This is a great cage for smaller birds. I have a cockatiel in need of a friend as his mate passed from being eggbound. Currently he's using a bird DVD to interact with, but it's obvious he misses his live feathered friend. He has a huge cage on rollers and I had such a mess from seed that I ended up layering the sheer gauzy wraparounds to reduce the mess. It worked, but what a chore to move them up and down whenever I need to hang millet or clean dishes. Now that I'm getting him two little friends, I needed a cage for them so his territory wasn't invaded, and this cage was perfect!!! The two glass walls completely eliminate the vast majority of seed messes. It snapped together very easily. The size is quite ample, especially since I'm putting it on top of a dresser drawer and it fits like a glove. The bottom drawer is yet another blessing for sliding out to clean. I feel my two parakeets will be absolutely happier than a pig in poo with this cage. I added a swing, a really nice play unravel mat full of paper puzzles and goodies, and two additional feeding cups that I was able to hang inside on the wire. The extra cups allow me to prepare their cooked treats yet they can easily be removed for cleaning. Add the two covered dishes for their dry feed and water that came with the cage, and we have plenty of additional cups for food and water. I feel the wire walls are more than adequate for small birds. They sure won't bite their way through them, and they are evenly spaced and properly aligned. The spacing is perfect for smaller birds as well. The top that lifts up and stays open is a big bonus and will encourage me to get those little guys people friendly like my cockatiel. It looks very nice, is well made, and the white was a big plus! It blends so nicely with the room walls and the dresser compared to the cockatiel's black wired cage. This cage appears very clean and tidy. I'm able to move the feed cups, toys, etc. about without a problem. And those little guys will love their view of the great outdoors through the window behind them. Really nice, and well worth the price as everything was made super simple and user friendly. To me, the ease of putting it together made the purchase worthwhile. I will definitely buy another if I opt to expand my bird room. This cage has a nice touch of class and enough uniqueness that it appears custom designed and made. It's so nice to break away from the routine cages and be a little different for a change! Buy it. You won't regret it!
