Niteangel Vista Hamster Cage W/Oblique Opening Cage Door - MDF Aspen Small Animal Cage for Syrian Dwarf Hamsters Degus Mice or Other Similar-Sized Pets (Small - 32.9 x 17.2 x 21.1 inches, Burlywood)

I highly recommend Niteangel products it was very easy to Assemble pricey but worth the money it held together very well

So nice and spacious. It is an investment but you will not be disappointed. This is a nice brand and a beautiful cage! Our hamster is very happy living in her large and spacious cage.

The minimum recommended size cage for hamsters (any species) is 450in² (1143cm) The 32.9x17.2x21.1 cage sq inch is 565.92in² (1437.4cm) The 40.7x22.7x22.9 cage sq inch is 931.68in² (2366.4cm) Which is x2 the recommended size. The 47.1x22.7x26.9 cage sq inch is 1068.48in² (2713.9cm) Which is x2.37 the recommended size. There is no Maximum recommended size, the bigger the happier. With the two larger cages you could split the cage in half and have two hamsters in one box. This enclosure allows for more than 3 inches of substrate (below-recommended minimum) Personal experience: My cage was very quick to set up with only a few broken bands. they gave me around 8 or so extra bands so it was no worry. One thing to keep in mind is the fact they use acrylic for the side panels which means if you use paper bedding you WILL have static issues. (however, this means you can remove some dust from the bedding by wiping down the sides) Assembly/ Setup: This tank is very easy to assemble. I put mine together quietly and quickly. If you are movement restricted I can see this being a little hard but doable by yourself or with some help. In the set up they gave you paper tape to waterproof the edges of the tank. This of course will not actually be waterproof, resists water at best. I do recommend putting the tape in as it will stop bedding and possibly little fingers from slipping in the cracks. tl;dr this is the best cage by size, assembly, and visibility I can find for a decent price on the market.

My hamster loves this cage I definitely recommend. I did have one silicone band pop, but luckily they give you extra. I did assemble the cage by myself so it was fairly easy. I would say I wish there was a plastic screen to go on the back of the cage just like how it was for the flooring. All in all great item!

i have a syrian female hamster and they are definitely hard to please with cages! i have gone through 3 other cages and she seems to like this one the best, or tolerates it the best.

I love the volume of this enclosure. Not only is the floor space well above the minimum, but the space and depth inside is so good for providing your hamster with a deep compacted variety of bedding and herbs. Other Niteangel products fit snug inside, like the chamber hides and tunnel watch boxes. A very large wheel fits well on the side, and the rest can just be packed with all that bedding that hamsters need. Adding sprays and enriching toys on top of all of this makes for the perfect enclosure for a hamster. I was able to put this together myself, it came with a sheet of instructions and supplies. Gloves, paper tape, nails & a tool to install them, acrylic sheets, and a silicone strip to prevent the lid from chipping the top of the enclosure. There was no need to use other supplies because this came with everything you need to build it. It took a while for one person, but it can be done. The enclosures ventilation is also good, it never becomes too hot or too cold inside. You can also hang chew toys from the ventilation slits on the top of the enclosure just fine. If I ever got a second hamster, I would not hesitate to buy a second of this one!

I was impressed with how easy it was to set up. I didn’t realize it would be as big as it is but that’s my fault. I like theirs products are more natural looking g for an overall theme. My baby seems to be super happy.

The cage arrived thoughtfully packaged and was quick and easy to assemble, it looks great and is the perfect size for the dwarf hamster I’m about to adopt. It’s worth every penny, I couldn’t be happier with my new cage.

I adopted a Syrian Hamster a little over three weeks ago. It has been years since I owned a hamster and science has evolved and standards have changed. I purchased the biggest cage they had which was a 430 sq. in. at the Pet store only realizing very quickly how small it truly was after speaking to the woman at the store. I knew I needed to get a bigger enclosure immediately. I came home and researched many enclosures and watched many review videos trying to figure out which enclosure to purchase. I decided to go with the Niteangel Vista Large with it arriving a week after I adopted her and just in time as she started frequently chewing on the bars of her small cage and she appeared to not be happy with her limited space. I have had the enclosure for about 2 weeks now. Overall, I am extremely happy with my choice and Harley seems to be very happy as well since she can now burrow and has more room to explore. Setup was easy, but an extra set of hands is helpful otherwise you are trying to juggle putting it together. I ran into an issue where the lid was getting Stuck when trying to close it. After investigation, I realized the little metal cylinders that are supposed to rest in the holes located on the side walls where the lid connects were missing. Please be mindful when opening up the packaging to not lose these as they are freely placed in the side wall holes and easily fall out if you dont know they are there. Niteangel should think about putting them in the plastic bag with the screws. I located one on the floor and the other fell out inside the packaging. I saw another review of a customer complaining about their lid getting stuck so I thought this was worth mentioning. Once I placed these in the holes and reattached the lid, I no longer have an issue with the lid getting stuck. Works smooth as butter now. The lid is heavy so you dont have to worry about your hamster pushing it open and squeezing out. The lid stays open on its own so you can use both hands when reaching into the enclsoure. The enclosure is lightweight but cumbersome to move due to its size and requires two people to move it after it is assembled. It appears to be sturdy while in place but I would not attempt to move it before breaking it down first for fear of bending the MDF board or it get racked out of alignment. As others have stated, I would recommend building the enclosure where you plan on setting it up as it is massive. You dont realize how big it truly is until after you have it set up. The quality of the MDF board seems to be somewhat sturdy and I love the plexiglass bottom to protect the floor of the enclosure. I would recommend an acrylic sandbox for pottying. Harley is solely using her sandbox for going to the bathroom which I think would save the urine smell from seeping into the MDF and keeping the enclosure smelling fresher. I would have liked to seen a hardwood option where I could seal the edges with aquarium sealant instead of tape. I dont feel comfortable using sealant on the MDF board as it would be permanent in the event I need to break down the enclosure should I ever need to move it. I installed the tape as best I could, but it seems to be more forgiving over the sealant for disassembly. I had to move the enclosure to the floor to install the tape as I had to practically climb inside the enclosure to get the tape affixed which was a pain. Unlike other reviews, I was fortunate as none of the silicone bands broke while installing them and they were very easy to install. I LOVE the slanted lid. It makes it much simpler to reach into the enclosure to clean and interact with her and she doesnt feel threatened since I am not coming in directly above her. Due to the size it and having the correct amount of substrate/tunneling system does make it more difficult to locate your hamster and you are forced to wait until he/she decides they are ready to wake up and come out to play for their daily interaction. The plexigass sides and front gives you a great view of your hamster to watch them as they explore their environment when they are awake. Cleaning is another chore in itself. It is not as simple as just dumping the substrate and wiping it out. As I mentioned, this enclosure is massive and heavy once you load it up and probably not as durable for moving to dump it out in one fell swoop. You will need to get a dust pan or a scoop in order to remove the substrate and then you can vaccuum any leftover pieces before disinfecting the inside of the enclosure. It is not terrible, just time consuming. If you have this on a table like I do, you will most likely need a step stool to reach into the very bottom of the enclosure. I placed my enclosure on a Lifetime Height Adjustable Craft Camping and Utility Folding Table that supports up to 200 lbs evenly distributed measuring 48 inches x 24 inches with a 2x4 Non Slip Rug Pad Gripper under it to keep it from sliding. I wanted to comment on that since I struggled finding something to place the enclosure on and the legs have Adjustable Height Settings (22-Inch, 24-Inch, 29-Inch and 36-Inch) which is nice to be able to set it to a height you desire. I wish someone would have provided that information in a review so I could save myself time finding a compatible table. Overall, The enclosure is big enough to support the hide box, tunneling system, 11 wheel, sandbox, platforms and other enrichment items to keep her entertained. The many configurations are endless. The cost of this enclosure I feel is a bit steep for the type of material being used. I truly feel this is a great investment for your Hamster compared to other options currently available in the US.

pretty easy to put together overall! i love how much room it has to offer for my hamster as well. i’ve had a few cages by now and this one’s my favorite!
