Niteangel Vista Hamster Cage W/Oblique Opening Cage Door - MDF Aspen Small Animal Cage for Syrian Dwarf Hamsters Degus Mice or Other Similar-Sized Pets (Small - 32.9 x 17.2 x 21.1 inches, Burlywood)

So, the best thing about this cage is the size, and thats it. Its cheaply made and held together by rubber bands. The worst part is that you literally have to use tape to seal it so it doesnt leak bedding. Spend over 200 to have to tape it. Come on. The screws on the front didnt match. Better off to wait for a discount on a large fish tank. The fish tank would be heavier, but at least its sturdy and has some resell value. I regret my purchase and dont recommend it.

These cages are hands down the best cages for hamsters you can get. They stand out in an industry that doesnt seem to understand that size matters. At roughly 47x22 inches, this cage gives you 1,034 square inches of space, easily 3-5 times the space youd usually get for a hamster cage, and thats not even counting burrow space if you fill it with a good amount of bedding. This will give a far happier life to your little fur ball, hands down, and thats why I give this 5 stars. However, the boards are held together with rubber bands, and it does feel a tad flimsy. No tragedies have struck yet, and I doubt there will unless the roof caves in, or someone decides to handle it in a less than lovingly tender way it deserves, but it is my first impression. The instructions are clear, everything was labeled and packaged with care, and everything fit all together. This brand has never failed me in cages or accessories and this cage is absolutely worth the buy unless you live on a fault line.

I love the volume of this enclosure. Not only is the floor space well above the minimum, but the space and depth inside is so good for providing your hamster with a deep compacted variety of bedding and herbs. Other Niteangel products fit snug inside, like the chamber hides and tunnel watch boxes. A very large wheel fits well on the side, and the rest can just be packed with all that bedding that hamsters need. Adding sprays and enriching toys on top of all of this makes for the perfect enclosure for a hamster. I was able to put this together myself, it came with a sheet of instructions and supplies. Gloves, paper tape, nails & a tool to install them, acrylic sheets, and a silicone strip to prevent the lid from chipping the top of the enclosure. There was no need to use other supplies because this came with everything you need to build it. It took a while for one person, but it can be done. The enclosures ventilation is also good, it never becomes too hot or too cold inside. You can also hang chew toys from the ventilation slits on the top of the enclosure just fine. If I ever got a second hamster, I would not hesitate to buy a second of this one!

The minimum recommended size cage for hamsters (any species) is 450in² (1143cm) The 32.9x17.2x21.1 cage sq inch is 565.92in² (1437.4cm) The 40.7x22.7x22.9 cage sq inch is 931.68in² (2366.4cm) Which is x2 the recommended size. The 47.1x22.7x26.9 cage sq inch is 1068.48in² (2713.9cm) Which is x2.37 the recommended size. There is no Maximum recommended size, the bigger the happier. With the two larger cages you could split the cage in half and have two hamsters in one box. This enclosure allows for more than 3 inches of substrate (below-recommended minimum) Personal experience: My cage was very quick to set up with only a few broken bands. they gave me around 8 or so extra bands so it was no worry. One thing to keep in mind is the fact they use acrylic for the side panels which means if you use paper bedding you WILL have static issues. (however, this means you can remove some dust from the bedding by wiping down the sides) Assembly/ Setup: This tank is very easy to assemble. I put mine together quietly and quickly. If you are movement restricted I can see this being a little hard but doable by yourself or with some help. In the set up they gave you paper tape to waterproof the edges of the tank. This of course will not actually be waterproof, resists water at best. I do recommend putting the tape in as it will stop bedding and possibly little fingers from slipping in the cracks. tl;dr this is the best cage by size, assembly, and visibility I can find for a decent price on the market.

So much space. Pretty sturdy, I suggest two people for fastest and easiest assembly. Easy to put together. Had some reservations about the silicone bands but they went on fine and I’ve had no problems. If there’s a gap between the lid and the front wall you. An adjust the hinges up top and it will drop down to close the gap. Also, let it settle. Mine seals perfectly against the silicone protector.

pretty easy to put together overall! i love how much room it has to offer for my hamster as well. i’ve had a few cages by now and this one’s my favorite!

We had a minimum size hamster cage (about 450 sq in) but it wasnt deep enough for burrowing or for a really big wheel, and our long haired Syrian hamster is one lively little guy who needed more room to roam - I saw this cage, the Niteangel Vista, and it was just what we were looking for. It looks like a really nice piece of furniture; very attractive, was packed incredibly well, and was super easy to assemble. Our hamster loves it!

was so happy to find a perfect hamster cage with the right square inches! i got the medium for my single female dwarf and she is living the life! assembly was pretty straight forward but you might need two sets of hands! what it’s made out of is perfect for cleaning as nothing soaks into it. ventilation seems to be perfectly fine!

The cage is very easy to assemble, sturdy, big enough, and it has a fantastic and modern design. I can see my dwarf hamster from any angle. It also has good ventilation and I love the way the door opens, really practical. I have bought other products from Niteangel and they are all excellent. I highly recommend this cage and the Niteangel company!!!

This cage is big and spacious but how do u prevent ur hamster from escaping he bites the tape that is holding the side so litter can’t get out. I’m thinking of returning it $250.00 and u still have to worry about ur hamster getting out. Any advice?
