Are the hamster homes with the tubes going up to the next level to difficult for dwarf hamsters?

I have had hamsters before,but never a dwarf hamster. I hear that the tubes are to difficult and even dangerous for dwarf hamsters. Can anyone who has had dwarf hamsters tell me if they experienced any difficulties with these tubes?

    Our campbell’s dwarf hamster loved the tubes after he got used to the idea. We’ve also had several mice who happily climbed & ran through the tubes.

    No, no difficulties for them as they are good at climbing.

    dwarfs are fine with tubing just make sure that if there are steep sections in the tube that they will be able to reach the next part and also that they can turn around in the tube. This is because they may not be able to climb the next part or they may not feel like climbing, if they cant turn around then they will get stuck and you don’t want this to happen as it can stress them out,

    other then this its fine
    hope that this helps

    i think they should be fine because my mice are about the same size as dwarf hamsters, and they can make it up the tube in their cage with no problem.
