Great quality, Great Value
Awesome cage. We just purchased a Green Cheek Conure which is a Small Parrot. This cage is a great size for him. We ordered this cage to match the one we already have for our Quaker Parrot (also a small Parrot). Perfect size, and it comes with food/water dishes, perches, and a toy. Definitely worth it. I would not use the cage for larger birds though. Appropriate cage size should be researched before buying a cage. The cage bars are fairly thick and the perches/dishes are of good quality as well. My only complaint is that the doors to access food/water dishes are a bit tough to open unless you pull forward on the bars and lift the doors at the same time, but because of this, I do not have to worry about the birds getting out.

Great birdcage! Easy to assemble.
I bought this to replace my old birdcage that was falling apart. I love the open door in the front that drops down. This was the only one I found that had one. The last one had a hood on the cage that went to the door to hold it in place which I took off and added to this cage. Used some of my old toys along with the new ones for this cage. It is tall and not as wide as my last cage but the bird adjusted to it in no time. Would highly recommend.

Perfect For Cockatiels!
The cage is good quality with thick & sturdy bars, and is probably worth at least $100 by itself. It comes with: 2 feeding bowls, 2 wooden perches, a really thick calcium perch, a rope toy, a calcium treat block, and a cuttlebone. Pros: Good quality items Cheap price Fast shipping (at least it was for me) Relatively easy to put together Cons: Not suitable for birds bigger than a cockatiel Theres no copper bell The 'starter kit' part is really old & the cuttlebone may be too old to use There's practically no instructions aside from a few basic diagrams Notes: The rest of the 'starter kit' is fine to use even though it's a bit old. Even though the instructions are just a few pictures, it's still relatively easy to put together. You just need a bit of muscle to get the roof of the cage on. The 'starter kit' is called: PENN-PLAX Parrots & Conures Value Kit The weird, way too small piece is for in case you want to add a shelf.

OY VEY! Where do I start?
Bad first impressions: Needed this birdcage as a "second" temporary housing for my small parrot (Hahn's Macaw) while I'm out of town over the holidays and she's boarding at the local avian vet. Arrived yesterday and tried to start putting it together this evening. CONS: Directions are sparse; the cage arrived packaged in a way that sandwiched (squished!) all the side pieces and support hooks together so that they couldn't (still can't) be separated without hammer and pliers. The "slider" entry door is jammed and won't open. It was also really dusty/dirty - so had to wash all the pieces well. I'm exhausted with the effort so far but will try again tomorrow. If I have to return this - it'll be a huge DRAG to have to haul the big box back to the UPS store. PROS: Well, if I ever get it to constructed and working, it does look like it will be sturdy. The price is good. Extras, like toys included, are a nice plus. Will keep you posted!

perfect for one Cockatiel (too small for more)
Well made, perfect for one Cockatiel (too small for more). This was to replace an identical one which I had for 12 years, but started to show some rust by the water dish area. Two sides have horizontal bars which are perfect for climbing, while the other two have vertical bars which are great for sliding. The main door is very large, and folds down to 90 degrees making a landing pad for when my bird gets tired of sitting on my shoulder while reading the Miami Herald with me. I didn't use some of the toys, but the wood perches are just the right size for a Cockatiel. Give it a try....

Great Sleep cage for my Sun Conure and Quaker Parrot
I have two small parrots - Quaker and Sun Conure - that have been housed together for 18 years. I needed a small cage to serve as a hospital cage for the Quaker who was recuperating surgery, so I purchased this cage and at the time I paid a nice low price for it on Amazon. After my Quaker made a full recovery, she was placed back with her buddy and I decided that this cage would make a great sleep cage for the two of them. It worked out great because now they have a separate cage where they can get undisturbed sleep.

Great cage for the price
I bought this cage for my Green Cheek Conure, and it's perfect for him. It came with some toys and perches which was great. It was easy to put together and is pretty easy to clean. For the price it's a great cage, and is light weight so it works well as a travel cage.

Décu de cette cage, les barreaux étaient écaillés et j'ai dû refaire la peinture sur plusieurs barreaux avec de la peinture sans plomb pour cage. Par contre une cage robuste.

It’s bigger than I expected but good that there’s more room for my cockatiel and budgie. Came with many extras like perches and swings . What I didn’t like were the coloured chew toys which were made in China. I threw them away as maybe toxic .
