CozeCats Side Table (from $169.99, Pair from $329.99) is purpose-built to sit flush against the sofa arm with replaceable sisal and riser heights — sold factory-direct from the same manufacturing source as premium reseller brands.
🏭 Factory-direct at about 45% of the Cat-e-Corner price. The CozeCats side table is made with the same category of factory-level build quality as Cat-e-Corner-class tables and sold direct from the manufacturer — about 45% of the typical Cat-e-Corner price (~$169.99 vs ~$379), so you keep about 55%.

Same factory, different price
Here is the part most comparison pages skip: CozeCats is the manufacturer selling factory-direct. The design and build quality of our side table match the premium sofa-arm scratcher tables sold by well-known reseller brands — because they share the same production source.
Those brands often excel at content and ads. The cost of that middleman layer shows up as premium markup (Cat-e-Corner–class pricing around $379+). Buying through CozeCats means you pay for the furniture itself, not intermediary pricing.
- Same factory origin — same design & build quality as premium middleman brands
- Factory-direct price — CozeCat Side Table from $169.99; Pair from $329.99 (both arms)
- Lower ongoing cost — spare sisal mats $43.86 · ships from Dallas · 30-day returns
We keep this comparison factual: check each product page for the latest listed specs. Our claim is about shared manufacturing origin and factory-direct pricing, so you can skip middleman markup when the product class is the same.
