Fantastic cage, but the doors annoy me!
This is a great cage! Honestly one of the best cages you can buy for rats! The only thing I don't like is for the price it could be built a little better! Overall it's really good, the issue is the doors! Like everyone else has said, the doors are crooked and don't quite perfectly lock in the holes. They will shut and they will stay shut, but you've got to be careful and make sure you close them properly and push them in, otherwise you might end up coming in the room to see your rats have escaped and are sitting on top of the kitchen counter 🤦 So just make sure those doors are locked shut! Or perhaps could get some clips or ties to make sure the doors are even more secure! Other than the doors... It's a great size! Sturdy and look great! All doors open fully, so it makes cleaning easy! And lots of space and bars and hooks on the ledges to hang stuff. You can keep the ledges in or take them out. You can DIY wood or plastic guards around the bottoms to keep bedding in and so they don't kick it out all over the floor. And it has a fair amount of space underneath for you to store their food and toys and is easy to move around. Definitely happy with the purchase.

The best rat cage money can buy!
This is literally the best rat cage money can buy. Great, sturdy quality. It also looks nice as an added bonus. It was easy to build in no time, probably about 10 minutes - it did require a little bit of rubber malleting but that's worth it for the sheer quality of this thing. Seriously, it's amazing. I love it. My rats love it. It's like a mansion for rats! It's so easy to clean, the doors are 100% perfect, you can access all corners of the cage easily. The undercage storage is great for keeping all your pet's toys, food, bedding etc. The locking wheels work well too and make cleaning behind and under the cage easy rather than a chore. All in all, if you want rats, or presumably other small pets, this is the ONLY cage you should buy!

Roomy, easy to assemble and deep clean/spot clean.
Outstanding cage! I started with 2 rats in a Freddy Savic 2 cage. I knew I wouldn’t be able to help myself and not buy more rats so I did and upgraded to this cage after reading the reviews. My one, huge regret is that I didn’t buy this cage first. Had I done so, I wouldn’t have needed to buy another. Suitable for multiple rats, horizontal bars all round, can leave the middle part on or off for an even bigger space for your furries, add or leave out the shelving ( I did as they tend to be pee magnets!) the addition of fully opening double doors on both top and bottom is so sensible as allows for ease of handling your pocket puppies and cleaning. I have absolutely nothing negative at all I can say about this cage. Superior quality that is just amazing. The only thing I’m having trouble with is trying to stop myself adding more rats 😆 Seriously, don’t think about buying this cage, just DO IT!!!

Really good cage for rats (or other critters)
I dropped the bottom of the cage (and added a deep perspex base) and it's a nice spacious cage even just the bottom half. It feels sturdy. It's nice to know you can the top level in the future. The cage is sturdy, and since it has horizontal bars all over it makes it easy to hang lots of things. I use it for my rats and I think if the space is used wisely you can have 4-5 rats in it. The wheels also work well and it's easy to move it. The cage was easy to assemble but I did need my husband to use some force in one bit, everything else I did it myself with no issues. The instructions could be a bit more user friendly, make sure to actually read it before assembling it (I didn't and had to go back a couple of steps).

Amazing but...
It's not the easiest to build, fortunately I have a very strong and incredibly handy boyfriend to do it lol, although he had to bend some bits of metal and use a hammer to put it together which was all expected because I've looked through all the reviews of it and have been warned. I feel it was worth the hassle though, I love this cage so much, and although it's cheaper in the US, I think it was worth the price I paid, also free P&P. It's so easy to decorate and I'm sure my rats will love it (they're moving in to it tomorrow). The finished product definitely deserves 5 stars, it's massive, sturdy, and just beautiful but the rubbish product control and also absolutely no protective packaging brings it down.

Excellent Design & Quality
Excellent product. It went together very easily without tools and is very strong, sturdy, and well-designed. Once of the best animal housing products we have ever used, and we use a lot !!

Cage is great, Doors aren’t even, delivery was rubbish
Been wanting a bigger and better cage for my 4 male rats since I didn’t like their first one and this one I wasn’t sure about because the amount of money I spent on it. The cage arrived on the day they said it would which was good, delivery was terrible though, I was at least expecting them to put it in the porch to help me out a bit I’m 5ft I couldn’t of lifted that inside on my own. Instead the delivery person placed it on my drive which is fully open! So I had to stand with it and wait until a family member came home to help me. So for that reason I am disappointed in their delivery service as well. To put it up was easy ish some bits were harder than the other but we got there eventually. The cage itself I do love because it has big double doors that open fully and is very spacious which I like. The doors help with interacting with your rats as well. They only thing I would say is that it’s not the best quality, you’re paying £300 for a cage it should be top knotch but it wasn’t, my doors don’t shut even ones lower than the other, sometimes I have trouble shutting them. Always double check every time I shut them. Apart from the cage doors it is a brilliant cage but I am disappointed after paying £300 and the doors aren’t even and that they’re hard to close.

Der Käfig wirkt sehr robust, der Zusammenbau war relativ einfach (hab ihn alleine aufgebaut). Er ist extrem geräumig und man kann sehr viele Versteck- und Klettermöglichkeiten anbringen. Für den Preis Top! Meine 5 Köpfige Ratten Bande tobt schon den ganzen Tag darin. Der Abstand der horizontalen Gitterstäbe beträgt 1,3 cm und ist auch problemlos für weibliche Ratten geeignet. Einziges Manko bei mir war, das eines der vorgestanzten Löcher im Metall, welche die Halterungen des Zwischenbodens aufnehmen, nicht ausgestanzt war und ich musste mit der Bohrmaschine durchbohren, war aber relativ easy. Die Bezüge für die Halb- und Volletagen und auch ein Streuschutz für den untersten Boden gibt es separat zu diesem Käfig zu kaufen. Klare Kaufempfehlung meinerseits.

Fairly easy to assemble- and I'm not much of a handy man so that says a lot. I did need a rubber mallet once to make it all fit together right. Big doors, easy for cleaning inside. Wheels make it great for moving around my apartment if I chose to. Really love this cage!

Easy set up, recommend at least a hammer to help but easily done by 1 person. Really lovely locking system on doors, doors are large and can easily get inside of cage to clean. Was amazed about the size, absolutely huge! Highly recommend for any rat owner as bar spacing is perfect and the horizontal bars make hanging hammocks and other toys and such super easy!

It was not to complicated to assemble it but it is a little bit a pain in the a** to do it alone. The cage is huge, my 2 chinchillas are super happy (they even popcorn in it). Very sturdy metal. I love the doors, they facilitate greatly the maintenance. The box looks intact but I don't know how the cage had some slight damages: -I glued back a plastic piece from one of the platform. -One piece in metal needed to be adjust with a plier. -One of the 4 doors do not fit perfectly but it can still lock so it's ok with me. I was a little sad because it is the shipping that makes this cage very expensive (the cage only cost 250), but at least the damages are not too bad and it arrives....very very fast. In fact, faster than expected. They knock at the door to ask for help to move it instead of letting it outside. I'm very grateful for that, I would not have be happy to know something so expensive outside for an entire day. Overall, I'm very very happy! It's a shame that we cannot find this cage in my region. They want us to buy locally, but even the local told me to go look on amazon for the critter nation which is the best for chinchillas.
