Recommended Size of a Hamster Cage?

I'm getting two husky roborovski dwarf hamsters very soon but I haven't made or bought a cage yet. Please give me some sizes I should go by when buying or making a cage!

Also, do you know of any cages that are good for robo dwarves?

Thanks!

All stupid answers will be deleted, so don't bother ;)

Update:

@Zach: Thanks, I am in the UK and I've found one that is 50cm long and 33cm wide so I think that will be okay.

    Hello,

    Many cages marketed for hamsters in the US are too small. Aim for a minimum of 24 inches by 12 inches, and at least 12 inches tall. However to keep your hamster active and happy, try to get the biggest cage you could possibly afford and maintain. Bigger is always better!
