Parrot Escape Jumbo Corner Bird Cage Aviary (Small)

Flyline small Corner Bird Cage Aviary. This cage is huge, narrower spacing all around for smaller birds, finches, budgies, canaries, ? small love birds, don't know if they're called conures. Those reviewers who bought this cage for approx $199 for bigger birds is clearly not suitable for large, heavier stronger birds. The ? wires for lack of better term aren't thick & rigid enough to support heavy cups of water & attachments, bird weight climbing on sides, hanging from roof, strong beaks and large claws. So those who rated the smaller cage as feeble for large birds is not fair to manufacturer. The jumbo cage is designed for the big birds & will therefore cost more. Would give scores: 20 stars if possible for design & size 5 stars seller - answered my prepurchase question(s) promptly, received delivery a few days sooner than was due, boxes were factory sealed, undamaged from UPS ground shipping. Quality control from factory prior to packaging lacks some, large pieces undamaged, bottom slide out drawer had a small bend on 1 end but easily adjusted with pliers. Seed skirt surround had 2 minor dents on bottom, not very visible but quickly adjusted w pliers anyway. No missing parts, had a few extra screws left. No inventory list or detailed directions for 1 bag of hardware, screws, long, medium, & short, washers, nuts, 2 tools. The instruction sheet small pics, some details inaccurately pictured. 2 people quicker assembly, seed skirt not possible w 1 person. Being alone, did hardware inventory, matched panel tops w bottoms, zip tied them, lay down on floor sequentially, assembled large panel perpendicular to the other same, flipped to opposite side attached narrower panels perpendicular to floor, put roof, then screwed wheels in when laying down on floor, stood it upright then door, to sliding spades mentioned below, the cup rings, tightened all. Frustrating remaining 2 multiple bar pcs, the metal seed trays, surround skirt. Needing break overnight desperately, created temporary floor with seed screens attached zip ties to highest rung at bottom so birds couldn't get out, paper on top. So grateful in am, son came over to help figure out remaining parts where to attach... The 2 multiple bar supports units go in middle under the floor one above the other, screw the ends to front and back of cage. The lowest bar supports left and right seed trays, the higher supports left and right seed screens. They will slide in and out, the 2 remaining spades go in holes above the seed screens. The longest screws are for assembling the walls, door and roof together. The medium screws are for the stainless dish holders and they do need to be screwed with plate facing downward so bowls clear the frame above & below additionally screws aren't exposed to bird with plate down. Several pieces shaped like a spade in playing cards? are for the single holes above big door, top shelf door, above the 4 doors cup rings, above the 2 seed screens. The washers go behind the spade and in front of hole so the spade hangs more vertically than slightly outward without the washer. With the washer you can tighten screws more but the slider is still easy to open and close. The shortest screws and the nuts (inside) are for the seed surround to attach each side to the next, this step needs 2 people or very difficult alone. Similar cages cost double-triple. I would buy this cage again, would recommend but warn putting together not for the impatient or quitters. Birds are very happy with so much space, we love it, can't get over the design and size for the cost. A+***** I will try to post pictures, until then above long detail should reduce wasted time & frustration.

Like most people said, the instructions left a lot to be desired but with some patience it can be put together quite easily. I’ll admit I did get a lot of help from some of the other reviews (thank you) so if you are struggling look through them and you will figure it all out. I was able to put it together by myself in a few hours minus the seed skirt because that will take 2 people. You definitely want to put the bottom together first and then attach the top pieces instead of following the way the pictures suggest you assemble it. Make sure you have the door hinges on the right and check for screw placements on the top part of the cage with the cage top. Other than that I’d say the seed skirt was the most challenging thing. It arrived in 2 boxes with all parts and pieces. One of the caster legs were bent (it was easily bent back into place) and I couldn’t align one of the screw holes which didn’t effect the overall assembly. As for the cage it’s self, it’s wonderful! For the price it really can’t be beat. I did a lot of shopping around and this is a really good deal. Even though I looked at the dimensions the cage is much bigger than I had pictured as you can see from where I have it in the room. It will be moved to a different corner with a window shortly. For now I’m keeping it where the old cage was until I know my bird is completely happy with it. Speaking of Harley, my Amazon Grey, for the most part she adjusted to her new environment in a little more than a day which made me very happy. She loves the space she now has and seems to really like the top of the cage being flat without an added jungle gym. I made sure to put up more perches so she has many places to sit while getting used to the additional height. Overall I give it 5 stars ⭐️The cage is well worth the crappy installation instructions so it doesn’t seem fair to deduct for that. Harley and I are very happy with it!

I bought this for my GCC who has since passed, so I updated it with my set up for my sun conure. First, the good. The double bowls swing out and are convenient. Note that the top roof does NOT open, and the playtop they refer to is the little sunset above the door. The top is flat and allows for you to make your own play top that can be updated and rearranged, unlike the premade cages with playtops. Conveniently rolls. I roll it out of the corner every morning and sweep underneath, and the mess is gone. I will say that if you plan to leave the door/sunset open, put newspaper underneath. I put a plastic computer chair mat underneath as well. If you're in the market for a cage that's large, functional, and space saving, then don't let the negative comments about the directions deter you. As a 22 year old female who is not inclined in building, I had no trouble whatsoever. It took a little over an hour to assemble by myself. The directions are wordless, but it's mostly common sense. Now, to the bad. As you can see, a couple of my pieces arrived bent (not the makers fault, but the risk you take when shipping). My rectangular grate and seed catcher were bent. A large wall was bent and so was an edge on the roof, but luckily the metal is malleable enough that they bent back into place when I tightened all the screws. The seed catcher underneath is bent there as well. The tool they send to help screw the nuts/wheels was too small to screw in the wheels and I didn't have the tools so I had to waste more time trying to hand twist them in. The horizontal bars are easier bent than I expected. I would not put anything much larger than a conure in it or they will be able to bend the bars. So over all, after taking a moment to work through assembly, it's a great cage. Large, convenient, perfect for conures and similar sized birds. It has potential for a fun playtop. It's easy to clean. Easy to move and not super heavy. Plenty of space! It looks professional. Just be prepared if you're having it shipped that it may not be in pristine condition, but that's the post's fault. You will not find a cage so large and built so well for a cheaper price. Knowing what I know now, I would still buy this again!

Okay, the reviews on this cage are mixed, scary and a bit confusing, but I needed a larger cage, so I took a chance. I am so glad I did. First of all, I am a 61 year old female. I'm not sure why people complain about the instructions. I decided to try to surprise my husband, by at least starting the assembly, so he didn't have to do it all after working all day. I was able to assemble it using the instructions and not the video that the reviews suggested. I had it completely assembled and needed no help. I'm no genius, so I'm not seeing the issue here. We did have a small hiccup, one panel was drilled wrong and the door latch was broken. I contacted them immediately and they quickly sent the parts and Ben was absolutely wonderful to work with. Great communication and very prompt on getting the issue solved! There was mention that there was a huge gap at the bottom of the cage. Reading that almost made me scroll on by as I wanted this cage for our cockatiel and a very small parakeet. There is no gap at all. The only thing I can think of is they have the grate in the same track as the tray, but there is a separate track for the Grate up higher. What I'm not crazy about is the size of the dishes. They are very deep. Our tiny parakeet would have to turn upside down to eat and drink. We opted to not use the hardware or the bowls. We had 4oz stainless bowls and holders that had a bolt on them to attach to the cage. We just put the bolt through the top hole in the door and placed the bowl in the holder. If I can find some shallow dishes, we may end up going that route later on. All in all, it's a super nice cage. It's beautiful and spacious for our birdies. It's well made, attractive and we are very pleased with the purchase. It's easy to clean and have no complaints.

Difficult to put together, poor institutions as they do not even show where the screws are supposed to go and what part is used where. Cage material came bent in many places. My parrot seems to love it though.

For the size and quality of the cage I think this is a wonderful choice, I’m very happy with it and with one person helping assembly is not too bad. I’d only drop it one star bc the pieces really should be labeled with stickers and have matching joints marked, it would make assembly very easy and go much faster. Since the instructions are vague, the main things to keep in mind when assembling: 1) you WILL need to lightly hit the alignment of joints into the proper angle. If you have a rubber mallet, use that or something like a dowel to not damage the metal. Personally, I do not consider this a manufacturing error, the margin for error is pretty small, and the material is flexible enough that it is very easy to lightly tap the interlocking joints to angle more outwards or inwards which allows them to slide together very easily and still fit snug. Personally I’d rather have the fit be tight and need me to widen the angle slightly than to have everything be loose, so I think this is fine. 2) Assembly instructions are vaaaague, this is the biggest flaw. Also they kind of have you assemble it in a weird order. There’s several pieces that matter whether they face in or out/what side they go on, which is not great when they aren’t labeled, bc you get halfway through and realize you have to flip something. Personally, I would not follow the directions and instead assemble the top half of the cage (not including the door/front panel), the bottom half of the cage (still not including the door) and then put those two together, then do the door/front panel last. It’s a lot easier that way, and you won’t get as turned around. While the instructions were vague, it also really wasn’t hard. Took me and my partner like an hour to do, and that’s with some mess ups. The screws were all good, the threading on the receiving holes was really good , and it comes with enough extras if you lose one you’ll be fine. If you’re putting it together following good assembly practices, loosely put the screws in, not in a line but at farthest points working in, then once everything’s in tighten them down, the alignment is really pretty great for the price. I only had one screw that was slightly off center which for a cage this big is a miracle. Overall I’m very satisfied and my bird loves it! Very spacious for an African red belly, it’s a decadent choice for a smaller/medium size parrot, but the bar spacing is still safe. All in all I’d give it 4.5/5

This is much flimsier and cheaper made than expected for $300. It arrived thrown inside a simple cardboard box without any protection and inside the pieces were loose with only a thin piece of plastic wrap on the top of one piece. It's obvious all these bent pieces and parts didn't get that way in shipping. They were like that when they went into the box. Holes aren't drilled properly and are way too big for the screws. There are holes without any threads. The pieces are so bent it won't even go together. If I'd seen this in person I wouldn't have given $50 for it. Absolute junk. Waste of time and money. Useless. And the instructions are a total joke. Worst purchase ever.

I love this cage! There is so much room for toys and perches and room for them to fly around. They love the cage so much that they don’t really want to come out to play on top of it when I leave it open. The entry door is huge, making it easy for them to return after a flight around the room. The only thing I wish is that there were a couple more access doors at the back because it is hard to hang things in the back. You need two people if you want to hang something from the back. My husband assembled it for me. The bottom pans were slightly bent but he put a piece of wood on them and used a mallet to put them back in shape and now they are fine. It is probably designed for larger birds but I am housing two parakeets in it and it is so roomy for them. It could easily accommodate more parakeets if you had more. My two boys use the entire cage from top to bottom. Although the cage is large AND heavy, it easily rolls for cleaning behind and around it. It shipped quickly. I have no regrets with this purchase and do recommend it.
