I prefer flat top... not necessarily play top, but flat top... since it IS easier to hang toys, and put something on top of the cage for the birds to amuse themselves with if on top...

However, that didn't stop me from buying a dome top macaw cage for Charlie! It is a pain in the butt cause he IS a *small* bird (he's the largest here!), therefore his toys are also small. ATM, I have the grate from his previous cage hanging inside at the top of the dome top to form as a platform. He goes up there and plays with his toys, or rather, beats them up! It works but still, I prefer flat top.

If he was larger, say macaw sized, then I can definitely see the reasons for having dome-top, as a macaw would have bigger/longer toys.
