Niteangel Visible Hamster Digging Box for Syrian Dwarf Roborovski Campbell Hamsters Gerbils Mice Lemmings Degus or Other Small-Sized Pets

Awesome packaging, everything you need to assemble and awesome tools, product quality is top notch! Highly recommend and will buy from this company again!

I have so many things from niteangel. All are fantastic. This allows burrowing without them kicking it all over the place. Now their setup looks like an old Mario game haha.

Great for helping my hamster start burrowing

This dig box is a winner! My Syrian Duncan loves it and it’s cool to watch him sleep. I used non toxic glue to glue moss to the lid and it came out really cool. Added NiteAngel Cork Granules and put forage mix inside. This will be a staple for me going forward with enclosures :)

I was looking at building one of these myself as I need a better enclosed sandbath and wanted to experiment with their preference in bedding material. When I saw this I bought two of them without hesitation due to the Niteangel name. Initial impression when I unpacking left me impressed. Because it is Niteangel I am going to assume that the composite boards, glue, and tape are rodent safe. Even so I would of liked to see a solid wood. The color instruction booklet and included tools were nice. The instructions where mostly clear but left it unclear when to install the screws. While the instructions say to fit everything then flip it over to install the screw offsets and screws, the wood does not fit tight enough for this to happen. I found it is better to install each side panel, remembering to use the offset sticks before screwing each side panel together. The offsets are well done, but would of preferred if the screws were flush so the box could sit flat rather than be slightly raised. While the sides were labeled the front or back of the base would of been helpful, though not hard to identify. The stickers on the sides should be placed on the outside not the inside to make removal easier after final assembly. Assembly was easy. Holes were well aligned and properly drilled, though the screwdriver was a slightly different size then the screws. Otherwise tolerances and quality of construction was high. It would of been nice if the screws sat flush. The glue was of substandard quality. One of the tubes had become separated into a clear liquid and a hard white substance. Mixing inside of the tube was impossible. The second tube from the other box spurted and uneven application. Resorted to using my own wood glue to ensure a tight seal. I would not trust the enclosed glue and would use the included screws instead. Removing the protective cover from the acrylic was the hardest part due to the way it was cut. While the acrylic looks nice, to be gerbil safe for chewing and durability from scratches I will be replacing it with glass. The acrylic should not be chewable but the lid does not lock into place so there is always a chance of the edge becoming exposed.

So unlike all of the other niteangel products I’ve bought this one does need to be assembled but it is pretty quick and easy assembly. There are six main pieces and the box can either be glued together or screwed in together, and it comes with both screws and glue. It also comes with a screwdriver, tape and two wood pieces for when screwing it in. Instructions on how to construct it are included as well.

Easy assembly, plenty big. We put a mix of cork and cocofiber inside and our Syrian digs it (literally). LOL

I thought the front would be clear. Good quality though.

Perfect edition for my gerbils 40 gallon tank... Very sturdy.

this is in too many pieces for me to assemble. arthritis prohibits me....great idea just not for me
