I think that the Hamster Heaven is an excellent design. It is sturdy with a big front door and a top door. My set ups don't involve any DIY. All i do is replace the plastic shelves with a Trixie corner shelf that screws onto the bars and the platform has four legs that screw on. The house is the inexpensive Ferplast guinea pig house.
A friend of mine took the tubes, penthouse and one of the shelves out because they took up valuable space. She left one shelf in which created enough space for a bigger wheel, big bottomless house and other enrichment her Syrian needed.
The green, 8in Roly wheel that comes with the HH is noisy and not really big enough for a Syrian. I put it in the hamster playground together with a 12in Trixie wheel. All my hamsters, from the tiniest dwarf to the biggest Syrian, always choose to run in the big Trixie wheel.
They have other, quieter wheels in their habitats.
