Frisco 62-in Modern Cat Tree & Condo

Quality seems good for the price. A couple of the hardware bits can be seen in the final product but not terrible. I might cover them with stickers if it keeps bothering me. Pillows feel soft but kind of cheap. My cat loves to climb. He will climb literally anything. I read the reviews and thought I dont think they will be a problem for him. Unfortunately it seems to be the case. The top is confusing for my cat to get up and down on. I twisted it to the side like some suggested and he still struggles to get up and down. He almost fell off but managed to save himself thankfully. The bottom skid pad is nice. I wish they had one for the top because he can't seem to get traction up there.

It's his first day with it and he may adjust. I'll change my review if he does. I may just take the top part off and put the pillow on top of the top box. He seems to stay up there more than the top perch. Overall pretty good though he seems to like it. Cat is 8-9 pounds and 9 months old for reference. … more

Great instructions, easy to put together, just took a little time with all the parts, but everything was well labeled. One of my cats that didn't like our big carpet tree crawled in the top house before I even finished putting it together. I was a little concerned about the top level not 'hugging' the cats because the other tree had a round top level, but they seem to have adjusted just fine. The bottom box is not a hit, but my cats really don't like enclosed houses, so I wasn't expecting them to like it. I love love how the fluffy pads are velcroed to the tree so you can remove and wash them, and the pads also don't slip around, which, as all cat people know, would FREAK out a cat.

I needed a tree that would be easier to clean, wasn’t sure my cat would like it. The building took longer than I expected, and it was harder than my previous tree, but my cat jumped on it 10 minutes after I completed it, he tried every platform but hasn’t tried the bottom cubby yet, it is a little to close to the ground, not sure it will get much use. This tree smaller and so are the platforms and cubbys, than I expected. The top platform is difficult for him to up to, that’s the only problem I see in the design. Hope this review is helpful

My two kittens have been using this tree for about two months now, and there are a lot of things that I (and they) love about it. First of all, it is definitely one of the most aesthetically pleasing cat trees that I’ve seen. The height is fantastic so that they can oversee the entire living room from the top perch. I also appreciate that the faux fur mats are easily removable for washing. My cats really love the top half of this tree. They are often playing and jumping out of the highest box or taking turns napping on the top perch. My biggest gripe is that they can’t access the top without a lot of modifications.

I first placed this tree in front of a window, but with no other surfaces around it, they couldn’t climb to the top (and they are both skilled climbers). One of them actually fell off of it twice trying to get down. As other reviewers have noted, the problem is that platforms are too small for them to safely maneuver to go up or down. I solved this problem for them by moving the tree directly next to my couch so that they can hop onto the second platform from there. I also drilled a different hole to attach the sisal post to the top perch. The post is intended to attach in the center of the box, but the new hole is drilled as close to the edge as I could put it so that the cats have enough space on the platform to get up and down. I don’t know that this would work for most as this might cause it to tip over, but it works for my kittens since I am able/had to put the tree in a corner. Another note is that I don’t think that this would work at all for larger cats. My cat in this picture is about 8 pounds and while you can see that she fits when curled up, when she sprawls out even a little, her feet and tail are hanging off of the edge. I wanted to love this tree so much, and while it is cute, I don’t think that it’s going to be practical for most cats and people. … more

This for sure is a much more attractive Cat Condo in comparison to most on the market, unfortunately just not to cats. I bought this to replace an older condo and the cats are just too scared to use it. It is too slippery and they have fallen off more than once. There is also no ledge for them to get to the top perch from so they wont even attempt to get up there. I will be donating this one to a local rescue and getting the old Frisco Cat Condo that my cats did love prior to this one.

This tree is definitely stylish enough to put anywhere, and the height is good. It took both our cats a while to figure it out - it’s a little hard to climb for them at first. I read a review that said it was easier if you turn the highest tier about 45 degrees, and that extra room to step underneath it makes all the difference for my cat. Once he learned how to get up there, he sleeps at the top every night. The other cat likes to lay in the floor more, but he uses the second highest tier on occasion. I think the bottom cubby is cute, but it’s a bit small for our 15 lb boys and they don’t really use it. Assembly wasn’t too bad with my husband and I working together.

Poor design. There is no traction for cat to jump. Even I put the toppers layer to 45 degree angle, my cats will still slip when they try to jump on it. Plus my cats hated the material of the white pad, so now they won’t use it . Even though I put them on it , they will still jump off from it. Money wasted. Thanks

Still looks like a cat tree, but it looks nicer than the carpet covered ones. My cats love it. My normal sized younger cat has no problem getting to the top! And she loves it. My big guy is happy on the lower larger platform. They both use the scratching areas.

Weirdly enough only one cat, out of the five cats I live with, has confidential figured out how to get to the top platform or maybe only one of them really cares to go up there. Still figuring it out, I bought the tree about a month ago. It’s weird, I even put treats up there to encourage them to go up, but frankly they struggle to get up (but that can be entertaining). I don’t like recommending things so that’s why I’m not, but I will say I don’t hate my purchase and now one of the cats has a bed that’s just his pretty much, so that’s kind of cool, for him.

I loved the look of this design and that it was very allergy-friendly — washable pillows and the rest could be wiped down very easily. Unfortunately, the wood is actually a laminate and is very slippery, so the cats couldn't get any traction and the levels aren't offset enough for them to easily navigate up and down. In fact, my one cat fell off and hit the wall before landing on the ground and now neither cat will come near this. I'm disappointed, but I think a bit of a redesign by the manufacturer might make this work.
