BUCATSTATE Hamster Cage Metal 2.0 - Small Animal Habitats Large Stackable with Deep Burrow Easy Install 100L X 50W X 52.5H CM for Dwarf Syrian Hamster, Gerbil, Rats (White)

Bought two of these. And think they're great in my opinion. Size is fantastic, panels are thick enough, plenty of ventilation on the sizes. Top and bottom is made of metal, top has lots of ventilation as well, I don't see how a hamster would be able to get purchase to chew anywhere and nothing to rattle to make noise. Lid has a rubber ledge cushion(at least that's what I thought it was as it's not mentioned in the instructions, well not that i saw, so I guessed its use). I bought the castors seperate, and lots of accessories(wheels, baths, ledges, bottles, mushrooms) from this company on Amazon. The second cage I put together had a cracked back panel. Contacted CS and they sent me a new back panel that took 3 days to arrive, quick and helpful indeed, they just don't operate weekends, so had to wait from Saturday to Monday for them to get my message. But it was fast delivery for sure. Had a hamster chew through the door hinge of a PawHut... never buying that brand again. I don't think I'll ever consider buying another brand of cage now. EDIT: I now have three of these wonderful cages(thats how great they are). They stack really well and are really sturdy. So easy to put togther and my hamsters just LOVE the space. I love the quality and haven't had any problems with these cages, theyre just great. If you do look to stack 3, like I have, buy the offical stacking accessories and I'm sure you wont have a problem. The screws are longer to fix them together and I can still wheel them around the room fine, I'm just careful and manuver them from the bottom using manual handling techniques. I have 6 inches of bedding which is more then enough for my russian dwarfs, they have created tunnels for their food stashes everywhere. If you have kids and you let them climb on the cages, its not the Bucatstates fault at all, but your own. Hamsters are not for kids and are not a toy, I'll never understand why people buy fradgile little hamsters for destructive, temperamental children, they can't look after the cages never mind the little lives running around inside them. Also, I noted in some reviews that people say the floors fall out and the sides bulge...I don't know why people are saying this as I've not had these problems at all... if you don't compact and force bedding down or misuse the cages they are just great. Their customer service is great, I can't fault them at all. So helpful, understanding, kind and polite. A pleasure to deal with.

This is the only hamster cage I will ever use, I can’t recommend it enough! There is nothing else better. I had been wanting a hamster for a while but struggled to find the right cage that met all the hamster requirements and my personal aesthetic. I wanted a clear and metal cage but felt an aquarium was too heavy, too expensive and lacked the right ventilation. Wooden cages also get soiled easily and hamsters can chew through! I also wanted to avoid bar biting and bar climbing with a wired cage and not being able to add deep enough bedding without it causing a mess. Well… this cage meets ALL NEEDS! I am able to see my hamsters walking around and when they’re in their burrows deep at the bottom, I can add the right bedding depth - 8 inches and fit all the toys, wheel and enrichments my hamster needs. I like that it’s a little over the minimum cage requirement of 100cm (108cm) as it just add a little extra room and I guess more the merrier! It doesn’t take up too much room and looks super clean and neat. I have it in white so it blends in well. It has little legs so it sits nicely on top of a unit, which mine is currently on. It is super sturdy and solid without it being ridiculously heavy and difficult to move. Given it is a large cage, I love that it has stacking kits so you are able to stack multiple cages, which takes up less room and again looks very neat. The large top entrance lid makes it super easy to clean and put everything in and I love the front smaller entrance - I can use this to quickly get access to the cage for smaller cleans and to interact with my hamsters. They sit and wait at the front for me to open it up and we have treats and they crawl onto my hands easily. I never have to worry about my hamsters biting or escaping, as it is super secure and it really puts my mind at ease not having to worry about this - the cages are easy to assemble and I have had no issues with this or the packaging. I love this cage so much I have just bought a third one! To me, it’s worth the investment and in comparison to other cages on the market and what this cage offers the price is quite reasonable.

One of the best cages out there that meet the requirements. Super easy to assemble. The front door is high up enough to add an appropriate depth of bedding. Completely clear all the way round, making it fun and easy to watch your hammy burrow or sleep. Love the minimalist, clean look. The metal frame and bottom is extremely sturdy and the hamster will definitely not be able to escape/chew through unlike other wooden cages on the market at a similar or even more expensive price point. Ventilation is quite good but sometimes I will leave the top lid open whilst hammy is sleeping or I am in the room to supervise. Extremely easy to clean and wipe away any messes. After upgrading from a smaller, wired cage, our hamster seems much less stressed and enjoys having so much room to burrow and run around. Only downsides is that the acrylic sides are a bit wobbly so have to be careful if leaning on the front panel. There could be some concerns with bulging of the sides and bottom if a lot of bedding is used (I have the base resting on a dresser so shouldn't be an issue). One of the locks on the front door does get a bit jammed/difficult to open at times. It is quite pricey but definitely worth it!

When bought & for how much? - I bought this (100 x 50 x 52.5cm) Bucatstate 2.0 for £154.99 in April 2025. Background - why this cage? - I have a dwarf hamster - I had bought the 120 x 60 x 62cm Bucatstate 3.0 before this one (for £237.49 in January 2025) & loved every aspect besides assembly > this one seemed easier to assemble (see below) and has the same style, look & access (top & front doors) What did I want from this cage & did it meet those requirements? - I wanted a second, temporary cage for my hamster for when staying with friends/family > it works nicely for this, light enough to lift even once the bedding & accessories are in and can be carried by two people. It's more manoeuvrable than the 120 x 60cm cage, e.g. it can be carried easily up stairs, and easier to fit in a car without disassembling - A cage that meets minimum recommended size for hamster cages in the UK (100 x 50 x 50cm / 40 x 20 x 20 inches) & fits minimum recommended height of bedding (15cm/ 6 inches, compressed to allow burrowing) - Easy to assemble > it only took about 15 minutes to assemble by myself. I only asked for help to slide the front panel in, to save time. You could assemble it on your own. It is not heavy and you do not need to be strong to assemble it - Good access - having both a front opening door and a top opening door make cleaning & rearranging the cage easy. The lid can also be entirely removed during cleaning. I previously had an IKEA Linnmon and this cage is very similar but has the benefit of the front opening door - My hamster is shy & prefers interaction at his own level, i.e. not just from above > the front opening door works nicely for this - You can buy replacement parts (e.g. sides & door latches) for this cage - very reassuring in case of scratches/breakages - You can (theoretically) connect two or more of these cages side by side - nice to know I can expand the size - Aesthetic design - it looks like it does in the listing so fits nicely into a room aesthetic. - Easy to clean - it's wipeable and doesn't seem to react to a 50/50 solution of white vinegar & water (which is frequently recommended for cleaning out hamsters) - You can buy wheels for the feet of the cage - a nice option for easily moving the cage, e.g. to vacuum under it or relocate it within a room - Rectangular cage so does not slope inwards at the base or top like a lot of cages, allowing full use of the floor space & height of the cage Any extra benefits? - Came well-packaged without scuffs or breakages - Came with two spare door clips for the front opening door - reassuring in case any break - Why not 5 stars? Does the 3.0 fix these issues? - The sides of this 2.0 bulge when filled with the recommended minimum amount of bedding (15cm / 6 inches deep) - this is not the case on the 3.0, which has minimal bulging even at 30cm/12 inches of bedding - The cage rattles when the hamster wheel is placed near an edge or on a platform that is near an edge, which is annoying for if you are sleeping in the same room - the rubber seals on the 3.0 stop this (even if they make assembly difficult) - The lid is loud when lifting & closing, which is not a problem for me but could be an issue for noise-sensitive hamsters. (You could just use the front door for access, though) - this is resolved on the 3.0 due to the rubber strips all round the sides & on the top reducing noise - When closed, the front opening door sometimes pops in or out a bit due to the front bulging. Might not suit a hamster that chews a lot at exposed edges - this is not a problem with the 3.0 due to the thicker acrylic & increased number of latches on the front opening door that holds it in place more securely - The base of the cage bulges downwards when filled with bedding & accessories (I have placed the cage on a block of wood the height of the legs so it is supported to fix this) - this is fixed on the 3.0 because Bucatstate has added two metal reinforcement bars Benefits compared to 3.0? - 3.0 took me a few hours & multiple helpers to assemble due to the rubber strips on the sides & lid so wouldn't suit being a temporary cage needing regular assembly/disassembly - this one was quick to assemble - 3.0 assembly would be difficult for people with physical challenges / fatigue - 2.0 assembly was quick and simple - 3.0 is more expensive - this is cheaper in comparison & definitely value for money considering the quality Summary - Excellent cage, meets minimum size, looks good, not as high-spec as the 3.0 but easier to assemble, good access with front and top doors, well-designed, good quality, easy to clean Do I prefer 2.0 or 3.0? - For a permanent cage, the extra space and higher spec of the 3.0 makes it my favourite - and the assembly only needs doing once! - For a temporary cage or cheaper option, the 2.0 works nicely - Both are decent cages

this is a great cage! its spacious while still staying true to its size, the quality us great and its really easy to build! it comes with built in panels at the top which you can open which makes cleaning out a lot easier, and a front panel with three locks!

This is a real game chamber when it comes to ethical gerbil and hamster keeping. At 100x50x50 it hits the minimum welfare guidelines for both hamsters and gerbils and I’ve been fostering both species in it for a year. PROs: - Meets ethical guidelines for ALL species of hamsters. (100x50x50) - also meets ethical guidelines for gerbils too, so can be used for both species.(100x40x40) - Allows for deep bedding which pleases both types of rodents - The front opening is great for taming because it allows the animals to come up to it and climb onto you, and allows you to avoid reaching down to it. - Allows a lot of space for sprays, hides, accessories and a proper sized wheel. - Not super heavy like a tank. CONS: - the front opening can become obsolete with gerbils, as they typically like creating deeper burrows which means it’d become blocked off. - The plastic does bow out at the front due to flap, which makes it feel a bit more flimsy - it meets the MINIMUM ethical guidelines, which with trickier hams like female Syrians doesn’t guarantee they’ll be happy in it. Going for a bigger 120cm long cage and using sea grass matts or cardboard to block off the sides to allow for a deep bedding might be a better choice. Overall, a great option for hamster and gerbil owners

The bucatstate 2.0 is an ideal hamster cage, meeting the ethical minimum of 100x50cm. It offers quality and durability while being safe, chew proof, and is very easy to build and use. I have 2x stacked plus a 3rd in another room. The front opening is a really nice feature which has proved invaluable for bonding with my hamsters. These work really nicely for my dwarf hamsters and can work for most Syrian hamsters if set up appropriately. However not all Syrians are going to be satisfied in the minimum size, I personally would invest in the new 3.0 120cm for a Syrian hamster. I do like the stacking feature but it’s slightly inconvenient for bigger cleans when needing to access the enclosure on the bottom. I will likely split with a table between in future so it’s easier to pull the bottom cage out. The acrylic panels can feel flimsy when you first build the cage, but this evens out when all the substrate is in. I would recommend placing the enclosure on a unit to support the bottom, or sliding the thick foam piece that comes with the packaging underneath if using the wheels. So long as you’re careful with the weight and not placing anything super heavy in the middle of the cage, and are gentle in compressing bedding, you shouldn’t have any issues. The new 3.0 design does address this though with additional support for the bottom.

Item was delivered securely, well packaged and it was easy enough to assemble but frustratingly, there was a small part missing, preventing us getting the hamster on my child’s birthday weekend. I found an email address on the website and emailed with photos and received a response quickly, with a genuine apology and new parts were sent out promptly, including spares. We have been very happy with the cage since; it has been easy to clean, easy to get in and out for feeding and playing with hamster. It looks lovely and allows for you to build and adapt and rearrange the contents of the hamster’s home to keep them entertained. We love being able to see our hamster playing and living happily and love that it isn’t noisy like previous cages. I recommend buying the wheels for ease of moving the cage around to clean or watch your hamster living their best life from different angles. The sturdy cardboard box it comes in also makes a great play area when your hamster is spending time out of their cage!

Temevo che il montaggio richiedesse l’aiuto di un’altra persona, invece da sola ho assemblato la teca in mezz’ora: facile, intuitiva, davvero spaziosa! Il mio criceto non ha sofferto per il cambiamento di habitat, anzi, è diventato più espansivo e trova ogni giorno nuovi insospettabili punti in cui creare i suoi tunnel! Il pacco è arrivato integro e mi considero fortunata perchè ho letto che talvolta è stato massacrato dal corriere. Consiglio questa teca, arredarla è stato davvero un momento magico.

Me decidí a comprar esta jaula por el tamaño. Quería que mi hámster tuviera una jaula en la que pudiera tener la libertad suficiente para jugar y en la que cupieran varios juguetes y esta definitivamente cumple con las expectativas. Es muy fácil de montar. Viene bien embalado todo y se ve de muy buena calidad. En cuanto a la ventilación, tiene varias aberturas y una ventana grande para que el hámster respire.

Definitely amazing I bought the largest one for my dwarf Russian hamster and he loves it currently buying other stuff for him but the cage is easy to assemble thr manual was a little confusing but it should be common logic on how to assemble it over all the cage is HUGE amazing and didnt come damaged for me since I’ve been reading reviews only thing that was “damaged” was the box it comes with but overall amazing product and affordable as well

Tengo un hamster sirio, da para buena capa de sustrato para sus túneles,y poniendo una plataforma (a 10 cm) entra la rueda grande se 25 cm. Esta feliz de últimas ha bajado el estrés y poniendo buenos juguetes para el desgaste dental no ha roto nada. Elegi está por qué las de madera me daban miedo por qué la encanta roer. Y en esta no puede romper ni es peligrosa como los barrotes. Un gran acierto y muy buena calidad, me asustaba que fuera metacrilato, pero de momento no hemos tenido ningún susto.

Wir haben mittlerweile zwei dieser großartigen BUCATSTATE Metallkäfige im Einsatz – einen für unseren Zwerghamster und einen weiteren für unsere 4 Farbmäuse – und ich kann nur sagen: Diese Käfige sind ein absoluter Volltreffer! Selten habe ich ein Kleintiergehege gesehen, das so viele Punkte gleichzeitig erfüllt: Viel Platz, durchdachte Konstruktion, hochwertige Verarbeitung und dazu noch ein wirklich ansprechendes Design. Hier meine ausführliche Erfahrung, warum dieses Modell für uns das perfekte Zuhause für unsere kleinen Mitbewohner ist – und warum es von mir ganz klar die vollen 5 Sterne gibt! 🚚 Schnelle Lieferung & einfacher Aufbau – In kürzester Zeit bezugsfertig Beide Käfige wurden schnell und zuverlässig geliefert. Die Verpackung war stabil, sodass alles heil und ohne Kratzer bei uns ankam. Besonders positiv: Der Aufbau ist wirklich unkompliziert. Mit ein wenig Geschick steht das Gehege innerhalb kurzer Zeit. Alle Teile passen perfekt zusammen, nichts wackelt oder wirkt billig. Eine verständliche Anleitung lag bei, aber eigentlich erklärt sich alles von selbst. Schon nach dem Aufbau war klar: Das ist kein 08/15-Käfig, sondern ein echtes Premium-Zuhause für Kleintiere. 🏡 Platz ohne Ende – Ein Paradies für Hamster und Mäuse Mit den Maßen von 100 x 50 x 52,5 cm bietet der Käfig eine beeindruckende Grundfläche von über einem Quadratmeter – und das merkt man sofort: Unser Hamster hat endlich genug Platz, um seinem natürlichen Verhalten nachzugehen: Buddeln, Klettern, Rennen und Verstecken. Dank des tiefen Grabens können wir jede Menge Einstreu einfüllen, sodass er ausgiebig Tunnel graben kann – ein riesiger Pluspunkt, den viele Standardkäfige nicht bieten. Unsere 4 Farbmäuse genießen ebenfalls den großzügigen Raum. Wir konnten zahlreiche Kletter- und Spielmöglichkeiten integrieren, ohne dass es überladen wirkt. Hängematten, Seile, Häuschen – alles findet seinen Platz und die Mäuse sind aktiv und zufrieden unterwegs. Der Käfig bietet wirklich alle Möglichkeiten, den Tieren ein artgerechtes und abwechslungsreiches Zuhause zu gestalten. Gerade im Vergleich zu den viel zu kleinen Käfigen, die oft im Handel angeboten werden, ist das hier ein echtes Platzwunder! 🪜 Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten ohne Grenzen – Für kreative Tierfreunde ein Traum Ein weiterer riesiger Vorteil dieses Käfigs ist die Flexibilität bei der Einrichtung: Durch die stabile Metallkonstruktion lassen sich problemlos Kletterelemente, Leitern oder Hängematten befestigen. Der tiefe Boden erlaubt es, verschiedene Schichten aus Einstreu, Sandbädern und Verstecken zu gestalten. Auch großes Zubehör wie Laufräder oder größere Häuschen lassen sich problemlos integrieren, ohne dass es eng wird. Man merkt richtig, wie wohl sich die Tiere fühlen, wenn sie ihren natürlichen Bewegungsdrang ausleben können. 🎨 Schickes Design – Endlich ein Käfig, der nicht nach „Plastikbox“ aussieht Ein Punkt, der uns besonders wichtig war: Der Käfig sollte nicht nur funktional sein, sondern auch im Wohnzimmer gut aussehen. Und genau das erfüllt der BUCATSTATE Käfig perfekt: Das schlichte, moderne weiße Design wirkt edel und fügt sich harmonisch in jede Wohnungseinrichtung ein. Keine grellen Farben, kein billiges Plastik – stattdessen eine stilvolle Optik, bei der man den Käfig gerne präsentiert, statt ihn zu verstecken. Wir bekommen regelmäßig Komplimente von Besuchern, wie „schön“ der Käfig aussieht – das ist bei Kleintierunterkünften wirklich selten! 🏗️ Stapelbar – Geniale Funktion, auch wenn wir sie (noch) nicht nutzen Eine der cleversten Eigenschaften ist definitiv die Möglichkeit, die Käfige stapeln zu können. Auch wenn wir aktuell beide Käfige nebeneinander stehen haben, finde ich die Option genial: Für Haushalte mit wenig Platz oder mehreren Tieren ist das eine perfekte Lösung. Die Konstruktion ist stabil genug, dass man keine Sorge haben muss, wenn man mehrere Ebenen nutzt. Allein die Tatsache, dass diese Option besteht, zeigt, wie durchdacht das Design dieses Käfigs ist. 🛠️ Verarbeitung & Pflege: Hochwertig, stabil und leicht zu reinigen Die Metallgitter sind robust, gut verarbeitet und sicher für kleine Tiere. Die große Fronttür erleichtert den Zugang enorm – egal ob zum Reinigen oder um mit den Tieren zu interagieren. Der tiefe Boden lässt sich problemlos säubern, ohne dass man jedes Mal den ganzen Käfig auseinandernehmen muss. Hier merkt man, dass bei der Entwicklung jemand mitgedacht hat – sowohl im Sinne der Tiere als auch der Halter. 💸 Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis: Für diese Größe und Qualität absolut top Natürlich kostet so ein hochwertiger Käfig mehr als ein kleiner Standardkäfig – aber der Preis ist angesichts der Größe, der Verarbeitung und der Funktionalität mehr als gerechtfertigt. Man bekommt hier ein langlebiges Zuhause, das sowohl den Ansprüchen der Tiere als auch der Halter gerecht wird. ✅ Fazit: Das perfekte Zuhause für Hamster, Mäuse & Co. – Uneingeschränkte Empfehlung! Wir sind rundum begeistert von den BUCATSTATE Käfigen und würden sie jederzeit wieder kaufen. Unsere Tiere haben endlich den Platz, den sie verdienen, und wir freuen uns über ein schickes, funktionales Gehege. Großzügiger Raum Artgerechte Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten Hochwertige Optik Cleveres Design mit Stapelfunktion Für alle, die ihren kleinen Fellfreunden ein echtes Wohlfühlzuhause bieten wollen, gibt es von mir eine klare 5-Sterne-Empfehlung! Ob für Zwerghamster, Farbmäuse oder andere Kleintiere – dieser Käfig setzt Maßstäbe und zeigt, dass artgerechte Haltung auch schön aussehen kann.
