4ft Drop Hutch and Run Rabbit / Guinea hutches runs BB-48-DRH

Pretty good value for money
We bought this hutch to house 2 guinea pigs in June this year, and 5 months on we are really pleased with it. The hutch itself is made to a good standard - the woodwork is solid and, whilst it is self assembly, it is really easy to put together.

There is plenty of room for the animals to run around in, and they love the fact that the hutch is two story. This layout means they have loads of free space to run around on the grass in perfect safety, protected from the local cats, but also have a nice cosy interior upstairs to retire to when they want a snooze or to escape said cats! The top floor is lined with a plastic type bottom, which makes cleaning it very easy and hence the hutch is much more hygenic for the animals. There is a little enclosure to add hay to on the top floor, which the guinea pigs love nibbling from.

My only real complaint with this hutch is the ramp up and down, which is a bit flimsy. Essentially it is attached by one nail and is quite easily...
Good hutch few problems
This is a good hutch, decent size and it has some nice features however it has a few security problems. it does not have enough locks on any of the doors. especially the ground level door that a fox could easily open. also because the locks are all on the top of the doors, it give you a lot of leverage in the bottom corners of them. if you buy this i would advice investing in some other locks, they are easily fitted. i also think a way to move the staircase up and down and lock it in place would be useful. you could then lock your pet upstairs when cleaning them out. it also would mean that you could move the hutch without having to worry that the staircase will catch on grass and break.
apart from the security issue this seams like a good hutch.
Good for two guinea pigs
Very good size for my 2 four year old guinea pigs. They were scared to go down and up the ramp first so we had to attach some material to the base of the ramp and some cardboard to the sides of the ramp. After that they were fine and love having the freedom of the two floors. They can also get away from each other if they need to.
