 More Bang for the buck.Feb 29, 2008
By Lao Che
We've gone on our second 12" Silent Spinner Wheel in less than a year. It is fairly silent at first, then gets slowly louder and louder. It's not deafening by any means, nor is it of any real bother. It just isn't the "silent spinner" that is advertised. We use it for our hedgehog (she weighs less than 260 grams) -- and she loves it. My real concern is that the yellow knob on the inside of the wheel continues to loosen and pop off, causing the wheel to slip away from the mount. I'm not sure if it is a design flaw or we just get defective merchandise? It is properly mounted to the side of the cage according to instructions and not obstructed in anyway. Luckily, our hedgie hasn't been hurt by this problem. For the money, I would expect the wheel to be much more durable than it is -- compared to other wheels on the market. The stresses our hedgehog exerts is no more than any other small animal, and the wheel seems to be capable of withstanding much more. I've written an e-mail to customer support at Super Pet to get some answers regarding this issue. Hopefully, if it is a design flaw, they will resolve it. Until then, I would look elsewhere for an exercise wheel. Hope this helps any potential buyers.

 It hurt my little girl!Apr 13, 2009
By accordiongal
When I got this wheel for my hamster, I thought it was great. Cute, quiet, made her run like the wind. Then I saw the little blood prints all inside the wheel and her cage. Checked her out and found that one of her feet had a layer of skin scraped off. I could be wrong but I am pretty sure it was from one of the grooves where the 2 sections of plastic click together. They are pretty sharp. It is disappointing that this didn't work out. Now I have a truly solid wheel with nothing that can hurt her. Too bad it can wake the dead. The sacrifices we make for our rodents.

 Truely Silent!Jul 22, 2007
By C. Cubberly
I have a hedgehog (who is 100% nocturnal) and she adores her wheel! This is absolutely a SILENT wheel. I had one previously that was somewhat quiet but this one has been improved (it is a little more sturdy) and is so silent I worry that she's not getting her exercise because I can't hear her at night! I have to check on her sometimes to be sure!

Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R2CJQ9X96801UF This is a great wheel. I sleep next to my Robo hamsters and the wheel never wakes me up, it is silent. I put newspaper under the carefresh bedding I use and it never touches the glass to make tapping noises. It does stay where its supposed to and gets used to the max. The only con to this wheel is if the hamster stops on the wheel suddenly it will flip around the wheel 10 times before flying out. Speed regulator would be nice.

Not for ChinchillasMar 26, 2011
By Teresa
While the idea of this wheel is genius, I do not recommend it at all for chinchillas. While it seemed a great size at first for my young chinchilla, he really outgrew it in no time - not only that, but because it was plastic, he began to chew it apart (which is not good, because plastic causes intestinal blockage for chinchillas). I immediately removed it, and purchased a metal wheel specifically designed for chinchillas. It may have been more pricey, and certainly not whisper quiet, but I haven't had to buy a new one due to him chewing it up or outgrowing (both he and I have been happy with the metal wheel for at least 2 years now!).
