NiteangelStacker Series Hamster Cage - Stackable & Large Glass Terrarium (ca. 558 Sq in) for Hamster Gerbils Mice Degus or Other Small-Sized Pets

I bought two of these cages to join together. To do this you need to also buy a splicing kit and if you buy wheels you also need to buy the extra centre wheels. The whole package is quite expensive but there does not seem any other version or competition in the UK.Both of the cages arrived without the locking catches for the acrylic doors. These are not listed as an item on the instructions for the build, although the hinges are. Amazon offered to refund the money if I returned the cages but an email to [email protected] resulted in the parts being sent out and arriving 6 days later.The cages are not as easy to assemble as they look and it took about 3 hours. All the parts are supplied including screw drivers and gloves to handle the glass.The completed cages are very sturdy and look like they will last a long time. The base section is a strong plastic. Access through the acrylic door is easy if you want to put items in the cage, change water, add food etc. It's also easy to get entry through the top bars, which are hinged and also provide ventilation. These are a bit noisy to open.There is a lot of space in the two cages which allows our hamster to move around and have a number of hideouts, features, wheel and sand bath. As the cage is mostly glass it could get hot in direct sunlight.The extra hassle of building the cage and waiting for the parts to be supplied was worth it as the cages are so good.

The media could not be loaded. so easy to put together, have to be careful sliding the glass in though as it would break easily. looks really nice my hamster loves it ! my hamster burrows in her cage and its so sweet watching her do it. this cage allows for enough bedding for a hamster to do so which is great.

I had to return as there was a small flaw on the glass. This is a wonderful cage, beautifully made, sturdy, attractive. It is, however, too small - recommended size for a syrian is 100 x 50. I do wish they made this cage larger as it's probably the nicest cage on the market. I believe looking at the instructions they might be making an extension for this cage but I believe it is not on the market yet. I would repurchase if they did. Very well packaged and all materials of the very highest quality.

Cage is easy to assemble. Took me around 15/20mins by myself. Really like that the sides are glass.It comes with all you need to build - screws, screwdriver, gloves to handle glass etc.I do like Niteangel products though It is on the pricey side! But I'm stacking and splicing so for me it's worth it.

I needed an enclosure in a hurry due to having to separate my mice and decided to try this as it met my requirements. However if you are looking for a hamster enclosure in the UK this one is expensive and does not met the recommended size.I will start with the good points about the enclosure:It was well packaged and even though the box was slightly bashed none of the parts for the enclosure were damaged.When built this is a nice sturdy looking enclosure.It allows for 10 + inches of bedding.It has a front opening door as well as a lid.The front door has a lip around the outside so it has no spaces.The bars on the lid are close together and do not flex so I do not think even my mice will be making an escape bid.The bars on the lid and middle support bar come off separately so you do not need to leave enough space above the enclosure for the lid to fully open.I do not think I would go for this enclosure in the future for the following reasons.The main reason is it is a nightmare to build and fit together properly - I probably spent about 3 or 4 hours trying to get everything to fit including taking the supports off multiple times and turning them different ways but nothing worked. I have built various enclosures including stacker ones before so have a general idea of how they should fit together.It also does not meet the new recommended minimum sized enclosure for a hamster in the UK which is 100 cm x 50 cm.The base is hard plastic, the supports are hard plastic and the acrylic is not very thick. Also there is a plastic rim that runs around all the supports which I think is meant to stop chewing but if you have a hamster which is a chewer this may be a problem.The white base also seems to mark quite easily.If looking for a hamster or mouse enclosure in the UK you can get one that is at least 100cm by 50cm for less than this one.

Great enclosure, quality materials with all tools required for assembly (gloves to handle glass panes, screwdriver etc). Very happy with quality, it’s early days but we have created our first natural habitat. Couldn’t find anything better. Have accessorised the enclosure with other nigeangel products, expensive for uk purchase but quality superior to similar priced copies. Great company to deal with as we had wrong hinges sent but very quickly rectified, 5***

A hamster should have a minimum enclosure of 100cm x 50cm x 50cm, this cage is only 80cm.

This is a nice cage, my hammy loves it so far. However I can’t bring myself to give more than 2 stars as I was missing parts for the door on the front :/ I was missing the hooks for the door therefore the door couldn’t stay shut. Luckily my boyfriend came up with a DIY version so I could move my hammy in to his new cage but still very annoying as with this DIY version we came up with we can’t open and close the door. I wish I just ordered the version without the front door on the front to be honest as the 2 on top are very nice a big.I did contact Amazon customer service but they weren’t really much help, just told me to return it. Niteangel are supposed to be contacting me by email in a few days so hopefully they are of help as I don’t want to have to return it and wait for a new one, I’d rather they just send me the missing parts.

This is a great product. Overall it was pretty easy to assemble and is sturdy and as escape proof as an enclosure gets. My hamster Zuko (hybrid dwarf) loves it and is more active now because of the extra space and enrichment. Just make sure that you get two and put them together as one is too small and wont be able to fit enough enrichment. The wheels to put two together are sold separately which I wish I knew before I bought it and put the whole thing together but honestly its so heavy that it pushes together safely. The only negative thing about it is that one of the plastic screws to open up the front window of one of the enclosures is super jammed and hard to turn. I have tried re-assembling it and it makes no difference so I think its an alignment issue as the other window is fine and easy to open. But this doesn't really bother me since I open up the top to clean anyway but it could be a problem for you if you have multiple hamsters and are stacking them. Overall, its a great product and provides a lot of space for enrichment for your hamster and although its expensive, if you're not crafty like me, it is a great way to easily assemble a large cage for your hamster and is worth the money.

My hammy iris has been living in a 20 gal aquarium for a little over 2 years. When this arrived at my doorstep - I put it together right away!!!! My cats and fish have gotten upgrades to their living spaces and it was time for me to invest in her. It’s so hard to find a decent hamster cage that isn’t ridiculously small or made out of wood. I have used niteangel accessories before and they have always been high quality. This cage surpassed all expectations. It’s huge. Seems like it will be relatively easy to clean. (Easier than wood). I have already bought additional things for her home that will allow her to explore more and be mentally stimulated. She deserved the enrichment. I did not buy the cage with the front door because the cabinet she is on is short enough for me to reach. This is worth the price in my opinion. Her world doubled and I can already see a change in her demeanor. :)***UPDATE*** This cage is amazing. It fits all sorts of fun activities!!!!! I can add like an entire village of tiny homes in here while still adding a running wheel and sand shower spot. She loves it. It’s super easy to clean and sturdy. I love that it can be stackable. I’m glad I didn’t spend the extra money getting the little front door. This is so fool proof. I’m so excited I found this. You won’t be disappointed.

One of the biggest issues in the small pet community is lack of education around healthy and happy enclosures for small pets especially hamsters. Enclosures that don’t provide your hamster with a healthy and happy enclosure leads to multiple health issues and behavioral problems. Niteangel as a brand is really incredible with manufacturing really impeccable products for hamster care. One of the biggest signs that this company really cares about providing hamsters with appropriate happy and healthy enclosures is that they don’t sell unsafe small sized hamster wheels. This enclosure is apart of their expandable and stackable series, which I highly recommend! One thing I would really love to see is these enclosures and all of their product line in every single local pet store in the US. Assembly of this enclosure was really easy to do and they provide one of the best included tool kits that I have ever seen. The material used really adds to the A+ sturdiness & high quality of this enclosure that others don’t provide. The enclosure is on the heavy side for weight due to the heavy duty materials used, but I personally love enclosures that are more heavy because it does lead to better quality in this case. Both of her hamsters love this enclosure! I do recommend though to do a minimum of two of these enclosures connected to together because one enclosure is on the smaller end of the recommended square inches and it is a little hard to setup with everything. Even if you only purchase one of these to start at least it will be significantly better than all of the other enclosures on the market, a single is a really good temporary set-up until finances provide enough to purchase a second one, and the huge bonus factor is when you purchase another enclosure to expand you’re not wasting any money. The hamster community often wastes a lot of finances because they keep upgrading/replacing their enclosures when they realize that their enclosure is not right for their hamster do to size, lack of quality, etc. This enclosure does allow you to expand either from the sides or the back. However, I do wish that there would be an included educational hamster pamphlet provided with the enclosure to provide education to hamster owners for setup. I have unfortunately seen some very concerning hamster set-ups even in this enclosure (example: less than 6 inches of packed hamster safe bedding, unsafe hamster wheels and below the minimum 10 inch, no hides, no enrichment, etc.Now I do want to note why I only gave this enclosure a four star and it is because there could be some improvements. If everyone is always just giving an enclosure a five star when there is room for improvement it doesn’t provide adequate information to the manufacturer to make improvements.1. I would love niteangel to expand on their enclosure size to include a small version and a large. This current model would be really good to be a starting point for their small enclosure, but I would love to see the height of the enclosure increase by a minimum of 10 inches. This would allow for the front panel opening to move higher up to increase the amount of bedding, possibly a larger door, and would allow more space at the top of the enclosure to accommodate larger items. The enclosure set up that I have with the purple hide house has a maze on double stilts for a Syrian hamster to have more bedding, but this led to less space at the top of the enclosure where I can’t put a water bottle along with the water bowl. It would be a super bonus if we can have a minimum of 12-14 inches of space below the front door panel opening for bedding. Along with the height increase I would also recommend increasing the width measurement by a minimum of 6 inches, but 10 inch would be better. The reason being that it is a little tight when trying to configure all of the accessories inside the enclosure this is really noticed when you go with the larger accessories for a Syrian hamster. Since the height and width increase would be a standard increase across to all of the enclosures the only thing that would need to be increased to be considered a large enclosure would be the length. I personally would recommend that the large enclosure length start at 50x60 inches or larger. Due to the incredible feature of expanding this enclosure people will be able to expand their enclosure with either the large or small option easily to the left or right. The only drawback is you won’t be able to expand on the backside of the enclosure unless you get the same size, but this may not be an issue. It may not even be something done often with that 10 inch increase in the width that I recommend, but I would not take this feature away.2. Create a starter accessory kit for Syrian and dwarf hamsters that could be included with the purchase of enclosure for a double discount. A discount just for it being a starter kit and the bonus of a discount if purchased with an enclosure. For the Syrian starter kit I would recommend including the 12 inch super silent wheel, wheel meter, large sand bath, a variety of ladders, water bowl, water bottle, food dish, 1 to 3 platforms, stilts + expanding stilts, large maze, and small maze/hide. For the dwarf hamster starter kit I would recommend all the same things, but with a 10 inch super silent wheel instead of the 12 inch. This would help with providing a really good foundation to the education piece of proper hamster cared that is happy and healthy. This also simplifies the process a lot more making it easier for people to give proper care for a hamster because it’s more simplified.3. Bonus: For the people who may want to expand their enclosures, but only do a small expansion I would recommend creating a small expansion kit that only goes left or right by 10-12 inches. I also would not take the current enclosure off the market (just decrease the price) unless there is an option for a significant upgrade discount.4. I would also recommend creating an enrichment starter kit (dwarf and Syrian version), which would just include all of your enrichment items like the sprays, snacks, walnuts, wood carrots, variety of different digging substrates, dig box, sand, tunnels, toys, chews, flower mix, etc. Which I recommend the same bundle discount and if purchased with an enclosure a secondary discount.5. The last thing that I would recommend is a table/cabinet that is custom sized for these enclosures to fit on that is easily expandable as well. Having storage would be a really huge bonus to be able to store all of the hamster needs close by.I personally really love this brand of hamster products and I highly recommend them. They’re the only manufacture company that I have found that really provides the best items with a full scope of meeting almost all of your hamster needs. I would absolutely love to see them in every single local pet store, so that people can receive the first initial education about hamster care before they even purchase a hamster. It is pretty traumatic, especially for a child to witness a hamster whom has health and behavioral issues due to miseducation around the necessity of proper hamster care. Keep up the amazing work niteangel and keep expanding on your brand by continuing to bring in amazing accessories for the enclosures and enclosures in general.

Love the quality, I haven't assembled mine yet though because I bought 2 of these to connect side by side without knowing that it requires a splice kit to do so. I did reach out to niteangel, as I could not find a splice kit on their website. I was informed that they wouldnt be available in the U.S until sometime in October. I was pretty disappointed when I found that out, they did not mention needing a splice kit in the listing. I will say niteangel customer support was great in responding to my email quickly with info including pictures of what I would need once it does reach the shelves . I have decided that this cage is worth the wait as it is great quality and looks easy to assemble . They even sent a screw driver with the package to aid in assembly. If you are getting this cage for a syrian just be aware that one of these alone will not be big enough. Yes there are cheaper options out there, but this is much lighter than an aquarium and willbe easier to clean than wood options.

First, I just have to say that I really like the cage and I know my hamster will too, once he gets to move in.I’ve spent several weeks waiting to set up this cage while waiting for all of the Niteangel accessories I also ordered to arrive. After a snow storm in the southeast and several delays I’ve received the vast majority are finally arrived.With much anticipation I sat my 66 year old self on the floor and unpacked the cage. Two hours later, as I was preparing to install the front door I realized that the three round locking mechanizes were not there.In utter disappointment, and another hour later I was able to crawl over to the coffee table and climb it to get my hips to unlock. I made my way to my little guys room and let him know he wouldn’t be moving tonight as planned. I hate making promises to him that I can’t keep so I’m giving him banana to soften the blow.Seriously, I’m not happy with this situation but have heard, Niteangel’ customer service is top notch. I hope this will be rectified quickly.
