Looks like an alright cage, although I'm not a fan of the double grates and trays. Just feels like more cleaning to me.

That's actually a pretty good deal and a nice sized cage but a single tray and a single grate would of been better as my macaw cage is single tray and grate with the same width and length. But I can't see the locking mechanism part as they won't let you increase the size any bigger or clear.....That's the part that's important to me when deciding on cage purchase for Willie. And I dunno how I feel that there's no screws or nuts to hold the cage together???

I have a huge Ferret Nation cage that assembles with no screws/bolts and it's very solid, I love it. Also super easy come cleaning time, you can take it all apart or take off sections in seconds to take outside to clean.

I'm not sure I'd use a ferret nation cage for a macaw... granted I haven't seen one of these cages in person so I'm not positive but I'm guessing a macaw could make short work of the bars if he wanted out. You need the right bar gauge for a macaw or he could rip the cage apart. Gotta love those beaks:52:

I don't think anyone meant to place a macaw in a ferret nation cage.... but it was more about the comment of bolt-free cages that require no screwdrivers to assemble.
