Super popular toy, but the motor itself is falling behind. At first I thought there was cat hair in the gears, but it's actually the motor—didn't take long. I would have paid more for a toy that didn't break so quickly.
By the way: Mode 2, Fast, lasts longer than 15 minutes (not sure why). The mat and the rod with the spring obviously aren't meant to be used together, that's user error.
My 10-week-old kitten was very sceptical at first, but after just one day it absolutely loved it. It even managed to turn the toy on by itself and switch to a different programme. But after less than a week, it’s already barely working. At first I thought it was the batteries, but even with new ones it only moves at a snail’s pace, no matter which programme you choose. Really a shame that it only worked for such a short time.
Stopped working after just 2 days, unfortunately. Nothing works anymore. The automatic shut-off stopped working after just one day. Such a shame. Not recommended.
My two tomcats found it interesting for about 10 minutes, then ignored it. That’s pretty much always the case when I order something with a motor 😄
I just find the mat under which the feather moves a bit too small. The part that spins back and forth often gets tangled up with this mat.
The quality is absolutely fine. The motor isn’t too loud either. Still, I wouldn’t buy it again.
