Fast shipping, easy to put together. I assembled it by myself in less than 10 minutes. 7 or 8 pieces each have 3 tabs that snap together. The outer 2 tabs wiggle into place and then I used one hammer tap to get the middle tab into place. The carpet has Velcro all along the edges that stays in place well. The fish-shaped safety mechanism doesn’t seem very useful to me.
The wheel came with a wand toy and a laser toy that i didn’t expect!! The laser toy unfortunately wouldn’t turn on, but my cat loves the wand.
Getting him to use the wheel will take some time and effort. With the wand, he would stop as soon as he caught it and want to drag it away. Using my own laser toy was a lot more successful but he hasn’t used the wheel on his own yet. I’m being slow and careful not to introduce anything scary for him to associate with the wheel because it does make a little bit of noise when it rolls and I’m sure the movement is strange for him so I’m letting him take it at his own pace. I’m looking forward to when he uses it to get some of his kitten energy out!!
Overall great product, no complaints about quality or price. The included toys were a thoughtful addition. Maybe they could include a page of suggestions for acclimating your cat to the wheel?

From the beginning to now: This order was easy to place. I am glad that Coziwow lets us order from them directly and not have to pay extra to go through a "middle man". I checked and the "middle men" ARE higher priced. Upon prompt arrival of my order, I opened the box. As a Sr Buyer in a Manufacturing company with experience in Shipping/Receiving, I was VERY impressed with the consolidation and care taken in the packaging of all of the parts. I have ordered items from many companies in the past and a lot of them are sorely lacking in using space efficiently with proper packaging to ensure the quality of delivery receipts. Most of you know exactly what I mean. With that said, I read the assembly directions (loved the pictures) and proceeded to assemble the wheel. Instructions were pretty straight forward. I did have some difficulty in attaching all of the parts of the wheel to each other as they were a tight fit. However, that also assured me that the wheel would stay together when being used - which turned out to be true. I consider this a trade-off of sorts. The box also came with a laser pointer and a feather toy to entice the cats into engagement - thanks! This is the perfect size for my home. I have 5 full grown big cats and this size is perfect for them. With all of that said, I'm still trying to entice them onto it as the extra exercise would help as they are all strictly indoor cats. I cannot "blame" Coziwow for their lack of interest at this point. Cats take a long time to adjust to changes - just like me! :) But I'm not a quitter and I will continue to work with them and they will realize what a great addition to their lives that this product is!

Good size wheel. Stands at waist height and spins well. Was easy to assemble and its not too heavy to move around.

One of my cats loves this and the other is content to run around the apartment with the kitty crazies. I used the dangle toy to lure the brown cat into using it as he isn't quite as bright and couldn't figure it out on his own but he loves it now. He likes to run on it but also thinks it makes a great lounge chair.<br><br>This was easy to assemble and is very sturdy but it does take a bit of strength to clip the wheel pieces into place. I would highly recommend this model to smaller thinking about getting a cat wheel as it's relatively affordable compared to many of the others, easy to assemble and seems quite safe. It's also surprisingly compact for a big object but it can slide into unused suave much more easily than a cat tower for example.

It seems that obesity is not only an issue with humans but it is also an issue with indoor cats.<br><br>Unfortunately, obesity in cats can be just as serious as it is in humans.<br><br>I saw this cat treadmill and the first thing I did was chuckle a little. I had never heard of such a thing but it does make sense.<br><br>I ordered the treadmill and it arrived very well packaged. It comes with several pieces that snap together to make the wheel. It reminded me of putting together a train track for a model railroad. You then attach the artificial turf will Velcro.<br><br>Once together all you do is set the wheel on the base. There is a fish with a nut and bolt which does bolt into the small hole on the base. This is a lock to stop the wheel from spinning. There is no mention of this in the instructions. I suggest installing this before you put the wheel on the base so you can attach the bolt under the base.<br><br>The package also included a cat toy on a long stick as well as a laser pointer that shines both a red laser and a white light.<br><br>Once together this is very solid. It will accommodate a cat up to 70 pounds.<br><br>It is going to take some time to get the cat comfortable with the treadmill. I have found that they do like to just lay down on the treadmill and I have been able to get the cat to walk for a bit on the treadmill when using the laser pointer.<br><br>I am very happy with this solution for an obese cat. It's easy to assemble and works very well. It is also very quiet when it spins.<br><br>I have attached a video showing me spinning the wheel. Unfortunately, the cat would not cooperate when I was trying to take a video.

Very easy to assemble, exactly as pictured!!

Honestly everything about this product is great. The wheel spins really well and easily, I love the feature of the cat-shaped stoped, it was easy to assemble, I love the blue color, and more than anything my cat loves the texture of the fake grass. Can be used as a scratch pad. My cat is still getting used to the movement so no progress on that front but she also really likes the toy that came with it!
Thereza Lopez
Good quality.

I've been wanting to try one of these for a while and was so nervous about how loud it'd be. It's honestly not that loud at all. Our youngest kitten loves it the most but our other two older cats are starting to get curious for it. The toy that it comes with is a hit for all of them tho! Also, fhe lock is pretty nifty. A little nervous about them trying to hop on top of it but eh it'll be fine. The green part was a little difficult to get on properly but overall it was easy af to put together.
William Anderson
great value for the price. the wheel isnt loud when cat spinning.

This homegroove cat exercise wheel spins really smoothly but it is kind of bulky to keep unless you have ample living space. The installation was pretty straightforward and the inner part of the treadmill has a velcro carpet which provides great traction for my cat's paws. My dog was definitely scared to use this and my cat was quite hesitant at first, but I left some catnip on the carpet and then my cat started feeling more comfortable. It's still taking a while for her to get used to it, but I'm seeing improvement everyday.
Sue
My girlfriend and I assembled it in around half an hour, instructions were simple to understand. It looks wonderful. One of my cats adore it and the younger one is scared of it. Im happy I purchased this one.
J. Sullivan
We really like the Cat Wheel. My cat loves it, but had to be tricked into using it. Got the wheel, set it up (easy) and after about a few hours of him sniffing around it, enticed him onto it and got him running. And he ran and ran. It was fun to watch. He even slept all night long. He usually is up all night.
Oranyelit
It makes some sound but its perfect in terms of movement. It doesnt halt or get stuck like some other wheels do. I must admit, it took me about 90 minutes to construct this thing. The assembly is not very friendly for me.
Alanna Simpson
Good cat wheel. Not as silent as others but cats appear to enjoy it. Quite big so ensure you have the room. Looks sturdy so far. Spent some time to assemble it, not hard, just boring.
John Smith
I chose this one because my cat is on the small
nita1690
The wheel is of good quality and worth the money. Convincing your cat to like it is another story. It takes a minute but well worth your time to train your pet to run on it. I definitely recommend.
kim hagerman
If only I could make my cat like it! Its easy enough to assemble, though it takes a lot of time. and huge. you require room!
Ada
Very easy to assemble. I'm still trying to get the cat to use it--I've been told catnip spray can get the cat to use it, but so far he's not very interested. I had another larger cat wheel not too long ago that was difficult to assemble and took about two hours from start to finish; this one was much easier to assemble and took just over half an hour (I have seriously arthritic hands, so this is already amazing!). The noise is a bit loud but not annoying.
The quality is very good and the price is reasonable.
Manda
I love that this wheel is easy to assemble and use. It's durable and fully functional. It comes with all the parts needed. I like its design and implementation. It takes a while to train the cat to climb up and start playing. The instruction manual details how to attract cats to use the machine. Overall, I like it.
Acacia
This exercise wheel looks very sturdy, and although it's a little difficult to assemble, it's still doable. The noise is a bit loud. If my cat runs up there at night, it might disturb me. So far they don't seem interested in running on it, but I'll keep trying. The price is the most attractive thing.
Mercia
I have several cats but only one or two actually use this cat wheel exerciser. One of them can be coaxed with a laser light and then run around for a while. The other one liked it very much. It will run and run like the energetic cat, only it will keep singing. It will just naturally run over and be used from time to time. This is great for cats, but it will take a while for most cats to use it.
Petra W
I purchased this product so my cats can have some fun and exercise. It arrived very well boxed and assembling it was pretty self explanatory. It is made out of sturdy material and as you can see in my pics it is pretty good sized. Once set on its base it turns easily and smooth. I had to replace a part and the customer service provided by the seller is great. My cats enjoy it very much and I would purchase again.
Judi
Living In an apartment I don't have lots of room form my cats to play. This toy has opened a whole new world for them. They really seem to enjoy it and it is a lot of fun to watch them play on it. As of right now my cats go slow, but give it a month and I think they will zoom in it.
NG
I got this treadmill for my kittens. Setting up was easy but I had to push a little hard to connect the parts. The kittens tried but since they are so small they cannot run on it all the way. However, it is good so far and looking forward the kittens to enjoy it.
Kimberly Condino
I bought a similar product before, but it was broken so I have to buy a new one. This wheel is great - easier to assemble and move than wooden wheel. My cat loves it - he has been playing on the wheel all day! The wheel won't make too much noise, so when my cat runs on it, it won't disturb my rest. I like this product!
Tessa
Its sturdy, comfortable, and my cat loves it. The assembly was straightforward and it holds up well even with frequent use.
Jason
It's not difficult to assemble, but you may need some help if you have weak hands.Overall, it's sturdy and quick to put together. After the base is installed, you can use Velcro to attach it to the running wheel.The scroll wheel isn't completely flush, so it's noisier than we'd like, but we'll see how that goes.
Ethan Davis
relatively quiet to use
Arnold
It took me about 5-10 minutes to assemble it myself. This is exactly what I want. Very simple.
The only downside is that if your cat gets too crazy it might roll over on its side, but for the price and ease of installation, I'm very happy with it!
Sarah Davis
My babies love their toys.
Jessica Lee
It looks a little lighter than solid wood, just right for my cats or I might have returned it
Emily Johnson
Assembly was very easy and I was able to do it myself
lisa wolf
My cat is obsessed with her new treadmill. Its very well-made and provides a great way for her to burn off energy. Definitely worth the purchase.
Michael Johnson
It was pretty easy to put together, I didn't think was that hard, and my cat loves the wheels!

Robert Martin
no smell,Easier to put together than I expected
Amber
The treadmill is sturdy and my cat loves it. The only downside was the shipping took a bit longer than expected.
Vanessa
My cat enjoys it a lot. The only minor issue was that the assembly instructions could have been clearer.
samafh
Its sturdy, easy to set up, and my cat loves it. She spends a lot of time running and playing on it. Great for indoor exercise!
