Questions & Answers
Yes! It folds up nicely and can even be put back into the box for convenient storage!
There are eight panels, each measuring 18'nches. It measures 18'x54' when set up as a "rectangle" run, but the cover/floor is shaped to approximate an octagon shape. The diameter is 43'. It is large enough for a person to sit in, but not enough for a rabbit. We use it as a playpen for our rabbit who is on his own. Folds down to a single panel's size. When not in use, it is heavy but simple to store.
It could probably be bent into a square if the bottom isn't attached. However, without the bottom, it would not be very stable, and I would not recommend using it in that manner.
Hamsters and gerbils can pass through anything larger than 1/2" in diameter. Dwarf hamsters can and will fit through a 1/2" opening. I'd recommend a cage with 1 cm spacing for smaller pets, such as the Midwest Small Animal Playpen. Roborovski hamsters of all sizes are safe. br>A large Syrian would be fine with very close supervision, but they have a good chance of getting through.

Petco offers a much better deal. The proportions are excellent. I only have one Guinea Pig, so she'll have plenty of room to run around in. It wasn't completely put together when I received it. There were four connections to connect, each of which was a little difficult to figure out. There are only four velcro attachments, but I believe there should be eight. The mat does not stay tight against the sides because there are only four of them. I'm keeping the exercise pen, but I'm going to get some more velcro to make it more secure. This is a product that I would strongly recommend!.
This is one of the largest playpens available on the market, which I like. If I scrunch up my body enough, I can lay in it. It is not, however, appropriate for rats. The reason for this is that the horizontal bars are too closely spaced. My rats can easily get out of this playpen with very little effort. I bought this item with the intention of sitting in it and letting my rats run around on the floor next to me without having to keep an eye on them. This playpen cannot be used for this purpose because they can easily escape.
After doing some research on guinea pigs, I discovered that most pet store cages are too small for them. I now keep them in this playpen as a cage. On top of the mat that came with it, I lay down fleece. It's a tough mat. I'm very happy with the decision I made.
For my small bunny, I purchased a medium-sized playpen. It comes almost completely assembled and folds up neatly for storage. I'm not sure if mine has an extra panel or not, but I had to cut one out to fit it on the mat. Otherwise, it was too large for the mat, leaving a bottom corner open. My only wish is that it were more durable. The whole thing came crashing down when my mother's little chihuahua leaned on it. Thankfully, my bunny wasn't in it at the time, but I won't leave him alone in it again because it's so easy to tip over.
This playpen is simply fantastic; the cover is great and keeps Tucker safe from the local hawks and bald eagles. This pen is easy to assemble and disassemble, and it actually fits back into the box for travel or storage when we take Tucker camping. This is a must-have item for any small pet!.
I adore this tiny pen. It's tall enough that my pig won't be able to climb out of it, as he did with a shorter rainbow pen I purchased. The cover also gives me the impression that he is protected from birds and cats when he is outside. I like that I can use it both inside and outside on the bottom.
This purchase has made me very happy. I noticed the price had gone up at the time of writing this review, but I saw this same pen at Petco for $45 in store and got it for $25 here, so I suppose the price fluctuates. I have a two-year-old guinea pig, and this is perfect for him. The mat's tag states that it is not machine washable, and it does stain with pee, even after cleaning it with vinegar. However, I rarely use the mat these days and instead use the fencing to create a nice safe, open space by blocking off a small portion of my room with gaps and wires. This item uses these small plastic pieces to connect the fence, which have not yet broken after nearly a year of continuous use. Everything folds up neatly and can be stored in a small space. Overall, I would strongly advise other small animal owners to purchase this product.
This is an excellent hamster cage. It was extremely simple to assemble, and it is large enough for toys as well as space for the hamster to roam when out of the cage for free cleaning or play.
