I have to say I quite like this cage and it’s the biggest one I’ve found which has narrow enough bar spacing for roborovskis. It’s an excellent stand-alone cage, but can also be used as a base cage to add extra bits on.
It also comes with a “sippy” water bottle, a food bowl and house (which is being used as a sand bath in mine)

Pros:
Good size – it’s the biggest dwarf hamster cage I’ve been able to find. Also big enough for a Syrian so if you wanted to use it for one after your robos have gone it’d save you having to buy another cage.
Scope for expansion - it has “holes” at the front and back to enable you to add extra things or connect it to other cages or a “burrowing tank”, thus giving your hamster(s) a bit more room to roam. I’ll definitely be getting extras to add on at a later date.
The end caps – which are used to cover the holes where you’d attach extra tubing – are really easy to fit, which is a nice change from my Savic Hamster Heaven as they were quite stiff and difficult to both fit and take apart.
Compatable with both Ferplast and Savic tubing – so you can connect it to both types of cages and accessories, which is very handy!
Light – the cage itself barely weighs anything… before I fill it with substrate and toys that is.
Deep base – v handy if, like me, you like to give them lots of substrate and bury their tubing and some boxes to give them extra space.
Also, being a cage, it has bars for the hammies to climb on and for you to hang things on or perhaps attach some homemade shelves (I’ll be doing that at a later date). This is opposed to tanks, bin cages and the “Duna” type enclosures. It also provides much more ventilation than those types which is important, especially in the summer months.
Cons:
To be honest there aren’t many cons to this cage, only a few extra things I’d quite like from a cage:
Could be bigger - Although, as I’ve said, it’s the biggest base cage I’ve been able to find, it’s still not quite as big as I’d really like it to be.
Access – only one small door at the top of the cage. It’d be better if there was a larger door for removing beds n toys to clean in between full cage cleans.
It could do with a couple of handles on each end to make moving it around easier, which would be especially handy for younger folk.
Neutral Points:
Doesn’t have lots of accessories. This, for me, is a plus point as I already have masses of accessories so the lack of them is good in that it keeps the cost down of the actual cage. However, if you’re just starting out, it would be good if it had a few toys and tubes etc. It’d also benefit from having a shelf or two added for extra space. But as I’ve said it’s easy enough to make your own.
Ferplast KIOS dwarf hamster cage
Another nice cage ruined by the piddly door!!! 
Not sure if that`s before or after the coupon code discount though....
I wanted to attach an old charity shop habitrail ovo to my ferplast cage last year and ended up taping a habitrail tube to a Ferplast tube, it held together fine with lots of tape but it was anoying to clean.
