Mau - Modern Cat Tree Tower, Real Branch Wood Condo for Large Cats

This is absolutely the best cat treehouse I have purchased. It is so classy looking. They even put their label. That’s engraved on gold at the bottom. My cat loves it. It’s the perfect height not too big not too small. Most importantly its base is very sturdy heavy so when the cat jumps from one basket to another, it doesn’t move or wobble I love the fact that it’s MODERN very elegant looking.

My baby is 11 and a little chunky so I needed something that could hold her but also let her get up higher how she likes. She immediately took to the tree and even likes the little cave. I don’t feel like it will fall over when she jumps on it. Didn’t take long to put together and it feels very solid. It also looks great in my living room.

I had to get a new cat tree due to adopting a 2 month old kitten and my old cat tree had 1 small bed that my older cat just grew out of. They both need to be able to have their own beds. This new one seems stable enough and durable the fur babies use the scratching posts daily. My kitten sleeps in the baskets all the time and my one year-old prefers to stay in the cat cave all the time. They both love it so it’s a win-win. I’m getting another one from this brand for my bedroom maybe a different style, but it’ll definitely be this brand it goes best with modern decor.

A bit on the pricey side, but it's beautiful, sturdy, and the cats really enjoy it (tip: I saved our Amazon points so I ended up paying $2 and change)! We have so many cat trees and this one is the best because it's not an eyesore and actually fits with our decor better. I love that both baskets are strong and do not wobble so that means the cats will actually use them. The pads are super nice and plush and the legit branches are unique, fun, and beautiful to look at. The company knows that the best way to get cats to use the tree right away is to sprinkle it with catnip so a small packet of catnip was included and I love that detail. It was packaged well, super easy to assemble by myself; top to bottom, this is the best cat tree we've ever bought --hopefully it will last for a long time. The only slight ding is that the baskets are a little too close together so the lower basket is partially under the higher basket --I also couldn't get the dangle toys to be in the front. Despite rotating the two branches that the baskets sit atop, the lower basket is always a little under the taller basket. Not the end of the world, but something I wish were adjustable (same for the dangle toys, they're in the back and not able to adjust or change locations so they likely won't get much use). Would be nice if there were multiple rings under the basket and the toys were attached by rings that could detach so you could move them to better locations after assembly.

I love what this looks like - instead of the boxy usual cat tree. However my cats do not use it. This is sad. The problem, I figured out, is that the shape of baskets does not allow a cat below to figure out if they can safely land on top. They can't see what they are jumping into/onto. Maybe I just have two unadventurous cats (they are young) but I have to physically put them inside the cuddly baskets, and then they stay. However that is not the point of the tree. I hope other people with more brave felines will have success because it is a beauty of a design!

Okay, it's a few bucks more than I wanted to spend but the cats love these things so much that it was worth it. The cats walked by them for the first two weeks. They wouldn't' even look. Next thing I know I can't get them out. They LOVE this thing. It's the first place I look when I'm doing a head count. The bowls have that perfect shape cats like, where their backs are always hugged. They can't stretch out long in them, but they can sit up or in the meatloaf position. The bowl basket things are well made. The whole thing is solid, actually. The two posts are solid wood branches and the base is solid. Funny thing - the cats have never gone into the cubby hole underneath, so i use it for storage. It comes with these two big furry, fluffy, soft, long haired pillows that go in the bowl, but mine have some nice towels on top of them because the cats are not sure about the hairy pillows. They won't even bat at them to see if they're alive. They work great underneath, though. It's good looking furniture, too. I can picture it in any kind of house - trailer, mansion, I honestly think they won't clash anywhere. My opinion. Easy to assemble, easy to move if you have to. But solid. Sometimes two cats will share a single bowl. I like how one bowl is higher than the other for the alpha to claim, but overlap slightly and take up less horizontal space

This is our 2nd mau lifestyle cento cat tree. We have 2 cats that LOVE the first one, but it became a “king of the mountain” thing with them. We decided it is time to get a 2nd one. These cat trees are well made, with replacement parts available if needed. Yes, I highly recommend! Worth the $$$ as it is well made.

The final product is beautiful and my cat absolutely loves it. It's stable and she loves relaxing in the little baskets. I think she feels more secure in them than the regular platforms of cat trees. But I have to deduct stars for the incredibly frustrating assembly instructions. The main parts list and diagram completely omit the large "D40mm" washers that need to go behind the regular washers (part H). Instead of including this crucial step in the main manual, the manufacturer just put a sticker on the bag containing the regular washers but there's no reference to the D40mm washers in the list of parts so it's easy to miss the different washers it's referring to. Because I followed the main booklet and parts list, I missed the sticker's reference until I had already assembled the bottom section. I had to take the whole bottom apart to re-screw it properly which was frustrating. Worse, because I initially assembled it without the D40 washer, one of the screws sunk deeply into the particle board (see photo) and I couldn't get the screw or washer out at all. It was for the small cat house at the bottom, so it's not structurally disastrous, but it's incredibly annoying. I had a similar issue with confusing washer instructions on a different cat tree from this same brand. The materials are nice and the design is great, but the manufacturer really needs to update their printed manuals and materials list instead of relying on bag stickers for critical structural steps. For a piece of cat furniture at this price point, the directions and list of parts need to be complete and clear.
