Wooden Hamster Wheel
Excellent product. I have purchased two, a 20" and 28" as they are moved from cage to play pen. Nice and quiet.

Silent, safe, fun!
Love this wheel! It provides a safe running surface for a hamster. The cork makes a safe base for hamsters to run on. It is totally silent and can be hung upside down to prevent bedding clogging it up. The middle size is large enough for my syrian to run on without his back bending.

Keeping fit.
My gerbil uses this wheel a lot. It took her a while to get used to it. She would go at high speed and then suddenly stop, then she would either be carried around the wheel till it stopped or she would be flung off. But over time she learnt she had to slow down before stopping.
She has chewed most of the inner cork grip but doesnt seem to affect it much.
Very good product, would buy again.

Silent but unhygienic
I bought the 21cm wheel for my 3 mice. Wheel spins well, and there is no noise at all. But they chewed almost all of the cork off. It also sucks up urine and sometimes feces as well - makes the whole cage stink and it cannot be cleaned. I have to throw it out after only two months use.

Super!
I ordered three exercise wheels with a diameter of 28cm for gerbils and a hamster. All the wheels run quietly and are well-received by their little inhabitants. I would buy them again.

Quiet smooth running wheel
I bought the biggest one 33 cms for my hamster ! It’s like comparing the size of the London eye to my hamster ! She loves it and runs like tha clappers on it. Very quiet, built well and great size. The cork is much thinner that I was expecting but it’s okay for my hammie.

The best
We had a 28cm Trixie pink plastic wheel before, but it was too noisy to sleep with, so we decided to try this one instead. This is a 28cm Trixie wooden wheel, but the difference is huge! No noise at all! And our Syrian hamster can’t get enough of it. With her old wheel she’d only run a bit, then spend the rest of her time chewing the bars of her cage (a pretty big one) but with her new wheel she hasn’t even spared a minute exploring any of the other new toys that we got for her.

Sharp wood cut my hamsters paws.
I bought this wheel after reading many good reviews on the site about it, however after one day of using it I noticed blood in my Syrian hamsters cage and inside the wheel the next morning. Upon further inspection I checked her paws and her feet were cut and sore. Not sure why this happened but after looking at some online forums about this issue, I noticed many other hamster owners had experienced this problem from this particular wheel.

We bought the 33cm wheel for our degus – two of them. Points deducted because one of the wheels was already slightly warped when it arrived. After some time, the running caused it to warp so badly that it was barely usable and ended up breaking. In my opinion, the cork surface slightly reduces claw wear. The fact that it’s not coated doesn’t bother me much, as degus chew through everything anyway, and if it were coated, we wouldn’t have been able to buy it. All in all, recommended.

33cm balance bike is absolutely brilliant!!
The best investment I've made in ages! I bought the 33cm exercise wheels for my gerbils, and they all absolutely love them. They run with straight backs, and even the ones who used to avoid every wheel now use them daily! My two chubby ones have suddenly lost weight and become much more agile! Go for it – you couldn't do anything better for your pets!!!

Happy!
I really love this wheel, its massive and makes my giant hamster look tiny. In a normal syrian sized wheel she is uncomfortable but in this (28cm) one she almost has a flat surface to run on.
The only problem is that the material inside the wheel is cork which is likely to be easily damaged and not easily cleaned. It's also more expensive than other wheels of the same size and I only chose this one for aesthetics.

Changed my life!! (I can sleep now)
Noah my Syrian has had many different types of wheels since he has been with me, and as he lives in my bed room, silence has been my number 1 priority.
Not only is this wheel silent it’s amazing quality, and he totally loves it, he’s barely been off it since I gave him in, don’t waste your money on silent spinners (he’s had two) buy this!! You won’t regret it! I also got plastikote and put several coats on his wheel. This stops any bad odours being absorbed into the wood and it’s easy cleaned

Looks good but wood and see don’t go!
Loved the look of this but my gerbils have decided it’s their toilet while they’re running. It absolutely stinks so I took it out to wash it and it’s broken in one place where it was glued because of washing so I’m going to stick to silent spinners now.

Amazing wheel
So pleased with this, and my hammy LOVES it! It’s practically silent and large enough for my boy to not hurt his back, he runs for hours. No problems with smells or anything as he’s toilet trained and plenty of toys so doesn’t gnaw the wheel. So happy!

Hamster Wheel
Great for the price! It wobbles ever so slightly, but you hardly notice it. My hamster just keeps running, and apart from the sound of his little paws, you don’t hear a thing. I’ve also mounted it on wooden pieces.

Unhygienic item/smelly
This wheel works like a sponge for a pee, it keeps strong smell in it and its very unhygienic.

Amazing quiet wheel!
This wheel is one of the best I’ve found. Very quiet and also looks very nice is a natural themed cage! Or any cage anyway, very reccomend to anyone looking for a nice quiet spacious wheel, would reccomend getting the 28cm one for Syrians though :)

LOVE LOVE LOVE this wheel
wanted to get one of these for a while now, but wasnt able to as it sells out so quickly, and now i know why. i got the large size and its great for my syrian toffee. the minute i put this in his cage they became best friends, he loves it.
my main worry was that the wheel would be noisy but its COMPLETELY silent, ive tried so many different wheels yet this trumps them all. if you wanna get a wheel that both looks good and is quiet, go for this one. looks great and is definetly well built.

Bought two, both amazing!
I use these for both of my Syrian hamsters and they love them! The cork running surface makes it comfortable for them and it's barely audible at all! Also since it's wooden I thought they might chew it, but they've shown no interest in that and I can actually paint and customise it as I please, so that's a big bonus for me!
