An elegant cat tree with a contemporary "burned" wood effect. It has solid wood cladding and the beautiful water hyacinth baskets have washable cushions. Dimensions: 58 x 58 x 139 cm (L x W x H)
The Scorched Wood Cat Tree is a lovely addition to your home. It is made with top quality, natural materials and the wood has been "burned" to give it a very beautiful and unique finish. No two cat trees look the same. The sturdy base plate is made from solid wood battens and the posts are covered in a solid wood cladding with the same scorched effect. The wood is a gorgeous, warm brown colour and the "scorched" effect emphasises the beautiful grain markings on the wood, making each cat tree unique and very special. Some sections of the wood covered posts are covered in brown, extra thick, natural sisal. The sisal has a diameter of 10mm so it can withstand the craziest of scratching sessions. The scratch posts allow your cat to indulge its natural instincts without ruining your furniture. The lovely basket and den are handmade from woven water hyacinth, a beautiful and unusual material. The high sides of the basket form a cosy area where your cat can snooze, or if it prefers, it can hide away in the snuggly den. There are soft, removable cushions which are easy to keep clean.
This cat tree is a real winner. Not only will your cat love it, it will also look stunning in your home.

Care and safety information:
Please note that the water hyacinth leaves used to manufacture the baskets have been coloured in order to achieve the desired dark colour for this product. You should avoid cleaning the water hyacinth baskets with water or other liquids, as this can lead to colour loss and staining.
Important information: As an added safety measure to support any cat tree as well as to prevent it accidentally tipping, we recommend using a wall bracket to secure the cat tree. Please check the product regularly for any damage, loose joints or screws and replace the item when it becomes defective to avoid any harm coming to your pet.
Tips for fixing to the wall: Check that the condition of the wall in the desired place is suitable before affixing brackets to the wall. Materials for mounting brackets are not included. We recommend that you purchase screws and wall plugs that are specifically designed to suit your wall from a specialised shop. Use special wall plugs and screws for concrete, hollow walls or plasterboard. Check the stability of the cat tree before allowing your cat to use it. Check the stability regularly and tighten the screws when needed.
After reading such mixed reviews of this tree I was hesitant whether to buy it but couldn't findanything with natural looking dark wood. Cats did not jump on it straight away like on the xl paradise one but after a few days all 3 were lovibg it :-)

Ollie's Sun Spot
So happy with this purchase and was considering another for upstairs but seems product not available for a while and sale price with no doubt be over by then. Basically I've become an orphan since it's gone up as Ollie is pretty much up there non stop and hasn't slept on my bed since it arrived :( He LOVES it! So do I! It's very sturdy and aesthetically gorgeous. I would highly recommend as I'm sure it will last for a long time to come

Looks great but cats wreck it
Look very posh and sturdy but the cats here had the top covered area wrecked within weeks and totally destroyed not with bits of basket everywhere.
They also thought the lowest level was a posh litter box!

Looks Fantastic
This cat tree went together really easily and looks amazing in my living room, it feels like a piece of furniture rather than just a cat tree.
The kitties love climbing all over it, but they don't like the cushions, our tiny kitten puts one paw on them and then makes a beeline round the outer edge of the basket, as soon as I wrapped the cushions in blankets she was happy to use all the pods.

Not holding up to the test of time...and my crazy cats.
I purchased mine on 28/04/18. You could say it had a good life and been very well-loved by my cats. Both of them use it daily, but the beautiful woven texture is something they love to claw.
I've been finding pieces of it around the living room for a few months, while it looks mostly intact still it's definitely got clear signs of wear and some little gaps where they've massacred it.
The top ball is also very sunbleached from being in the window.

Amazing quality
I purchased this 2-3 years ago and it's still in a perfect shape and condition. It's made from very good material and also looks great in the room. My baby cat loves it :) Would definitely recommend it!

looks good
This cat tree looks good, tallest basket is a bit wobbly and every time the cat jumps in it hits the wall and marks it, i wanted something sturdy that looked good and would last, but the top basket was trashed after only 6 months, it looked great until one cat discovered he could sit on top and literally claw the top of the basket to shreds, such a shame they don't sell replacement beds as now i must throw away the whole thing, as it looks awful!

Big enough
I bought this cat tree for my nine-month-old kitten, he is quite big. My kitten sleeps very well, he has plenty space to move while he is asleep. The only aspect that disappoints is the fact that the material is made of (water-hyacinth) is not very resistant, is not £100 worth. When I was assembling the whole tree, the baskets' material was coming off very easily.

Great product!
After reading some of the more negative reviews, I was a little hesitant to by this. However, it’s actually a great cat tree!
It’s very easy to assemble and pretty sturdy. I’d recommend leaning the taller of the post against a wall, as it does wobble slightly when the cats jump onto it. This is more to make the cats feel secure, rather than it posing any threat of collapse!
The baskets are a good size too. However, the material does flake slightly when scratched.

Looks Great - Lasts 5mins
I loved the look of this Cat Tree. I thought being wood and woven basket it would last longer than the fluffy chipboard covered ones. Well within 1 week the baskets had been clawed to shreds. The overall wood part has lasted, but theres no option to purchase Replacement Baskets. So you have to basically rebuild them yourself.

Beautiful, Quality product
My cats love these baskets and the climbing tree and it is sturdy and beautiful in my living room. Very straightforward assembly for me. Well worth the extra money, instead of those wobbly ugly beige fleece ones we had previously. I have replaced the pillows, as one of my cats hates them - he prefers firm floors. As soon as I took them out, he sighed with relief and snuggled up in the top basket and went to sleep :)

Love it.
Fantastic product. Bought this tree to replace the cat tree we had in the conservatory but due to the style and quality of this product it has ended up staying in our living room. All the cats love it, even our ginger boy who doesn't usually sleep in cat beds has taken to sleeping in the bottom basket. Our Bengal has claimed the hooded basket and is regularly found either sleeping in or sat on top survey his kingdom. excellent value for money.

Bought These cat trees 2 months ago. They have been the worst buy ever as they are in tatters now with my cats scratching the rattan beds. Look good but a complete Waste of money.

Maine Coons love it
Good looking, sturdy enough to handle a couple of pet elephants! Mine has been jumped on by two Maine Coons, weighing around 9kgs each now. It does wobble occasionally and needs a quick tighten up from time to time, but other than that it's a great cat tree. One of the nicest I have owned.

Looked great... For a while
Initially the tree looked great, but after only a couple months two oriental kittens have managed to completely dismantle the baskets. Thus not only looking awful, but also leaving our living room covered in basket weave which we need to clean up on a daily basis. Extremely disappointed with its durability.

Looks good but not made to last
As a breeder of British Shorthair cats i always look for good quality cat trees that last. Unfortunately this cat tree does not last. I have had mine for less than 4 months for the kittens to use . It is falling apart with holes in it where the weave has come out and is looks so shabby. Extremely disappointed with this product. I still have a banana leaf tree i purchased 3 years ago and its still like new!! And considering they were same price i know which one i would rather spend my money ....

Oriental cat proof
I have 5 oriental cats, 2 siamese, 2 bites and a tonk, they can destroy most things, and their last cat tree lasted less than 6 months, including getting replacement parts from the supplier.
This one is great, they love it. They sleep in it, play with it, throw up on it and it still looks brilliant.
We switched the covered basket and the deep basket round, just because we know they like to sit up high and look out.

Super nice tree
Easy to assemble, fits my two fully grown Siamese cats (4-5kgs each) perfectly. Might not be for small kittens or huuuuge cats though..
