Cheap soft wood, falls apart

I used to think building ikea furniture was hard but this is a new level of difficulty. there’s very few instructions, the wood breaks so easily that some came broken, the wood is so soft that if your small animal pees on it, it’s gonna absorb right in. The only good thing was how easy it was to get a refund. I wouldn’t recommend this unless you’re experienced with difficult builds/ wood
the only good thing about this is that the design is nice, but a lot of the pieces were broken. the sidewalls were you put the first on second deck were not attached, there were multiple cracks in the walls and pieces of the bridges, the second deck had a huge crack along the outer edge to where it would bend and potentially break off if a pound or two where applied. poor quality control especially for the price.
I made the biggest mistake of not listening to the negative reviews about this cage on Amazon. The quality is terrible. There are splinters on every piece of wood. The pieces that were supposed to be pre-connected (by staples) fell apart. Please do yourself a favor, save your money and time and don’t buy this product.
This cage has plenty of room for your little fur friend. I only noticed a few problems. One being that the door that pulls open in the front had a slight gap in between it and the bottom of the cage, but I fixed it by nailing two pieces of wood under the part that slides out at the bottom of the cage. Also one of the side pieces was broken at the top but a few nails fixed that problem. As for the houses, I believe tiny nails would have worked better than screws, because the wood kept cracking. Other than that, the building part of it wasn¡¯t too hard and it was pretty self explanatory. My Syrian boy sure does love his new home! It is a little pricey but it¡¯s well worth it once you put it all together.
Made it within 2 hours using a butter knife and scissors because I didn't have a drill or screwdriver but highly suggest using those for better results. My dwarf hamster loves his new home. Didn't realize how huge it is but it's not an issue the more space the better tbh. Its width is about the same as a queen bed (as you can see in my pictures). Don't cheap out if you own a pet or else don't buy a pet. Worth the money.
Great product, my daughter's hamster is just loving it. We had to drill a hole in one of the walls for his water bottle but that's not a big deal. I would buy it again!
