I have had mine for 1 year now. The “tower” looks just like it did after assembly with the exception of a couple places my cat especially likes for scratching. It was very easy to put together, the directions were very clear. I love the faux fur because it is very easy to vacuum and get hair off. This “tower” will be around for many years yet and my cat absolutely loves it.

The product arrived exactly as specified. It’s quite sturdy, maybe a tad shaky, but nothing that deterred our kitties from having fun. The product is very well crafted and was super-easy to assemble.
The design makes it easy for the cats to get from one level to the next. They did have to work a bit to reach the highest platform, but they figured it out, and once they’re full-grown it’ll be a breeze. They love the ball on the elastic string, and a 2nd ball was included for replacement too. That was an added bonus.
This was really a great purchase and terrific value.

I ordered this product on a Sunday and it arrived on the following Thursday. I would say that was super fast! I’m very pleased with the quality and price. Assembly was simple enough and it has everything the cats like, lounging area, toys and height.

Well lets face it, if you are buying a cat big cat scratcher, they are all made of particle board and cheapy plastic pieces; all of them unless you make it yourself. It wobbles slightly but is better than I had expected. I suggest that you put it up against a wall and anchor the second from the top highest platform to the wall with an L bracket that you can pick up at any hardware store. If you do that, this thing is pretty solid.

It is easy to assemble, quite sturdy and looks good. My cat was a little scared at first (the condo is 6′ high), but after a few hours of exploring found the way up. The hanging toy died during the first 15 minutes, but it’s not a big deal. If you have a large breed cat it may not fit on all the levels, the shelves are quite small. In general works great for my cat and the price is lower than in Petsmart or Care-a-lot.

At the time of purchase, we had 3 large adult cats and wanted a good, solid cat tree for them. This being somewhat more expensive than other scratching posts, we did some research and found excellent reviews of the Armarkat trees, which influenced my decision to buy one.
This is the model we settled upon, and the cats loved it from the moment we started assembly. We have pictures documenting “testing” at every stage of assembly. They use it constantly. We now have 1 adult cat, 1 catling and 1 kitten, and they all use it to scratch, sit, perch, play and run. (The kitten climbs up to the top using the posts, unlike the bigger cats who just jump up from level to level!)
It is now 3 years later and it is still going strong. Even with the enthusiastic up-and-down chasing play of the kitten and catling, the cat tree remains sturdy and has never even come close to toppling (to answer another reviewer, who felt it needed to be attached to the wall). One of the lower posts is beginning to show some wear, but I know the company sell replacements. What we’ll probably just do is rotate some of them around first.
In short, we are all (humans and felines) extremely happy with this product. When it eventually becomes too worn, we’ll happily replace it with another Armarkat cat tree.

This kitty playground is a real winner with our “kitty grandchild”. Our son’s cat is loving this. He practically lives on it. Every feature gets some attention. Great product!

This is a wonderful product to buy for your cat. My cat loves to climb on all the levels and especially to perch at the very top looking out the window at the birds at our feeders. He also likes to swat and play with the toy that hangs on the upper level (a spare is included as well) and scratch at the posts. It’s a sturdy design and the neutral color will go well with any room. Your cat will thank you for buying this!
