Sauzo, I appreciate you sharing your experience and input. Nothing beats real world use and insight into a product. As I said, I'm surprised but I don't have my own experience to draw from with Ed's cages. For my permanent enclosures he was my top choice but I had not gotten to that point yet.
As for Nick's recommendation, it was between him and me and he was pretty straight with everything else so I did put weight into his thoughts based on his experience and expertise.
That being said, everyone has a different take and I certainly appreciate yours. Guess I'm back to the drawing board so I will take a closer look at AP as well.
