The Ferplast Favola hamster cage is a solidly built plastic hamster cage. The cage dimensions provide roughly 2,190 cm2 of floor space (with an additional floor built in) which is not particularly big for a Syrian hamster.
One of the best features of this cage is the deep base section which is 15 cm tall which is perfect if you have a hamster that loves to burrow.
As is usual with hamster cages the wheel that comes free with the cage is a bit small for an adult Syrian hamster, as is only 6 inches, but it can be removed and the cage will easily take an 8 inch wheel, and according to one reviewer could just about take an 11 inch wheel at a pinch.
Another nice feature is that with a clear base tray you can see your hamster in the bottom as he plays about.
A couple of drawbacks of the Ferplast Favola are that with the solid plastic tray dividing the cage in half vertically you're left with a limited amount of headroom in the top section (about 10 cm) for toys etc which could be a bit limiting if you like to use different bits of equipment for your hamster.
That said this cage does have the benefit of being modular and so can be expanded with Ferplast accessories in order to add on extra space for your hamster.
Also the only access to the cage is through a single door located in the top of the wire mesh cage section. This only causes a problem if you're trying to handle your hamster when he's in the bottom section.
