Enclosures are among the most important items to purchase. Based on scientific research I prepared a couple of recommendations. I strongly recommend purchasing at least a 120x60cm for a Syrian hamster as they're less stressed that way and much larger than dwarfs so you would need to fit larger hideouts, sand baths and substrate boxes.

It's not hard to assemble an enclosure yourself, you don't have to be an expert. Hamsters should not be housed in barred enclosures, unless it's temporary. Most hamsters chew bars of the cage and climb, which can result in physical injuries. Such behaviours also indicate stress and boredom, which should also be addressed.
