The only things I don't like about them is that middle feeding opening is hard to open and so you typically startle any fossorial tarantula back underground when you try to open it AND it can feel like you've closed it when you haven't. If you haven't had the pleasure of a C. lividum standing on the lid of a critter keeper, you truly haven't lived... lolSimilarly, as they get older they seem to warp a little bit and the entire lid can sometimes be lifted right off easily which gets to be a problem with a 6" tarantula that wants to explore. But, really, those issues are easily dealt with for a great priced enclosure that is otherwise decent. It's really nothing duct tape or masking tape can't fix. I have a couple of them and just use a few pieces of masking tape for added assurance.</blockquote>
