Well, i thought i'd do a review on this cage, as ive seen reviews for only proper named hamster cages :) I'm not sure of its name, or a name of a cage similar, so lets call it Large Wire Cage :mad:

Please note* This is when i first got the cage, the house has changed, the wire levels have been covered and a new wheel is being ordered tomorrow.
Description:
58cm Diameter.
41cm Height.
8cm Base Depth.
28cm Width.
22cm long ladders X2.
28cm Larger level.
18cm Smaller Level.
Accesories:
A Non-Leak Water bottle, with a ball. (Whatever there called Lol)
Small Plastic house with window.
Ladders X2
Two levels (3 Including the base)
Two easily unclipped,but sturdy clips to attach the wire top, to the base.
One tiny wheel - Yes, one of those pet shop wheels.
Pros:
A Decent amount of floor space, which toys, a wheel, bed and food bowl can be added with more room still avalible. This cage has two different sized levels, both of which can have a ladder easily attached too.
Two doors, easily opened, but not to easy opened for hamster escapes!
It also has a handle for transport (although if i move it i put my hand underneath the cage anyway)
Its one big climbing frame! Which makes it easy to attach lots of hanging and other things (I added a hammock)
Great Ventilation and light.
Only £27.99
Con's:
The doors are a little bit small which makes it hard to add, and remove objects and i usually have to unclip the clips and take the wire top of to get them in.
The handle is a little bit dodgy and pathetic.
The Levels are wire, with nothing on top to protect the hamsters feet (but i bought these safe, chewy mats which i atteched to the side of the cage to put over it)
Being a very open wire cage, it may get cold in the winter and let in drafts more easily.
The house that came with it, my other hamster that i had (RIP Fidget) got stuck in the window and if i hadnt of seen him (we were going out) Then we would of most likely died.
(But alot of cages come with the house, and its just a cheap one, i chucked it out.)
Summary:
I think this is a very good cage for its price, the levels can easily be covered like i have, and the water bottle is very good. Milo loves it and, he loves being able to climb! Im constantly rearranging the design of it because its so easy too!
I bought it from my local pet shop, i wont say its name, because i dont think im suppose too.
All in all, im very pleased with this cage. I hate tubes, and i think there a night mare to clean, im more of a traditional wire cage girl ;) Although i do have tubes in the cage, Milo doesnt use them.
