I bought my Critter Nation 162 as a cage for my rats. This cage is great. It's structurally sound, my rats LOVE climbing a cage nearly as tall as me to explore all the levels, and there is room in it to put all the toys and things that you want. I'd definately recommend this cage to a friend or anyone that I know that is interested in looking into getting a new rat cage. It was worth every penny we spent.

The only thing we noticed that we weren't thrilled about was that the pictures in the booklet showing you how to put it together were wrong. It shows holes in pieces that have no holes and the holes actually end up being punched in other places in pieces above it. It didn't change the cage and it's perfect but they do need to adjust the booklet so it doesn't make people go insane that it doesn't look right. We were afraid we'd have to call and ask for replacement parts the second we took it out of the box until we started putting it together anyway.
