★★★★☆
A great idea, especially if you don't have a window sill.
My cat, Bug, is 14-15 lbs. all by herself (so I felt that a suction cup good up to 15 lbs. x 4 would work just fine). I live in a basement, so my only real window is my door, and I know she misses having windows (previous apartments had big, sliding glass doors). However when I first installed it, the bottom suction cups gave way... and my cat DID get dumped! I heard it happen from the otehr room, came in and only saw the bed hanging off the door by the top suction cups (which stayed put) and the cat walking away with "dignity. HOWEVER! Later I realized this must be because my friend (who helped me install it because I'm currently disabled due to a work injury) tried to make the bed at a slight sloping down angle to the door (kind of to "cradle" and if she fell, he's fall into the door, not be dumped unceremoniously to the floor). *This* makes the cups slide. The bed NEEDS to be flat and level as that's how it presses the bottom cups against the surface to keep them from slipping. Once I fixed it, it wasn't a problem and it works great and is very solid! At any rate though, we did some tinkering and added two bathroom toilet seat screws that permanently attach the bottom cups to the PVC, something I think may be a good idea to add to future versions of this product. Overall, good product, my first worry was the suction cups flying off and a cat going sprawling (which gave me great giggles and was disapointed when I didn't see any reviews with such stories before I bought it, which is honestly one reason I wanted to try this product out) but when PROPERLY installed, it works great and the cat loves it! I know she missed her "TV" watching the great outdoors.
