Cat Tower

“Why vinyl beds for an outside bed???”

Just like all of Kuranda products, it was a pain to put together, if you don't have the correct tools. Make sure you have a wrench and a screwdriver before you get going!! After that, it's not that bad. The cat tower I purchased was listed as 'outdoor use'; I'm not sure what the difference is between the indoor beds and outdoor beds because this uses the vinyl fabric that collects the rain, and not the nylon that lets it pass right through. This is not very convenient because, after every rainfall, I have to tip the tower over to dump off the puddles and then wipe them down. For a tower listed to be used outside, the nylon beds should be available. I should mention a positive; my cats do not care what the fabric is (as long as I keep it dry) and they love to sit on this bed all day. I'm already planning on getting another, if I can get nylon bedding!

Kuranda Response: Hi Becky, this is an excellent question! We actually only use the vinyl on cat towers because 1. it is non-absorbent so when it does get wet, even though it puddles, it can be wiped dry and used again immediately and 2. if we use a less durable material and you need to replace a fabric, you would have to take the entire cat tower apart to install the new material. So, the vinyl is used because it is the most durable and the easiest to clean. This is also why we suggest it for outdoor use; because the fabric won't get moldy or begin to rot if left out in the weather. I hope that clears some things up!

It's just perfect! all the tiers a full everyday with kitties!!! Easy to clean and attractive in the catery! Thanks!

“Kuranda in the Cat Yard”

I doubt that I will ever buy another carpeted tower for cats again. They are too hard to keep clean compared to these. I put beds on mine that tie to the posts so they don't get kicked or blown off and just take them off and put them in the washing machine. I clean the Kuranda with a spray cleaner and rag or hose it off and let it dry in the sun. I got this 6 level tower several years ago after looking high and low for something that could stay outside in our cat yard and not get damaged. This is it. It has survived several years of the desert sun and cold winters with snow and rain and still holds up. We don't even bring it inside in the winter. My only con and the reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is that I want them to make these look better. You can decorate them but the PVC pipes are just ugly. Maybe they could use the same material and shape them different or something. I'd like to see that get worked on. I noticed they have different color choices now and that's a good thing. I am ordering a smaller second one for inside to replace the old carpet one.

Kuranda Response: Hi Dawn, thank you so much for your design suggestion and it's one we certainly agree with! We've been working on some new design ideas for a while now, hopefully we'll figure out something soon! Just in case you wanted new fleece pads for your cat tower (although yours are very cute) we do make them with ties for the cat beds and towers: https://kuranda.com/dog-pads/deluxe-fleece-pad Thank you for such a great review and for such cute photos!

“Great Cat Tower for Outside”

I love this cat tower! I wanted one for outdoor use and this is perfect. It looks very nice on my patio and I can hose it down if I need to. Assembly was a little intimidating at first, but once I got started, it went together quite easily. I put it together by myself, but would recommend a second set of hands, if possible. Oh, and my cat loves it too!

I was a bit disappointed when I opened the box. This is NOT Kuranda's fault at all--totally my mistake for not paying closer attention to the description of the material used for the cat products. I have three other Kuranda pet beds, but those are dog beds and made from a wonderful mesh material. This tower will be outdoors in Florida and I think the mesh would have been much cooler and also would have dried more quickly after one of our afternoon showers. I'm sure Kuranda felt the heavy vinyl was more appropriate for cats. I'm going to keep it anyway. I still love Kuranda products.

Kuranda Response: Hi Barbara, I just wanted to let you know that the reason we use the heavy duty vinyl for cat towers is for durability. Since replacing a fabric requires you to take apart and then reassemble the cat tower, we wanted to use the material that would risk needing replacement the least. We appreciate the thought, though! Thanks for sticking with us!

“Cat tower”

We received the cat tower quickly and it was easy to put together. My cats seem to like it as they are on it at all levels. I have seen these cat towers at a shelter for cats and needed something that was weather resistant for my front porch so I thought I'd give them a try. Very glad I did.

Conclusion: Yes, I would recommend this product to a friend.
