"This is the first cage I got for my hamster Haruki. The first disclaimer this cage has to offer is that it is easily cleaned. Just lift up the two pegs at the bottom and lift the cage... This did not work. The cage fell apart anyways. So, for the past 6 months, i have just taken apart the cage and put it back together after cleaning. Haruki loves this cage, but the only thing is, it is easily broken. little plastic pieces are broken off easily during cleaning if you are not EXTREMELY careful. Over all, I would recommend this cage to a friend while also cautioning them to use extreme care while handling parts. Also, this is NOT the cage to buy if you don't want to spend a minimum of 30 minutes cleaning it."
