Our cat had regularly scratched our furniture. She has a big cat tree where all the posts are wrapped for scratching, but if she is in another room... We have tried to train her, but she would "forget" on occasions.
We had picked up one in a store. The base was folded in half which needed to be unfolded to assemble and use. The mount screw broke the base, a large washer did not help, it wobbled a lot, and then was never used again. If you look at one of those designs, pass it over. Thankfully, this one is a solid one piece base.
We inherited another cat, and there goes the furniture and attempts at training again.
Bought two of these. Bases are sturdy and stable and our cats are using them instead of the furniture.
I did get some of the sticky plastic sheets for the furniture, and will cover the favorite spots, but these alone have helped.
If you can't get the cat to go to the scratching post, put a scratching post where they are.
Hope this helps
Jim

Cat used all the time.
This is my second time buying this. The first o e started to come apart at the top so I moved it to the basement (otherwise my dogs would have started chewing it. I bought another one for up stairs and my cat uses it a lot.

We removed the top but needed to cover up the screw so we added a silicone tumbler boot and some duct tape. With the addition of some dangling toys from our personal collection, it’s now a pretty good scratching post. :) it’s not bad, but it’s cheap and not super sturdy, so I wouldn’t recommend the one with the platform unless you have a kitten or something. We have other cat trees and just needed a scratching post in the bedroom to deter our kitty from scratching the bed, so this will fill the need for now.

Lightweight, about as sturdy as $20 will buy

We got the one with the platform on top thinking our gal might like a place to sit. Unfortunately, as soon as our rotund girl jumped off the top, it just about toppled over. Good thing I was right there! It’s sort of wobbly and unstable even without a cat on it, so we knew the platform was a no go.Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2024
