Unless you have got small children, dogs or cats, a C&C cage gives you the most space and flexibility as you can always build upwards or around a corner. You can have cages on the floor or on a table. I use a cheap Ikea linnmon 75x150 cm table for my upper story C&C cages. Access and storage can be easier on an elevated cage, but it is mainly personal preference.
Pets@home cages are generally overpriced. You may find that zooplus have better deals for traditional cages, especially at the moment. The ferplast is the better quality, but a skyline maxi is fine as a spare/temporary cage.

Please consider rehoming from one of our recommended rescues. That way, you can neatly avoid all the usual pitfalls that await the unwary, as you will only rehome guinea pigs that are guaranteed healthy, properly sexed and not pregnant, and carefully character matched - and you have the support of the rescue during the settling in period and the whole life of their piggies. They will also take care that they only rehome suitable guinea pigs into a new owner/family home.
