POOR QUALITY "PARROT" CAGE FROM TAKEALOT

I bought a "parrot" cage from Takealot in August 2025. On arrival, I noticed that the cage was made of very thin wire.

I have 2 Sun Conures and everyone that owns parrots know that you need a sturdy cage for them. Within 2 weeks, the wiring started breaking off at the welding points of the wiring. The workmanship is of very poor quality and posed a danger to my parrots.

I advised Takealot that I want a full refund as their advertising is misleading. In one of the photos of the Takealot add, it showcases a Macaw sitting on the perch on the open top of the cage. This is clearly false advertising as anyone that has parrots, knows that a Macaw will bite right through the wiring of this "parrot" cage.

I asked for a refund as I do not want a replacement of such a poor quality cage that I paid over R2000.00 for. But now Takealot first wants to play games with regards to referring to the supplier etc etc. This cahe is as I received it..... brand new!! They are quick to take your money, but not so quick to fix their poor quality!!

BEWARE OF THE ADVERTISING OF TAKEALOT. ALL IS NOT WHAT IT SEEMS!!
