It's good, the only problem is that it comes off easily when the cats scratch it 🥺.

I don't know about everyone else, but we chose a beige color and hung it on a hook! The cat clings with its claws and can't get off, it has stopped sharpening its claws on it completely! I will be returning the jute rope again!
-
The adhesion is subtle.
Our cat didn't use this carpet to scratch its claws.
It's a bit disappointing, but the part of the sofa that was torn by the nail file is hidden, so I rated it as "average." -
The product arrived crumpled (into a square shape), I'm trying to straighten it out (rolled it into a tube).
-
It comes off very quickly; the cat got caught once and it came off right away! The material is good but it doesn't stick well.
-
Cool item! The cat will definitely like it! Thank you! It will be a place to scratch its claws and it looks nice! I'll take another one.
-
My cats love it
-
Great, I will order again.
-
The adhesive cat scratching post has arrived in good condition, as described. I have already ordered several and they are all great for placing on the sides of sofas or on the wall. I recommend it.
-
Honestly, it's ridiculous, a square of thin, low-quality carpet that's self-adhesive, I could have done it myself. It's not worth more than one euro, and I'm being kind...
-
Good quality, strong adhesive holds well. Cats love to scratch, but the material doesn't wear out much.
I recommend it. -
The color is more blue than gray. It adheres well.
-
It is as described, a fabric with a rough texture that is very attractive to cats, with a sticky part on the back to adhere to the surface you want to cover. The only problems I see are that, first of all, removing the plastic covering the sticky part is very difficult since it is a very thin layer of laminated paper, and in addition, the product is not a permanent solution; it has to be replaced when the fabric part comes off the sticky part, which in my case happened four months after purchase. But considering everything else, it's a decent product.
-
Very sturdy and easy to clean. My cat liked it right away and enjoys relaxing on it. The craftsmanship is impeccable – I definitely recommend it!
-
The glue doesn't even last a day; it might be the surface, but in my case it hasn't been of any use to me.
-
I thought it would be bigger... but that's my mistake for not checking the size of the mat. In principle, it's not bad for the price.
-
The kittens love it 😀
-
DO NOT BUY IT. It's not worth it, the durability of the glue is simply bad, it's not worth the price.
-
The color is close enough to the sofa's color
Works well with the cats, they scratch this mat instead of the sofa.
The second time i got it, i recommend -
The fabric is not as thick as I expected, it's not 0.5cm as I ordered before, and the color is a bit different too. It didn't quite meet my expectations, but it's not bad.
-
It looks good, however the color is not the one advertised; I ordered Khaki and they sent a color that's almost pink. I do not recommend it.
-
Easy installation and good material, the cat liked it so much that it already started scratching it.
-
It works and looks as published. Although smaller than i thought it would be. Sticks well even to the couch.
-
Good 👍, but I don't know if the sides will turn out well... it gives the impression that it's loose.
-
It seems to work, the only thing I didn't like very much is that the protective film on the adhesive is very thin and if you remove it, it breaks, which makes it difficult to remove it completely. It's still being evaluated to see if it's useful; if it is, I'll order more.
-
Perfect, it sticks very well and if you make a mistake you can peel it off and re-stick it. We just need to see how long it lasts.
-
Excellent! Sticks really well to the sofa.
-
Great, but slightly difficult to remove the sticker protection.
-
Perfect and it grips the sofa really well.
almost the same color. but great, my cats don't touch it -
Great to protect furniture will cover already damaged areas
-
It looks great on the sofa and it also helps prevent the kittens from messing it up; I'm going to buy more.
-
I hope it works out :-) The mat is self-adhesive, you just need to remove the very thin, transparent film :-)
-
A very good mat! The cat is absolutely delighted 😺 — sharpens its claws with pleasure.
And the owners are even happier because all the furniture is now safe: the sofa upholstery is no longer damaged.
The mat sticks well, holds firmly, and performs its function perfectly.
A simple and truly useful solution for a home with a cat 🙂
Definitely recommend! -
The mat is great, very high quality, I will buy a few more.
-
It hasn't been stuck to the wall yet, but I like it. 😻
-
The cat no longer puts its paws on the boxes...
Update: It's getting better now. -
It's easy to cut and easy to apply. The only flaw I might mention is that at first it sticks strongly but then it starts peeling off and you have to stick it again, but otherwise, it works very well.
-
I received the product, everything is fine, it sticks firmly on the wall!
-
Great for what they cost, sticks very well.
-
NOT self-adhesive!!! Thin and small. Not worth the money.
-
Excellent, I loved it, easy to install, I will wait to see how long it lasts and if the cats continue scratching the furniture.
-
It's very good and easy to place.
-
Everything correct, good quality in the product.
-
They do not stick correctly to the surface, they are meant to be thrown away. They are useless.
-
perfect, good adhesive
-
Good texture and material quality. Not like the adhesive that comes loose on curved furniture... unless it's not made for that...
-
The size and color match what is stated on the product page.
The backside is adhesive, to stick it you need to remove the aluminum film. -
Very adherent coating and quite thick. The only downside is the film that protects the adhesive, which is a nightmare to remove. We'll see how it ages, but for the price it's good.
-
The fabric is fine but the adhesive doesn't work. You can barely peel off the adhesive strip because it's so thin that it breaks, I don't know how to remove all the paper and then it only sticks in some areas. Very bad.
-
Same as the photo, good product.
