I got this cage as an upgrade for my cockatiel, and its perfect for her! lots of space, and it even has breeder box doors at the top as well!!! It was a bit of a challenge to put together due to the size (I did it alone and took about an hour). Overall for the price I think it is a pretty good deal, especially if you're on a budget.
At 1st it looks complicated but and instructions could be better but once you separate the materials and knows what the correct parts are you're good to go. It's definitely a two person job and it was fun putting it together with my son and girlfriend. Can't wait to see my parakeets reactions.
Scanner tried to get me to contact them that my order was lost after it left your site. I didn¡¯t answer. Your order came faster than I thought I was so happy. My only problem was your parts aren¡¯t marked and hard to figure out what goes where. Thanks.
I bought this nearly a year ago and my finches have loved being able to fly around! This cage is so huge, and fairly solid. Not the hardest thing to put together, but requires paying attention. All in all, it's worth buying if you have the space. Your birds will thank you!
This is a good cage for smaller birds such as finches. If you do remove the divider for a small bird, such as a society finch or zebra finch, you will need to block the space as it is large enough for the bird to escape. Also, it is important to check the spacing between the wires at cage corners and the nest box doors to be sure the finch cannot get a leg caught in between. I put a door edge seal on the nest box doors to help prevent an accident. The cages are light weight but sturdy enough.
We love our parakeet's new cage! It's gigantic. Great value for money. They will now have 3 times the space they did in their old cage. We bought a bunch of new toys, branches, perches, etc and had a blast decorating it. We arranged everything so that there's a long space from one end of the cage to the other (it's 5'2" long)just to fly. We haven't put them in yet, because we're waiting for our full spectrum light. We can't wait to see their little faces when they realize how much more room they have!
My only two complaints are that they don't ship to Hawaii. I had it shipped for free to my sister's in San Diego, then paid for her to use usps ($217.00 in postage, insurance and signature confirmation) to mail it to me. Even with the price of the cage and shipping to Hawaii, it was WAY bigger and much cheaper than anything you could by here. Also, that they need better instructions. We felt like idiots trying to put it together with just part numbers and illustrations. No step by step how to.
Customer service replaced a part that was missing promptly. The cage itself didn't come with great instructions, but it was simple enough for one person to put together. I purchased a package of washers to put on all of the bolts rather than try to figure out which bolts the washers were meant for since it wasn't marked on the instructions. I read some reviews prior to purchasing it and putting it together and got some very helpful tips. This cage is not predator proof. My cat can put her paw through easily and dogs could tear into it if they really wanted to. I would not recommend this for an outside cage because it's not predator proof.
I originally was going to let the birds have both sides and was really excited about the space they'd have. Unfortunately, one bird was picking on another, so I separated the pairs. If I had known I was going to separate them I'd have bought two cages by the same company and put them side by side. The only downside of this cage is covering it.
Overall I'm happy with the cage. It's a lot of cage for the money. The company was great to deal with too. :)
