"So far, so good. Took about 45 min to put together. Good size for 2 full grown hedgehogs. Easy to clean with the removable tote. Using felt so no issues with bedding falling down in between the little bit of extra space around tray. Only complaint was the damaged front piece (see photo.)"

β€” Bobby

"Worse I Decision, I made purchasing this cage. Not only did my hedgehog's wheel not fit in the bottom section. It also soaked up all the pea. Cause it did not have 2 plastic liners. The ramps kept falling off and the directions are so horrible. You couldn't figure it out"

Bottom Line

While the cage is functional and aesthetically pleasing, the numerous quality issues and harsh criticism from users make it a problematic choice for most pet owners.
