P@H "Large" Wire Hamster Cage Review
Size: 59cmx38cmx30cm (lxwxh)

PROS
• Quite sturdy
• Nice colours
• Comes with bedding and accessories
• Lightweight
• Fairly cheap compared to cages like Crittertrails

CONS
• Too small for permanent living
• Wheel supplied is too small for all species of hamster except maybe some very small Robos
• Accessories flimsy and small
• Tubes are quite unstable
• Clips aren't very strong - my sister's hamster managed to pop them open quite easily

Please note that this cage is too small for permanent housing of any species of hamster - my sisters' Syrian was okay in it only until she was about 3 months old. For the price it isn't that great value either, you can get an Alaska which is bigger for around the same price on Zooplus. Although it's not suitable for a permanent home and will be outgrown quite quickly, it makes a great temporary/travel/hospital cage!
