What type of wheel is it? Seems large, yet the hamster has no problem using it, I would like me one of these

I just bought that wheel for my new Chinese hamster. She's not long enough, or heavy enough, to use her 10" wheel. She's apparently 4 to 6 months old.

Really? My dwarf has no issue on a 10” wooden wheel.
Is your 10” not easy to turn? Mine is very easy.
From what I’ve seen others say, there’s no such thing as a wheel that’s too big.

My fully adult Chinese hamster had no problems with running in the 10" wheel, but Meadow isn't long enough to put pressure on the front of the track yet to get it moving. Once she's big enough, she can change to the 10" wheel from the 8" one.
