MidWest Avian Adventures Nina Playtop Bird Cage

I normally don't leave reviews but when it comes to certain things, reviews really help. Pet homes are one of them! So we bought this cage because it was decently priced for what it was- we viewed other cages that were almost identical but were $100+ more, and I'm familiar with the Midwest company and their dog crates (they're pretty good!). However, after getting this cage and setting it up...we'll be spending that extra money. Some of the bars and stuff were dented when it got here but honestly it wasn't a huge deal breaker- we planned to live with it until we put the entire thing together and realized how cheap the cage actually is.

Putting it together is pretty easy but almost TOO easy to the point where the cage is pretty flimsy. It relies a lot on weight and counterweight- there are no tools or anything needed, so you're just popping things into place. The wheels are the only thing that took effort to pop in which wasn't super reassuring for us. We felt like the thing could be bumped into and fall completely apart, it was that flimsy. I'm really, really thankful for Chewy's lenient return policy because we will be sending it back tomorrow to purchase a cage that's a little pricier but I think in the end, it's well worth spending that extra money. … more

Okay. Not super hard to put together. No tools needed. I was unable to attach the seed guards. There is no place to do that and the directions were not helpful. The directions had a website for videos on help to put together but that site no longer existed. I searched for the Midwest company but all they had for help was a picture of the paper directions. Really need a video. The play top perch is not stable. It rocks. I don’t think birds will like. We removed it. Last thing is that it only comes with one wooden perch. This is a decent size cage and really needs two. Since a 2nd wasn’t provided, it should be an option to add on. I got rope perches for my bird as he would’ve able to access half Okay.

Other then that, it looks nice. Bird will not go near it but it has only been a day. May take a couple weeks for him to warm up to his new digs. … more

Love it. Dogs can't mess with the bird. Easy to clean
