Natural Paradise Scratching Barrel - Lily S

I really like it. I have 4 cats, each one has a set

The screws don’t fit… disappointing

I am so upset about this product:(.

Because of the unfinished wood, it looks a bit "cheap," as my husband says, but otherwise I think it's very nice and also sturdy. The cushions, however, really aren't very high quality, unfortunately. But my cats really like it.

For the low price, it does the job! Looks nice too. I have two big cats and it's stable, both when they're scratching and when they jump up and down. It comes without instructions but it's literally just 4 screws, you can put it together in 15 minutes.

Unfortunately, it's not very stable. The screws don't fit perfectly, so it wobbles a bit. The lying surface is rather small. It looks great, but that's about it. This is the first product from Zooplus that has disappointed me.

Easy to assemble, looks nice, works.

The cats have really loved the barrel! It's sturdy and stable, doesn't wobble. Unfortunately, the product's own cushions were too small, but we bought some round seat cushions that the cats have liked :)

Top design... sustainability a flop!!! ACTUALLY... my cats and I love this scratching barrel... over the past few years, we’re already on our third one in a row. What REALLY bothers me, though, is the fact that you normally only need to replace the scratching part, but it’s not available separately as a spare part. For me, that’s NOT SUSTAINABLE. Unfortunately, my enquiries about this have also gone unanswered... really disappointing.

I agree with other reviews here: the parts aren’t set up properly for assembly and, considering the price, that’s really not okay. Cat-wise though: full marks. He’s stopped scratching the sofa, sleeps on top and plays on the lower shelves, which I now use to store his toys—he goes and picks what he wants. The washable cushions are perfect, but they would have been better if they were the right size; they’re a bit small. Overall though, my rating is positive.

Thought I was buying a nice scratching post for a litter of kittens that were on the way. Once the kittens were big enough, I wanted to put it together. The holes didn’t line up, so I couldn’t assemble it. I had to buy new screws and drill it together myself. It’s a shame, because for this price you expect everything to be right. Unfortunately, I couldn’t return it anymore, otherwise I definitely would have.
