Some appreciate the simple design and the fact that it blends in nicely with decor. That said, opinions are mixed on value, entertainment value, size, stability, and messiness.

Saved my furniture! Cat loves it! My first one lasted for four months!
EDIT: I just bought my second PetFusion 3-Sided Scratching Post to replace the first one. The first one lasted me four months with one cat using it every day, multiple times a day. He loves that thing. It still has a little bit of life left but he’s starting to take interest in my couch again so it’s time for a replacement. He doesn’t ever claw my furniture when he’s got a nice spot on his triangle.Short review: Love it, definitely recommend it and will definitely be buying another in the distant future when my cat scratches this one all up.Detailed review: I’d been having problems with my cat clawing on my furniture and carpets and wasn’t sure how to solve the problem. He had a sisal and a fabric scratcher but did not seem to want to use either of those and preferred everything I didn’t want him to scratch on. I got him this as his Christmas present and frankly, I don’t think I could be more pleased. He immediately stopped scratching my furniture all-together, and he uses it every day. I had a few concerns when I first purchased and this is how they turned out:1. They offer two sizes. Is the regular going to be tall enough for my on-the-large-side domestic? I trusted the reviews and went with the regular size and it was a good decision. Great height for my cat to stretch his back the way he likes and really get a deep, spirit-rejuvenating scratch. At least that’s the way he sees it. If you have a very large breed, like Maine Coons, who like to stretch when they scratch I think I would recommend opting for the Large.2. The cardboard isn’t replaceable and I have used plenty of $9 cardboard insert scratchers, so I was concerned about longevity. Granted, I have only had this for a week and a half, however I’m confident about its lifespan. The cardboard is visibly higher quality than the standard pet store stuff. You’ve got six different places for your cat to scratch (the inside counts! my cat does use the inside, esp when he’s playing) all you have to do is rotate once your cat has ripped up one side. I have also noticed that my guy only scratches heavily on the top of the outside so I can just flip the same-side upside down and get more use out of it. The design of this scratcher works really well.3. Worth the money? This one’s easy – yes.It’s not heavy at all, very easy to lift and move around but since it’s light, if you have wood floors it may slide a little when your cat uses it but they sent some rubber floor stoppers that just stick on whatever side is currently the bottom and they work great. They also included a small bag of catnip, I assume to attract your cat to the scratcher if they’re feeling shy but it was just a bonus holiday present for my kitty because he scratched on his triangle the moment I put it down.The only complaint I really have is that my scratching post arrived with the cardboard damaged on one side, pushed in like it had been dropped on something or vice versa. Makes a good chunk of that side unscratchable so I lost some value there.

Worth the money
We had one of theee triangle scratchers for our cats but it finally was âused upâ. When I went to order another I saw that I could get something similar for less money. Donât do it! The cardboard on this was is tighter and makes less mess and lasts longer. It seems to me more satisfying for my cats as well. Iâll stay loyal.

My cats like it; I wish the cardboard grain direction was better thought out
I like this scratcher; not only is it visually pleasing, but as many reviewers have noted, it has greatly reduced my cats’ urges to shred my linen recliner. I have purchased many scratchers and I have found for my two cats that rope/hemp/straw scratchers are absolutely worthless. They won’t go near them. I purchased some carpet ones as well, but they didn’t seem to like them either (although they enjoy pulling at my carpet). I finally purchased some horizontal cardboard ones, and that helped reduce their urge to pull at my carpet, but they continued to pull at my recliner. I knew it was because it satisfied their vertical stretching/scratching urges, so I tried to make a vertical scratcher from my cardboard rectangles, but the cats easily pulled them down. I finally found this one. Although it is a little expensive (and a little late as my recliner is pretty well destroyed), it is saving me money in that the cats have nearly completely stopped using the recliner and instead use this triangle for their scratching needs.I did want to note a few things: first, my cats wont go near the inside of the triangle, so this part is useless to me. I’m sure that’s not the case for other reviewers, and this is a minor thing, I just wanted to note it. Second, an annoying, but unavoidable side effect of getting much use is that this sheds cardboard pieces like crazy, and the cats drag them all over the living room. Again, a minor, unavoidable effect; harmless and nothing the vacuum can’t handle.And third, and the reason why I took a star away, is because the way this triangle is made, you can indeed flip it so that your cats have fresh areas to shred (mine pretty much only shred the top half of the triangle so you can flip it and use the other end), but the direction of the cardboard on some of the sides is less “satisfying?” for my cats. When the cardboard grain is facing upward, they love shredding it, but when the triangle is flipped and the grain is pointing downward, they find it far less useful. I assume because instead of their nails catching on the grain, they kind of slide down. I don’t know if that makes any sense, and maybe this is just an issue for my cats, but my cats pretty much only got good use out of two areas, when if flipped as much as possible, I should get a total of 6 scratching areas. My cat’s haven’t gone back to the recliner, but I have seen them going back to the horizontal cardboard one. I’m afraid that if I don’t get a new vertical scratcher soon, they will go back to the bad habit of using my linen recliner. As I said, the chair is already in pretty bad shape, but I had plans to get a new one once I figured out a way to get them to stop shredding it, so I don’t want them to start back up.All in all, I’d recommend this; the cats like it, it saves furniture and it’s modern design makes me feel like less of a crazy cat lady.

This is a second purchase of this particular model. The previous one had been well used, so a new one was in order. Being a triangle you can turn it over once it starts to wear and the kittens have always enjoyed playing and scratching in the central hole. Very sturdy so no chance of my large cats pulling it over. Good product and I would recommend.

Vi har köpt 4 Petfusion kattprodukter. PetFusion 3-sidig vertikal klösstolpe för katter, PetFusion Cat Scratcher FLIP LOUNGE och en PetFusion loungesäng. Våra katter använder dem ofta. Den triangulära klösmattan vänder sig inte ens när den klöses kraftigt. De är alla robusta och de ser bra ut. De har alla varit av högsta kvalitet, vi har haft dem i flera år och de verkar som om de kommer att hålla i flera år till. Rekommenderas starkt.

Endlich ein stylischer Kratzbaum.Meine Katzen lieben den Kratzbaum.Klar, nach einer gewissen Zeit “fusselt” er etwas, wie bei allen Pappkratzspielzeugen. lDa bei uns sowieso fast täglich der Sauger läuft, stört es nicht. Bei uns hält er 1 bis 2 Jahre.

El etólogo gatuno nos dijo que era mejor que los rascadores fueran verticales (tenÃamos un felpudo que usaba nuestro gato con gusto) asà que decidimos comprar éste pensando que, al ser de cartón, quizá se gastarÃa pronto (en caso de que no terminara de convencer a nuestra mascota) y al tener 3 caras, podrÃamos usarlo más tiempo pese a ser de cartón.A mi gato le encanta, ya casi no usa el otro (alguna vez pero muy de vez en cuando) y, sorpresa para nosotros, está durando un montón. El único inconveniente es que cuando se rasca, siempre tengo que barrer trocitos pequeños de cartón pero, teniendo mascotas, ya se sabe que toca limpiar más jajaja.Además, lo tenemos cerquita de una ventana y le encanta subirse para cotillear un poco.
