You are right the base of the Barney and Alexander are quite thin and flimsy - which is fine if your hamster doesn't chew it! The Maxi Duna costs more though. You can sometimes find a 3 foot second hand fish tank on ebay quite cheap, but sounds like you need something quickly. £65 is a good price for the Kerry.
Would a 12inch wheel fit in the Kerry do you think?

I think most hamster owners have had this problem at one time or another- I had to attach a log bridge on the inside once as they can get obsessed with one area!
Yeah I've had a look and I'll definitely get her some more chew toys, I'm not over concerned about the bar chewing because I'll be getting her glass tank soon but I'm a bit worried about her breaking through the base. She's huge!
