I can't offer any suggestions for cages I'm afraid but I will just add:

Unless you add it on yourself, there is not enough ventilation in Vivariums for hamsters! x

I was going to make a mesh lid to add more ventilation

To be honest, I don't think its worth doing all of that. You might as well just buy a cage that requires little modification, if any!
I did not see plastic cages in your thread starter, but here are some plastic cages that I love and many other members do as well!

The 2 main series in the plastic cage range are the Duna and the ZooZone cages. The ZooZone cages are cheaper, but need to be meshed. On the other hand the Duna cages are more expensive(the 72cm one is only a few pounds more) but don't require meshing..

ZooZone 1(72cm x 46cm):

Hope I Helped! x

Terrariums can have a lot of ventilation but it really depends on the design, the one my syrian has comes with a mesh lid and four side vents (metal). It was very pricey though and cost me about £90 (he cannot be put in plastic cages/bar cages due to his chewing, he wrecked a zoozone!). I'd say a good place to look is gumtree but just be safe when doing so and don't go alone to pick anything up.
