    The best

    Having bought many different types of feeder this one is by far the best one. The transparet cover keeps the food dry, the tray is of strong metal mesh allowing any rain entering the tray to drain away. The birds enter the tray from the side and thereby reduce any spillage attracting pidgeons. I thoroughly recommend this feeder

    Brilliant m/w feeder but has a flaw!

    If I'd made this review 2 days ago I'd have said it was a superb feeder but then something unexpected happened which revealed a fatal flaw with it. I started using it about 2 months ago and just when the influx of baby starlings began so numbers increased from 4 to 44+++ at times. They fought over the m/w endlessly so I was forever refilling it - not a problem. I have the feeder out the top window at the back of the house as I've nowhere in my town yard for it, so it's over the kitchen roof. Yesterday I discovered the base of the feeder on the roof (where I can't get to it) with the rest of it still hanging. Seemingly the weight of 4 starlings at a time fighting was too much for it. It wasn't out overnight or in the rain too often but the wire around the connection appears to have fatigued or something so the base just fell clean off. I've contacted the manufacturers to advise them of this problem in case it's a common one they're unaware of.

  • good mealworm feeder

    good solid meal base, hard plastic top. easy to put together. mini mealworms stay in side the tray, but the regulars sized ones where able to climb out.

  • Sound in principle

    Recommended with a reservation. You have to educate the mealworms not to climb out of the basket! I decided to line sides with plastic, not a perfect solution but it leaves more food in basket for the birds to enjoy. Kit fits together quite easily and is easy to adjust and clean.So far any rain has been kept out successfully and the little birds are learning how to gain access.

  • Nice feeder but hook too shallow and needs re-designing as the feeder came off in the first high wind.

    Feeder is quite well made but barrel fixture at top is rusting after one week. Also, hanging hook is more like a coat hanger and not up to the task. In the first high wind, the feeder came off the branch but luckily we'd foreseen this and rigged up a piece of string tied to the feeder and the branch as a back-up. Otherwise it would have come crashing down and broken the plastic lid. The feeder is a good idea but the hook needs re-designing.

  • A good nesting season garden addition.

    Very pleased with the feeder. It only took 2 days for the birds to get used to it for feeding. It is a very strong under bowl and the adjustable transparent roof can be lowered to prevent bigger birds eating from it. We now have a pair of Robins regularly using it, while keeping Blackbirds away. A good well priced purchase. Thanks.

  • Best product on the market but plastic screw is its only weakness

    Have bought this product before and find its only weakness is the plastic screw which tends to corrode and break off after a while after being exposed to the weather

  • Great for smaller birds.

    The metal base weights the feeder down so it doesn't blow about in the breeze like 100% plastic ones do. The cover can be lowered so that robins, blue tits and sparrows can get to the food whilst keeping the greedy pigeons out (sorry pegeons). All the smaller birds love mealworms! Great value for money.

  • Poorly made cheap item

    Please be warned there seems to be two versions of this product. I have ordered twice and on both occasions I have received very cheap looking items with completely different tray mountings than advertised in pictures. Probably ok if you have a few tiny birds every now and then useless if you have a variety of birds.
