My chinchilla Love this wheel! & so do I!
I love that this product is large enough to not harm my chinchillaâs spin while running full stride. Itâs worth the money, itâs well made works great. My chinchilla took a few days to adjust and figure out how to get it to stop, but now she is a pro and can stop it whenever she wants to get off and lounge. Itâs a little louder than I expected. But I donât mind, I am just happy she is not getting harmed using this product. Itâs easy to clean and I highly recommend this for any chinchilla owner. Itâs a great investment. Iâm hoping it will last her lifetime. ð¤I canât believe how many wheels are out there that are too small for their spins. Thanks for making a product designed for my furry friend with her health/body in mind.

Best chin toy ever!
My Smoky LOVES her wheel. And unlike others we’ve tried it is plenty big and standing up to all she dishes out. Although I bought replacement bearings at one point, as we thought it might be needed. It turned out the the cage attachments just needed tightened back up. The wheel itself seems to be fairly quiet, but with the speed Smoky runs and the way she bounces in and out of it, my living pinball usually has her whole cage shaking, so it’s a bit difficult to accurately rate the wheel’s noise level.

Not worthy of the cost
This product is not worth the money I paid. The $30 wheels at a pet store last longer than this product. I used it with 2 bonded chins. It was sooo noisy, bearing fell apart within days. We moved it to a single chin cage. It was much quieter but continues to fall apart. I am soo disappointed in this wheel. $120 up in smoke.

Great wheel, only issue is the center nut
Wheel works great, very quiet. Only issue Iâve had is the center nut gets loose constantly. Ever week when I clean i cage I take the wheel off, tighten it down, and reinstall the wheel. When youâre already cleaning the cage itâs not bad, but it does get annoying

Foster loved it!
My foster came with a plastic too-small wheel, so I ordered her this one. She immediately jumped on and ran! Itâs not super quiet, but itâs the perfect size for chins. Itâs durable and stays put. Easy to wipe clean. Will last! I definitely will get again.

Amazing buy for rats!
Let me start by saying that the wheel was well packaged and sent very fast. It spun smoothly and without noise. The mounting bracket is made sturdy and has wingnuts for easy installation. I bought this wheel for my male rats to reduce the chance of a spinal injury and provide them with a outlet for excess energy. The only down side might be the bearings. They work wonderfully but cation is advised when cleaning in order to prevent rust. All in all I am very satisfied with this purchase and plan to buy another for my female rats.

Sturdy – gets noisy if not oiled
This wheel is very sturdy, easy to clean and quick to put up. But, it does get noisy if not oiled. The noise is very loud so make sure to oil your regularly. Other than that my chinchillas love this wheel and use it daily. The wheel itself is massive, so it gives the animal lots of space to run

QUIET Wheel + My Rats LOVE It!
After browsing amazon and other retailers for a suitable wheel for my rats for months I finally decided to take a chance and order this one. I wasn’t quite sure how it would turn out considering the lack of reviews regarding rats but I’m happy to say that it more than exceeded expectations! The day I put it into the cage my 3 most confident rats hopped right on, never showing any reluctance and clearly favoring it over their 12 inch comfort wheel. Over the following week the rest of my rat slowly started to use it as well and as of now its common to always find at least one or two rats on it when they’re awake!To this day they still have access to the 12 inch comfort wheel along with a 12 inch saucer wheel and this 15 inch wheel at all times but their preference for the larger wheel is quite clear. While they might use the other wheels for a few seconds when convenient they’ll happily run on this wheel for minutes at a time, and considering that many of my younger rats have crazy energy levels that is exactly what they need! Best of all it stays quiet when they run on it, leaving only the pitter-patter of their tiny feet echoing off the metal.All in all I found this wheel to be an excellent product in the month+ I’ve had it and I’m sure it will be enjoyed by many rats to come!Updated July 28th 2021 – The wheel continues to work great for my rats – its just as quiet and fast-spinning as when I got it, and it has now been used by 20 rats total on a regular basis and continues to work well.

I got it for rats in a Critter Nation tall cage, all 3 of them have been using it.-Noise:Quite low, I’m sitting about 2m (6-7 feet) away from their cage, I wear an headset at low volume and if I didn’t always kept an ear out to make sure nothing bad happen with them, I would probably not notice when they are using it.It is more noisy when one of them run in it, but since they tend to jump a little and not just run, it might be the reason for the volume’s difference.-Sturdiness:It’s made quite strongly, the metal got a nice thickness and the enamel looks like the same that is used to cover the cages for large parrots, even got a similar texture.-Solidity:It’s very stable, it’s somewhat heavy so you might need to add something to reinforce the side of your cage, not because it will deform but rather to reduce the already low volume of the noise.-Cleaning:Very easy, you can very easily clean it up without removing it out Unless you want to clean up the backside and even then you can do a large part of it without removing it.-Finaly:3 of my 4 rats have been using it since I installed it in their cage. The 4th one who didn’t use it was mostly du to her age, her personality and the fact she was a naked rat (We suppose that the cold metal might have been unpleasant for her).Overall I would give a score of 9.5/10. The missing score being for the weigh of the wheel, but it’s also a strong point since it means it is quite sturdy. I’ve had it for about 7 weeks and have no complain. Great product!Make sure to measure your cage before ordering, even while knowing the size it had and even looking it up with a measuring tape, it is still quite surprising how big it is.

Absolutly LOVE it! I have a ferret nation so i reinforced my bars so it would be a little sturdier but its by far the best wheel ive ever seen. Best one on the market. The price is steep but you get what you pay for, quality! Nice sturdy and thick metal, everything metal. Both my chins havnt stoped using it since its been instaled (15 minutes or so) really cute to see them both wait for their turn

Bought last year. Worked well at the beginning, but it hasnât been working well for the last six to nine months. It doesnât turn well and the wheel makes a horrible sound. The hole in the middle weakened and the axle shifted. Had to buy another one. Bought a different model from another company and it works so much better and will last much longer . Donât waste your money and buy a wheel with a wood back and surrounded by metal. Cheaper, quieter and much more durable!
