Marvelous Bird Cages

I notice recently that many sites that sell bird cages offer a new bird cages brand Marvelous Cages.
I’m in love and impressive of their design. But I’ve never seen these bird cages live in the local PetStore. They offer for sale 9-10 models.
Has anyone heard of these? Does anyone have one? Are they nice? What’s about quality, design, company or something! Thank’s friends.
Please share your impressions. In particular: I chose this cage:

I have the 13221 HQ Flight cage and like the fact it has an upper door and lower door. The birds go to the top and I can feed/clean from the bottom. It is roomy and the birds enjoy the space to fly. I currently have Gold Breast in it.

It works well for parrotlets also.

Very nice cage! I like the two tone finish and the storage area underneath. The playtop feature might come in handy if you ever use that cage for a parrot.

I have the HQ single flight cage (the one you see on special at the upper left of the site you listed and I love it because it is easy to clean...has 2 doors and with the flat top I can set the Heat Lamp and the light unit on it. Just some things to consider.

Another thing I noticed with my cage being white....it does hide the bird's poops but it is harder to see the birds. A darker color shows off the birds better I feel.

But if you like that cage then that is what you should get. :D

I would prefer that cage for a small hookbill. The size (24x22) is not great for finches, as they like as much horizontal space as possible. Of course, horizontal space is also harder to fit into our living spaces. :lol:

The HQ single flight is much better for finches (32x21). I have both dark and light colors--the dark colors show off the birds better, the light colors hide the poop better. And the HQ single flight is cheaper than the other cage.

The one for $64.99 is quite a bit smaller. The large is closer to the HQ width and depth, just taller, but it is $149.99. Better off with the HQ single, IMO.

I agree with Sally. I debated ordering the one from F&S but passed. HQ cages do hold up well, I have had this for years, it has been used off and on and stored. The one from Fosters&Smith appears flimsy but might due for a baby flight.
