Hello everyone, here I will be reviewing the Swisspet Jerry 100 Plus

I've bought this Jerry 100 Plus second hand, but it can be bought in Galaxus.ch and Qualipet.ch for 200 CHF, or you can buy it seperately with just the lid for 80 CHF and the Glass Tank for 125 CHF.

The Jerry 100 Plus measures for a 100 L x 40 W x 40 H cm, If buying the complete set from Qualipet, you get an optional small closet. It doesn't seem to come with accessories even if bought in a store in Qualipet.

The Jerry 100 Plus is a pretty good Terrarium, large enough to fit Syrian toys and large enough for Hamsters to run around to, I would say this would be a good Terrarium. It has a large top door, that you can slide to close, unlike the Kerry Terrarium, the Jerry Lid has 4 screws and nuts for you to secure it, the older Jerry Terrariums seems to have the Kerry slide lid design and Skyline Top door. The top door lid is also 8 mm.

Positive points:
- Spaceous
- Good Terrarium for any Hamster species.
- Provides the best view for you and your Hamster due to being glass.
- The Lid is universal so you can fit it into any 100x40 cm aquarium or terrarium.
- Surprisingly not too heavy, though still requires two people to lift it.

Negative points:
- As any Glass Tanks would have is the problem to attaching water bottles.
- Rather expensive even as a set.

Overall, the Jerry 100 Plus seems to be a good Terrarium, but there are far other Terrariums that offers more while being spaceous and less-costing.

Wow it's great! It's basically 100cm Kerry isn't it? Kerry and Jerry sound very alike - I wonder if it's the same manufacturer?

It does sound quite alike, and it seems to be related too! The older Jerry Terrariums had Skyline top doors and it isn't attached by a slide like the Kerry.
However, Jerry nowadays are manufactured by Swisspet it seems.

The doors of older Jerries can still be attached since they still use the nut and bolt lock.

I have seen it before a couple of years ago and wanted a tank for a long time, but once I had one I couldn't get on with tanks! I probably just got used to cages. Although that tank is a really nice size.

I've saw your opinions for Kerry, I don't think there are any glass tanks that allows for interactions other than the top, unless if you have cages like the Skyline Falco or the Figo, the Karat seems to be one too but all of them still uses a glass tank for the main space.

As for a Tank with that size and better cost would be the Skyline Marrakesh and Agadir, the Agadir seems to open the whole lid and there are two smaller front doors for the top incase if you don't want to open the whole lid, the Marrakesh is more simpler and fancier compared to the Agadir but both have quite large space like the Jerry Plus.

Sorry for the late reply.
