Prevue Hendryx 124BLK Pet Products Madison Bird Cage, Hammertone Black

We replaced an aging plastic and wire cage with this one. We have two cockatiels living in it and they have lots of room. They are out and about during the day and go in and out for water and food, then sleep covered in the cage at night. We like how tall it is - lots of room for a cockatiel to stretch its wings which is important. We also like how sturdy it is and easy to clean with the pull out tray and grill. Much more sturdy than plastic cages. Also no assembly was required which was fabulous.

This comes assembled. Plenty large for two parakeets. Very heavy duty and I love how it looks.

I now own three of these cages. I love how super easy they are to clean. I used to have a flight cage but that was such a pain to try and keep clean that Ive been planning to change things up. I have a male and female cockatiel and I have kept the only surviving chick from their first clutch that they abandoned. (He's all grown up now) Because the female has a tendency to go into heat often (like every other month) she has to be in her own cage when that happens on vet’s orders. So I got a third one and decided to make it permanent too keep the mating pair separated. What I love about these cages: Super easy to clean! I just open the door hold the scrubby sponge in place and yank the grill back and forth fo knock the crud off. I also use bed liner pads for the cages and they fit almost exact. Makes it super easy to roll up and toss holding all the mess inside. What I don’t like: The door. Theres only one and its not big enough IMO. It would have been better to make it swing out sideways and make it a wider so you can reach further into the cage for cleaning. Also dont like the swing doors for the dishes. My concern is what to do if a dish breaks. The doors were made for that specific dish and it will be difficult to find dishes that will work with the door. Not a huge deal breaker though since I could still use the main door for easy access. I would still recommend this cage to anyone with tiels. Plenty big for two. But even better for one.

What a great cage/concept. you recieved a undamaged box only to find a undamaged completely assembled bird cage that looks like it will last forever. No worries about Chinesium paint or materials. Made in USA 👍

Planned to use as a sleep cage in order to move my green cheek conure's larger flight cage to the living room. Unless your bird is out most of the day, it's a bit too small to be a full time cage for any bird bigger than a budgie. But regardless, a few serious issues basically ruin this potentially great cage. Pros: Solid welded construction is sturdy, so no awkwardly aligned corners, exposed hardware, or exposed metal to rust. Minimal hinges means fewer spots for little toes to get caught and easier to clean. Cons: - HUGE gap between grate and frame, and grate and bottom tray. The grate being flexible means it is even bigger. In the pics you can see there's well over a 1/2" gap between grate and upper edge of the opening for the grate, but it's also set further back than it should be, leading to an even bigger opening than as-measured. I would imagine any cockatiel, green cheek, or lovebird could escape through this gap or WORSE--get stuck!! - The door opening down is very awkward for reaching in to move things around, I've never understand why some cages have doors that open down instead of to the side. - The food bowls are enormous heavy ceramic ones... it seems nice in theory but one of mine came already broken and their size and shape made it difficult to hold in place to secure with the door even while empty. Obviously the last two are minor issues compared to the first. I've not seen any other cages constructed this solidly or made so handsomely, so it's a shame it renders it unusable. I'll have to return this and cannot recommend.

Much bigger than my old cage. Would buy from this company again. Trays are easy to remove. Large cage door and nice bar spacing for a cockatiel. Added a picture of my old Prevue cage I bought 10 years ago and paid same price for. Only thing is I wish the new Prevue Pet Madison Bird Cage came with a stand like my old one did or sold a stand to fit this cage. I bought a table for it to sit on instead.

Despite having many toys to chew on, my conure chewed on the bars and the paint started coming off. Overall it's a sturdy cage and it works well for my dorm room, it survived the 10-hour drive up to school. While I am concerned about my bird getting sick from the paint chipping, it doesn't seem to be that bad of a problem.

At first I thought the same thing Alexis posted but I've been setting up cages for 35 years and it didn't make sense that an established company like this would have a design flaw like that when there's absolutely no reason for it....so I looked closer and realized that the bottom wire tray has a lip to rest on that actually raises it up to the proper height instead of down low like Alexis described.....This is, of course, unless her cage was made differently than mine.....I do think however if all the cages sold were as she described, more people would be complaining about the same issue but I'm not seeing it - The cage seems like a great value and as for the door, it dropping down instead of swinging out sideways is one of the main reasons I chose the cage since it stops in the horizontal/shelf position for perching outside the cage.
