How's this set up for a Uro?

I know its a bit pricey, but I'm wondering how this type of cage would be for a Uro? I'm especially concerned as to if the front doors would be okay (as opposed to a top lid) and if the 16x8 ventilation area is enough and whether humidity would get too high in this (the site does say that more than one of these vents is provided in larger cages - but I don't know what they consider the 'larger cages'?

Any opinions would be appreciated.

Thanks.

that cage is perfect,real nice too!

the only problem i could see would be heating it,but then again if its in a warm room heating would be no problem at all.

Is the material (melamine) that it's made of that's not good for heating? Here's the home page with some more info on the cages:

Here's their options page:

I'm also looking at these cages:

With both of them I'm concerned with ventilation - I don't know how much there should be for a Uro.
