Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

First, shipped well packed and quick. Second, it looks great, better than the photo on AZ. Third, it has some features I didn't find on more expensive feeders, i.e. the coated cable that holds it goes through the top and then is anchored to the metal base. I had one this feeder replaced where the cable was just to a bar stuck through the sides of the plastic of the feeder. The plastic just gave out, the feeder fell and now is in the junk. Another nice feature is the little button on the beautifully polished copper top which you push and hold to lift off the top and once filled, slide the top back down securely on the plastic portion to lock it. Well made all the way. Also like that the seed passes through several ports into the perch mounted feeder tray rather than just spilling into it. I think this will really cut down the spillage. Very pleased. Oh, btw. Somebody mentioned in another feeder review that you could douse the seed with pepper and oil to deter squirrels. That's too much bother. Just get the cheapest economy size container of cayenne pepper you can find and just liberally sprinkle it over your seed when you get it. Mix it in (maybe sneeze a couple of times) and with this stuff mixed through your seed, no more squirrels. I've seen a squirrel hit one of my feeders, must have got a snoot full of pepper and down he went, rubbing his head on the grass trying to relieve his 'burn'. It doesn't hurt the squirrel but he's finished with your feeder (he'll tell his friends) and it's actually good for the birds who don't seem to mind the pepper at all. As long as your feeders are kept well laced with cayenne, you don't need fancy squirrel baffles.
