Niteangel Hamster Play Wooden Platform for Dwarf Syrian Hamsters Gerbils Mice Degus or Other Small Pets (Rectange - 7 Height, White)

I have several of these platforms between our two hamster cages. I love the height, because it adds an extra layer to the cage. I also love how sturdy they are. Niteangel has amazing products. We have lots of decorations between the two cages, but I always come back to Niteangel due to the high quality of the products.

Only thing I didn’t like was having to wood glue the stilts but otherwise it’s sturdy!

This has created a perfect burrowing and second flooring to my hamsters 75 gallon tank. I pack the bedding under the platform so she has access to burrow in and create a den.

Very nice to look at, and it hasnt stained! Pipsqueak loves to smear her blueberries all over the place, and even if the stains are left for several days, they always wash off easily. Its not very sturdy though because the legs dont actually screw on. I ended up taking a dab of super glue to each leg and its much sturdier now that the legs are permanently on.

It fits in my hamster bin perfectly. Easy to clean. But when I received it I wasn’t sure what the paper tape was for that was in the box. The legs wouldn’t stay in so I wrapped them with paper tape then stuck them in. Then one of the legs came apart and I had to get some wood glue and glue it back together. But after it is perfect.

The product is VERY sturdy when you apply the masking tape that comes with it. I taped one layer around each dowel peg that protrudes from the shelf of the platform and then the legs slide very snuggly onto the dowel, no shaking, no slipping. My platforms arrived in Feb 2022 and maybe this was a new element they added after all of the negative feedback on sturdiness? *ONLY NEGATIVE: the 11in height is rather dangerous for all hammies when left out in open air. Sure, if you have 10in of bedding for burrowing underneath, then wonderful it is safe! But otherwise this height is just too high and your hammie risks falling (even Syrians!).

My hamster LOVED this product. He loved being able to get up high and look around. I highly recommend gluing popsicle sticks or something along the sides as a border because it is a little slippery and your ham can/will fall off if not careful. Gave it a 4 star due to the safety and because the legs do not stay on. If you lift this item up one or two legs will not follow and youll have to reattach. Its really not that big of a deal, just a tad annoying. Unfortunately my hamster passed away on christmas eve (NOT BECAUSE OF THIS ITEM!!!!) so he cant enjoy it anymore but if he were still here hed tell you to get this for your ham. Side note: if youre getting one of their ladders that attach to this I recommend the LARGE. Medium was too short.

I was able to fit both food dishes, his water bottle, and sand bath on this platform!

The leg broke during assembly.

I got this platform for my mice since they enjoy having different levels. Its very easy to clean and does its job. I will say its difficult to take in and out of the cage due to the legs falling off. Its sturdy enough for my mice to walk on but if I touch it its obviously unstable. I would be cautious buying this for larger hamsters.
