Quick answer: MeowShelf Garrison (~$240) is a sofa-side scratcher table with 360° sisal posts + panel, Left/Right, ~28.3 in tall. CozeCats Side Table starts at $169.99 (Pair from $329.99) with three riser heights, replaceable Velcro mats at $43.86, and factory-direct pricing 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%.
Both sofa arms: a CozeCats Pair is $329.99 vs $758 for two Cat-e-Corners (2 × $379) — about 44% of the price, saving ~$428.
Math: 169.99 ÷ 379 = 0.449 → 45%; 329.99 ÷ 758 = 0.435 → 44%. Base single/pair, no riser, USD; Cat-e-Corner price from hilde-phil.com (Maple, no riser), checked Oct 27, 2026.

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.
Quick take
Both aim to sit beside the sofa and redirect scratching. Garrison leans into multi-surface sisal (4 posts + panel) at a fixed tall height. CozeCats focuses on flush arm protection, a clean furniture top, adjustable risers, and factory-direct pricing.
