Date: September 18, 2009
"MY DAUGHTER RECENTLY PICKED A DWARF HAMSTER OUT 4 HER BIRTHDAY. THE CAGE SHE RECIVED 4 HER B-DAY WAS THE HART CAGE. IT DID NOT WORK OUT AT ALL.

ALTHOUGH IT WAS NOISY BUT WE JUST PUT A LITTLE COOKING OIL AROUND THE EDGES AND NOW WE CAN BARLEY HEAR IT. MY DAUGHTER LOVE THIS NEW CAGE !!!!AND SO DOES OREO!!!"

Miracle Cage
Date: September 3, 2009
"I bought this cage for my dwarf hamster Clover because I felt like she was getting bored and destructive in her other cage. The second I put her in this habitat, she made herself right at home! The size of the built in food dish is perfect for a dwarf hamster, along with the bottle (which is very easy to refill). Clover LOVES the "down under" feature which gives her room to run around. The miracle about this cage, however, is that Clover is a year old and has never shown any interest in using wheels I have provided her in the past. However, she can't stop running on this wheel! I was worried that the plastic would be too heavy for her to move, but it's actually the perfect weight for a dwarf hamster. I also had second thoughts about the tower addition because the tube looked rather wide and too long of a drop if she tried to get down from the tower. As it turns out, Clover has so much fun climbing up the tube and finding treats that I hide for her in the tower and then safely climbing down.
All in all, I think this is a fantastic purchase for someone who plans to house one or maybe two dwarf hamsters inside of it. I think it would be too small for a Syrian or Teddy Bear hamster, though."

Love This Product
Date: May 10, 2009
"We bought 2 Robo Hamsters and we love this home for our pets! They have plenty of room to play and we put them in the wheel while cleaning the cage- it is very convenient! Also, it is fun to watch them play and my three children ages 5, 7 & 12 can easily care for our pets in this cage! We love it!"

Gross!
Date: November 16, 2008
"I bought this cage for my dwarf hamster, and she loved the running wheel, but I didn't... At night the wheel squeeks very loudly and then something very gross happened. I noticed a puddle underneath the wheel and then I found out that the puddle was hamster urin!!! the wheel's tray overflowed and I had no idea what to do stop the leaking so i put a bag underneath for it to leak into instead of on my desk. The wheel isn't the only thing bad about this cage, it is also very hard to take my hamster out of, and the water dispenser is also very loud. It is very hard to sleep with the loud squeeking and clicking of the wheel and water dispenser. So If I were you than DO NOT buy this awful cage, unless if you want a desk full of hamster urin..."

Great purchase!
Date: June 23, 2008
"This is a great cage! Very easy to clean. We put our hamster in a ball to run around while we clean it. The running wheel is pretty quiet and we don't need an extra shelter because there is an area for her to huddle down and sleep. The water bottle is a little messy when you put it in each time, but that's no big deal. Best of all, she can't escape!!"

Good But Small!
Date: June 19, 2008
"I just bought this cage for my shorthaired hamster, Honey. He seems to like it but likes to chew at the stairs to the wheel. The wheels a little noisy but petroleum jelly or olive oil makes it less squeaky! I dont know if this cage will last him more than a month, its just a temporary cage. But my only complaints are the food bowl is build in and WAY to small and the water bottle drips. Other than that he loves it! Cant wait to see if he chews threw it!
Also if your gonna get this cage make sure you dont put in TO much bedding, its kind of a small cage!
Other than that my two hamsters Doogal And Honey live happily next to each other(in their own cages of course though!)"

For hamsters
Date: June 6, 2008
"Its great for hamsters, hamsters don't chew that much. Gerbils, well, they chews off everything around the left side of the sleeping thing. Its a fun home. Its good for a second addition to any cage, like it being the sleeping area. Best for hamsters, stick with an aquarium with the gerbils.."

Perfect For My Mice!
Date: May 3, 2008
"This cage is amazing. It's cute and completely easy to take apart to clean the cage. My mice love this cage, they can run around it, they love the wheel and it's escape proof! My first few cages for the mice were too easy for them to get out of because of the bars, they can get through such tiny little space. The only bad thing about this cage is the platform where the food goes is hard to clean because it is not flat, it has a slight design on it. I also did not like the water bottle it came with and ended up buying a bottle that hangs from the top that works great."

cute and clean
Date: February 11, 2008
"This is a really fun cage. It's great because you can always see your hamster and because the hamster can't sling anything (like its shavings or droppings) out of the cage. However, my hamster was able to gnaw through the plastic, but I think it was just my hamster."
