Review: Great purchase, great size, great price! - Perfect size for my Syrian hamsters. My kiddos helped them get comfortable using it and now they run on it constantly! It squeaked a bit but we put Vaseline on the inside of the wheel where the white plastic bar fits in and the squeaking stopped! Definitely recommend buying and we’ll most likely be buying a 2nd one because of having 2 hamsters.
Review: Decent wheel for the price - Definitely not a quiet wheel, and a little wobbly, but great for the price. Large, spins well, and my mice love running on their big stupid wheel.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent wheel for the price
*by M***N on October 16, 2025*

Definitely not a quiet wheel, and a little wobbly, but great for the price. Large, spins well, and my mice love running on their big stupid wheel.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ My Nieces gerbils love it, but be prepared to clean it every other day due to their pee.
*by J***S on December 19, 2019*

I got my niece two new baby gerbils for her birthday and settled on this wheel vs other smaller ones or the ones with a mesh wire grate or the really expansive ones. I was worried this might be to big for them to spin up or stop once its going as they are so small, but it's working out just fine. Once they figure out what it is they probally spend an hour or more a day in it. But it's not without its faults, here are the pros and cons that we have observed. Pros - The gerbils love it and use it so that's the main point. - Even though its big it rotates freely so they can get it going with no problem. Also its not so massive that they can't stop. - The entire wheel is solid so unlike the wire mesh kind there is no way their little paws can get stuck in the mesh and injured. Also since the entire wheel is solid it contains all their pee as they do pee while running on it. So you won't get pee slung around their enclosure like other kinds. - The wire stand it mounts onto pulls right off and the wheel can be pulled off the post it rotates on making cleaning a snap. We just put it in the kitchen sink and spray it with sanitizer and rise it all out. Also since the wheel just slides off the mount you can ditch the stand if you have a wire cage and mount it to your cages bars. Our tank is a 20 gallon aquarium so we need the stand. Cons - Since they will pee in it as they are running you need to be prepared to clean it every other day as it gets rank pretty quick. The plus side is that it contains all the pee and it dries on the wheel until cleaning. And since the pee can't get slung out into their tank or bedding it keeps their bedding and tank cleaner much longer. - The wheel is pretty loud! The gerbils are in their own room, but you can hear them when they jump on it. I cut out a felt circle and mounted it the shaft the wheel buts up to and that cut the noise down in half but it's still loud because of a few of the other reasons below. - The wheel is really out of balance and they can get it rotating very fast so it shakes badly contributing to its noise profile. - The wire mount has a bit of a spring action to it contributing to the vibration and noise as well. - As the wheel spins it will start rotating due to gyroscopic progression (look it up). What this means is that it will start turning on its axis 90degs to the direction of the wheels spin and eventually hit anything like the side of your tank, etc. You'll just have to either reset it every day or weigh it down. For the price it can't be beat. The Gerbils do compete to use it so if you have more than one you probally need to get a second wheel. Once I can expand their enclosure I'm gong to get them a second wheel. A few pics and a slow-mo vid attached. Keep in mind that these are new gerbils that are only like 2 months old and are pretty small. I can't see how they would be comfortable in one of those 6 inch wheels!
