shipping didn't take long and the cage is really nice and the price was one of the best we could find. They did forget to include the cup holders and customer service took care of this issue very quickly. I am very happy with this purchase and would do it again!

My Sun Conure's Condo

I purchased this exact cage at the same time I purchased my lil 5 month old Sun Conure at a PetCo store. I purchased this extra large cage in hopes of one day getting another Sun Conure to add to our family and for Chili Pepper to have a companion. Chili Pepper has 2 swings, 1 large rope swing (oh he/she LOVES to swing!), 2 ladders, multiple perches and hanging toys. I even made a (fake fur) lambs wool hut for the lil sweetie. Chili goes EVERYWHERE inside and outside the cage and is the greatest entertainer. This cage is super sturdy! And it's very easy to clean. There is 2 pull out drawers (top and at the bottom) where I use puppy pads actually to catch all seed hulls and droppings. The front drop down door is Chili Pepper's favorite hang out. Then the large front door opens completely so that you can easily access all areas of the inside. We are convinced our Sun Conure is part bat because he/she loves hanging upside down on the inside roof metal cage slats. I would 100% recommend this cage for anyone who had either multiple conures or a single large parrot. NOTE: I refer to he/she because we do not know if our bird is a male or female. Sun Conures can ONLY be male or female determined either by surgery or by DNA testing - which I personally won't put my bird through either procedure and figure if Chili Pepper gets old enough to lay eggs then that question would be answered.

Huge brown box, hard to see in or out of.

Erected it looks like a bank safe with slats. A scary looking ugly brown box.. After I spent half a day assembling this monster, my African Grey took one look & fled from it. He shakes when I bring him near it & wont go closer than 3 ft. So, 60 lbs or not I take the bird jail back. I bought it flat, no demonstration model . Oh, and the perches are too short. Petco is fine. The cage? Nah.

I got this cage about a year ago for my Dusky Conure. I trashed the 2 included perches for natural ones; I did find that putting them straight front-to-back rather than horizontally made them fit, but I didn't use them regardless. It's an awesome cage, and even better is the price. It is not a dinky cheapy cage.
I love that there is so much room to decorate everything they way your bird prefers, and you aren't limited to just a few small toys. There's lots for him to do when I'm not home to keep him occupied.
Only downside is that it is not quite big enough to discourage my bird from carrying all of his food over from one side over to his water bowl on the other side and making dirty soup water 5 times a day. -.-

I recently lost my amazon of 34 years sadly. On a happier note, I got a new, great little guy that is quite the athlete. The old cage, and I mean old, was too small and just was not cutting it so an upgrade was in order. After reading many reviews and comparisons, this cage seemed like the greatest amount of real estate and features for the buck. I wasn't wrong. What a great cage. My little guy loves it. He was climbing on the back as I was putting on the sides!
Whoever is in charge of directions could take some cues from Ikea. Not impossible to figure out but just a couple lines if info here and there would sure make things go faster. All in all, fits together well and very sturdy. I did have a couple scrapes on the finish here and there and one of the trays was dented a little but bent back easily and it's the side toward the wall. Plan on buying other purches though. The ones supplied are a joke. Would maybe be OK along with others for a coclatiel...if they fit. Mine were cut the exact length as the inside of the cage and then the slots that go over the bars in from there. Neadless to say, not very sturdy. All in all though, a great cage for the money, came in two days and I even got $10 in Petco Rewards back!

First, I have owned through decades of bird keeping many different cages by many manufacturers. We purchased two of these cages from the local store and yes it was more money then online but I have to say, even at their NON sale price point this cage is a perfect bargain! Weldings are neat and tidy paint is well applied the cage is HUGE and the base with the 8 inch separation from the grill to the tray is just brilliant! Our two greys are loving them! Did I mention it has a toy holder for the playpen?
Assembly was about 30 min for each cage. Directions were clear and simple. Most of the cage is already assembled unlike others I have purchased.
I highly recommend this cage. You will not find anything close to this quality for $299 anywhere. I did not want to take the chance of having one shipped damaged so I bought locally from Petco and paid full price. I was not disappointed both were perfect.

So I've been researching for a while to get the best quality cage for the best price. I've read the reviews on petco and other sites that sell this particular cage and i went ahead and ordered it via Petco after much deliberation.
I got the cage delivered today and i have to say... WOW!!
Everything was bubble-wrapped and in prestene condition. All parts were there and aside from instructions that could use some help, I'm so glad i made this purchase. The picture on the website really does not do much justice to the size of this cage. The color is very nice and i like the fact that the perch on top of the cage can be removed and replaced with a play gym if needed.
For $219 this cage is a steal!!!

I got this cage for my African Grey and it's wonderful! Placement of the dishes give her a workout and encourage her to explore the whole cage.
Down side is the perches. Too short and too loose, my bird was able to knock these down herself with normal use. We've had to upgrade those already, plus the 3/4" dowel is too small for an adult Grey.
The cage itself has a deep cleanout tray and also the grate above the floor can be pulled out separately for very easy cleanup!

I recently rescued a Blue Front Amazon, and he was in a cage that was FAR too small for him though his previous owners promised it was marketed as a Amazon parrot cage. I knew it was highly inappropriate for him (and a cheap web auction cage at that) so I immediately searched for a better home.
I saw this cage on sale so I took the deal. I am VERY glad that I did. Beware using PALS points to get this... as when I did, it "confirmed" my order but never gave me an order number. After 2 hours (not lying) on the phone, I found out the order had declined due to PALS points not being compatible. I didn't receive an order number, or an e-mail stating the order didn't process. I just wondered why the money wasn't out of my account yet and that's what spurred me to call. Even after all that, it was worth it.
Cage Assembly
--------------------------------
This cage weighs about 93 pounds. It shipped SUPER prompt (3 days), I put it together in just under an hour, and the directions to assemble are slightly vague. Example: they label the 4 base pieces as A and B. They really should've labeled one of the pieces specifically because there's a SLIGHT difference in size between them.... this comes into play later on when you realize YOU INSTALLED THE LITTER PAN ENTRY ON THE WRONG SIDE. ARRRGH. At NO point in time did they mention this in the instructions. I just found out for myself later. However, the rolling wheels make it easy to rotate the cage and pull the pan out, so I didn't go back and change it. Another example of vague directions is it doesn't show you where all the screws go. You're just lead to assume that you need to screw certain parts together when you see extra screw holes.
Size and Overall Impression
--------------------------------
AMAZING. I seriously adore this cage. While I wish there was a grill over the top of the inside of the cage to hang toys on I am really impressed with the spaciousness. I also adore that the litter tray is so far below the inner grill, allowing excrement to drop very far from the inner cage space. This cage is perfect for an Amazon or African Grey (I wouldn't recommend for a Macaw, but it's not advertised as such anyways!). The bar spacing is appropriate for even smaller birds, like Parakeets, Cockatiels, and Conures... and MAN they'd have a TON of space to flitter about in! It is also incredibly sturdy and solid. Just awesome!!
Final Thoughts
--------------------------------
I highly recommend this cage. Even if it's not on sale. Please do NOT go to auction sites and try to buy a cheaper comparable cage because trust me, they're crud. You get what you pay for, and in this cage I got a lot more! Treat your birds to something nice!

I bought this cage for my GCC, he has lots of room to play with his toys. It is large enough that he is safe from the cats. They don't usually bother him, but he likes to tease them. I like that I can move it from one room to the other so he can be with the family almost all the time. I have an open main floor so there are no doorways to go through. I think if I did I would need to remove the seed catchers for it to fit.
My only issue is that the pins that hold the door on just started falling out, I am going to talk to customer service about this. I just ordered a second one for my budgies.

I have a mini macaw(severe) and a cockatiel who are best friends they needed a big cage with proper bar spacing for the tiel the birds both adjusted well to it quickly and they love it. it is big and the play top makes an extra fun area for them to play. Only thing that was a little annoying was I went to a petco store and they would not match the net price why pay more if you don't have to. I just ordered it on line it shipped pretty fast and it came in great condition. It was very easy to put together

Parrot Habitat

Ordering on line was simple, it arrived very quickly also. The cage was easy to put together. The color and design is beautiful. The cage has extra food dishes with lips that hold it in place. The seed catcher at the bottom is an added plus. The trays are easily removable for quick cleaning.
The habitat comes with a play area on the top which is a good idea but my guy prefers to climb all over the outside of the cage.
One draw back is the perches that are included. They may be good for small parrots but for medium to large parrots they just don't work out. My parrot had them down and chewed through within 2 days.

Emerson (my 9mo old Indian Ringneck Parakeet) absolutely ADORES this cage. She's loving all the extra space and it's an attractive cage, so I feel okay about it being in my living room. Great price, too! (I bought it when it was on sale for $219.)
Some of the sections of cage were bent a little, but they were quickly adjusted--likely just from bouncing around in the back of the delivery truck.
Thanks, Petco!

This cage is absolutely beautiful! My Dino who is an Umbrella cockatoo just loves his new home! It is indeed much more spacious than I could have ever imagined, and Dino especially likes his upper loft or the Penthouse as I call it!
The only thing I also have to gripe about is the fact that one part came a bit bent. Why is this cage not packaged any better during its shipment?
Other than that it is Dino's dream come true-and when my boy is happy, so am I!
By the way-the price is hard to beat! A real bargain!
Thank you, Petco!

This cage is very sturdy weighing in at around 65 pounds. I was very pleased with the quality and the look of it is definitely a plus. I am using it to house two cockatiels and they seem pleased with their upgraded cage size. The only complaint I have is that it arrived without 4 bolts for proper assembly.. I will have to go to the hardware store to complete the cage.

This cage is great, well built. Was very pleased when I bought the first one, the price could not be beat for the size. I liked it so much I bought a second one. We attached it to the first one I bought (with alittle tweeking) and created a 30 x 60 home for my sun conure. The 30x30 cage was big enough for her but I wanted her to have more room. With the great price of this cage I could afford to do it.
