I personally don't own any of their cages, but eventually want to get some. Someone was selling one of those cages on ebay & I sent them an email asking the same questions you did. He said that they were great for holding humidiy and heat in. He said easy to clean and he's had every type of setting in the cage. Desert, jungle, etc. I like their design. they incorporated a spot for everything without losing inner space and its stackable to boot. If you can afford it, go for it.
