The concept of the Silent wheel is pretty much the same to Crittertails wheel. But Critters makes A LOT of noise,rattling of the cage. Wondering if Silent Wheel will silent things up or would it still be the same? If theres anyone out there that has [had] a Crittertail wheel and bought a Silent wheel,this would help soo much. thank in advance hamster owners )
stop by one of the brake shops and watch.
I've never had a crittertail wheel, but I definitely know what you mean about the creaking and rattling while it hits the bars. There are two types of silent wheels I know about - freestanding and ones that fasten to the side of the cage. The one that goes to the side of the cage will have the same problem - there's not enough space between it and the bars. The one that is freestanding has fewer issues - provided it isn't knocked over. :) Hope I helped a bit! :)
i once got a silent wheel attached to the bar of the cage and problem is that my chubby hamster was weighing it down to touch the bar and it makes a lot of noises too even without touching the bar, i also tested with the stand on the silent wheel and even worse!!! it kept bending down and make more squeaks than before. i think it would work for smaller pets that aren't heavy. my friend who has those grid wire wheels1s make the least noise cuz it is very sturdy and can't touch the side of the cage.
