Frisco 62-in Modern Cat Tree & Condo

I am on step 1 right now. It's been 45 minutes since I've started and I have had to bring out my drill, hammer, and super glue in order to get Part B (the cam locks) to actually screw in. The fasteners the cam locks go into just spin around in their holes forever so I've had to drill the cam lock in a little, then use the hammer to pry the fastener out, add super glue to the walls the fastener touches, let it dry, then drill the cam locks tight. If there's a better way to do this, it's unclear as the instructions included 9 steps into the first step. And as a disclaimer, I've built MANY DIY furniture over the years. I have no problem with the wordless manuals of IKEA furniture, I pay attention I am on step 1 right now.

This is seriously so bad that I had to stop building to write this review and calm down a little. Will add more if I ever finish. … more

It wasn't really until I got it all together that I realized that there's really no room for a cat to jump from the level with the top condo to the very top perch and it's even hard for them to get from the layer above the bottom condo to the top condo. If you have it positioned by other furniture that helps them leap it might work for you. But it's kind of a large and expensive door stop for me right now.

This piece of furniture is beautiful with a nice wood but the way it's stacked the cat does not like to jump up on it and won't use it and it took hours to assemble because of the amount of screws that it had and they were so difficult to put in. I definitely wouldn't recommend this unless you have a really light weight small cat that likes to jump difficult jumps. My cat hates it but loved other post.

This cat tree looks amazing and feels very sturdy. I love the removable, washable mats. However, the person who designed this cat tree must not have any cats. All of the platforms are too small for my adult cat to use. He has no room to turn or situate himself. It would have been better if at least one of the poles went all the way up. My kittens are also barely fitting on the top platform. In addition, we had to drill a new hole and move the top platform over to give the cats room to jump up, because the way it was set up made it impossible for any of my three cats to get to the top. As soon as my two kittens turn one, we'll likely donate this to a shelter because I don't see how adult cats This cat tree looks amazing and feels very sturdy. I love the removable, washable mats.

I LOVE this cat tree. It is so modern, chic, and clean looking. The grey is a beautiful accent to the room and the two blankets are SO soft. My only complain is that the corners of the various levels are Sharp. They have drawn blood on me when I have walked past, several times. If this isn't in a high traffic area or spot you will have to squeeze by, I highly recommend.

I have two cats and they both have their own spots on this pretty perch. Little girl loves being high/on the top perch, though I admit she didn't go up there at first. One person said to turn the top to the side a bit. I did that and she was able to get up there just fine, but it was a challenge before that. Big boi loves to snuggle up inside that middle part or occasionally hide in the bottom box. All the sleep areas are incredibly soft and fluffy, and the kitties sleep there for hours. When they're chasing each other around the apartment, one or the other will jump up and scratch the post like their life depends on it—glad they take their zoomie-energy out on those rather than my furniture I have two cats and they both have their own spots on this pretty perch.

Pros: Sturdy, attractive (!?!), simple assembly Cons: The design is just flawed. The top perch simply doesn't work. I was hoping that my young cats could navigate it, but it just sucks. Also, the manufacturer doesn't offer replacement products such as the little pads or the scratching posts. Conclusion: So I unscrewed the top perch altogether and slapped the fluffy pad on the second boxtop and now my cats use that as the top perch. I'm disappointed to have lost out on the height and it does stink that such a simple design flaw is jacking up an otherwise great product.

The problem with this cat tower is the top shelf. The way it’s positioned on the box the cat has a hard time getting down off of it. It isn’t offset for them to be able to step down so they end up jumping from the top to the bottom which is problematic. Prettt disappointed.

I always wanted a tree of good quality that also fitted into my aesthetic for my fur baby. This has been an amazing option for them! I bought it in august of 2020 and it arrived incredibly fast. The assembly process was time consuming but mostly because I did it all by myself. It still stands just as pretty as the day I got it and my now 3 babies love it! Even tho is not the sturdiest (I blame myself because of my building abilities) my babies climb all the way to the top of it and down with no problem! And after having this one for 5 and a half months I decided to purchase a second one. Same brand and aesthetic just the smaller model. 10/10 Venom: is the purr-fect napping spot 10/10 I always wanted a tree of good quality that also fitted into my aesthetic for my fur baby.

My cat can’t get past the first platform because everything is too close together and the wood is slippery so he can’t get a foothold. I wish I would have known before spending literal hours putting this together! It was a good idea but executed poorly. Please don’t buy this product.
