I purchased this and received it last night. I cleaned the window thoroughly, adhered the suction cup and filled the feeder. It fell within a 1/2 hour and smashed on the pool deck. Although very attractive it didn't last long. :)

I wanted a small, attractive hummingbird feeder for my window. We live in an apartment above a store front, so I was unsure if any birds would visit our feeder. I set it up on our back window - which faces a parking lot and so I thought our only hope was a large tree about fifty feet away from our window. AND we have a window unit a/c, which I thought would deter any birds as well.

Within a week we already had a female visiting our feeder a few times a day! A month or two later we had multiple hummers visiting about every 10-20 minutes :)

The only downside is the small size of the feeder, so the (multiple) birds drink about a third of it in a day sometimes. Then I have to refill it because the smaller hummers can't reach the food inside. Overall, I don't mind this because I like to look of the feeder, and then the food can stay fresh.
If you are concerned about birds finding it, I would suggest starting with the Red Crackle happy hummer feeder, because hummingbirds are attracted to red. Then consider adding other colors later!

P.S. I also leave a few drops of water on the suction cup we reattaching it to the window, this seems to help it seal better. And then try to push the seal flat.

Loved the hummingbird feeders! Kept one, gave one to a friend . . .and we are all enjoying them!
