    They are amazing! They have a long wait time but honestly the quality of their cages are worth it, with great customization options! Ali is great with answering questions and bouncing ideas off of so I've only had pleasant interactions! I got a T12 with LED lights, sliding glass doors and locks and I am absolutely thrilled with it! I will always and forever recommend Animal Plastics in full confidence!

    Other PVC cage makers that are often suggested, (though I have had no personal experience with) are Boaphile Plastics and pvccages.

    It's an old coffee table. Exactly 4x2 so it worked out perfectly. I put the two 2x2 end tables together and put my other 4ft cages on them.

    As JM mentioned they just updated the website. Talked with Ali about it and they do it in house so no fancy fancy to save money. It was also nice that they didn't increase enclosure pricing as planned when they did the update.

    I've heard boaphile (no personal experience) and the vision (personal experience with one I borrowed) enclosures may sag - no issues with my AP's yet.

    I have a T8, i absolutely love it. Theyre really easy to put together and super cheap for how well they are made. Only downside was the wait time. i give it a 10/10

    Holy buckets mate!!

    Half the forum that keeps snakes uses AP.

    Two fine examples above.

    Plenty of other good options but AP makes good stuff.

    Look at what you find appealing and user friendly.

    In reality they are plastic boxes and all can be modified to your liking usually.
