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)

All their products are amazing! And their customer service is even better! As you can see from my photo, I order a lot of niteangel!

I dont normally write reviews, but wanted to share that Im extremely happy with the quality of this product. Built very well, packaged extremely well, and overall its a beautiful product. I was about to spend $130 on a wire-frame hamster enclosure with a thin, plastic bottom that looks like it cost around $5 to make, as its essentially all thats available at most pet stores. Decided to splurge and spend an additional $100 on this enclosure and man was it worth it. Yes, $230 is pricey, but when you consider its just $80-100 more than those plastic and wire enclosures its not that bad. This thing actually looks really nice in your home and is great quality. Ive read that its better for the health of your hamsters too as they can get too cold in the open, wire enclosures and that it can force them into a hibernation state. This enclosure is a night and day difference to the other stuff out there. I will quickly add that I did have one slight issue with the hinge for the enclosure, but customer service was excellent. I e-mailed them with the specific issue and within hours I had a response and a tracking number for a new part. Within 36 hours of my initial e-mail I already had a replacement part at my front door, and now everything is perfect.

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!

Gone are the days when it is considered acceptable to imprison small animals in cramped, plastic or metal cages. The niteangel Vista is a humane and BEAUTIFUL enclosure that will make you and your owt feel good. Assembly isnt difficult, but it helps to have an extra set of hands. As recommended by other reviewers, I sealed the interior with clear aquarium silicone in leui if the provides tape. I ordered the bottom wheels (sold separately) to make it easier to move. This thing is a beast and difficult to move, so the wheels are a nice add-on imo. I had a lot of fun filling this enclosure with accessories and designing the layout. All of the niteangel products are wonderful and I plan to get more thing says my budget allows. Anyway, this is a great product and worth the money for me. Im very happy and hope it holds up.

So this was pretty easy to set up with two people. Getting this massive cage for a hamster is probably the best move you can do to buy a commercial cage designed just for hamsters. All of those itty bitty cages at the pet store should never be sold and be considered animal abuse. This cage is far from that. Your hamster is able to have deep areas to burrow, explore and run around in this cage. 100% would recommend this incredible cage to anyone who is serious about owning a hamster!

I ended up buying this because we purchased one at PetSmart that was way too small for the Syrian hamster we adopted there. The wheel they recommended was so small he reached both sides while trying to run. I didnt want to spend the money on such an expensive enclosure but the hamster was displaying signs of stress and we wanted to provide a humane and engaging place for him. I chose this one because of the size, ventilation and slanted lid. It was much larger than expected and the perfect size. My teenage daughter wanted to put it together herself and she said it was relatively easy. After reading other reviews (I always start with the 1-star review), I was worried it would be kind of cheap looking. Not at all!! The wood is particle board but had nicely rounded edges. I love the innovative design. Its easy to clean and with the slant lid design, its easy to reach straight in to interact with Artie. It was a LOT bigger than expected. He is much happier. I did order a 10inch wheel which was too big for him but everything I bought from the brand is very well constructed. It is a problem that I find myself wanting to buy more. Im one toy away from it being too much! The price was a little high but its good quality.
