Hi, the wheel is fine for a dwarf hamster but too small for a Syrian to run comfortably with a straight back. I think i have the same one for my dwarfs but they're 7in not 8in ones so probably a different wheel.

The bin cage looks lovely and a good size but i would have added a meshed front window so the hamster can look out and you can sit by the cage chatting so the new hamster gets to know you, your voice and your smell.
