Most of my friends have this cage. I think you might have to work with it. But I don't for sure. All I know if you can lock the wheels not take them off.

You'd probably have to cut the legs off. I really don't remember though, as it's been a while since we put it together.

No, this version is welded together. I can't recommend it enough, though. If you do have the floor space it is the best cage because it is so easy to clean, pretty easy to put together (I am not handy and I needed very little help from the hubs) and provides plenty of space and room to put in enrichment stuff. Alright, enough raving, I promise I don't work for the company or get anything for my reviews :) .. I am just a raving fan because of the other cages we have had. The wheels do lock, by the way, I just don't know if it would be safe on a counter (and it would be pretty high up). HIH!

No it can not be remove, the wheels can come off and you can put ply wood on the bottom so it won't scratch your counter.

I'm not sure if the model I have (bought it used) might be different, but the entire base can come off the same way the sides pop together. I took the whole base off of mine and just set it on the floor. It sets on the little metal pegs that normally pop into the cart base legs, so I would recommend putting some felt under it so it doesn't scratch your floor. Short answer: Yes it can (unless there is something different about the newer model).

You can remove the sliding tray under the playtop to reveal the cage bars underneath. You don't have to attach the playtop at all if it won't be used.

Yes, you can and I wish I had. However, there is not a way to remove it easily after assembly. It is not that it is ugly. Just not necessary. So just skip that step during assembly and you should be fine.

Yes, you can just remove them. However, if you are going to use it without the baskets, I'd recommend not putting the baskets on it at all as the baskets scratch the wood after a bit of sliding in and out.

It's completely removable. I've actually taken everything out and use the cage by itself. It is huge.

You attach the wheels, so they can be removed / not attached. I would recommend it, the legs did not have a nice finish on the bottom.The wheels can be locked in place too, there is a turn-key on each wheel so you can lock the individually. Don't really need to, it is very heavy and does not roll by itswlf

Yes. Pinch the prongs at the end of the wheel base. The wheel can be slid off and replaced. I recommend buying 2 or even 3 wheels so they can be run through the dishwasher every other day or so. Otherwise it becomes the gross wheel of hamster pee. As another reviewer stated--it can be placed (& replaced) on the side of the cage ONLY. It is not meant to, nor will it,fit inside the cage

You can remove the casters (you have to put them on during assembly) but the top is smooth - there is no notch or way to secure the top of the bottom stack with the bottom of the top.

Thank you for your inquiry. Yes you can assemble it without the wheels. The caster are inserted into the bottom of the base. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to let us know.

You have to assemble the whole thing, so you could skip putting on the wheels. Might make it a little short though, since the wheels bring it up to an average counter height.

The top on this cage can be removed. The gray shelf can also be moved around.

Yes, you can remove the tray and liner but make sure that the metal grate in the cage bottom is secure. And, the height is ~11 inches off the ground.

No, it is not removable. We also have never had any problems with our bunnies on a mesh bottom. We do however also provide solid areas for her to stand in. This cage has been great!

I just checked. The are clearly not designed to be removed but can be. The wheels are the normal type casters seen on office stuff like filing cabinets or bins. The wheels attached to a metal plate about 1" square which appears to slide/snap into place on the plastic case. I'm sure with a little effort you can easily remove them--I didn't try.BTW, I find the SPT to be amazingly effective--I live in a motorhome and the humidity was creating problems with our cabinets till I started using it. Also discovered how much more comfortable it is with it running.

Not easily. It's part of the structure of the top. With a hacksaw and file or sandpaper I suppose you could remove it, but that would be permanent alteration.

Yes, you can. It's just 4 screws that hold that bottom shelf in place. But, 2 things you should know:1. that bottom shelf is adjustable. I have mine in a much higher slot than the one picture.2. the bottom shelf acts as a stabilizer to the 2 long legs. If you take out the bottom shelf, the unit probably won't roll as smoothly and will not be as stable.

The cage can be removed from the base. The cage is a bit heavy so not as easy as I would like. I wipe the cage down completely daily and only break it down on a monthly basis to give it a thorough cleaning.
