My cats like cardboard scratchers. We’ve been through several expensive versions that ended up looking pretty ratty though the cats still enjoyed using them. This scratcher has been a popular lounging place and a dining table as well as a way for the cats to express their frustration with me when dinner is delayed lol. It’s nice-looking and if it holds up, I’ll be very happy with my purchase.

I liked this for a while and my cat loves to scratch it and sleep on it, but eventually I found it impractical. If she steps on it on either end or moves towards the end, it tilts and then slams back down with a big thud sound, which freaks her out and is really loud and disruptive. Plenty of other scratchers that are nice looking that don’t have this design flaw.

Size was good

My cat stepped on from the front and it flipped the first time he tried to use it. It’s a waste of money. There is nothing under the front or back to stabilize

My cat stepped on from the front and it flipped the first time he tried to use it. It’s a waste of money. There is nothing under the front or back to stabilize it. It’s now leaned against a sofa for an upright scratcher.

Smaller than expected

This is a quality Mau product so leaving a good review although I don’t think it’s going to be usuable for me. I have a Maine Coon and it’s just a bit too small

This is a quality Mau product so leaving a good review although I don’t think it’s going to be usuable for me. I have a Maine Coon and it’s just a bit too small for him and he also has never had a cardboard scratcher so he just ignores it. Probably going to see what my return options are since it hasn’t been used.

Useful and attractive

My cat loves to sleep on her scratching bed and I thought this would be a more appealing sight. I love the way it looks and my kitty loves it too!

I was given this cat scratcher by my granddaughter and after a while I realized it did not look like I could turn it over to use the underside. So I unscrewed the scratching part and turned it over, screwed it back in and the cats seem to like it just as much even though it is a mound instead of a valley. If I did not try this it would have been such a waste which would have been costly.

Please do not waste your money on this product, you are paying for a name, not quality. It’s confusing to put together, and I’ve had it for two months, gently, moved to sweep up all of the cardboard pieces, and the leg broke off, apparently, it was glued on. Chewy has many wonderful products, this is not one of them.

Meh

I’d return it but I disposed of the packaging. The thing is too lightweight and tips over if you use it as a vertical scratcher and the cat puts its weight on one

I’d return it but I disposed of the packaging. The thing is too lightweight and tips over if you use it as a vertical scratcher and the cat puts its weight on one end or the other. Good to sit on but I can get that for well under 40 bucks.

My two very active kitties love this. They are pretty particular about what they will scratch on, they took to this instantly. I like the option of being able

My two very active kitties love this. They are pretty particular about what they will scratch on, they took to this instantly. I like the option of being able to move the legs to different positions.

Had to assemble Not worth it

Had to put this together with screws and seemed ridiculous to screw cardboard scratcher as well. It won't be fun changing out the refill. Not worth it.
