What are you like, ha ha ha ?
I hope Kiwi's as happy as you are with the cage? I have just purchased a Montana for Plum and it is very disappointing in terms of quality. I couldn't let Plum be a free range parrot I'd have no plaster on the walls or wood door surrounds but he'd be one happy parrot.
Kiwi loves his cage! He made himself right at home as soon as I got out of it lol. Then he figured out how to remove the breeder door and became free range I know not every bird can be free range though. Alfie the G2 escaped once when no one was home and when my dad returned, he thought he had been burglarized. That tiny bird ransacked the house and could well have burnt it down because he turned the stove on then ripped the knobs off. Kiwi, on the other hand, sticks to his area and we can leave him for hours on end and he is totally fine. My moms amazons are the same way, though she still puts them up when she leaves since they are flighted and roam. Every bird/home is different, but it's a consideration for some.
I was actually really surprised that a "generic" no brand cage like ours is as nice as it is. It is well constructed heavy wrought iron and the coating is nice. I think it'll last a long time. We've had it about a year and a half now, no chips, no rust (his old A&E cage was already starting to form chips and rust before a year).
