Great Product

Gone are the days of the "squeaky" wheel. Solid wheel with no bars like the wire wheels so no sore feet. And for anyone who had a hamster with the old squeaky wheel, this is a great improvement. A little pricey but worth the quiet, plus with the solid wheel, the hamster can run much faster and longer which is better exercise for them.

Amazingly quiet!
PostedDecember 26, 2012
Hamsterville
from WI
I purchased this wheel for my 2 dwarf hamsters. It is amazingly quiet. So much so that you never hear them running on it. I actually have to look in the cage to see if the wheel is turning in order to tell if they are running on it. They love it! They can really get going fast on it too since it turns so easily. I got the large one so they would both fit on it which they do quite nicely. I'm going to get another one though so they both have one to run on. I definitely recommend this wheel!!!

Silent exercise wheel
PostedDecember 4, 2012
Pygora
from San Diego, CA
It is mostly silent but there is one huge downfall that I didn't think of. It collects poo like crazy! Needless to say I am constantly cleaning this thing because it's always dirty. It is quiet though but if you don't like cleaning poo by hand....don't get this wheel. :-D I guess another good thing but unintentional would be that the rest of the cage is mostly clean because it collects in the wheel.

May not actually be silent

This wheel turns and does not squeak, but my wheel is not silent. Each time it turns it makes a noise like "Click!" My hamster is in the room next to my room, I have to take the wheel out every night. The clicking is so loud, you can hear it from my living room.
But, my hamster does love this wheel. It doesn't squeak which would be more annoying than clicking.
I don't know if EVERY silent spinner does this or if it is just mine.

Product much better for little feet

Our little friend had a metal wheel before this, it hurt his toe. This one is so much better, no room for his toes to get stuck. It is also so much more quiet, sometimes we don't even hear him running. It can stay on the stand or attach right on the cage.

Perfect for my gerbils!

Emelia
from WI
I really love this wheel, and so do my little boys! It is very quiet as long as it is upright (sometimes they knock it over, and I have to set it right). At first I was skeptical about a plastic wheel, but I've been very impressed with its durability. Once in a while one of my gerbils manages to chew on the edge, but in the three years I've had them, they've never managed to do any serious damage whatsoever.

TOO SMALL FOR SYRIAN HAMMY!
PostedJuly 20, 2012
LittleCritter
from MI
Just as the title says, this is too small for my syrian hammy. He is not even a big hammy, and not full grown either, and yet this was just too small. Also mine is a male, females get even bigger. His back was just a hair away from touching the center area (not good), but when he did test it, it was very quiet. You really don't want to risk hurting your hamsters back from it arching too much while it's on its wheel. I ending up buying the wheel they used at Petco for their syrians, which yes, it is metal, but they have never had any accidents with hamsters feet getting caught, and the size of the spaces are very small. It's about a 8.5" wheel or so, and he runs on it every night without issues. He loves his spacious wheel.

The best I've Found
PostedJuly 9, 2012
WinrYYuzU
from San Antonio, Texas
In my experience, there is no such thing as a "silent" wheel. However, with that said, this one gets pretty close. In my years of hamster care, this is the best and quietest that I've found so far. And since it is curved, your small pets won't slide out of it. And it sits on the wire nicely and is easy to put on.
I would recommend this wheel! My hamster Kanon loved it when she was still with us, and I plan on using one for my future hamsters too!
By the way....If anyone has found a quieter one I'd love to know which one it is. :))

Chose a wheel too small
PostedApril 9, 2012
firsttimecustomer
from New Haven, CT
The wheel is fine but even for a dwarf hamster, don't choose the 4.5" wheel. It's too small and impossible to run in. Go for the 6" , even for your very small animal.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

When I write my reviews, I am completely honest. It isn't too silent. You honestly could have just gotten one of the other wheels. (but they must be solid) Though as you can see in the picture below, Dale loves his silent spinner!

You could just get one of the other wheels. It's only silent when the area is clear of bedding, and knowing my mice, it would be filled with it within a minute! The mice do like it though!

Not completely quiet, but quiet enough for me. Doesn't squeak at all. You can barely hear it rattle just a tiny bit. Easy to clean & very sturdy. My dwarf hamster LOVES this wheel. She even sleeps in it. She never slept in her previous wheels. Definitely don't regret buying this!

It is exactly what it says it is... Silent!
We purc hased one to see how it was and ended up buying 2 more. Our hamsters love it. It is easy to install and also easy to clean. Definetly worth the money we spent on it. You will be happy too.

Okay but still noisey

LoveMyMini
from Connecticut
I have to say this wheel isn't as loud as the ones that come equipped in the cages. I noticed a difference when you keep it on the metal stand it isn't as loud as when clipping it to the cage. When it's clipped on the cage my dwarf hamster Minnie goes mock 10 on it and it bangs. The only bad thing about keeping it on the metal stand is my hamster seems to teeth on it instead of her wood chews. She's scrapping the paint off. So i take it off the stand when I'm not home to hear it bang against the cage.

filthy wheel
PostedNovember 13, 2011
i have 3 mice. at first they loved it, but then it started to get very dirty and is pretty hard to clean. if you wash it with a dry paper towel, the dirt won't come off, but if you wash it with soap and water it will start to squeak! eventually, i had to buy a new wheel.

Worked perfectly for the first week...then
PostedAugust 11, 2011
Cuppy
from Boston
I have the wheel placed in a glass aquarium away from the walls and on top of bedding + a disposable cardboard bottom. This wheel worked PERFECTLY for the first couple of weeks. Now I'm starting to hear a low thumping noise and it's starting to look a bit wobbly. I have to reposition it every morning because somehow the wheel will slowly turn inwards towards the left while my hamster is using it at night. The thumping isn't loud enough to keep me up, but it's a telling sign. I've heard of this issue before but I didn't think that my tiny little hamster would wear it down fast enough to matter. From the looks of it now, I can already tell that this will not last for more than a month or two. I hear 6 weeks is the lifespan for people with the same issues. Pity because it works so well when you first get it.
Might just op for a sturdy plastic wheel and apply vegetable oil instead of buying a new one.
This wheel is being used for a new young syrian hamster and NO, he is not fat. I attached a picture of my little cutie.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I Love Silent Spinner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
PostedMay 21, 2011
elizcar
from Neponsit, New York
I love the silent spinner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It works great and does not squeak. It would be a five star wheel but, I have one concern. My dwarf female hamster, Pippa goes very fast on her wheel and during the night (when I am triyng to sleep), It rubs on the bottom of the cage and makes a rubbing noise. It is fixable but, beware. if your hamster has their cage located close to where someone sleeps,works,e.t.c, be prepared for some noise. It may not ocur in your cage. Other than that slight glitch, I would highly recomend it. Go out and get yours today and you will not regret it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
