PH Prevue Hendryx Wrought Iron Flight Cage With Stand

Very impressed with the quality and speedy delivery of this cage. It’s sturdy and roomy, with numerous small spring-loaded doors and 2 large latch doors, for easy access to feed cups and cleaning, setting up, etc. I opted not to use the provided casters, but rather secured the cage to a small low rise coffee table, in order to have additional storage, plus no ‘stooping’ required (which my back appreciates). Money well spent. Only minor issues: the rubber tray barely fits into the bottom and falls out easily (but can sit on the bottom grill instead); and the feed cups do not fit between the rungs of the cage (anywhere) properly, so one of the hooks snapped off while trying to force the issue. Will just buy some smaller feed cups. Overall, good value for the money, nice cage.

5 stars for loving the cage design after assembling and 5 budgies love it also. Flexibility of door sizes and location, see excellent, I use brown craft paper, 55lb from bulk roll ordered from amazon, most economical so I can change paper daily, like the pull our tray easy to clean w disinfectant wipes and it slides back in under the wired bottom so birds can’t touch it anyway. The craft paper is on top of the bottom wired shelf so they can run around easily without tearing or sagging, their feet aren’t on the grill bottom this way, nice and smooth.

The water & food trays are ample however could only easily hook them on the right side, prongs slid in and our easily. Other sides prongs were slightly off width, son forced 1 first one and broke the prongs. So just try hooking trays on first with nothing in them to assure which location fits easily. Otherwise you’ll spill water and food forcing them.

It was easier to locate perches swings toys after location for trays fit.

ASSEMBLY – 4 stars as some reviewers mentioned directions weren’t the easiest and there’s an assembly video on amazon below the product picture, which I hadn’t watched.

Am 60+ yr grandma who does assembly, repairs around home alone so suggestion if you don’t have a second set of hands to help.

I always do inventory of parts 1st, assuring have none missing or broken before assembling, much less frustrating. I organize them in order of directions with a pencil to check off each instruction AFTER completing, so much easier to resume if interrupted.

A picture is worth a thousand words and time saved, find the picture put in front of you, often don’t nred directions that way.

Mostly, make sure you have zip ties/cable ties from hardware store, these are my extra hands to keep everything from falling apart or moving, but leave a little slack to easily cut them off as needed.

rather than assemble bottom with wheels and working your way up from there, I found much easier to lay down bottom on its side, swivel the wheels so it’s flat. I then assemble the cage flat on floor and against a plumb wall or cabinet side so already 2 sides don’t move, use zip ties.as you go, the prongs from cage sides don’t slide out of place that way. After bottom and top ate assembled, I slide top to bottom and assemble,flat on floor then just lift straight up.

Didn’t have time to edit long post and if it saves some frustration and time for any of you that’s the intention.

Because some reviews are quite negative, this cage is perfect for smaller birds, width of bars, strengrh, design, spaciousness. If anyone who has larger stronger heavier birds then it’s obvious you need to choose a stronger bar design.

I suspect some customers choose this one for smaller birds because of very big savings thinking it’s spacious enough when in fact they have,to pay more the the stronger bars period.

Therefore it’s not fair or reasonable to the manufacturer to give a lower rating if their bigger birds are destroying it.

I couldn’t afford more and I think.it’s an outstanding but, my 30 & 35 yr sons do also.

If assembled with a bit of slack with screws then tighten them a bit going around evenly you’ll find that it’s sturdy doesn’t wabble. Have some heavier toys? rather than hang on individual wire, I slip a dowel of 3,6,9 inches inside the loop, string, hook whatever and lay the dowels across the wires on top of cage so weight is distrib uted over several wire rods instead of hanging off 1 and risk sagging, in general.

If you can’t find dowel sizes you need then popsicle sticks might serve same person.

LOVE THIS CAGE WELL WORTH EVERY PENNEY NO REGRETS WOULD BUY IT AGAIN AND RECOMMEND. I SAVED A LOT OF $.

Suggestion: If you just don’t have the patience to assemble ask a customer helper in a pet store if they could do for you, but I don’t suggest being cheap w $ either. It does take time but you still save a lot of money paying someone to do for you.

If you are 2 persons who work well together ? 45 min if you’re alone, count on 1-1.5 hrs.

Your feathered friends will love the space and safety from harm.

Encantado con esta jaula ! Súper espaciosa y robusta, buenos materiales y acabados y sobre todo cómoda de utilizar para meter y sacar todo y a mis agapornis parece encantarles. Además, añadir que la jaula la he montado sin ayuda y aunque es cierto que entre dos personas es más cómodo y fácil, el montaje en sí me parece súper fácil e intuitivo, así que no entiendo la gente que se quejaba de lo difícil que es el montaje…porque para nada. En definitiva, 10/10 y muy recomendada si quieres que tus aves estén cómodas cuando están dentro de la jaula.
