All-Metal ConstructionThis feeder stands for durability. The wire mesh design has a zinc-plated finish to resist rust, while the sturdy metal construction will help resist squirrel damage. |
Large OverhangThe large overhang serves two great purposes. First, it helps to shield the seed from wet weather. It also provides shelter and shade for birds while they dine. |
Built-in Drain HolesWith its mesh design and built-in drainage holes, water is unable to pool in the reservoir and instead flows freely out of the feeder so seed airs out more quickly. |
Attracts Clinging and Perching Birds
The diamond-shaped mesh surface and circular seed tray create an all-over dining area to accommodate up to 15 birds at once. The mesh makes the perfect landing place for clinging birds, while perching birds appreciate the 360-degree seed tray.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
This is a very interesting design and I was surprised when it came as it is just a flat pack. When you lift on the hanger hoop it just opens up into the feeder as shown in the pictures.It is well made, finish is durable, filler hole is easy to access and large enough to fill without a problem from a cup or scoop.
We have a squirrel problem and notice that although they can reach from the hanger and try and eat they have to get seeds one at a time with great effort and cannot chew through this steel. So no guilt about not feeding the squirrels and no anger from them pigging out...they have to work hard for one seed.
All of the negative reviews about this not working are by people who did not read nor they do not know what black oil sunflower seeds are. It works great for the product it is designed for...better than any feeder at any price I have used...and I have bought feeders up to $150 with all kinds of squirrel guards, long wire isolation lines, rotating baffles in the lines holding the feeder, etc.
What makes this work is that squirrels can get a very small amount of feed for a lot of work and will decide, as our acrobatic friends have, to just eat what they find on the ground.
If you want to feed a large variety of birds then I think this will still work fine just be prepared that the smaller feed will meter to the ground through the holes in the bottom plate with very limited feed remaining in the tray. Birds get their meal on the ground or through the wire mesh screen...not the tray.
I've decided to use this feeder in the winter simply because it is so "pretty" and will look cheerful...especially against a snowy winter background. I will use an inexpensive weather "dome" to help keep the seed (I will use this feeder for a mix of C&S pellets and seed) from getting wet. btw - C&S pellets are so much easier to provide the suet that wintering birds need. Woodlink makes a very nice metal weather protector. Aspect's clear plastic domes are great and the price is reasonable. Make sure to take the "hanging accessories" out of the box, if you order any of the weather (aka squirrel baffles ...does the same thing) protectors. Too often "helpful" hands around my house have pitched them (never "moi" - lol) with the box. That's why I keep a supply of different size hangers, hooks and chains in my backporch cabinet.
Of course, peanuts and other nuts will not fit through the mesh. That is clearly evident in the photos. As a basic black oil sunflower and/or safflower feeder, it's fine. You can even use those awful blends (with so much filler....and waste) you find in your local grocery store. The little birds love this feeder. Even the darn doves figured out how to land sideways on the edge. Sorry, purists. I cannot tolerate doves around my feeders. They aren't bullies like the starlings or grackles but because of their size (and noisy arrival) they scare away the smaller birds.
I have several weight sensitive feeders (intended for squirrels).These are wonderful at keeping the heavier/bigger birds from taking over. The doves don't mind ground feeding at all...and get their fill searching the ground below the feeders....just as most birds will...even cardinals. In the winter, I use "seed hoops" (Innovations and Songbird Essentials both have good products...I call them "seed savers") to make it easier for the birds to find all of the seed (doesn't get so readily buried in the snow).
I feed the squirrels, too, but they have their own feeding station. The chipmunks eat whenever, wherever and whatever (lol) they wish. They will chew through most any hard plastic (even Tupperware and Rubbermaid but polycarbonate is tougher for them) to get to seed...so save yourself some trouble...spray the hot pepper spray on the outside of those containers if left outside during the winter (which you should do as birdseed is the most normal route for pantry pests to get into your home....that and pet food).I use hot pepper flakes and watered down "hot sauce" to keep mammals out of our bird seed but save some seed just for our funny backyard clowns.
btw - birds don't have taste buds as we mammals do. And squirrels and chipmunks are after all mammals. That's why hot pepper flakes and sprays are great for keeping squirrels out of your feeders. You really don't need to spend mucho bucks for those fancy feeders to keep the smartest critters in the neighborhod out of your bird seed. They WILL find a way no matter what you spend. However, it is a hoot watching their antics. The best and most expensive "squirrel proof" feeders are a challenge to these acrobatic Einsteins.It may take a while...but they figure out a way to get to that seed. Just invest in some inexpensive red hot pepper flakes, sprays etc. So much cheaper.
I have a special area just for the blue jays, too. They love unshelled, unsalted roasted peanuts.
I finally found a way to rig a hanging platform feeder with a plastic dome low enough to keep out doves etc but allows the cardinals access. I even made use of a heavier clear plastic (saved from some packaging....it's as heavy as that used on many packaged products.....you know.... nearly impossible to remove without a chain saw) around one corner to keep access (those darn doves again)
One more hint....for you gardeners. Alvin and family (our resident chipmunks) love our spring bulbs.Yummy...must make a nice change from birdseed and nuts. However, they hate hot pepper. When I plant new bulbs, I spray them with the diluted hot pepper sauce (buy the liquid intended for this right here on Amazon) and then sprinkle some hot pepper flakes (from the local supermarket) in with your new bulbs. Alvin and his family doesn't bother with my bulbs anymore.
I hope some of my ramblings have helped someone. People say I talked too much. Heck, I write too much, too.Sooooooo!
Now I know it was a bear. When I looked out the window this morning, the feeder was gone. After searching a few minutes, I found this new red one. Easy to see being red. It was totally empty and collapsed but aside from one side of the mesh being a little dented, it was fine.
I hung it back up and refilled it and there are already cardinals on it.
I’ll be bringing it in at night from now on. I saw the bear up on the road the other morning so I should have known better.
Can’t say enough good things about this feeder. All of my birds are back and I just love how strong it is.
It is slightly harder to fill than my old ones but I’m learning how.
Best purchase in a long time.
Edited to add that the squirrels are obsessed with it. The feeding tray accommodates their long bodies perfectly. There is one that just stays on it all day long. I ordered the same feeder but without the tray before I realized that I could take this one apart and remove the tray. I may keep both. I’ll update when I hang up the new one.
