Rank #8 in Best Hamster Cage 2026: 10 Ranked by Real Floor Space
PawHut 3-Tier Hamster Cage with Glass Base, 60 x 40 x 54.5 cm
Price and rating as shown on Amazon when we collected them. Both change.
The PawHut 3 Tiers Hamster Cage is number 8 in this guide. It is sold as a cage for dwarf hamsters at £63.65, with a three-tier layout and a running wheel, ramps, a hut, a bowl and a water bottle listed as included. The dimensions given are 54.5H x 60L x 40W cm, which works out at about 0.24 m2 of floor — more than the 0.18 m2 of the Rosewood Pico further up this list, and less than half the 0.5 m2 the BUCATSTATE 3.0 states outright for its 100 x 50 cm model. PawHut never does that sum itself, and it is another listing here that names no bedding depth at all: the only mention of how deep the base can be filled comes from buyers, not from the specification.
The name on the listing says dwarf hamster, but the bullet underneath widens it to "Syrian hamsters, dwarf hamster, gerbils and other small pets", and the Breed Recommendation field reads Syrian Hamsters, Dwarf Hamsters. One row, Dog Breed Size, reads "Small" — a dog measurement sitting in a hamster cage listing. The 4.3 out of 5 comes from 278 ratings, while the five rating bars on the page add up to 100, so read those bars as percentages rather than as counts. Everything here is taken from the Amazon listing for this cage — its bullets, its specification fields and its customer reviews — and not from any testing of our own.

What buyers actually say
Quoted from customer reviews on Amazon
Verified purchase“This is so sturdy and having had a hamster chew through a previous cage - there no way it gets out of this one and she doesn't chew anything! So much space and really safe. It's quite heavy but easy to clean and lovely! We love it!”
Verified purchase“Our hamster is very happy in this environment. Lots of depth to fill right up and allows him to burrow”

Questions people ask
How big is the PawHut 3 Tiers Hamster Cage?
The listing gives 54.5H x 60L x 40W cm, which works out at about 0.24 m2 of floor space. The name calls it a cage for dwarf hamsters, while Breed Recommendation lists Syrian Hamsters and Dwarf Hamsters.
Does the listing state a bedding depth?
No. Unlike the BUCATSTATE 3.0 in this guide, the PawHut listing gives no bedding depth figure. The only related detail is the Item Highlight field, which describes a "Deep Glass Bottom", and the overall height of 54.5 cm.
What is included with the cage?
The Included Components field lists Bowl, Exercise Wheels, Hut, Ramp and Water Bottle. The first bullet describes the same three-tier layout: a running wheel, ramps and a hut.
Is the PawHut cage suitable for Syrian hamsters?
Yes, as listed. The final bullet says it is suitable for Syrian hamsters, dwarf hamster, gerbils and other small pets, and Breed Recommendation confirms Syrian Hamsters and Dwarf Hamsters.
What is the bar spacing?
The specification lists Gap Size: 10 mm. That is the only wire measurement given — the bullet only says "spaced wires keep air flowing", with no figure attached.
How is the PawHut cage rated?
4.3 out of 5 from 278 ratings. The five rating bars add up to 100, so they read as percentages rather than as counts of the 278.
