Does it fall over easy if it isnt anchored to the ground? What do you use to anchor it indoors if it needs to be anchored?

The only time I use the anchors is outdoors and it's not so much for tipping over its to keep it in place. There are mulitiple times outdoors that I didnt anchor the bounce house down and all it does is move around not topple over. I also have used this a TON indoors. That was our main purpose for buying the bounce house. I just set it up in a corner ... It'll move around a bit depending on how many kids are playing and how big those kids are - but I've never once had it fall over. And I had 6 kids playing on it ranging from 2years old to 8.

I purchased this for my granddaughter's first birthday in September knowing she and her 5 yr old brother would be using it inside during the winter months. They absolutely love it. The way it is designed there is no need to anchor. The nice thing about this is you can blow it up or take down when needed.

I have not had any issue with this tipping over and I have a very wild 4 year old. I use this indoors only and don't secure it down. It might slide around a little bit but nothing big. We really enjoy this but if you have older kids 6,7,8 get a bigger one. This is perfect for my 4 year old and two other similar aged kids :) I hope that helps answer your questions.

No, it does not come with anything to anchor it to the ground. It's light weight and tips over if kids push the walls.

Mine has never toppled over. The base is wide and heavy so it doesn't move. When my cats were younger and jumped off of the top it would sometimes pop out. I was able to solve that with two small strips of velcro. Its a great cat tree. I have had it for years and it still looks brand new.

There is a safety strap that attaches to the wall and the top of the unit. It needs to be mounted into a wall stud with the correct hardware. If mounted correctly it will prevent the possibility of the unit falling forward.

No, it has no way to be anchored to the ground..... mine honestly didn't last long I would look around to try and get a better one!

I didn't have to reinforce mine. It's never fallen over. I have it in a corner with one of the clumsiest cats you've ever seen. Of course, she doesn't use the top-most perches at all. She likes the little enclosed house near the top the best. Really, I think you'd be fine if you just stuck a big heavy plant in the middle of the base to weight it down. I put a catbed there myself as an extra hidey hole.

I tried using it indoors with my 6 lb. miniature dachshund, and he could easily knock it over. However, it works fine outside, with the stakes anchoring it. Your dog, being much bigger and stronger, may need something more rigid.

It needs stakes...I think it could be easily knocked over if not held down somehow.

As for it falling down, put one velcro strip on the very top attach to the top of it and to the window. I did that with mine 6 months ago and it NEVER fell. If I wanted to, I can take it down since it's velcro. The velcro is only an inch or less so it's not noticeable.

Its very steady. I have had mine up in my yard for 3months. It has never fallen over! :D

We have not put it up but it does say that you need to either anchor it, or install a bottom for it because it doesn't have a bottom with it. And it feels pretty heavy in the box but they said it can catch air on a windy day as well if not anchored to the ground.

You definately want to anchor this to the ground. It comes with 4 long U shaped spikes and straps that secure it to the ground. If the child swings to hard it will come up on the pavement. We built ours on the concrete patio and I tried it for sturdiness before moving it onto the mulch of the playground, it definately slides and the small end (without the house) will rock back and forth. Even now when I swing next to my son (he's one, and in the baby swing and I'm about 115 pounds) it moves a little bit and it's anchored in really good. This wouldn't deter me from buying it again since it isn't made for bigger kids (or me...)

My wife said that she has not had a problem with it falling over. Do you have one, and does it tend to fall over?

No this is not made to resist being knocked over. you need to get something more secure from Petsmart that is made for cat and dog food.

It is heavy. But, ( keeping in mind I'm not a liscensed contractor) we just put it up normally and it seems perfectly sturdy. I'm not worried it will fall. There is a support chain that secures the weight.

It isn't secured by anything to the ground but the shape and heaviness of it makes it hard to move. I put my dog and cat in there and it never moves. Maybe put a couple of heavy toys or items in it if worried. Great playhouse! They use it all the time and even indoors.

It recommends attaching to the wall, and I think it even came with the hardware enclosed. It's a heavy piece and I wouldn't trust it not to topple over.
