The heavy-duty metal stand allows for give, protecting your pet from joint pain caused by running on a hard, fixed surface. This adds stability since it keeps the wheel attached to a wall or ceiling of your hamster’s habitat. A dwarf hamster would probably run in it easily, but I'd be a bit concerned that the holes are so large they might try and jump out and hit the side.They probably could, but I'd imagine it would be quite difficult for them I'd choose an 8 inch wheel if you want to upgrade as this would be much easier for a dwarf, particularly a robo, to use. It's quiet, doesn't scrape or squeak, and my hamster's back doesn't bend when he runs on it(something that was really important to me).

However as mentioned it would have to be a very good wheel that's easy enough for a dwarf of any species to spin,and the Silent Runner already mentioned meets that criteria.It's one of the most quiet hamster wheels available and can either be attached to a cage wall or freestanding as it comes with it's own stand. com) and the owners, cannot accept liability for any loss incurred by the use of information provided on this site or the content of any external sites to which it is linked.

I always prefer non-wooden from a cleaning perspective so then you're mostly left with the Trixie which I don't personally love from an aesthetics point of view (and reviews are quite mixed on whether quiet/silent or not).

Like you said, you could use the 20cm Karlie but to save plastikoting, you could use a 20cm trixie wheel.

An 11" diameter wheel is suitable for most Syrian hamsters, but some particularly large Syrians may need a 12" wheel. They all had the karlie but apart from Mabel peed on it and even though i did 3 coats of plasti-kote they still got ruined. I wasn’t keen on the smooth surface for running (although people could add cork) and I couldn't tell from the photos whether there were any gaps at the back.
