“Like the first one because of large capacity, weatherproof, no rain or snow gets in to mush up and mold seed. Most importantly, I can adjust baffle to keep undesirable larger birds like grackles out. Even deer have a hard time getting to seed. Easy to maintain and clean. That is why I bought a second unit!”
“This feeder has long been a go-to for being squirrel resistant at a reasonable price, though I have my fingers crossed that tariffs and other pricing factors don't push the price any higher. As for design, we do occasionally get a person with smaller hands or arthritis, who has a challenge getting a good grip on the lid to take it off. We had a customer retrofit theirs with a small round cabinet knob screwed into the middle of the lid (think old fashioned flour/sugar canister) and it worked perfectly for them without affecting the squirrel resistance. We have passed that suggestion on to other people for whom the lid might have been an issue.”
