Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this on a whim, and I assumed that the picture on the box, showing clusters of goldfinches, was an exaggeration. It isn't. It's an understatement. Right now there are more than a dozen goldfinches scrambling around on my feeder. At times there are probably two dozen. If you have finches in the area, they will find the feeder. But I am a victim of my own success. The socks that come with this feeder spill out enormous quantities of seed. Not only is it expensive, it also makes a real mess on our deck, which I have to clean up constantly. As a result, I'm going to get a tube finch feeder and try it instead. I will miss seeing the crowds of finches clustering literally side by side, but the mess is just too much.
I wanted a feeder right outside my kitchen window. If you can put this feeder somewhere where you don't care about large amounts of spilled seed, and you can afford the seed, then you will love this feeder.
One minor quibble, you will see that a plastic dome attaches to a green ring, and the green ring attaches to the main body of the feeder. Both of these parts come loose far too easily when you fill the feeder, which can mean you spill huge amounts of seed. The trick, I have found, is to hang the feeder from a very low hook when filling it, so that the top of the feeder is about chest level. Then you can fill it easily, without the thing coming apart, and then put it back on its normal hook. I got a big S-shaped thing, from which you can hang other things. At filling time, I take the feeder down, put up the S-hook, then hang the feeder from the S-hook.
