Bought this less than a year and a half ago. The paint began to peel off in less than a year. The squirrels have messed up the spring on the other perch. I’ll give it one star for the cute design.

A Charming House Feeder

I purchased this a month ago and love the beautiful white house hanging out my front door attracting many different birds. It is easy to fill, just pop up the roof

I purchased this a month ago and love the beautiful white house hanging out my front door attracting many different birds. It is easy to fill, just pop up the roof and fill right where it is hanging. The only negative to it is the feeding holes should have a tiny lip to hold the seed in. The seed just rolls out when the bird eats or the wind blows. So the ground is covered with seed. That is probably why the squirrels don't bother the feeder, they eat what is on the ground along with the doves. Bird seed is so expensive to have waste. Overall, I am happy with the feeder and I hope it lasts for many years.

Squirrels are still too smart

I really like the style of this cage as far as number of spots for birds and the way it looks is very cool. Two things that make this less than ideal are the fact

I really like the style of this cage as far as number of spots for birds and the way it looks is very cool. Two things that make this less than ideal are the fact that the dimensions are pretty wide so a large amount of seed gets left on the floor below the feeder holes, about 1/4 inch of seed, which can get gunked up and moldy pretty quickly. A slightly angled up to the middle bottom seems like a reasonable solution that I haven't bothered to try to jerry rig. Secondly, the squirrels have figured how to get at the feed anyway, as they just hang upside down from the roof and reach their paws in to knock seed to the ground. Using a large S hook rather than a rope might help, need to go get a couple and see. Otherwise, this is a nice feeder and looks good.
