The detolf is a great size for any hamster. I do remember someone somewhere saying it should be 50cm deep but it more than makes up for that in length and gives a lot of scope for enrichment and interesting set ups. Lots of people have detolfs for both Syrian and dwarf hamsters. The wheel height is a slight issue but there are 11" wheels that will fit. It just means you need a shallow substrate end where the wheel is and deeper substrate elsewhere.
