This is the only feeder that attracts hummingbirds to our door. We had birds eating right at the glass slider on the front deck all summer long! The birds loved it and my family did too!

I currently have two feeders in the back yard for the hummingbirds. I love the way this one looks but the birds don't feed from it and I'm not sure why. The other one will be empty and they still don't come to this one.

I bought this feeder about a week ago after spotting a hummingbird in my backyard. It looks great in the yard and I love the detail in the hanger. (It's nothing fancy, but it is sweet.) I used the clear hummingbird formula and hung it in an area that didn't get a lot of people traffic, but was in clear view.

Then I waited...

For three days there was nothing...then finally last night while sitting outside, my husband and I saw 3 different hummingbirds sipping from the feeder!! I was so excited I immediately informed him (to his own distress) that our yard would be filled with feeders before long. :)

I think it is a great buy and the hummingbirds really seem to like it. I may consider one with a perch, but I must say that it is truly exciting watching them hover, then dart away.

Enjoy!

I never know what to get my mother-in-law for her birthday. My husband mentioned that she had a lot of hummmingbirds around her house, so I got her this feeder. She told me that all the hummingbirds now go to this feeder and not the others. She was very pleased with it, which made me very happy. She's a great mother-in-law.

I like this feeder because when you remove the base to fill it, the base splits into 2 pieces for easy cleaning. The other feeders I own have small crevices that get moldy. This is a very nice looking feeder that is the right size to allow the hummers to consume most of the necter before it goes bad. Nice hand painted flowers give an ordinary glass feeder a bit more decorative look.

The hummingbirds love this feeder. There are 4 places for them to feed and sometimes they will sit on the feeder for 15 minutes at a time, just to rest and feed. Easy to clean and fill, and other birds or animals cannot feed from it.

This thing is so nasty!
I bought it because it was pretty, but I have been very, very disappointed once I started using it. The syrup in the bottom turns to a nasty, thick goo within just a couple of days,and if the wind blows the sugar water dribbles out all over my deck.
I've found the same problem with any of the hummingbird feeders that use the tray method: where the syrup comes down from an upside-down bottle into a trough with little fake flowers over it.

Very nasty, and the birds don't like it much.

I bought this for my mom's birthday. She wanted a hummingbird feeder and I wanted to find one better than the plastic ones in the stores. She absolutely loved this one. The painting is great, and the metal flowers are charming! She hasn't put it up yet, but so far we're totally happy.

I purchased this as a gift as I own the OPUS Looking Glass feeder which my hummers love and this one is similar, but smaller capacity. It appears to be well designed and properly fitted and the decorative hook is a thoughtful addition and I think that the funnel-top will be appreciated by the new owner. It is an attractive feeder and the hummers should be happy to use it.

I have two feeders, the other isn't used by the birds. I saw them go to it when I first put it out, but I think the water was too hot and they never went back. This one they use everyday. I sit out in the morning with my coffee and watch the birds and the squirrels. I love it.
This feeder was easy to put together and fill. The parts that look brass are actually plastic, but they are threaded and well made. Everything fits together nicely, It hangs straight and secure. It's really pretty, much more so than I expected. I'm going to get the other shape by the same manufacturer because I enjoy this one so much. I'm glad I got it. It is worth the money.
