About SmartCat Pioneer Pet Ultimate Scratching Post
Overall Feedback:
94% positive
92% liked its modern design, but 8% thought it was too ugly
The scratching post's minimalist design and neutral colors keep it from sticking out.
If it was as pictured, I would have given it 5 stars for the design and price.
The top platform of the cat scratching post is slick, hard, and slippery, making it difficult for me to claw my way to the top.
93% praised for its durability
I have found that these cat-scratching-posts are worth the cost because they last a long time.
The cat scratching post is built rock solid and has survived multiple moves. It could probably be used for another year even now.
I believe the scratching material will last longer than sisal or cardboard.
Based on my experience with different types of cat-scratching-posts, I think this one will have a great lifespan.

91% found it easy to install
The base construction and attachment to the tall tower is well thought out and manufactured for ease of assembly.
The post has a wide two piece base that is easy to install and a pre-attached wooden top cap that a cat can sit on easily but not lie on.
The assembly process was easy with a screwdriver.
The base was easy to assemble with only two screws and two dowels.

93% appreciated the comfortable scratching surface, though 7% thought it was too rough
The scratching surface of this cat-scratching-post is made of a uniform, pressed sisal-like material. However, my cats will not touch it.
When I stand up to scratch, my back paws or claws are unable to get a foothold.
94% liked its compact size
I can reach up and stretch out on this, just the way cats like to do.
I can attest that the posts are sturdy enough to withstand the weight of my cats, even when they have their full weight against them.
I am pleased with the sturdiness of the scratching post. The bigger, almost 17 lbs. muscular cat can really stretch to the top sisal part.
The posts are very sturdy and do not tip or move even when the cats have their full weight against them.
