Customer Reviews for VEVOR Cat Exercise Wheel 43.3" Large Cat Treadmill Wheel for Indoor Cats Black

Excellent wheel!! Was simple to put together just took a while due to the amount of parts. The instructions can look daunting but they are easy to understand. My cats were trying to play on it before it was even up. My adult cat is 5 kilos and it is a perfect fit. If you have a cat that is any bigger, get the larger size 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.

So I will start off by saying I love putting stuff together so while the instructions weren't explicit, if you have the room and sort the pieces prior to starting you will have an easier time. Next, I recommend not completely tightening the boards all the way until you are confident in your placement and spacing. Give yourself the necessary spacing for minor flexibility and adjustments. I purchased the largest wheel. Put it together by myself in less than two hours, I am 5'4 and about 140 for size reference. If you have a bad back get friend to help you stand the wheel up and flip it. As far as getting my three cats running on it, my two girls love it! No training needed, scratch the carpet and away they go! They run on it daily. However, my 20lb boy that this was purchased for prefers the human treadmill with mom. So while not a complete waste, my chonky boy is not using it but my little girls love it! They do scratch the carpet heavily, it is showing significant picks already. I will need to replace it but my three are heavy scratchers. I am looking at the adhesive carpet tiles as an option. The noise is a whirring sound almost like a dryer on spin, very minimal if they are going full Usian Bolt. You can lock the wheel during the night but you may get hateful looks in the morning. This was 100% worth the money spent! I hope this is helpful!

It was very easy to build! My cat doesn’t like it too much but she went on it when I put catnip under the carpet haha

My boy Rowdy loves this thing. Took him about 3 minutes to figure it out after I prompted him once with a feather. He *loves* running up and down the stairs so I figured this would be a fun thing for him to have for his 1 year old birthday present:) For reference he’s a seal sepia Bengal, about 12lbs. When he’s fully stretched out he can reach the kitchen counter. He’s incredibly active (eats 4x a day) & is constantly running / climbing / jumping all over the house. He loves to go for walks & ride in the car. This thing is so sturdy, it does make a little noise but it doesn’t wobble when he gets it up to top speeds. It’s the perfect size. Many of the others I found online were really small. It does take a minute to put together - a friend (who used to work at ikea) helped me put it together in about 30 minutes. We used a drill to put all the screws in & hand tightened with the included hand screw driver. I’m sure if I had tried to do this alone it would have taken longer.

This is definitely the best cat wheel, especially for the price. My cats love it. It’s pretty quiet, not too hard to assemble. I have pretty big/heavy cats and it has no problems with them!

Das Laufrad ist spitze. Die Montage ist etwas anstrengend, weil viele Einzelteile montiert werden müssen, das Ergebnis ist aber klasse! Einzig das Laufgeräusch empfinde ich als zu laut. Hier wäre es schöner, wenn man Leichtlauf-Kugellager verwenden würde. Aber ansonsten Top!

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.

I was sceptical on purchasing the wheel because it wasn't cheap and wasn't sure if my two cats would even use it, but Santa brought me a kitten for Christmas and she absolutely loved it once she figured it out. So fun to watch her. I also have a 12 yr old cat who just looked at it and wasn't interested at all. I think it's a great buy for the younger fur babies.

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.
