Let me start by saying I love this cage even though it does have flaws. I am using it to house my two female rats. I've waited a month to write my review because that is plenty of time for my mischievous girls to poke around every square inch looking for their great escape as well as nibble every bar to find any weak spots. When I got the cage I was very nervous because the bars are extremely flimsy and a few were bent out of place. As I set it up I noticed it doesn't line up very well and there were some gaps that seemed pretty large to me. I hadn't picked up my two girls yet so I wasn't sure if these gaps would be large enough to escape and I was worried that they would be able to push the bars and escape. Well I bent the bars back into place and attached a small clip to the gate where the largest gap is. I keep that clip on always because they can definitely fit through that space with little effort. Fast forward a month later, I haven't had a single successful escape effort. They haven't even been able to open the doors by themselves, which was a problem with my previous cage and ratties.Now for the cage itself. The levels were the same cheap metal and they were both bent out of shape, I bent them back and haven't had an issue with them. My ratties don't like the ramps and kept throwing them into the bottom of the cage so I decided to take them out and free up a little more space for their toys. The levels aren't very high and my rats just bounce from level to level.The cage isn't very large although it does take up more than its fair share of my bedroom. Because of its smaller size my rats get bored fairly quickly and start chewing the bars. Im worried that with enough time and effort they may be able to gnaw through the bars with their mega chompers, so far though they havent even made a dent in the paint. To help with the chewing I fill their cage with dollar store bins, wood chews, and cardboard box toys that I make. The cage is just barely large enough for it and I want to get them a bigger cage in the future, but this is just about the perfect starter cage for them. I change out their toys every time I clean the cage so it's a little different area to explore each time. Cleaning the cage is very easy with the pull out tray I just pull out the tray, vacuum up the litter, give it a quick wipe down and we're good to go. I took pictures without any fleece in the cage so you can get a picture of what the levels and floor look like. Overall I am very pleased with this purchase and I think it's a great little cage even though the materials are cheap and you might have to readjust some things to make it work for you, it's definitely worth the price, and my girls love it.

First things first, this isn't going to be your "dream cage"; it's going to have the unavoidable flaws associated with this level of quality, such as slightly bent wires, edges that don't match up perfectly, or some small areas that didn't get fully coated with enamel. Getting these manufacturing defects out of the way, it is a decently sized cage for 2-3 rats tops (larger size ordered, 30 in x 18 in x 24 in). I would not recommend this for many of the other animals listed above (bar spacing way too large to hold mice, ramps not stable for larger pets like guinea pigs or rabbits), but for the baby rats I adopted, this is perfect. Also, it is much cheaper than other cages which are the same size, but I would recommend getting a larger cage in the future.It doesn't come with instructions but is very simple to figure out, had it set up in about 15 minutes. Make sure to secure gaps with zip ties like other reviews have suggested. Another great bonus is that this cage will pack flat if you need to store or travel with it. The door size is alright, it can be a little tricky installing the shelves, but it has been easy for cleaning. It doesn't have a very deep base, unfortunately, but it could be possible to find a closely sized cement mixing tub.All in all, great alternative to more expensive cages which can experience similar flaws, and can allow you time to afford larger set up. I've been very satisfied with this cage.

Perfect for just 2 rats! I had to cut the bottom piece of the cage so there was no wiring on the rats feet but it was not a problem! Good size, Sturdy, easy to assemble, Looks great, and it didn’t get chewed through.

It’s okay. It came all bent up and we had to shove things in holes that our rat could easily fit through. The slide out tray is useful as well but also came bent. Overall it’s a good cheap alternative for a cage.

Love this cage. This is the second one I've purchased for my rats. The first one I purchased was for my first rat, 3 years ago, only reason I had to replace it was because I had a chewer in there and he managed to strip the coating after a year or so, which is great considering the damage chewy rats can do. This time I got the wider version as I needed to house 3 males, it's perfect for them. Spacious for toys and huts and space pods galore.Love that this cage comes apart for cleaning, and folds down compactly to be stored in our small apartment with ease. A tiny bit wobbly, but it holds together and none of my rats over the years have escaped. If you want to be extra sure you can always zip tie some of the edges together.Overall I would recommend this cage to anyone with small pets. Only suggestion I might have is to remove the bottom grate, possibly cover the levels with fabric or tile of some kind, as the bare bars can sometimes create issues with their feet.Great cage for the price ðŸ‘

This small animal cage was super easy to put together and perfect for pet rats or similar sized animals. The spaces arent too wide and there is plenty of room for 1 or 2 rats max. I wouldn't use for mice or dwarf hamsters tho as their lil legs would go thru the mesh wire floor.

Returned this cage because my rats can easily escape from it. There are fairly large gaps in between the door and the side of the cage. My rats can also slide the plastic bottom over and squeeze right out. Would not recommend this
