What is the difference in materials? Is one better than the other at holding up to cleaning? What are the advantage and disadvantage of each?
Thanks,

I've seen both at a reptile show. I could not find any appreciable difference. Quality was A-plus on both.
What you need to be mindful of is the width of the racks. Some of the FB and ARS racks are 2 or 3 boxes wide. My snake room is so small that I could not fit the FB or ARS model I was originally looking at in that room with the other cages I have. Had to go with another mfgr. So measure first.

I think that the main difference between ARS and FB is the location. I live on the West Coast, so it made more sense for me to go with Freedom Breeder, as they deliver to a local show. Another difference is the ventilation. FB ventilation is much more versatile. It seems to me that the FB tubs are also somewhat easier to get replacements for.
