My sweetie little cat loves this scratcher it stands secure while she has a go under the balcony outside and it is the first thing she goes for when going brilliant value and by far the best on the market thank you Rachel maddox

Arrived last Monday pm, put it together looked fine. Next morning stitching on the top had unravelled leaving a big hole. I know it's a scratch post but had expected it to last more than 24hrs! Zooplus responded quickly to my email, issue has been resolved.

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

Still an amazing value for money but am disappointed with the change in updated version and feel it’s not as good for cats. There’s less scratching area, it’s only half sisel and now half material. If you have a tall cat they won’t be able to stretch up fully as they’ll touch material rather than sisel. Have a 3 legged cat who used to scratch lower part of old one but can’t on this one as it’s higher up.

I purchased one of these some time ago and using the re-order process purchased another. The second item is of a far lower quality to the original and has not lasted, already the rope is falling off

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!

This is our second one of these. Our other lasted 2 years with two cats. It’s a great scratch post, very sturdy and big. The cats love stretching out on it. Delivery was very fast and I was kept well informed of when it would be.

It’s a great furniture saver, my girls love it

I have had one of these for 8 years and only now need to replace it. My cats love it, would highly recommend it.

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.

Didn't last, don't waste your money .

I bought this post to replace another, which was too small for my long cat. The scratching post fits securely into the base and does not move when my cat uses it. I've not had the scratch post for long but the sisal has not frayed. The illustration shows a cat sitting on the top of the post. There is no way my cat would try to do this on such a narrow post.

I have bought a number of these posts over the years, and my most recent one, bought approx. last month is of the poorest quality yet. The post is not as wide, has less sisal on it ,and the sisal is thinner. The base is smaller and not as weighted, and the material the post is covered with is not of the same quality. It now balls. Shame. I find a lot of the products I re-purchase do not maintain the original standard of quality.

The photo doesnt do it justice! Its big thick massive one, my cats are very happy with it its lovely soft to touch at top and bottom and ruff for they're claws in the middle! Fab buy

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.
