    Vision products enclosures vs animal plastics

    I was just wondering if anyone had a preference when it came to plastic enclosures towards either the vision products or animal plastics. Personally I've only been around the vision tanks, so I can't say I have a preference, but I do like that the animal plastics enclosures appear to be more easily customized to fit one's needs. So the question really is what is your preference and why?

    Love my Animal Plastics enclosures. They're crafted very well and they look great! Vision cages look a little too industrial for my taste.

    The vision cages look really nice but I love my AP cages. They're affordable, look great, easy to assemble, and very well made. The customer service was great too. My only issue with AP is their shipping times. My T8s shipped within 3 weeks but the T10s can take up to 10 weeks to ship.

    Having had both, I prefer AP, they seem to retain heat and humidity much better, furthermore, they do not sag when stacked. Visions are a bit harder to clean, but can be nice cages once the vents are somewhat covered. AP seem easier to clean as they lack the groves that are present in the bottom of the Vision cages. I also like the fact I can get black or white, that off color gray is just odd looking to me. My only knock on the AP Cages is that you can "ding" them much easier than the Vision's by accidentally knocking them while moving them around or during assembly. Also you do have to assemble AP Cages vs. paying more for shipping on Visions.

    Cheers,

    Rob

    That grey color is just off-putting.
    Much prefer white or black.

    I've only used AP cages as well, but love them.
