Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

So I ordered this item, and the first one I got was defective (the adjustable arm had cut into the side, and thus the perch bar would not sit even). I contacted Perky Pet, their customer service was super nice and got me out a new one. The new one was in perfect condition. First let me say I didn't buy this feeder for it's squirrel resistance. I live in South East Texas and have been feeding birds long enough to know that squirrels will figure out any feeder. The only thing I have ever found to keep squirrels away from my seed is a pole with a squirrel baffle, and make sure it is not near anything the squirrels can jump from (i.e. fences, trees, pots, etc.). I bought this item because I thought it looked great, and I love the fact that the birds can only eat from one side of it. I have too many feeders where birds can eat all around it, and as a result you can get birds eating behind the feeder (and thus the feeder blocks your view of them). No such issues with this feeder, whatever bird is eating from it, I can see perfectly from my living room chair. This feeder is really well made and is beautiful in appearance. I prefer this version over the red one, but the red one looks very good as well. Because I have it on a pole with a squirrel baffle I can't really speak to the squirrel be gone feature. I can say that it looks great, and the birds love it. I have yet to see any large birds try to eat from it. The biggest I have had is the Northern Mockingbird, and the smallest has been the Carolina Chickadee. This is the best looking feeder I have ever had and it is quickly be coming my birds favorite. I am feeding sunflower seeds mixed with C&S suet nuggets in it. I attached a picture of the original one I received that was damaged (not the best picture), as well as a video from the new replacement I got which is permanently in my yard. If this review helped I would appreciate a thumbs up vote. Best of luck in your shopping and let me know if I can help in anyway.
