Your little family will thank you :D

This is our third igloo we've bought, they are AWESOME! My wife and I have three children; 2 hedgehogs and a guinea pig, they like it very much. Not only do they make a great home for them, they're fun to climb on and are surprisingly chew-resistant. If you are looking for a cheap place to host your little boy/girl, look no further!

Quite Large on Habitat Dรฉcor

This is quite a large house. I bought this for my Syrian hamster who didn't like the house I originally provided. He loves this one and fits in with plenty of room. I removed one star as the description of "mini" really doesn't fit and it will take up a decent amount of space in a cage/aquarium etc. The color I received was pink. Thankfully, Leo doesn't seem to care.

Pros
  • Quality Construction
Cons
  • Large and Bulky

Great choice for housing, can't beat the price.

This is a pretty basic shelter but the animals love it. Unlike wooden houses, it is easy to maintain; Simply wash with warm water and dish soap, then rinse and dry thoroughly. This size is well suited for hamsters, mice, gerbils and baby rats. When you turn it upside down, it's great for storing hay, forage or sand (if you fill the holes with silicone beforehand). There are four holes at the top for ventilation, but hamsters usually stuff the house full of bedding.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • Reliability

Good price for what you get

I think I paid about $3 for this item and it's cheaper than any other stash I've seen. Contrary to some other reviews, I received the Kaytee product that I was promised. The mini size is perfect for my Syrian hamster. We bought another one for my friend's Syrian and it goes with it too. The ONLY bad thing I would say about this product is that they send you a random color. So I'll stick with my hamster at purple and my friend with his male at pink. In my opinion, it's not enough for a starโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Upgrade availability

Great for rats! in homes and habitats

My rats love this skin. My rats are medium sized and they both fit in one as they snuggle and snuggle together. But do I love this product? Oh well. Very durable, can stand on pellets or flat surfaces. It's pretty easy to clean, and you don't have to do it that often because it doesn't soak up anything. It's pretty thin, but my rats didn't pierce it at all. You didn't even chew it. I have a mini that's bigger than you think. I like that it's transparent so I can see if my rats are in it or not.

Pros
  • One year test
Cons
  • I won't say anything

Sturdy but definitely worn out over time

I've bought several of these over the years and while they last a long time they do get pretty sloppy over the course of a year as they scratch fairly easily. In addition, in addition to our guinea pig, which left it untouched, our mice and chinchillas also gnaw the edges. Although the critters seem to feel safe inside and believe they are hidden, they are easy to check since igloos are translucent; so the little ones don't have to be disturbed by opening the cage and exposing it whileโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!

Slightly larger than expected and not as comfortable for gerbils

Bought a large needle for my hamster. He is strong and seems to like him quite well; However, in my opinion it was too big for a standard pet cage (sold in (c)PetSmart stores). Although it fit in, it took up most of the floor so there wasn't much room to walk around so I had to pull it out. In any case, I'm planning to get a bigger aviary, so I'll use it for that. UPDATE: Unfortunately my hamster died so I got a gerbil a few months later. Within a month of placing the needle in his animal cageโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great price
Cons
  • Hard to say
