Bought this for my BSH kitten and at first it seemed to be just what she needed. Heavy, big enough for her to climb on and it looked good. She’s still only a kitten and it’s falling to pieces. Sisal all unwinding and the fur all worn away. Didn’t think it’d last forever but 6 months is ridiculous

I have bought a number of these over the last few years. They have substituted with a very poor product. The sisal rope came off within days of the cats using it. It's about a 3rd smaller and not as robust. Extremely disappointed!

After buying this same scratch post last year (and it lasted 4 maine coons very well), I reordered hoping for the same quality...unfortunately this new one is certainly not suitable for large breeds. It's been up 5 mins and knocked over twice and there's not enough stretch room for it due to the redesign of the post. The quality of it is poor in comparison (feels much cheaper material and post is thinner and shorter). Now looking to re-cover the old one as this one won't last!

i was hoping that this scratch post was of similar quality to the other products i have purchased over the years and was surprised at how quickly it fell apart the sisal has started to come off and as for the felt covering i have clumps of the material dotted around the hallway as the kittens discovered how quickly they could peel the material. i have to throw this item away now as the cardboard at the top has caved in

I have purchased 2 of these posts in the past and each has lasted a number of years. The new I got today is not as tall and the base is smaller. Also the sisal is thinner and doesn’t extend up the post as high as my previous post. Really disappointed. I will put photos showing the difference.

I still have an older version of the post ( 5 years) unfortunately the new version of the post is a very poor quality especially the top plush and the sisal is not so good as used to, I had to replace it 3 times within 2 weeks.

My two cats loved taking turns climbing up the tall pole and sitting on the top. Unfortunately, within 2 weeks the pole broke away from the very thin base. We decided to place it lengthwise on the floor as it gave them a good stretch out but 2 weeks later the sisal had ripped apart and unravelled so we had mess everywhere. Great pole for the cats but poor quality means it's a waste of money for 2-4 weeks use.

Poor copy of the original. Not as high or wide and is falling to pieces after only one week of use. Had two originals for years and this one was meant as a replacement but is of a far poorer standard. Bring back the original version!

I've had two of these for years and they were brilliant and are still going strong. I ordered this one for my sister, it came and it's a lot smaller in width and height and is falling to pieces after only a week of use! Bring back the old version.

I have bought this post before or so I thought, when it came it was a lot smaller. My large Maine Coon cats are too big for it, they loved their old ones and now I will have to look elsewhere for another one. Nothing was written that it was smaller, and as I have purchased some before I never looked at the reviews. I am very disappointed that I thought I was buying what I have bought before

have bought this post many times now and getting totally fed-up with the quality, doesn't last any length of time. my two ragdolls use it on daily basis but after a couple of weeks it starts to fall apart, the sisal rope is only wound round and not glued so after time the rope snaps and leaves a mess. honestly please don't waste your money, very very poor quality.

On previous/similar versions the sisal started closer to the top. This starts 8" from the top consequently if my two cats (4kg, not monsters) stretch their claws are above the sisal. Instead they don't stretch as much and the top few inches show all the wear and the sisal is coming off in less than three months. I normally replace every year so this feels like poor value.

Why are these getting SMALLER I bought one 3-4 years ago and my cats loved it! I have two Adult Maine Coons and they would climb up and scratch have ordered a replacement and I am so disappointed so very very small in comparison!!!! I would rather have the original big size and pay more than this tiny one that my cats hate!

My order has just arrived & I had to contact CS as it is not what I ordered, I expected the post to be like the post I purchased previously.No where did it say that the original post had been replaced with an inferior one.The older one I thought I'd ordered is a thicker post with more scratching area & a square base, the one I received is thinner & has hardly any scratching area. No use for my 2 large cats.Zooplus should say if they have substituted an item.This one is going back :-(

I brought the jumbo one about 2 years ago and lasted really well especially with a Maine coon cat, replaced with this one within 24hours had holes appear in it, so they sent a replacement and again within 6 weeks the post was falling apart. Very disappointed with this product. Bring the old jumbo one back that was much better quality.

This is the 3rd time I've bought this scratch post and it is now considerably smaller than the old one for the same price! Going to have to find a replacement elsewhere next time! My cats used to love running up to the top and sitting there not sure they'll be able to do it as well on this post.

used to be Jumbo size now is smaller size and not so stable like old one disappointed

We have had one of these before, and it has lasted nearly 2 years with large cats, maine coon and norwegians, so we thought we would get 2 more for the other cats normal sized cats, put up and due to a design change it lasted less than 20 mins before the pole pulled the base apart, the previous one had 2 screws holding it to the base the new one has one, would give no stars, but cant.

...it last 3 days only. The pole got detached from the base and I couldn't attached again. The hole in the base was loose. I just ordered a replacement. Hope it will last.

Cats love it but rope not glued to tube so only lasted a couple of weeks with my 3 bengals...
