1 paw up
We got this toy because I am always a very hyper kitty in the morning at 5 am and the parents thought it would help them sleep if they can turn it on and it will entertain me. However, I do not like it much... It was about $20 at Target.
Pros:
The toy is actually quite quiet for what would be expected for this price. The feather is quite nice. The various motion settings are also very good.
Cons: the feather hangs so low that if a cat is sitting by the thing it is just hitting her in the head! This is sort of annoying. It is not a "pounceable" height, even for an average size kitten, because it is lower to the ground than we like. It also falls over a lot anytime we try to play with it. We like it better if it is on something tall, like a chair, but then it also falls over.
Possibilities... maybe hooking a lazer pointer to this thing would be a good idea, because this would be some erratic visual entertainment, without any problems of the thing being knocked over.

1 lazy paw half-way up!
We got this toy when Figaro was still a kitten, because we really like our homemade peek a prize and this one also has a ball that is inside of something. And it has that cute fishie at the top. But we never play with this toy very much. Sometimes we play with it, but it has to have a lot of catnip in it for it to be a whole lot of fun. It also makes a little bit of a ruckus so it cannot stay in the bedroom at night or if we play with it we will wake someone up.
It is a very cute toy though.

One Paw Up - Its not the worst, but its not the best either!
I liked playing with this more when I was a small kitten because it was a good large size for me to swat. Now I am just not so interesting in it. However, if you buyed this and your kitty doesn't really like it, put catnips on it! We grows our own catnips in a little pot, and Mamaw rubs one leaf of catnip on it - it is very fun then! I love to play with it as does Figaro. However the catnip wears off very quickly and then we get bored of it. It is also fun to put it inside of things like in our kitty tent. We got this at Petsmart for $5.
