"This is an easy and cheap cage. The only problem was the instructions to build it were incorrect. It did not show that you need to add the support bars to the bottom (where the wheels screw in). It took us a long time to figure out how to get it together!"

— SELLER

"One almost got away because the bars weren't tight enough. And I don't know what the box that comes with the cage is, but it's flimsy and not usable. The manufacturer didn’t even get the info label on the smaller box right. I don't know what I've received, but it wasn't what I wanted for my rich r..."

Bottom Line

For first-time owners or those on a tight budget, this cage might meet minimal needs but with expectations of frequent upgrades or replacements. Sturdy and more spacious alternatives are recommended for long-term pet health and satisfaction.
