I was wondering what the benefit of the coroplast is?

Does it last a long time?
Is the cost worth it?
Does it make cleanup easier?

I have a pet store cage at moment :-( but want to build something nicer esp since I am thinking of getting my cavy (brownie) a friend. I want to choose material that will last.

Thank you
Kelly AKA Peaches.

So far my coroplast is lasting and i think it is worth its money, i do not no if it makes clean up easier, but what else would you use instead of coroplast.

Coroplast is like cardboard but made of plastic. If you want to learn more about coroplast itself, visit www.coroplast.com. It lasts a very long time, is easy to keep clean and is very cost efficient as it lasts so long.

Also, make sure to get brownie a friend and build a huge cage for them. Also, try not to spend more than $20 for a single 4x8 sheet of coroplast. I got yellow coroplast for my cage for only $10 per 4x8 sheet.

Yea I am going to get Brownie a friend. I want to wait till I get the cage build so I can introduce both together. Got a line on a few shelters here so hopefully will find a friend in next week or so. Thanks.
