“Totally surprised at the SIZE of the actual feeder - it is huge and I won't have to make all those freezing trips in the snow. Very sturdy and well made. Not setting it up just yet since there is plenty of natural food still available in terms of seed pods, berries and other tasty morsels.
The real test will come when the squirrels discover it. I have tried every baffle and every sized pole out there to discourage them but they ALWAYS find a way! I have seen them leap over ten feet from a supposedly distant tree branch and land on top of my feeder....started to feel like Bill Murray in Groundhog Day and violence was truly the next step.
Will post another review once I see it in action - hopefully a video of a squirrel scratching his head and deciding to move on to the neighbor's house instead.”
“I've had this feeder for over a year and the birds absolutely adore it. I didn't even realize Florida had so many cute birds till I installed this feeder. The squirrels try to figure out how to partake, but fail every time. I needed to contact customer service and they assisted me quickly and with courtesy. My birds didn't skip a beat with the lightning fast resolution Birds Choice extended to me. I recommend this product and company most highly!”
“I have gone through quite a few bird feeders, and this is the best feeder I have ever used. It's the only one I found that keeps squirrels away. It's sturdy, easy to fill and clean, and accommodates a large volume of food. Thank you!”
“This feeder is wonderful. It was easy to set up and looks great in my yard, I love the green color.. It is also easy to fill up and the birds enjoy it. I have not noticed any squirrels.”
“I bought this feeder over 20 years ago. In the last few weeks I replaced the cylinder for the first time ($20). The sun got to it! My five year old granddaughter soon to be six has requested a bird feeder for her birthday. I knew which one I was going to buy her. The feeder, pole and baffle is all included. Now, I have read the reviews from other second time purchasers that claim the second one is not made as well as their old one. To me the new feeder looks exactly the same except the metal painted green might be a little thinner. Maybe I will update this review a year from now!!!!”
