This looks good but in theory it's poorly made. When you put the hooks in it just tilts forward so the rabbits can't sit on it, you have to move the hooks off the batten and put them in the back to get it to sit straight. Can't be bothered to send it back so will have to make do!

The hayrack looks nice, but it's made from very cheap wood and poorly finished.

Poor workmanship, I personally wouldn't buy it again.

I chose this hay rack because it has a lid, which prevents the rabbits from jumping in and getting hurt. Unfortunately, my two didn’t like the rack very much; every time I filled it, they pulled all the hay out and only ate it off the floor afterwards.

Encouraged by the image of the two rabbits in the outdoor enclosure, I purchased this hayrack for my rabbits' run. However, apart from being used solely as a seating spot (the hay I filled it with was completely ignored – yet they ate from a regular hayrack without any issues), it only looked nice until the first rain. Once it got wet, it warped immediately, and the individual layers of the lid peeled off slice by slice (well, it was only plywood!). So, the thing ended up in the bin after a relatively short time. Conclusion: absolutely useless for outdoor use and therefore useless for us. Such a shame – that's one way to waste your money...

The idea is great. For outdoor use, you should apply wood protection, and unfortunately, the thing isn’t really sturdy – after just a few days, the lid fell off. I’d buy another one because it’s quite practical for outdoor use, but not for nearly €10.

At first, I was totally thrilled with this hay rack because the rabbits can sit on top of it without dirtying the hay. However, as soon as I hang it in the cage, my rabbits tear it down and gnaw it to bits. It doesn’t take long before the bars start falling out... The hay doesn’t stay clean either, as my rabbits scratch everything out, so the hay ends up on the floor and gets dirty quickly. My rabbits seem to love tearing this hay rack down, gnawing it, and throwing it around the cage :(

The hayrack has now been completely dismantled into its individual parts—not by me, but by our rabbit. She never sat on it; instead, she pulled the hay out through the roof, and the rack often ended up lying in the cage. Well, at some point, she started gnawing on the wood, so I had to remove the rack because nails and splinters were sticking out everywhere. All in all, next time I’d prefer a hayrack made of metal.

The workmanship is mediocre to poor, with nails sticking out. The edges are so sharp that you can hurt yourself on them, and you can also get splinters. I had to file down all the edges. And maybe a coat of paint would be a good idea – as delivered, these things are absolutely unsuitable for a guinea pig enclosure (sharp edges, not urine-resistant, etc.). And the racks are crooked as well. For the price, it's not entirely okay, but acceptable.

The hay rack itself is nice, but the attachment to the cage isn’t sufficient to support the rabbits climbing on top, as it’s too unstable for that. I expected more.

Well, I also started by screwing the hooks into the visible holes, of course, it hung crooked... but after a small, insignificant adjustment to the hooks (just over the crossbar), everything looks pretty good now... I ordered two straight away... so far, I'm thrilled!!

The hay rack is very pretty and practical in itself. One of my rabbits also likes to hop up and use the platform as a lookout. However, here's the catch: on the very first day, one of the hinges connecting the lid to the base broke off because the lid is made of simple chipboard and doesn't seem to withstand even light use. Quite disappointing, really.

My rabbits chewed through the hay rack in no time. The bars fell out, making the hay rack unusable. Such a shame, it was a lovely piece.

We ordered the hay rack for our little bunnies because it was the only one with a "lid". However, we were very disappointed as the hinge for the lid/seating board fell off after opening it just three times! I ended up fixing it myself using an extra piece of wood and better screws. Other than that, the hay rack is good!

For rabbits, it seems to be quite useful. However, it’s not particularly suitable for an outdoor enclosure as it hasn’t been painted. Additionally, the hay rack wasn’t properly assembled; the hinges on the right side aren’t screwed in, and the screws are completely missing!!

I bought the hay rack for my guinea pigs. The workmanship of the hay rack is poor. Additionally, the wood is very thin, which means the lid can sit slightly raised due to its low weight and the hay underneath. If the hay rack is mounted higher on the wire cage, it hangs crooked because of the protruding hooks. The sitting platform cannot be used by the guinea pigs as the rack is too high, even when placed on the ground. Still, it's a good idea.

The hayrack looks very promising in the picture... We have two of these hayracks, and neither of them is particularly well-made. For the price, it's OK. With a bit of DIY skill, you can attach new fittings and hinges, which makes the whole thing a bit sturdier.

The thing is completely flimsy and it already arrived broken. The hinges on the lid are absolutely useless. Had to fix it myself. And the hay is really hard to get out. My two rabbits have to tug at it quite a bit.

I attached the hay rack to my rabbits' cage and noticed this evening that one of the hinges on the lid has broken off. I only received the rack yesterday evening, so it didn’t even last a full day. The workmanship leaves a lot to be desired. On the plus side, it’s practical that it’s completely enclosed, so no hay falls out. However, the bars are very close together, meaning the rabbits have to pull hard to get the hay out, which causes an incredible amount of noise as the rack bangs against the cage bars.

This thing is put together really flimsy, the bars are so close together that you constantly have to pull the hay out by hand, and the wood splinters if it gets damaged. I'm not impressed at all—there are definitely better ways to give your pet a lookout platform and stop them from sitting in the hay rack.
