🐹 9-Inch Silent Runner Wheel with Cage Attachment for Hamsters, Gerbils, and Mice Review

After 5 minutes of running-in, the wing nut is unscrewed. For $30 it should be perfect, but it isn't. They didn't even move the plastic all the way. Here's an idea. Replace the wing nut with a lock nut and the seat cushion problem is solved. The lock nut is 5/16. I put two 5/16 flat washers between the lock nut and the other side of the medal stand, which completely eliminated rocking during movement. Now it never falls off. Just don't tighten it all the way or the wheel won't turn. I would…

I'm a light sleeper, I used to get up at night annoyed at just having to oil an old metal wheel so I could get some sleep. The wheel is solid and has a great metal base that holds it in place. The other wheels I would have to glue to the bottom of the tank to prevent the rattle from being unbalanced or too easy to move while my hamster is in motion. He's really quiet! The instructions say to oil with mineral oil every now and then to keep it quiet, but I'm more than happy when it works that…

Our Syrian hamster lives about 9 months. In that time I have purchased 4 different brands and styles of hamster wheels. Disappointed every time. The first version came with our first cage and sprayed feces and urine on the outside of the cage. The second was too small - I could tell from the arched back of the hamster and the slow progress. The third was a wire and metal variant that didn't keep its rounded shape and although the fourth was made of more durable plastic and decent it was so…

A 9 inch balance bike is hard to find. We have a Syrian hamster and he quickly outgrew the 7 inch wheel we bought from the pet store. There are other much cheaper options but they are mostly metal and grill like a screen which is noisy and not suitable for your small pet from what I've read. I have to admit I felt like I went with this furry friend. I'm so glad I bought this! To date, it has exceeded my expectations, our hamster constantly runs around in it and at the same time has a nice even…

We bought the third running wheel for our Syrian hamster. It annoyed him that he was silent. Unfortunately, it arrived broken and fluctuated a lot. So much so that the hamster didn't run in. Just too wobbly so I contacted the seller and they said some wobbling is normal. It wasn't normal so I sent it back. Interestingly, once you go through the return process, they have no option to exchange it. I had hoped so. However, instead of taking responsibility for a defective product, they pay return…

When I gave her the saucer she never learned how to use it; She only used it as a stool to reach the top of her water bottle. Because of this, I let her run around the house in the hamster ball, but that wasn't enough. She was still too active and energetic when she returned to her cage. When I bought her the Silent Runner, I saw her run on a balance bike for the first time in a year and a half that I had been with her. . I sat in front of her cage and watched her run for a long time. Since I…

I *love* this balance bike. I've had Syrian hamsters for years and have struggled to find an exercise wheel that either A) didn't take up too much space in the cage, B) started to squeak after a few weeks, and C) hurt my paws. I've tried silent spinners, I've tried plastic saucers, I've tried everything. I wish I had never heard of Silent Runner. This is the perfect size for a Syrian (even one the size of my current boy) that doesn't take up cage space. It attaches perfectly to wire cages, but…

Too bad there isn't a zero star option. You must stop promoting this hedgehog bike immediately. It's also sad because when I unboxed it I was struck by its sleek design and super quiet spin abilities. I'm used to paying high prices for the best hedgehog bike on the market, the Carolina Paddle Bike. As I was expecting children, I bought a small balance bike first to decide if I wanted to invest in the high cost of the large balance bikes. I won't speculate as to why this company decided to go…
