We have many wheels here too we have the silent spinners,Comfort wheel(superpet) and the mesh ones all the rats cages where they have wheels use them(mainly the females :giggle:
I find they are all ok to clean but like others said the silent spinner just watch not to bust it :giggle: the sturdiest one i find is the silent spinner in the cage at least wheres the comfort wheels the rat broke within time running on them its the thin type plastic.
The mesh ones are simple to clean pop in water with dish soap and bam clean
never had any tails stuck or anything of that sort they do make them different then before where the bars to hold up the wheel is up more on the side and not down on the side.
For the noise on the mesh wheels i put vasoline on the ends of the spokes that hold the wheel up
safe for the rats.
Also i did have a wodent wheel before but no one liked it because its pretty much closed in.
picture's of the wheels i use
Mesh wheel note i use use those with smaller girls) 11":
I also have a 9" for growing girls(babies)
Silent spinner i think 12":
Comfort wheel 12":
Wodent wheel:
So my favorite one would most likely be the Silent Spinner just for the sternness of it.
