Exactly the Rotastak experience I remember from my ChildhoodDepending on Rotastak for my small animals housing needs has always been a safe bet. I was worried about other reviewers' comments about things falling apart and needing to resort to sticky tape, but curious and confident that I had used all of these products in my early years, I was sure that for my children, I could get it together.
It is clear for me, that the bendy tubes in the picture are all of the others' problems due to being a little fiddly and requiring patience in routing design and alignment of the upper and lower housing units to get a good fit, if you try to force it - tada! the parts pop apart and clatter to the table top, mocking your efforts. Slow down, rotate each tube in relation to the next and like a wriggling snake, you can find the alignment that works.
Maybe Rotastak could expand the instructions to help out the less dextrous with some handy hints, but after all, it went together fine, it's secure and the hampy loves it. Good work!
Great gerbil homeI purchased this to replace a gerbilarium which shot sawdust everywhere.
Although a little tricky at first to assemble the rotastak looks great and the 3 gerbils love it. They spend most of their time in the wheel. It gets easier to put together once you have cleaned it and know where the bits go.
Overall a really good product.
rotastak small pet enclosure(cage)this is a very good starter cage and the fact that you can add a lot of accessories
is a huge plus i do have a few problems with it:
*this review is for my syrian hamster*
1)the wheel is a bit small and there is no alternative wheel on the market
2)the tubes going to the top tier are in 2 parts and can split
3)instructions are not very accurate
other than that this is the best cage for the price
