I was excited to get this new cage for my children's two new budgies. Unfortunately when we got it, it needed a lot of work to put together! First one leg on the stand did not have any holes drilled out to put it together. Good thing I can work a drill and had the right bit. Next the walls of the cage would not hold together without taking a pair of needle nose pliers to bend the catch areas into the right spot. The doors for the food holders do not slide properly and needs some work and the big door latch was way off track and needed realignment to make it easy enough for my kids to open to clean the cage. Finally the shelf below was too small to fit into the holes in the stand so I reworked it and made a new shelf. All in all if I didn't need a bigger cage right away I would have sent it back for the amount of work I had to do on it. The concept is great but the execution is way off! Do not waste you money and time on the cage.
