This pole seemed good at first; however, within just a few days of very little use it became very wobbly.At first I thought it was just a question of tightening up the screw but it made no difference.I then realised that a whole piece of the platform (a rectangular piece that seemed to have been glued to the platform and on which the pole sits) had come off completely.The only way to fix it was by screwing this piece to the base with several screws.The material of the base is very flaky though.

My new 10 week old kitten and 5 month old kitten launched at the pole and the 3cm hole gave way and the top just toppled away from the base. the kittens went flying. Fortunately they fell forward with the pole, if one had been on the other side he would have got squashed. The base is made of chipboard, and the board had just crumbled and shattered on the top, under the covering...you can feel large lumps under the fur. Underneath is not so bad. Very POOR QUALITY, or faulty. BE WARNED, DANGEROUS

Hadn’t realised how big this was, when I first got it I thought it was awesome!! Got a friend to buy one aswell... 3 average size cats, and 3 weeks later the sisal’s coming off... it’s not going to last them 6 months... really disappointed, baring in mind I bought this £42 post to replace the £14 Olga that lasted over 3 years!!
