Customer Reviews for Cat Exercise Wheel Large Cat Treadmill Wheel for Indoor Cats 29.5 inch

It is great quality, easy to put together, small enough to sit a smaller spaces. Keep placing your fur baby on it so they know it is theirs. Slowly spin to get them used to the movement. Use catnip spray and treats for use in the beginning whenever they use the wheel.

I bought the 52 in. Like everyone is saying, directions aren't very clear but I found an assembly video to follow, still wasn't the best but I managed. Got it built fairly quickly and came with extra pieces of all the hardware. Had the gloves, screwdriver and a lil sanding pad, but didn't have the feather toy, which is ok cause I don't need it (just a warning incase you do want it). Sadly the carpet doesn't fit as well as expected, even after adjusting it a few times the ends still over lap a little bit. It rotates easily and is fairly quite but can still be heard when the house is quiet and I'm in the other room down the hall. Male will play on it for the most part with a laser, but female isn't too fond of it, but it's only day one, hopefully they warm up to it and will use it on their own.

I was really worried about buying this cat wheel. I even tried to cancel the order, but couldn't because it had already been shipped. Alright, I said, I'll try it. It got here, my partner put it together, and I am actually VERY impressed with this cat wheel. It is as quiet as they advertise, they send an actual, magnetic tipped screw driver and all required screws to put it together, and the instructions are easy to follow. While the written instructions seem poorly translated, the visual instructions are very clear and all my partner and I needed to assemble this. We aren't very experienced with assembly, and we were still able to assemble it perfectly. I have to return this cat wheel, but it isn't any fault of the cat wheel itself, it's because it's too small. I bought the smallest available thinking- 'I have two small domestic short hairs, surely this will be fine.' Well, I should have looked at the listed dimensions and looked up how big a cat wheel should be for how big your cat is. This cat wheel would be really good if you want a cat wheel for kittens under one year as they grow, or if you have a particularly small cat. It's going to be a bit of a pain to disassemble all of it, but hey, that's what happens when you don't double check the product dimensions and do your due research. The next size up seems perfect, and extremely price friendly, which I will be buying immediately after returning my current one.

So I ordered this for my ferrets. The instructions were terrible but luckily I can go off of photos. Only complaint is the wheel is a little tight to turn. It’s a smaller version so it’s perfect for my ferrets if I can get them to use it.

A most wonderful purchase. This wheel is huge. Delivery time was accceptable. Shipped from Calif. to Fla. in a week, UPS. Tracking was sparse. Box was smaller than expected, parts packed inside very clever. Directions were what we are used to with items from China, text funny, images tiny but very helpful. The item: Amazing quality! Finish beautiful. Precise craftmanship of pieces. 3 hours assembly. Sturdy. Very quiet. Handsome addition to our living room. The cat watched assembly, sniffed it when complete, and stepped on confidently. By the next morning, our twelve pound Ragdoll cat had run on it for short bursts. Overall, we are thrilled with this very large, very fine looking, very quiet cat exercise wheel.

One of my cats who is 16lbs loves this wheel. He'll hop on and walk to show off. The wheel was pretty easy to assemble, just make sure to read the directions first before assembling, so you have the correct direction on which way screws go to "look better." The wheel isn't too loud and is quite stable. Definitely recommend :)

Decently easy to assemble. Space saver cats love it just as a new hangout, they're figuring it out. Great but decent price.

The extra large wheel has exceeded all expectations. The quality of the materials is way better than I expected, the wooden parts are a real nicely finished plywood and the rollers seem to be high quality. The precision of the parts made it extremely easy to build (it took me about three hours though, two people may make it easier and quicker). The supplied screwdriver is a little undersized, so I used a cordless screwdriver for initial build, with a very low torque setting, and hand tightened with the supplied screwdriver to finish. Do NOT use an electric screwdriver without torque control to tighten as overdoing it could prove detrimental. The Velcro tape and carpet track were easy to apply. Most importantly my two kittens, 8 months and 9 months old, have taken to it instantly, one was using it within two minutes of being built. Works perfectly for only 7 lb/8 lb weight cats, walking and running. Antics when they both get on and try to go different directions! Some noise in operation, but not as much as I anticipated, so the detail in the noise reduction works. I will recheck the screws after a week or two of use, but I see this product lasting a long time. My one small complaint is that the instructions were a little strange to understand in places, but following the pictures was okay. Plenty of spare screws are supplied in case your cat decides to help with the build (I did recover the ones they ran off with). I think this is way better than many other similar (and smaller) wheels costing a lot more, and I would definitely recommend it.

Easy assemble, Smooth, has small gaps, and is sturdy. Comes with a screwdriver that isn't too bad. Stop lock is secure. The wheel started rubbing against the base a little even after screw tightening, so I just turned the wheel around. The only negative is that it would be better if the screw holes were countersunk.

I was worried my cats would not use it. I set it up and let them sniff it out before trying to get them to use it. I used the toy it came with and a laser pointer to get them started but there are videos out there that offer different approaches. So glad I took the chance and spent the money.
