i have seen instances of them lifting the door(not realizing their own strength) then dropping it on their neck! common with parakeets.

I have the same brand of cage, except mine is 60" x 32" x 18". Yes, it's nearly as big as my sofa. I love it, but the first thing I did with it was liberally apply zap-straps to all the dangerous parts. Get metal ones if you can, because you will need to make sure they don't get nibbled off. I like the cage a lot, and it would easily fit 3 Pyrrhuras at least! It had two, now just Charlie, but she uses the whole thing and loves having all the space to herself. I just wanted to throw my two cents in to agree that it needs some modifications to be safe!
