Amazing
Great wheel! Very silent, you can just hear their little feet running on it. Do have to coat in plastikote to protect it from wee etc.
Great value for money!!

Brilliant. Very quick delivery. Lovely product my hamster loves it and I have peace of mind that her spine will not get damaged. It also look great in the tank .

disappointed - cheap product
i ordered 2 of these wheels after having one previously (which got ruined because i didnt cover it with plastikote). this time i did paint them with plastikote thinking everything would be fine but my mice decided to chew out the cork, so now theyre left with just the wooden base and nothing soft to run on. the cork came out of the other wheel immediately upon arrival too. not sure how to replace this and solve the problem, feel like i've just wasted £20. trixie plastic wheel is better imo.

Lightweight construction
The wheel is made of very lightweight wood and makes quite loud noises when used.

Trixie Wooden Exercise Wheel
I got the 28cm wheel for my short haired Syrian hamster. I think it’s a very good quality wheel at the moment but I have only had it for 1 week so I don’t know if it will be in the future. It’s not silent but it’s pretty quiet but like I said it could change once it gets older. There are only two problems which are that she peed on the wheel and it stained for a few days and you might need to sand it down because there are tiny bits of wood sticking out but it might be because she chewed it.

Excellent wheel
This wheel is perfect, my hamster loves to run in it. It has a slight wobble to it when in use. I've coated it in plastikote so that the Cork isn't ruined by hamster wee.

Wobbles excessively
Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this product. It wobbles excessively. After my complaint, I was sent a replacement wheel, which again runs completely unevenly. One star goes to the customer service for their efforts, but the product is not worth the money – even if it’s cheap.

Very poor quality
I was so excited to order this when it came back into stock but honestly the quality is so poor. It’s very rickety and loud ☹️ I was struggling to find a wheel and this was recommended to me. When it arrived I spun it and I thought the rocking and noise was from the tag being attached around the moving mechanism at the back. I removed the tag and still the same. Not happy and I wouldn’t recommend buying this.

Keeps getting stuck
I have only had this wheel for a week and when it does work it is fantastic and almost silent but my hamster can only do a few rotations before it scrapes along the bottom of the stand and she can no longer push it around. It seems very wonky but I keep trying to straighten it to no avail. I may have a faulty one as I have only ever heard good things about it, hence the purchase. I have however been left very disappointed and now need a new one. Sadly I can’t afford to risk this one again.

The exercise wheel is great, I bought it for my multi-mammate mice. I can definitely recommend it.

Wooden hamster wheel
this is a very good wheel for hamsters, although, i recommend covering it with the brand “plasticote” because my hamster has peed on my wheel and stained it. the wheel isn’t too noisy but it depends if you get a faulty one or not.

I went for the 28 cm one, and here’s my conclusion... My degus gnawed off the cork lining after just one week, the wheel wobbles and makes noise because of it. Despite that, my degus absolutely love it and spend the whole day running in it. So far, it’s still the best wooden exercise wheel I’ve tested, and I would buy it again.

Amazing!
I received this yesterday and omg how happy I am! I ordered the 8 inch one for my hybrid dwarf hamster after finding his old 6 inch silent spinner was too small for him! This wheel is a good size for a dwarf I’d say but the larger sizes are also good for dwarf hamsters as long as they can push it! This wheel is pretty much silent- you can only hear it ‘spinning through the air’ and your hammys little feet running!
100% recommend for dwarf hamster!!!

Doesn’t last
This wheel is good- they have the appropriate sizes and it is very pretty and natural. BUT AFTER TWO MONTHS it makes the loudest noise ever. I had heard in reviews this before I bought it and decided that I would buy it anyway because I needed a quick fix, but I really regret it now. It bangs into itself and clicks a lot because my hamsters weight has been pulling it down and the design wouldn’t let you toggle and fix the axel as it is all incased in wood.

too loud
i chose this wheel because all the reviews were good and said that the wheel was silent and great. now they must either be deep sleepers or i just got a bad wheel. when my hamster runs on it , it tilts side to side as i have a syrian he is slower than any smaller hamster who could fall off it as they will go even faster. did i also mention that its not been painted over so not waterproof so it absolutley stinks would not recomend

Huge!
Ordered the middle size as I thought “there’s no way the small one will be big enough at this price” but the middle one is huge!! Unbelievably good value for money, luckily I have a big enough hamster cage to fit it in. Saw the same one other sites for a lot more. Wow, I’ll never go anywhere else my hamster products now.

Very quiet
Good sized wheel that runs pretty quietly. Our gerbils love it.

Excellent wheel and customer service
These wheels are fantastic, my hamster absolutely loves it and he runs much faster than in his previous wheel so I think it is more comfortable for him with the cork running surface. Very smooth and quiet.
The customer service was also brilliant from Zooplus when I had a problem with my order, they were really helpful and resolved it very quickly. Really recommend ordering from this site.
