"I picked this up when I got my gecko since this is what they had in his cage. So I figured it would be easy to find him and would reduce his stress since it was some what familiar.
Since the hide slides next to the glass, it makes it so the cage all around has more space for the gecko and for more decor, particularly another hide on the cooler side.
I read a review that said it was no good for climbing on but at night my gecko is usually laying on top and is able to go back in easily via the top entrance.
It is true that crickets can hide in the small spaces inside the cage, although it can be avoided by only feeding the gecko 2-3 crickets at a time and make sure he gets them all before placing more in."
