I’ve seen these habitats non-stop on Tik tok and have been wanting to upgrade my dragons enclosure and finally made the purchase! Super excited to set up his new space and give him more room to thrive!

Awesome cage. It was so easy to set up! I know my beardies will enjoy this cage! I previously bought from another brand and the cages were the same size but are falling apart already! Zen enclosures have a warranty which makes me feel confident to purchase more. I bought 2 of these cages and a 2x2x2 for my snake. ❤️

So easy to assemble, and has been amazing for keeping temps and humidity. Living every thing about it.
Only issue was during setup; one of the screws didn’t want to go in. I noticed the hole didn’t seem to be cleared at the top. After scraping the plastic off the top of that, I was able to get the screw in
Shailen P.
The enclosure set up easily following the online video instructions. Or new Ackie monitor loves his new home.

Awesome enclosure. Easy to setup, durable, and great for my reptiles.

Cage is nice my bearded dragon loves the extra space!

I bought two 4x2x2 and the transition piece in the middle so I could put both enclosures together for a 8x2x2. It was super easy to put together, less than 30 minutes. My retic loves it, I had one issue but a talk to customer service fixed it right away, they told me how to fix it. Excellent customer service, excellent product.

Overall great product and service.

I am so thrilled to be a new user of the Zen Habitats. I initially purchased a 40 gallon tank when I purchased the Ball Python in December 2022. I found that the glass tank was not holding enough humidity for my scaly friend. I spent countless hours over the past few months talking to people at the local pet store about reptile enclosures. They told me that I needed to build an enclosure out of plexiglass. I went to the local hardware store and found that the tank I wanted to build was going to cost a lot more than budget for. I aslo don't ability of knowleged in builing a excape proof reptile enclosures as well. One day I was at the Country Max store, purchasing frozen meal. I spoke to another customer who mentioned the Zen Habbits before making any decision. I went to the Zen Habbit website that night and ton of stress was lifted off my shoulders.
I also knew that my reptile friend will need larger enclosure and would possible need need to ability to expand. I know there are so many manufacturers. The customer service, online chat that was provide and chating to expert made this stress free decision,
The main reason that attracts me to their products is
- The enclosure is absolutely beautiful, and holds humidity.
High-quality pvc materials and metal mesh cover
- Five-year warranty and great price.
- Ease of assembly of the enclosure with the easy-to-follow YouTube assembly guides: https://www.youtube.com/@zenhabitats
- Outstanding customer service Staff took the time to help me assemble and answer my questions.
Definitely worth it Zen Habitats met and beat my expectations. Thank you for builing fabulous product!

I recently adopted a quite big rescue beardie and wanted to be sure that she had plenty of room to get around and properly exercise. I saw a lot of positive reviews for Zen Habitats 4X2X2 folding tank and was really excited by the fact that it folds flat! I love the potential for portability given that I live in a rental apartment. The tank was pretty easy to assemble ( I managed on my own with a bit of wrangling) and looks beautiful in my apartment!
My beardie and I are both very happy with this enclosure!
The only critique that I have is that the acrylic doors are very soft and scratch incredibly easily, but I don't mind much. If that really bothers you, you may want to get glass panels for the doors instead!
Frank T.
The actual enclosure can be built rather quickly, but the entire setup process takes a while. The adhesive paper on doors (other items as well) takes time to remove. Also, I purchased 3 of the enclosures, and the glue in all 3 was dry. With all that being said, I enjoy the enclosures. I have a new snake on the way, so I went ahead and purchased another one.
Naomi G.
I will probably never buy any enclosures from anywhere else but Zen. From answering questions when I was researching enclosures to quickly responding and replacing the top when the top of the enclosure was broken when it arrived. I have never experienced such great customer service. I love the enclosure and so does our new skink.
Victoria B.
So classy and sleek. Love love it. Definitely the main attraction.
Candy T.
I could not wait until the weekend to set up my new enclosure, so I just did it now. Frick and Frack are officially separated. I will be moving Frack next to this one in the upcoming weeks and I can't wait until my ball pythons' black enclosures arrive so I can stack two and two together. I love these enclosures and I am sure I will love the black ones.
Joshua P.
Super easy setup. One piece arrived broken due to FedEx. Zen support is extremely responsive and helpful all the way through.
Carrie P.
Amazing- easy to setup and perfect for our Beardie :) Customer service was awesome too-- helped me to figure out the best product for our reptile and helped when it came to setup as I had a question- super fast response and everything was setup quickly! Thank you- it was worth the $ :)
Katelyn V.
I love the enclosure (4x2x2 Meridian) for my bearded dragon. He is a class pet in my classroom. The students love the setup. I've had the enclosure for about a month now. The only problem I've had is the acrylic doors scratch easily. Every time I cleaned the doors with a microfiber towel they scratch more. I thought I could solve this by purchasing the glass doors. They were shipped 3 times, all 3 times they were shattered! I finally gave up and am trying to find a place that will sell and cut tempered glass. The packaging on the shipment of the glass doors is a joke, protected around the edges but not in the middle.
Gregory S.
Shipping was quick.
Setup was easy. (Didn't watch the YouTube video, probably should have)
I'm a little confused about the extra peice of plexiglass it came with, but I'm assuming it was for the top
Our bearded dragon is much happier in this new cage. It retains heat well and is super easy to clean (I got the mat for the bottom). The doors slide well and are easy to get out if needed.
Alexis P.
I absolutely love this enclosure! Prosciutto (my beardie) has so much room to run around and explore. She is the happiest i’ve ever seen her. Can’t wait until she’s bigger and we can give her more things to play with. 10/10 would recommend
Philip N.
Set up is pretty easy. I have it for my baby cherry head tortoise. Love the look of it. I wish the top came with a better cover to hold in humidity. Other than that it’s pretty awesome.
Jason C.
Incredibly simple to set up and still feel like you "built" it. My pet is loving the space and quality of the enclosure
Liana C.
I love the cage. It’s so spacious and my Brazilian rainbow boa loves it.

Where to begin….I bought the original 4x2x2 wooden enclosure a while back and to my surprise it was incredibly difficult to assemble and multiple pieces broke during the assembly process.
So, I figured I would return that and pay the extra to get the one that “Assembles in Minutes” and does not have the cheap plastic connector pieces.
Turns out, it does not assemble in minutes and is made from the same cheap materials that the original wooden enclosure was made of. Not to mention that it came damaged. Every corner of the two door pieces look like the photo attached, but Zen only let me attach one image.
Going into Zen, I had high hopes because they seemed to be a reputable brand. However, upon actually getting my hands on the materials, I really can’t recommend anyone to spend this amount of money on any of their enclosures. They are too cheaply made to be selling for these prices.
At the end of the day, the enclosure works…fine. It assembled easier than the original wood 4x2x2, but feels super flimsy. I may consider a return, but dealing with the enclosure sounds a lot easier than having to go through the whole return/exchange process again.
Lilyanna D.
Customer service was great. The original pvc enclosure was on backorder and they happily changed it to a meridian style so i could receive my enclosure sooner. I bought this with the metal stand and it is a bit wobbly but thats really the only issue I have with it otherwise its a great enclosure that looks really nice too. Putting it together was simple enough just a bit time consuming but the meridian style definitely makes it easier. I cant imagine how long it would've taken me to do if it was the original style. My new blue tongue skink has plenty of room to wander and dig with how much floor space there is.
Ian M.
I love this enclosure it was for my bearded dragon and she looks like she loves it as well. I would definitely buy from here again I love this company. Great to with.
Amber L.
I could not be happier with this purchase!!! My babies have so much room, retains heat amazing and clean up (minus the shed I haven’t been able to get to yet in photo) is amazingly easy!!! Highly recommend!! The storage below…add the spacer in between for bottom lighting and total timer access..plus all the space they now have to move!!!
camryn p.
love this tank for my juvenile ball python! she explores so much now and the humidity is able to rise easily!
David F.
Have a 1 year old tegu and he is loving his new space. Easy assembly. Used my caulk gun to install the partial so it would hold. I didn’t trust the 2 way tape.
Danielle K.
This is a beautiful and cleverly made enclosure! It was easy to put together, and is very sturdy- our baby bearded dragon moved in two days ago, and he seems to already love his huge new digs!
Megan S.
LOVE this enclosure and so does my boa, Bob Ross!
It was fairly simple to build and is very sturdy! High quality, light, durable, and shipped flat straight to my house. I love the fact that it’s easy to take apart if I ever move too!
The ONLY slight issue was that the piece didn’t exactly fit the hole for the back- but all I did to fix this was sand the edges on the piece a little and it worked just fine! Honestly this is also a really great price for the design, materials, shipping, and everything! I’ve build a pvc enclosure the same size for $200 previously and it’s way heavier, can’t be taken apart, and was WAY harder to assemble- also doesn’t have the same great ventilation as zen. Zen habitats all the way!
Caitlyn M.
The Meridian is definitely worth the extra expense! It can be a little tricky to get all the parts aligned right, but it's still doable and much easier to set up than other options. Mine houses my Uromastyx and it is amazing at keeping the temps/humidity at the right levels. Zen Habitats is the best between the cost, quality and delivery time frame.
De'Andrea P.
Love my new 4X2X2 Meridian enclosures. They were very easy to set up and use. My lizards seem to enjoy them too. Thank you for creating these beautiful reptile habitats for our pets.
Jade M.
I purchased the 4x2x2 Meridian for my Ball Python, Hades. He is in love with his new space and so am I. The setup was fairly easy and he settled right in. He’s been in his Zen for almost 2 months and seems happier than he’s ever been. Thank you Zen! ❤️
Jim Y.
After searching for and reviewing many reptile enclosures my wife and I found Zen Habitats' 4'x2'x2' Meridian PVC Panel Reptile Enclosure. They are perfect! I like that they just unfold and two side panels are attached to complete the majority of the assembly process. Even better, they can be broken down the same way for shipping when relocating. They are robust and well made. Definitely not the usual glass fish tank type enclosures that are sold at pet supply stores. Meridian Enclosures are absolutely the best!
Joseph V.
If you’re about to drop 500$ on a enclosure, make sure to pick a reputable brand not this brand. Assembly in minutes? More like hours because of poor shipping conditions. Item came in so dented in most steel areas, Zen did offer to send replacement parts, but after waiting a full month for this enclosure I don’t want to wait any longer to get my BTS into his new home. I learned to deal with my purchase & that I should have went with a better brand. If you want your money back have fun returning this giant enclosure to FedEx, this thing won’t ever fit in my vehicle. Also enclosure will come dirty, you’ll have to wipe it down throughly once setup. Hope this review can help someone out there to not make this mistake. Enclosure is also very cheap and flimsy/ not sturdy
Juan C.
It’s a nice tanks just needs better materials everything is pretty cheap for a $500 tank.looks nice though pretty easy set up took me 3 minutes to set it up.
Jim Y.
A well made and designed enclosure. It is very roomy for a Bearded Dragon or a Uromastyx. Also, I like the idea that the Meridian enclosures can be broken down and packaged for shipping when relocating. No more glass tank type enclosures to deal with!

I originally had a 36"x18"x18" enclosure for my blue tongue skink. As she grew, it became apparent that she needed more space (she is longer than 18", so she could no longer fully stretch out along the short side). I decided to go with this enclosure, since it was advertised as being easy to put together and was pretty reasonable price-wise. It was a little more difficult for me to put together than I thought it would be -- took me closer to 2 hours instead of just a few minutes like it says. However, keep in mind that I am not "handy" at all and I didn't have any help, and I had a severely stiff/painful neck so it made the whole process difficult. Once I got it set up though, I have been pretty happy with it so far. It really doesn't take up that much more space in the room than the smaller cage did, but it is easy to tell that the footprint is much bigger. My skink can fully stretch out no matter what direction she's facing, and I've been able to add more decor in the enclosure. So far, I haven't really experienced the issue that some other people complain about with getting substrate stuck in the tracks. I do use the substrate shield, but whenever some substrate falls into the tracks, I just use my vacuum with an attachment, and it has no problem sucking out the substrate. I did add the door wraps and I attempted to use the door lock once, but with the door wraps on I had trouble getting the lock off. When I finally did get the door lock off, it was bent and probably not usable anymore. I haven't seen a need for it though. I don't think my skink is strong enough to move the doors.

We love it! Great product.. easy to put together and very durable

Love love love this tank and so does my bearded dragon awesome purchase, would highly recommend!
Deborah R.
My girl loves it! Couldn’t attach the photo for some reason. However, Easy to assemble, I did most of the job by myself. She’s-a happy beardie with her new spacious enclosure. Well constructed and sturdy, as well aa easy to clean and, lightweight
Shelby S.
Super easy to build and very high quality. Will be ordering stacking accessories next!

Our pretty ball python Kurenai loves her home. She loves to climb her back wall we made and the enclosure was so easy to put together my son and husband had it done within about 45 minutes, (having a 2 year olds help added some of that time) haha we will definitely be adding more of these to our home down the road
Anais N.
Badly assembled, dents, debris from plastic. At arrival the parts came badly assembled, which forced me to take it apart and reconstruct it. Some parts were too jammed in that I had to slam it on the floor and put my entire body weight on it. After re-assembly it was ok, the enclosure sure is sturdy and very pretty. I'm also extremely concerned by the amount of plastic shavings that came off the corners when assembling the enclosure, as they were too tight for the aluminum tubes.
Do not recommend if the 'guaranteed' easy assembly is not actually easy and forces you to start all over because manufacturing was poor.
NANCY H.
I love the Zen 4x2x2 meridian. shipping was super fast. 2 pieces arrived damaged and replacements were shipped out the same day. customer service was excellent. The enclosure was very easy to set up and I have attached a picture of my ball python Inanna enjoying her new home..

Assembly was very easy and it is everything I hoped for.

High quality enclosure. It's big, but feels like home for our bearded dragon. The customer service was incredible. The product was damaged in shipping and the customer service team was both easy to get a hold of and fixed it hassle free. I'd gladly order from here again.
Holly S.
We purchased 2 meridians and I wish we had gone with the regular. The beginning of our trouble was shipping damage. Both enclosures arrived with bent frames and damaged tops. Customer service was amazig and immediately sent out replacement parts. We assembled the one for our box turtle first and it still wasnt quite 100% perfect but I really couldnt wait anymore. The bottom back joint has a gap where the sides fold. We used a bio basin but I still have a worry in the back of my head about clean up crew escaping into my house. This is where I wish we had gotten the originals. Overall it does look nice but when you look too close then you can see where parts of the frame are scuffed up and marked because of how it was packaged for shipping. In all honesty we paid extra for something that ended up requiring more assembly rather than less. I have no idea how these will hold up if we should have to move them. Dont fall for the Easy Assembly Gimmick! Im about to silicone the crap out of the next one and try to forget about what I paid.
Emma M.
It’s great! Super easy to assemble and very sturdy. I’m a visual learner so I really appreciate the video assembly guide. It accommodates my lighting/decor setup really well and doesn’t produce as much glare as the glass terrarium I was using. I had questions about the product during the process of ordering and setup and the customer service response was really quick and helpful.
Eric M.
Great enclosure. Quick assembly and our beardie loves his new home. Only wish would be for future models to have a hard connection between base and enclosure. The included adhesive tape is working well though. Excellent product.
Zeth A.
I got to say I just recieved this cage yesterday and the clips on the back that you push in keeps pulling themselves out and the back pushes out I'm not very happy about that for a $500 dollar purchase not sure if I got a defective one or not
Gary H.
Haven't completed the enclosure yet but so far I LOVE the Meridian enclosure. We have a conventional 4x2x2 for our Beardie that we love but the Meridian is by far the easiest to assemble. We are creating a custom background for our albino Ball Python "Penny". First stage completed. I will post updates as we go.
Aaliyah K.
I love this enclosure! I purchased it for my ball python. So easy to assemble/disassemble. It did come with the screen slightly damaged, but customer service was super quick to ship me a replacement top and the assembly/disassembly to replace the top was a breeze. I like it so much I went and pre-ordered more enclosures for the rest of my animals.
Kim S.
Zurg loves her new cage. It was very easy to put together. It took about 30 minutes to put the cage and cabinet together (with the help of a 8 and 6 year old). The only advise would be to make sure to line up the locks on the back. Very happy with everything purchased from Zen Habitats.
Tricia K.
This setup was so easy to put together! My green tree python settled right in and is loving all the extra space! It is also great with humidity!
Luis L.
Great enclosure! Very easy to put together and is pretty light for his big it is. Also feels durable and sturdy.
Katie C.
I just got this and put my bearded dragon in it ! ( it’s so big I still need to add more decorations) but he is loving all the room and I couldn’t have been more happy with the quick and easy set up! It’s definitely a 10/10 I can’t wait to get another for my ball python! ❤️
Dax R.
This is our 3rd enclosure from Zen habitats. Absolutely love them all and our critters do too. About to set up a 4th bioactive for my rainbow boa!

Great tank for a bearded dragon plenty of room for Louisa to climb and get exercise. Very easy to put together and well made.
