Great cages. The Pro-Line polyethylene version is incredibly strong. Polyethylene doesn't insulate quite as much as PVC. It is a very inert plastic. Not much can harm it other than high temps. Cleans very well, it is what many plastic cutting boards are made of. Similar material plastic milk jugs are made from.
Their ABS cage line (Pro-Style I think they call it) is a lighter-weight cage. ABS is a bit less costly too. I have a number of small ABS cages, two of which is shown in the pic. Nice material, insulates very well. Quite tough, though not as strong as polyethylene, but not as heavy.
All great cages, all functional, any and all will work fine. Price is a steal really for Boaphile, Constrictors Northwest, AP. The majority of us couldn't make a cage of that quality for the price. The material alone and shipping for it would be prohibitive. These mfgrs have the benefit of quantity and precision tooling to make an affordable quality product.
