| Customer Reviews: Unbelievably well designed! August 2, 2010 Diane K. Miller I bought this as a secondary cage for my maroon belly conure. We wanted something bigger as the primary cage, but unfortunately, Avian Adventures doesn't make bigger with the same bar spacing.
This is the most thoughtfully designed cage I've ever seen. It connects together so easily and solidly with no screws, making setup a breeze (good instructions too, which is a first!). The only things we had trouble with were snapping the casters in to the base, and getting the ladder on the playtop. My son got the casters in, and we removed the little plastic covers at the bottom of the ladders to get them to fit into the base. I also had to use a pliers to bend some tabs on one of the sides. That was easy, even for a weakling like me. This cage needed FAR less reshaping than any other cage I've bought.
It's AWESOME. The playtop is completely removable, just lifts out of the inset top. We have it all over the house. The front door has real hinges, not just screws attaching it to the front panel like my A&E cage. There are 3 (decorative) food dishes. Most cages this size have 2. The dishes sort of snap into place, so you have to brace your hand against the opening when taking them in and out. It's actually a good design, because when you remove them, there's not a huge space for your bird to immediately escape, as with other brands where the bowl swings out with the door, leaving a huge hole.
The bottom trays slide in and out like a DREAM!! I knew it was smooth, but when I got my larger A&E cage, where the trays are a B.E.A.S.T. to remove, I appreciated all the more the precision design of the Nina playtop.
There is a shelf on the bottom for storage, which is fantastic. Why don't they all have that?
The perches, both inside and out, are very nice, natural looking. It's amazing how much a decent perch (not a dowel rod) adds to the overall beauty.
The gold accents and casters on my already rich looking ruby cage are especially nice (some colors, including sapphire, have silver). I SO wish my little conure could handle 3/4" bar spacing, or my second cage would've been an Avian Adventures too. Also note that there are no bars spaced wider than the stated width, unlike my A&E supposedly 5/8" spacing that has bars as far as 1.25", believe it or not. (See my pictures on Flickr).
It would be nice if the seed guards were more secure, but given the perfection of everything else, that's a minor complaint.
I do think that you could remove the playtop and seed guards and actually travel with this thing, because it hooks together so easily and quickly and stores mostly flat. It's not a travel cage by any means, but if you wanted to take it apart and move it to another location, even a motel room, it wouldn't be difficult.
Check out my pictures on Flickr, also comparing it to the larger A&E:
