Cage

What would be good for a hamster cage?

I am adopting a Syrian hamster, and i was wondering what type of cage would be best for her. I dont want a crittertail (?) or an aquarium. I would prefer a wired one. Do you have any suggestions? please incluse pictures... The reason I dont like Crittertails is because all the hamsters i have had before found a way out of them and i find them cheaply made.

1. this may be expensive, but this is a good, trusty cage that I use, and it's really fun to watch your hampster in it. and you dont even need to add tubes because this cage is so nice that the hamster already has lots of fun stuff to do. here is the link. its reallybig http://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/601-5789718-3844151?ASIN=B000CQBV78&AFID=Froogle&LNM=B000CQBV78|Jack_62_Hamster_Resort_Cage&ci_src=14110944&ci_sku=B000CQBV78&ref=tgt_adv_XSG10001

4. why don't you want a crittertail? crittertail and habitrail are made specifically for hamsters and gerbils. they are the best cages you can buy for a hamster. if you have something against crittertail try this cage http://www.bigappleherp.com/Hagen-Habitrail-Ovo-Suite;jsessionid=0a0109441f43b32ff5c5283948bdb623ea16dbc2df14.e3eTaxmKbNaNe34Pa38Ta38Lc3b0?sc=19&category=5003 hamsters are natural tunnelers and need tubes to roam through habitrail and crittertrail are perfect for this they come with tubes and have expansion ports for endless expansion to your little buddies home.
