Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

So at first I couldn't get this cat haven tree house tower to be stable. When I put it together it was completely wobbly as others had posted in their reviews. I tried loading the base with something heavy as one reviewer had suggested to no avail. I was frustrated beyond belief. I had my husband take a look at it and within 30 minutes he figured it out. Here is the missing piece of information no one has seemed to write into their review. The top piece platform that goes on last, the hole that you place the rod into actually has a screw thread in it. So in order to secure the whole tree as stable and not wobbly, without adding extra parts from the hardware store, you have to turn the top piece of platform to screw in the entire tree into place. You're virtually screwing the piece of platform on and as you twist it locks the other pieces and the center pole into place. Keep turning until it's all tight and locked into place. You won't need extra parts I promise. Now that it's assembled completely and stable, my cats LOVE it!!! I have 2 kitties and one of them is 20 lbs. He likes to jump on the top platform and survey his kingdom, and peek out from between the branches. Definitely get this for your cats! It's a great buy, comparable in price to other cat trees but it actually resembles a tree which makes it more appealing to both cat and owner.
