This is the one you are looking for
There are a lot of these on the market so it can be difficult to choose which one to get. There are several features that come together to make this the one.1. Solid construction (lids will sometimes stick while sliding if you don't line it up right). Some of them you have to put together and they stay together with large rubber bands. This one is together already and solid.2. Magnets. The lid and the cleaning drawer latch with rare earth magnets. Your creature will not push them open or scurry out. It's also satisfying to feel them click into place.3. Design. There is a lid for easy access to put in and take out landscaping and animals. There is also a drawer at the bottom to remove and clean things up. It's nice. Or, if you have a jumping spider, you can use this drawer for feeding as the spider will often have the web up top. There are also tiny holes for cross ventilation.4. Price. The price on this was better than others, especially true given the quality comparison.

Super accessible
It was very easy moving the P Irminia into it. If anyone knows this species then you know the difficulty in rehousings lol. I love the set up. It’s so cute. Will not be using the bottom pull out drawer though.

Nice overall, but has a gap and warps
I got this in 8x4x4 as a small terrarium for roly polies. Overall I think it was pretty nice. The construction is good quality and looks attractive. The magnets are strong and well placed. Closing/opening feels satisfying. The holes are small enough to keep critters in but large enough to ventilate (slightly smaller than 0.08 in or 2 mm). I like that they put the little triangle profile baffles along the drawer edge, so that if water were to drip along the walls, it would go inside the drawer and not between the drawer and the wall.Now the bad.First of all, if you are hoping to use the drawer for easy cleaning, keep in mind that this will only work with a certain soil level and if you don't have any tall objects. If you have plants in there, you cannot pull the drawer out. Obvious, I know, but I only realized it after buying.The drawer leaves a large gap above the handle. It's about 3-4 mm. My roly polies kept escaping through it until I noticed and taped it over. I put a few layers of aluminum foil and with basic sticky tape over it, reasoning that it will make sure they don't chew through the tape. The tape does look ugly and disturb the aesthetics of the terrarium.As a result, I think the drawer is a bit of a gimmick unless you have a very specific use in mind. This would have been much better if they did not have a drawer and just made the floor and 4 walls completely flush with each other.Second, the box warped over a few weeks. At first I noticed the lid being hard to slide and easily derailing. And no, I was always closing very gently, so it wasn't the derailing that made it warp. It was not exposed to extreme heat or direct sunlight. After about 2 weeks, I noticed that the walls are bulging outwards such that at the widest point (above the holes) there is a 3 mm gap between the lid and the wall (not including the rail). I think this was the saddest and most disappointing thing about this product. I could have lived with the drawer, but the gap on the lid is hard to forgive. Luckily my roly polies can't seem to climb walls, but I now have issues with moisture loss. (before warping it could easily hold 99% humidity in my 50% house)While on that topic, I think making the lid hinged would have been a better design.So in summary:* The drawer leaves a gap big enough for small insects to pass. Look for another product without it unless you really need the drawer.* The walls warp and leave a gap with the lid. Don't use for small climbing/flying insects.* Besides those two issues the quality is good. If they are okay for your application, I'd recommend this.

Very nice!
Purchased for a Jumping Spider. Nice, clear & very sturdy acrylic. Not too thick so most magnetic fixtures work great! Had to think a bit on how to use fixtures as it also has a drawer.*Not put together with rubber bands.

Lid bowed within days!
I thought I'd love this enclosure when I put it together. It's a great size, has amazing venting, was easy to put together & no scratches. As soon as I put the substrate in though, I was already a little annoyed. Substrate falls between acrylic sides on the outside of white bottom no matter how you put it in & it looks awful. If I didn't fill it as high it wouldn't be deep enough. Because the bottom substrate barrier is white, the substrate mess really stands out. Ok, I was willing to overlook this. Within a week the lid warped up so bad I can't even close it properly. Magnets don't even touch, it's completely non-secure, I have to put something heavy on top so my tarantula won't escape. I've had no heat source near, no light on top, house temp is kept in 70s. Only reason I haven't returned this enclosure is because my T. kahlenbergi already made a burrow & I didn't want to stress it out re-housing again. I definitely do not recommend this enclosure because the defective lid is a major risk factor & it's curved up so bad there's no way to fix it. Super disappointed.

Super easy setup! Super clear acrylic design.
Try to make sure you look before placing the lids back on, because my kid put it on upside down and we had to use a screw as a makeshift handle to remove the lid again, but otherwise it's a FANTASTIC cage for small Critters! My child has a handful of hissing cockroaches in hers. They're damn near escape proof! I love them!!!

Love! Perfect for my mini snail
I have a snail that will grow about 22mm and this set up is perfect for him. My only issue is that it’s not escape proof for many animals that you would keep in a terrarium this small. A jumping spider, small slugs, ect- everything would escape the gap between the bottom tray and the side wall. Luckily my snails shell is just big enough I don’t have to worry.I love the easy access from either the removable top or the bottom tray. I get a great 360 degree view of my snail and the air flow holes are perfect for my snails needs.
