Excellent, worth the money, and they love it
Date: September 21, 2009
"I had a 4.5 size wheel for my two robo dwarf hamsters and it was a little noizy on the bottom of the tank's glass but other wise it was really quiet. But it was kinda small for both of them anyway so I got the 6.5 size and it is very quiet and they love it. The stand just made a little noize on the bottom glass but I found that if you put it on top of the bedding it is always very quiet. I had both of the wheels in the tank for a while but now I just have the big one in there and it works great it is in my bedroom too and it is super quiet and it never wakes me up at night."

The Best!
Date: September 9, 2009
"This is by far the best exercise wheel on the market for small animals. The silent spinner is just that, SILENT!
I have 4 hamsters and I have the silent spinner in the small and the medium sizes and MY HAMSTERS ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM!!!!!
I have heard of other people complaining that the silent spinners don't last or they break easy, but I have yet to have any problems out of mine. In fact I liked them so much after I bought the first that I bought one for each of my hamsters!!!!
The silent spinner is easy to clean, it's sturdy and I would recommend this to anyone wanting a safe and silent exercise wheel for a small animal!"

Great Wheel
Date: June 13, 2009
"Great for small animals and easy to clean (just rinse and wipe with a paper towel). I have a wire cage and this snaps right on to the bars. Before, i had a metal wheel which made a terribly annoying noise. This is perfectly silent."

"We had had like tons of sleepless nights because of our hamsters wheel. Well we ended up getting this like 2 months ago and we have slept perfectly ever since. The best thing to ever happen to us was to get this wheel."

Wow!!!!!
Date: April 21, 2009
"This is awesome! At first when I bought it, it made some rattling noise. So when you buy this, bring it to your sink, put 1 tsp of vinager in the wheel, and rinse it COMPLETELY. Then dry and it doesn't make a single peep! You won't be able to tell the difference between your hamster sleeping and running on his wheel! This is amazing -- a MUST have!
Also -- it has no open bars so I know my ham is safe at all times. = )"

Should be called Super Silent Spinner
Date: February 16, 2009
"I bought this wheel from Petco because the wheel that came with my hamster's cage was super squeaky and noisy. I bought a small blue one for my dwarf hamster Bitsy and put it in her cage. She started running in it but you could barely tell she was because it was so quiet! I am so glad I bought this wheel. Now Bitsy(my dwarf hamster) can have fun in her wheel and it will be quiet!"

Ehhhh...
Date: January 23, 2009
"Well, it does spin quietly, but if you have it connected to a cage, expect rattling. The plus side is that the rattling is less than other wheels. They need to make an 8 inch wheel because the 6.5 is close, but not quite roomy enough for my gerbils. I'd also like to see a longer wheel as well; my boys like to run together sometimes, and it doesn't work on this wheel.
Honestly, it's the best wheel out there compared to alternatives, but the price is absolutely ridiculous for the product.

Quiet
Date: January 9, 2009
"I love this wheel. It is much quieter than other wheels. I bought a 4.5'' wheel, but it was too small for my dwarf hamster. I had to switch it for a 6.5''."

Good
Date: December 24, 2008
"I bought the silent spinner wheel for my teddy bear hamster, Lulu. It is completely silent my friend was so surprised she got it, too. The only thing is, if it scrapes againsted the paper shreddings or fluff, it makes noise. Or if your hamster poops on it and runs on it, it makes a lot of noise. But it's very good unlike other wheels. The photo I posted is of my hamster's cage, I decorated it for Christmas. The blue thing on the side is her wheel, she is sleeping, so you can't see her."

Not Silent
Date: December 7, 2008
"I had heard before buying my hamster that wheels were very squeaky, so I took precautions and bought the silent wheel. I was thrilled when my hamster loved it; she ran on it every night! But, it wasn't as silent as I had hoped. Instead of squeaking, it makes a clunk type noise. My friends that also bought it agree. I now have to move my hamster out of my room each night, because it is too loud to sleep with. I can still hear it when the door is closed and I am thirty feet away! My recommedation is buy a wheel that squeaks, it is more bearable than this."

Name is mis-leading...
Date: November 10, 2008
"This wheel is anything but silent. The first one I bought I returned thinking something was wrong with it, and the second one still is just as loud. You cannot keep this in your bedroom as it will keep you up ALL night. I like the size of it though compared to other wheels. Although it is the same size, it is much narrower which makes more room in the tank for other stuff. I would recommend but know this - it is not silent!"

Wonderful
Date: October 5, 2008
"I wish I had bought this wheel sooner. I have had my hamster for a few months now, and the wheel that came with her crittertrail cage was LOUD. it got louder over time, and I couldn't take it anymore. This wheel is freestanding (but can also attach if you so choose) so she is not bouncing against the bars of the cage while she's running (all night), and its totally quiet. Plus it's much better quality."

Very Silent!

"The wheel is very silent! The only flaw is that Annie can hardly get on it. It's too high. I tried putting it lower, but it won't let me. Overall, very good purchase."
