Best cricket keeper availible
Brilliant. Much better for housing crickets than the 'keeper', with the poles in it, which I have two of. The poles make cleaning the tank so tricky. This one is great. It's huge and my crickets live and thrive much better in this one. It's really easy to clean and the lid magnifies what is inside, so it's easy to see what's in the tank. My only gripe is the opening hatch. It has a unique slide and click mechanism to lock it which is much better than the usual clip down lids, BUT when you slide the lid back to open it, there is nothing to grab to lift it with. Just an indent to put a finger in and it is lifted by applying pressure back and up (if that makes sense). My finger always slips off so I have to use feeding tongs to slip into the gap between the hatch and the fitted lid so I can lift the hatch. Also, once the lid is lifted, it always without fail falls off. All it needs is a bit of plastic at the front to act as a barrier to it falling out the slots the 'hinge' sits in. Why this is missing I have no idea. You could just stick a cocktail stick or a pipe cleaner across this hinge bit to stop the hatch from falling off and that's what I'll do. It's not a big deal, but just seems silly that the hatch comes completely off the lid. It's annoying when you're trying to clean the inside or collect feeder crickets as you have to hold the hatch at the same time. Apart from that it's better than other makes and the smaller versions have a separate little hatch, presumably for feeding an animal if you keep it in one of these. Personally I only use these for feeder insects and I would never house a pet in a plastic carrier like this i.e. a reptile or Tarantula as they're completely unsuitable for that.

Great product, but maybe handle with care?
This terrarium is great for my two baby African Land Snails. I really love the design, especially the secure "peephole" on top. The plastic is really clear, and I can see my little snails at all times, which is great. The only reason why I haven't given this 5 stars is because I'm not sure about the quality of the plastic. It looks thick and sturdy enough, yes, but it seems to me like it's the kind that may crack easily. The first time I ordered the terrarium, it had a crack running through one of its corners, despite the fact it had been packaged quite tightly. I returned it, and got a replacement. This time around, the Amazon staff did an even better job of packing it (it really was impeccably secured), but the terrarium still had some scratches here and there. Now, I don't know if this is due to warehouse storing and/or handling, but it does suggest to me that the plastic used for the terrarium may not be the best.Still, I'm happy with it so far and, as I said, the design is lovely, and the size is just right for my current needs. It also seems to keep enough heat and humidity in, while also being properly ventilated, which is just what I was hoping for for my snails.

Lid not great
Lid is flimsy hard to pull the clear top part up becareful not to trap the animal in the lid

Good choice for baby snails
Bought this for my baby Giant African Land Snails. Be aware that although the length states 39cm, this is for the widest part of the tank and it does taper towards the bottom. The viewing window in the lid is nice but it does scratch easily so doesn't provide a clear view for long. There is a lot of ventilation, so if using for snails you may need to block some of the vents to help increase temperature and humidity. I like that there are corners in the lid that you can remove to enable you to fit a temperature probe in. This is especially useful if you will be using a heat mat with a thermostat for your tank. The lid needs a bit of adjustment to make sure it is well fitted when you remove it. I also found it awkward to open the viewing hatch at first as it needs a lot of pressure and it feels like it might break - but hasn't so far. Overall, this makes a good nursery for baby snails but fully grown ones will require one much larger. It could be suitable for other pets, but check the measurements are appropriate before purchase.

Misleading measurements, unstable lid
I bought this tank for my Giant African Land Snails. The biggest problem is that the measurements are misleading. The sides do taper down to the base but even the widest part is not massively accurate. The other problem is the lid. It doesn't secure properly and I have to weigh it down with a heavy book as it is so unstable. I also never use the roof window as I have to put so much pressure on it when opening that I'm scared I'll break something. Beware of using this for snails as it has a lot of ventilation which prevents the tank from staying at a good humidity level; I had to tape up some of the vents. Overall, the lid really lets it down and I would advise against using this tank for snails.

Side clips aren't the best
I'm using this to keep dubai roaches in, only downside is the sides of the tub doesn't clip down very well so have used tape to make sure they don't escape.

Great
Bought this for my tarantula and I love it! The acrylic walls are super clear so very easy to see my gorgeous boy going about his spider business, the lid is really sturdy too so no worried about any escapes! The door on the top is a little stiff but assuming that will loosen over time but no issue if it doesn't as it's extra escape proof. Great piece of kit will definitely be buying more for my other spiders
