I love the extra room! Not that difficult to put together if you have put together cages before, same basic concept. My African grey has trouble playing in the included play stand as its too small for her feet. With the seed guard on, it will not fit through doors. So remember to roll it into the room you want it to be in before you install the seed guard. Food doors are a little low so I bought different ones. One of the perches doesnt fit, too long.
