Very nice sturdy feeder. I hate WalMarts similar feeder, it is cheaply constructed. I will purchase more of these. The birds took to this feeder immediately. They love it. And the price is right!

It’s sturdy, it’s inexpensive, and the smaller birds can poke their beaks right to the bottom of the feeder to get all of the seeds. (The last vertical feeder we had always had leftovers at the bottom that the birds couldn’t reach.) And the price is decent. A nice addition to the back yard.

I don’t recommend this feeder if you have squirrels nearby. In three week’s time, squirrels gnawed the plastic perches off, chewed the plastic ports until feed poured out, and destroyed the plastic bottom cap, completely emptying the feeder’s contents onto the ground. This is an inexpensive feeder that is not unattractive, but squirrel-proof it definitely is not.

I have this feeder. Why pay this much when you can buy it at Wal-Mart for $4.98 ? We end up with half the seed on the ground underneath it. Birds seem to like it though.

I have this feeder placed right outside my window of my ground floor apartment. I originally got it for the cats’ entertainment, and am glad I did.
I originally had a feeder bell hanging from the second floor apartment’s balcony, but decided it wasn’t enough.
I purchased this feeder for the sparrows and used the cheapest bird feed available. After I switched to sunflower seeds only I am now getting sparrows, finches and starlings. The down side being that the perches were not designed for starlings so they have to reach around to one of the other holes to get their food.
Anymore, I can get 5 or so on it at once with two or three hanging out on the chain it hangs from waiting in line.
I really love this little feeder and have had it since December ’08. Never once had a problem with squirrels, but it may be because of the way I have it set up.
