is this suitable for a big Syrian hamster?

I don't know anything about hamsters. I bought this for my grand daughter's rats and ther is more than enough room for the two of them to be happy.

The tubes on this cage are too small for a Syrian hamster. Habitrail has an OVO cage for the Syrian that is exactly like this one but the tubes are larger.

IDK if I'd choose it for a syrian unless its super fat and doesn't like to escape, I have it for my bunny. I also have a full grown and fat syrian named rosa who like to escape and I know even as fat as she is I wouldn't trust her in it.

This is a very large cage. A hamster would be able to escape through the widely spaces bars. I'd look for something smaller with a tighter grid :)

Probably so if it is pretty fat but if a hamster can collapse its body like a mouse, maybe not. It is a very large cage. It does well for our rabbit.

It could fit either hamster. I have one syrian/teddy bear hamster, and she fits perfectly in her home.

I bought one for our teddy bear hamster, and I returned it. I didn't think there was nearly enough room with all the other stuff on the interior of this cage. Do not recommend it for larger hamsters.

Yes, hamsters are pretty flexible. I can fit my hand through the slots through the door. I would say it's even too big for a guinea pig.

We have a dwarf hamster and the wheel is great for him. I am not that familiar though with other types of hamsters. The diameter of the wheel is 6 inches across if that helps.

You could use this. The space between the grates is narrow enough that a hamster (I think) couldn't squeeze through. Honestly I think this may be taller than what you need for a hamster but if you have the space I guess it doesn't matter.

Yes, but it depends on the hamster. A bigger hamster may require the next size up. If you get this twice, sorry. Hope this helps.

This is just right for a Golden Hamster. Habitrail makes another for dwarfs and I can't quite think of the name, but you can identify it because the tubing is significantly narrower. Hammy should enjoy this home. :)

I think it would be too big for a hamster unless it was a pretty big hamster. It is relatively small, but I don't believe it is that small! May a guinea pig size...

Yes! We have 2 large Siberian hamsters in ours, it's great!! Plenty of room!

I wouldnt recommend it for a teddy bear hamster that usually is the size of your whole hand. He wouldn't be able to enjoy it for play, eat, sleep and pee/poop in just this one.

some syrian hamsters are small and some are very big and long. this wheel can fit a small syrian hamster. the best thing i can recommend is to take your syrian hamster to the nearest pet store and see which wheel is most compatible. you may end up getting a traditional wheel for your syrian hamster. petland discounts carries habitrail products, not crittertrail products. petco and petsmart carry crittertrail products, not habitrail products. most of petland discounts' hamster wheels come out of of the package so you can compare their size with your syrian hamster's size. habitrail products are available at petland discounts and they have excellent wheels for syrian hamsters! if you live nearest a petco or petsmart and if they have this crittertrail hamster wheel, i suggest you ask the store employee if you can open the box and see if the wheel fits your hamster. good luck!

Absolutely, a long haired hamster would love this cage! We would not recommend this cage for dwarf hamsters or any small hamster. Our hamster is a Syrian short hair and has plenty of room and can not fit through the bars. The cage is easy to clean and put back together. Happy hamstering!
