Glad to see a review of the fantasy

Just thought I'd add my experience of this cage. I have never kept a hamster in this, but we have one with 1 extension as a mouse cage. It is fine for adult mice so i would have thought that it would be ok for larger dwarf hamsters. Young mice are another thing entirely and I wouldn't put our robos in it (as they may be able to escape the bars and am not sure they could climb the tubes).

We find it really nice and easy to clean as it can be wiped over really easily and you can clean it in stages as it all comes apart. It has pretty good access and the levels are a nice size. It is expandable so can become a very big cage. It can be subdivided so you can have essentially stacked cages if you have limited floor space. And you can just use the main cage without any extensions as a good holiday home.

Only thing I don't like is that the tubes are a bit awkward to put together and the cage clips are quite soft plastic so not sure how long they will last. And I guess it is quite pricey at first (£45 for cage and 1 extension) but do personally think it's worth the money).

That's another good point, I don't really find it hard to clean as I do it in sections and it's not hard really.

I don't know how much that is..... but there's a version with a purple base on ebay {{ Here }} that may be better and cheaper for you. They do a deal on the extension kit too so you can make it a two-tier cage.

There is no currency code PCS - it doesn't exist; just thought I would save you some time looking!

It sounds more like they are offering to do a special run if you are ordering 1500 pieces!

Depends how much delivery would bring the price up to really.

You can get them from Tescos for £30 and arrange to collect instore for free!

They got some in last week I think, as I got an email telling me that they were back in stock. You can sign up so they email you on their website.

If you need it sooner rather than later though, I think Shane Todd would be your best bet. Unless you can get a used one on Ebay, they always seem to be listed.
