At first I found sputniks were ignored with our first hamster but I started putting a treat in them and along the tube and he soon got in the habit of using them. I often found him basking in it in the middle of the night. I put a circle of hemp mat inside so they're not so big or cold and plasticky. Some people put bedding in them. Yes that is an issue - jumping out. I try and have one side/hole over a shelf, another one against the bars and the third one over an area of substrate where they can't land on anything - or as in this case - a tube going out of the third one so they can't jump out.
