Frisco 88 to 106-in 3 Level Floor to Ceiling Heavy Duty Cat Tower

Pluses: 1) Price was excellent. 2) The cats enjoy it. 3 )It was relatively easy to assemble. Minuses: 1) There was so much plastic-industrial vapor coming out of the components that I choked from the air - even with the windows open - after a few minutes. I ousted the parts to the patio for 3 days and even after that it was still enough to get me coughing. It took a couple of weeks and an air purifier to get the smell to the point where I could tolerate it. 2) The top surface of the tower and my popcorn-style stucco ceiling did not work well together - the tower slides away from anything like an upright position every single time a cat jumps onto it.

Within a few days the top's about a foot away from where I put it. I've tightened all the joints but no success. I think the only way to get it to stay vertical would be to drill holes in the ceiling and the top piece and put a long, thick bolt in a few inches off from center. … more

This cat tree was so easy to set up, it only took about 20 minutes with two people. Most of that time was spent getting the tension right and straightening it with a few hammer taps. The material is very sturdy and no holes have appeared yet from the cats playing on it. They love to play "king of the hill" and push each other off the top level. We put our tower by the window, so they boys can watch our birdfeeder in the mornings.

My kitties love being up higher then me. They love to watch from above and look down. Just seems natural for them. I only wish the one of the platforms was a little bigger then the other so they had more room to jump to the very top. My one cat is bigger then the other and it’s to much of a straight up jump. If that makes sense. But we love it.

I got this for our 2 kittens when they were 4 months old. They are indoor-only cats. They play on it a lot, chasing each other up and down the tree. Our vet complimented our kitties good muscle tone and fitness for indoor-only cats. I'm sure it's because of this tree. One cat naps on the top shelf most days. Each shelf is slightly padded, which I think makes it comfortable for him. They also use the bottom section for scratching often, but not the top sections, so it's holding up well and not getting torn-up like other reviewers warned. I guess it depends on your cats. It's tough enough for my 2 cats. Oh, also, it looks nice in my house. It has a clean, modern look.

Product is supposed to fit rooms 88-106" in height but does not - we tried it at 96", 99" and 106" and tightened everything as much as possible (with additional tools and meticulously following written and video instructions) and it was consistently too tall or too short. It damaged our ceiling due to incorrect measurements so not only was this a waste of several hours but is going to cost us still more in home repairs. Negative 2 stars.

My kitties are running and jumping to the top of this thing every single day. It is too cute! It was super easy to put together. The video was a must to put it together but was still quick. Very strudy. It is big but I have it in a corner. Love it.

I just got this so at this point I only gave a 4 star. But will update later. I've had other towers like this, and unless you want to spend big $ then I believe the quality is great for the price point. I followed the on line video and tree was up in about 20 minutes. I used a Cresent wrench to help turn the top. I have 9 rescue cats ranging from 8 to 15 pounds so this will get a beating. I haven't had a tree that I didn't secure to wall in some way just to help sturdy them. Think about it. Tall pole being pounced on continually. And I am also sure the fabric is a little sketchy, but I am prepared to replace when the time comes. I love the size of poles and shelves for my big boys, so for now I just got this so at this point I only gave a 4 star. But will update later.

Yes, this is more expensive than other products, but you get what you pay for. This is a sturdy design with quality materials. It was easy to install with two people. It could be tricky with one. I reconfigured it to have the bed platform in the middle. My kitties love it. It's their favorite perch.

This cat tower replaced one that was smaller but took up more space in length and width. This tower gives my kitty the height she likes to sit at but we aren't tripping over it. It takes two people to put it together though. It's a little complicated

This went up easy, even the top part that had to extend. My female is a scardy cat as well as almost 14 and fell off of it a few times, the material is soft and she couldn’t grip. It looks very sleek and is sturdy though so I like it a lot. Hopefully she gets the hang of it.
