> 24 hourThis is a perfect cage for my greencheek when we go out on the patio for some fresh air and relaxation. Itll also be great for vet trips because its a long drive from where I live. The best part is that he likes it so I dont get eaten alive like I do when I put him in his smaller travel carrier. He happily goes right in! I think it would work well as a sleeping cage, but my little guy sleeps in his regular cage. Im docking one star because the door doesnt stay latched, and even when it does (which is never) theres a large gap. I dont leave him alone when hes in it because itd be too easy for him to get out when were outside or in the car. I made an additional latch from wire, but the gap is still there. And please note that this cage probably isnt safe for any bird smaller than a Greencheek. I think budgies and similar sized birds could get out through the bars, or worse yet, get their head through the bars, and then get stuck. The cage is easy to put together after a small struggle unpacking it, and will be easy to collapse and store away when summers over. Overall, I recommend the cage for travel or getting fresh air, but only for birds who are at least as big as a Greencheek, and only when someone is with him.

> 24 hourThis will be a perfect travel cage for my green cheek conure. In my opinion, it shouldnt be a home cage because I think that bigger is always better for a main cage. Every single part of me is impressed with this cage. The only gripe would be that there is a single handle in the middle which makes weight distribution a little funky and its made of the same wire as the bars so it would start to hurt if you have to carry the cage for a bit. The cup holder bolts could also be better and you would need a screwdriver to really get them to be hulked on to the bars, but you can have them stay just fine just using your hands. If your bird is an escape artist, the door mechanism may not be sufficient, but its just fine for me. Otherwise, everything else is ingenious. It took about 30 seconds to figure out how to expand it when I took it out of the box. The bowls are made in a SUPER smart way. You can kind of see it in the pictures, but the holders arent a perfect circle. they have little nubs coming out. The bowls have similar nubs on their outside so that you drop them into the loops and then rotate them so that they are locked in place and cant come out until you line up the bowl nubs with the loop extrusions. I dont think that it is super necessary, but its still very cool to me that someone thought out such an interesting concept. The bowls may be a little bit deep for some birds or for very small ones, but Im sure that most people would be totally fine with using some of their own. The perch has deep anchoring grooves so that its easy to place it and it is very stable. There is also a mechanism to hold the cage in place when it is flattened out. The catch tray is secured into place with another wire door-type mechanism but is still super easy to get to and remove for whatever reason. If you do a little bit of jamming, you can even get the bowls to fit under the wire floor for storage in the catch tray. I personally know that I wont just be using the items that come with the cage and will add some of my own, but you would be totally fine for with what it comes with. Its an amazing buy at the price point (I got mine for $37 USD). For a small to medium bird, I would absolutely recommend this cage. Just dont even bother looking at others. If you need a travel cage, this is perfect. The selling point for me was being able to collapse it. I am extremely satisfied and impressed.

> 24 hourWe have been getting severe weather around here more often than I like. I dawned on me. How do I drag my gigantic flight cages down to the basement to save my birds? I dont.... This travel cage put my mind at ease. My birds also love playing around on this thing. Id say best fit for cockatiel sized birds to medium sized birds. Anything smaller their head will get stuck in the wide bars. Anything larger and they will not have enough room to stretch at all. Only negative I can think of is the bowls that come with it are way to deep. Cut that depth down by half, and they would be perfect!

> 24 hourThis bird cage will do for now for short road trips between the house the bird lives at and the pet sitter. However, the instructions to put this cage together were poor and I had to get them off the website because the instructions and parts were trapped in the folded cage and could not be reached until the cage was put together. The cage might have been easy to put together except that 2 sides were stuck together in a way that they were not meant to go. It took pliers to get them apart. The door locking mechanism does not really lock. A bounce could easily move the mechanism out of the lock. I will have to tie them together. 9/4/16 Further problems. The included wooden perch is too large and smooth for the parakeet. Also, the perch will not stay attached to the sides of the cage because the perch is just slightly too short. The included steel dishes are nice dishes, but far too large for the cage. 9/10/16 This is a very sturdy cage. The bars are strong. When the cage is opened up it does not come apart. The cage would be very hard to tip over. These are very good things for a road trip. The prior issues do still stand, but can be handled. None of the otherr cages you could travel with were this sturdy or this hard to tip. So I am upping the review to 4 stars.

> 24 hourI am extremely satisfied with this cage. It is for a small to medium size bird. I have a pionus and she is not a real active girl so this is perfect for the amount of time she is in it. It is nice as a traveling, sleeping cage or for some outside patio time as she is not harnessed trained. In a crunch, she could live in here for a few days providing I give her enough out of cage time to stretch her wings and play. It is super easy to put together and takes about 1 minute to set up. I have 2 others like this but a different brand. This one is about $10 more than my others but its worth the extra money. It seems the wire is heavier which makes it more sturdy. The bowls are of nicer quality with small safety hooks that help hold them in place. The bottom tray is deeper and heavier plastic with a latch that prevents it from sliding out. It includes a perch but I use only natural or rope perches. It is at a great price point for the quality. Dont look any further. I am pretty particular and would highly recommend this travel cage.

> 24 hourEasy to assemble/ disassemble. Not too heavy and easy to clean. Perfect for traveling and temporary accommodation for my two cockatiels.

> 24 hourOnce I figured out how to put it together it turned out super. Very sturdy for sure. Directions were rather sketchy but common sense prevailed.The hard part was figuring how to get the tray out with the dishes and perch setting in the tray. Just look at the very end of the cage and pull down on the curved handles at each end and it drops down so that the tray can then be removed. Now remember the dishes and perch are a bit hard to slide out on the tray but a little umph and success. The dish holder is extremely secure and easy to attach to the wires. The stainless steel dishes are very well constructed. Each dish has a marked indentation to set the dish on and it drops and turns to securely lock in place. Thus your bird can not flip each dish.( a terrific design indeed) I am amazed how well built this cage is. Now it is somewhat heavy to carry but what the heck. It is definitely worth this feature. I am getting one each for my Cockatiel Senegal and GCC. They need such a cage as they will be visiting my friend(their aunt as I named her) for 2 weeks. Their home cages are the 5 and 6 foot styles. I hope you like my comments.
