The Duna Multy is also a popular tank style cage for a dwarf hamster and about the same price as the Alaska

No issues with bar spacing either. With the Alaska you do get a bit more floorspace, but it would need setting up carefully with levels etc to avoid fall risks, which could end up costing more as well, buying extra shelves and so on - but then you would have extra enrichment. The Duna multy has the advantage of being able to have deeper substrate for tunneling though. Another option is the Kerry Terrarium at Zooplus but that is more expensive - about £69.

Duna Multy (only place I know that sells it at a reasonable price. Delivery is plus £2.95 but they do next day delivery usually). It comes in different colours - red, blue and brown - don't think you get a choice though, but you could try adding a note on an order for a particular colour! This is the standard Duna Multy 71cm wide - not to be confused with the smaller mini duna.

Cage Duna Multy

Amazon also sell the maxi duna multy which is a 100cm version so lots of floorspace for enrichment and deep substrate, as it's a bit taller as well. But it's quite expensive.

This is the kerry Terrarium from Zooplus

Hamster Cages: great selection at zooplus: Small Pet Terrarium Kerry

All of those have 7mm bar spacing on the lids, the Alaska has 1cm bar spacing but as Cypher says, some people do use it for dwarf hamsters.
