I have never used any of these, but they are not much cheaper the a Ferret Nation cages. Those are in my opinion the best. I had a different kind (My First Pet...or something like that) when I got Chestnut and it was a horrible design. I hunted down a FN 142 on craigslist for a 100 bucks and it was the best thing. It took me 2 months to find one, so if it's not urgent I'd say get one of those. These cages you are looking at look very narrow to me. That was my biggest issue with the first cage I had. For ferrets it's more comfortable to have something wide. At least in my experience.

I will keep looking for a FN but after learning that the pieces in the 182 just slide together I definitely don't want one and it seems like the 142s are getting pretty rare. The cage reccomended to me at a supposedly quality pet store was 2x2x2 and he said that was big enough for two ferrets...lol good joke. I'd love to have something that's 2 foot wide, 3 foot long and 3 to four feet high, metal, with pieces that screw or snap in place for stability. So glad I started looking into supplies early, just picking a cage has me running in circles! ;D

For permanent residency I think you will be happier with the Ferret Nation.
However, looking at those Kritter Koncepts cages, they look like they would be pretty cool for travel cages!

IMO, that first one looks easiest for cleaning. But it's still going to be difficult if you can't get right in there. The 182 would still be fine as long as you don't pull on the top half.

Would zip ties be safe for making the levels more secure or would they be a chewing/choking hazard?

Zip ties should be fine.
