Almost perfect!!!

This cage is nearly perfect except for one thing...The top latch has a screw that comes with it that you are supposed to push in and that holds the cage top in place. Unfortunately the screw was WAY to big and we had to use a dremel tool to cut the hole bigger. We overshot it, and then the screw wouldn't stay in the hole. So we nixed the screw and used a black, thick zip tie and it works perfectly.
Other than that one tiny issue (and it's an issue more than one person has had with this particular model) the cage is awesome. My little fuzzy has so much room and so much fun. :)

I got this cage for my rats since they were starting to outgrow their old one, and I wanted them to have a ferret cage because of the size. Having been hesitant at first because of all the negative reviews about broken bases, shelves not fitting properly, etc, it was the depth of the base and its extremely convenient pull out design (my boys are so messy! lol!)that ultimately convinced me. I was so pleased when it came! There was SO much room and everything fit great! The bars are of sturdy steel, and the shelves a very decent plastic. Although the options are limited on where you can place the shelves because the doors are so large, I think it is better this way. The large doors offer easier access to inside the cage. I think the only negative aspect is use of pins to keep the doors shut, hindering one handed use. Again, not a big deal. This cage is fantastic, roomy, well made, and well worth the price! My two boys and I love it, and since it is extremely roomy, more ratties can join them! Thanks ferret.com!

Great, Careful with Chewers

We have two girls, and there is PLENTY of room! We've had them in it for over a year, and it has held up well. Building it was easy, and was delivered without any flaws. The casters make it easy to move. Only things to take into consideration, one of my girls is a chewer, and likes to chew on the plastic floors. Also, the way the levels are shown in the picture is pretty much the only way you can arrange the levels. But it's been very great! And especially for the price. I would buy it again, or recommend it to a friend.

Hello my name is Gizmo I'm a Marmoset Monkey. My mommy and daddy bought this cage for me a little over a month ago and I LOVE IT!!!Mommy likes the fact that she can take off the doors for me so I can go in and out whenever I want to because I don't like to be locked in. Also, mommy said the cage was easy to put together and would of been much easier if I wasn't trying to help. Overall mommy and I would recommend this cage.OH NO mommy is coming better get off her puter before I get in trouble AGAIN!!
Love Gizzy

for the money, it's a decent cage. i got it because it was large and came with a deep basin (which we needed since our ferret wasn't potty trained at the time.) easy to put together. i like the completely customizable levels (i don't like platforms butting up against corners, as she tends to use them as potty spots.)
however on more than one occasion our ferret has wiggled out from gaps between the basin and the cage. yikes! :( i've modded the cage to protect against that, but that simply should not happen. the design where the troth meets the cage is an accident waiting to happen. i also wish the locking mechanism was not a separate post and latch, since it can be a pain in the butt to open and close with a wiggly critter in your arms.

I own to Chins and they both love the cage. My only problem is that some welded pieces have broken at the joints, I have had to repair using coat hangers and the shelving are cracking. I do wished that they had the tunnels for these as my guys love them. My other cage is a Ferret also-purple & green that I use as a spare as needed. My cage is only 2 years old!!!!

When I first opened up the box I noticed the base was broken, along with a few of the snap on floors for inside the cage. Screwing the screws into the cage ended up stripping the metal so it made it much harder to assemble. I thought the ramps with the small ridges in them would make it easier on my fuzzies to get around the cage, but it ended up making it harder for them to get down. They get nervous trying to come down the ramps and end up sliding down head first. Most comfy cubes and hammocks are too short for the fuzzies to jump into to go to sleep so they were sleeping on the floors. In conclusion, the box with the newspaper shreds ended up being more fun for the little fuzzy monsters than their new home has been. Maybe they just need to get used to it.

I first purchased a smaller cage when I bought my son's ferrets, it was so flimsy they could get out and the shelves would fall on them. I found this cage and ordered it, received it in 5 days! Had a few issues with screws stripping and the allen wrench didn't work well so I used one of my husbands and assembled it quickly after that. The ferrets LOVE it.. It is very sturdy and looks like a great cage... The biggest selling point was the pull out tray for litter cleaning!

Another thing I forgot to mention in my review was that assembly was a piece of cake. I actually put 3/4s of the cage together while I was on the phone. It was very simple!

I have to say I searched around for a really long time and this cage stuck out for its uniqueness and size. I wanted a very large cage for my one little guy because he outgrew his first cage and I have hopes of getting 3 more ferrets to join him. I read all the reviews and people would say "the cage is much bigger than I expected" and they were right. I thought I would be ready for the size of it (I even measured it out ahead of time) but seeing it in person, I was like "wow". I like that you can set up the cage to your liking and that there is a nice sized pull out drawer (but the drawers latch that keeps it closed is a little small. But my ferret hasnt figured it out yet and I hope it stays that way). The ramps took some getting used to for my ferret. I had to supervise him for a day or two until he got the hang of all the different levels. He even still occasionally falls off down from the top level and plops onto the bottom but hes learning. One thing I dont really like is that the levels will snap into place but slightly slide around. They dont go far but I just worry that my ferret will pinch his feet one day. Also the door latches are great because its impossible for the buggers to escape. Over all this cage is great. Its spacious, unique, changable, easy to clean, and my ferret loves it.
