Kaytee Silent Spinner Wheel For Pet Mice and Dwarf Hamsters, Mini 4.5 Inch

Perfect for our mouse - fairly quiet and just his size. Took a while for him to begin to run on it, but he runs daily now and seems to be holding up well to washes.

No complaints, and the hamster really seems to like it! [Update: It does get noisy eventually.] PRICE, QUALITY, PRICE FOR QUALITY: Good quality, appropriate price (on Amazon). I dunno what's the reviews saying the yellow thingie falls off; mine is fine and it's been weeks. I'm using it on the ground with the stand. SIZE: I heard the next size down was too small for roborovoskis except for babies, so I bought this one. It seems comfortable and spacious for my adult female roborovski, but not so big that I feel like I went TOO big. I'm happy that she has more running room (side to side) and that it's a flatter run for her (rather than her having to arch her back). GETTING DIRTY: Yes, you have to wash the urine & feces off of it from time to time, but why have a pet if you aren't willing to take care of it? This wheel is probably much safer and much more comfortable for their little feet than a wire one that the urine & feces can drop through, so, that's just how it goes. Suck it up for the sake of your hamster (and your ears). Besides, I don't see why wire wheels would need to be cleaned any less often (even if the need to do so isn't as immediately visually obvious) but, sadly, I bet a lot of people go weeks or months letting them get all nasty. That's a problem with the OWNER, not with plastic vs. metal wheels... NOISE: It's not utterly silent (duh), but it's so quiet that I generally don't realize that she's using it unless I look and see it. When you're lying in bed and thinking about it, sure, you can hear it a bit, but I was going insane from the previous wheel (even with olive oil on it), whereas now I never even think about it, ever. Her scritching and scratching about the cage is distracting for me, some nights, but never the wheel. [Update: Yeah, it gets noisy eventually, and now I'm back to needing earplugs. Took a few months though, not weeks.] Recommended! It's also attractive. I'm glad mine turned out to be purple :)

Update: it’s awful I wake up and it’s wedges against the wall and can’t move because it’s so light weight and poorly designed my hamsters moves it around and it gets stuck. It’s terrible and waste of my money Ehh it’s at a good price but I feel as though I need to buy extra things to modify it. It slides on the niteangel wooden platform and ends up scraping the sides of my cage making it hard for the hamster. Needs some kind of grip on the bottom to prevent it from sliding around the cage and constantly needing to be adjusted. Lastly it’s doesn’t exactly spin smoothly, it’s a bit choppy out of the box. Might need lubricant I’m not sure

This wheel is certainly quieter than the standard wheel I had. Since it's plastic, it's easy to clean too. However, the wheel will get loose and wobble after about 2 weeks of use. I think it seems to be the construction of the back attachment and the axle. Once this happens, it is still "quiet," but definitely not nearly as noiseless as when it is first used. I'm not sure it can be fixed, as I've tightened it as much as possible and it's still causing some vibrations (I'm using it attached directly to the side of the cage, btw). In any case, it works well enough that I can sleep. As for durability, it seems a bit worn after only 2 months. Then again, it hasn't broken yet. I'm just disappointed this product isn't made sturdy enough to maintain its original quietness after use by my new syrian hamster, who it is supposed to be for (as pictured on the packaging). It could work better for dwarves though. It's also a shame that amazon didn't let me choose the color I got, haha, but that's not really a problem. In the end, if you're looking for a fast, reasonable alternative to a screeching wheel, this will do it. But if you're willing to do some searching online, and maybe spend more money, try getting something else for syrian hamsters. For example: Wodent Wheel (heard lots of great reviews and comes in an 8" size), SAM Lightning Wheel/some other SAM wheels (have a slightly different design from the silent spinner that may work, after all they're also plastic), Karlie Wonderland Wheel (is 8" and silent, but it's wooden, so maybe not the best), etc.

I got this as a replacement to my rats' old Kaytee Comfort Wheel. The previous wheel they had would warp the bars of their cage if you were to hang it instead of using the stand, and would make a lot of noise as it would bounce up and down while the rats would run on it. Most of my rats were afraid of the old wheel, and only 2 of my 5 girls would use it. After only a few months of use the old wheel broke, putting me on the quest to find a new wheel for my girls that wouldn't have all the faults of the old wheel. That's where this wheel comes in. The Silent Spinner wheel is much quieter than the Comfort Wheel. Connecting it to the cage itself is super easy with the Silent Spinner, and it attaches at any T-joint of the cage, which makes it much more sturdy and stable, which also makes it much quieter as it doesn't bounce up and down while the rats use it. Overall I'm very pleased with this purchase, and 4 out of 5 of my girls happily use it now.

Prima rad, maar de standaard ontbreekt in het pakket. Het pakket was ook niet beschermend ingepakt

Though small but good and stable. My hamster has been using it.

A qualidade é muito mais superior do que imaginava, e o diâmetro também está em um tamanho muito bom. Espero que meus gerbils usem e não consigam destruir. Queria ter comprado duas unidades mas essa era a última do estoque :(

Not recommended, the wheel is not fast and smooth. My sugar gluder suffer while running. Waste of money
