is tall enough for them to stretch up it full-length (though they are not particularly big cats. Might be too short for a taller one)
They also like to run up it & perch on the top like a demented bird.
But however much I tighten the nut on the bottom, the pole does wobble quite a bit on the base. I've tried adding a couple of metal washers between the pole & the base but that doesn't help - I will buy a couple of thicker rubber ones & see what that does.
(The cats don't mind the wobble but I'm concerned it might snap suddenly sometime & fling them against the wall)

Solution to big problem!!
This very tall post stopped both my birmans scratching on the carpet!! They really love it!!

Simple but effective
This scratching post is nice and tall so my cats can have a good stretch on it as well as scratching and climbing up it. It was easy to assemble and so far is standing up to daily wear and tear. Good value for the money
